From what i've been able to find out, It seems that RG59 is preferred to RG6 in audio applications due to it's copper center conductor and braiding...If that makes any sense :p. In any case, I'd like to clarify that I will not be using this for speaker wire since the Purity Loudspeaker is...

Hey Everyone, I recently replaced my Purities with Vantages and ended moving the Purities to the rear for surround duty. Im going to end up needing about a 25ft line-level connection run to each speaker and figured that using RG6 would end up being the most cost-effective solution. Any...

***update!*** Hey everyone! I finally made a decision and I feel compelled to share it with others :D. I initially intended to upgrade from dual Abyss subs to a Descent-I But, thanks to some very helpful suggestions I've decided to dig a little deeper and go for something more "transformative."...

My Uncle owns a Descent I that he has been hinting at selling. He apparently wants to "condense" his current setup and may be willing to sell for half of what he paid. Unfortunately, he isn't even in the same state, so i have yet to actually hear it for myself. Otherwise I'd just borrow it to...

These were my thoughts exactly. I guess i should have specified that this will be strictly for HT... sorry i left that out. If my understanding of AVR bass management is correct, then the Abyss's would NEVER be playing the same content as the Descent. The Abyss's would solely handle the low...

The only problem i have with running the Descent on it's own is that i already own everything else, and would prefer to not have to sell them if they can be used to help. Also, how does my setup differ at all from the recommended setup form my Martin Logan owners manual? (with exception that my...

Hey Everyone, A few months back I made a thread about potentially replacing my dual Abyss's with A single Descent I. Well, with the addition of an Audyssey MultEQ equipped receiver I was able to make some significant improvements...But i still want MORE!!!! I am now able to pick up a Descent I...

Problem solved! Who woulda thought that my solution would've been an Audyssey DSX-equipped AVR (onkyo 807). I picked it up yesterday and dove straight into the MultEQ setup and needless to say I couldn't be happier with the results. While I expected everything to improve I was completely...

Update! Well I finally decided to go ahead and pickup a radioshack spl meter(dunno why it took so long:duh:) Anyhow, according to the spl meter; there IS measurable output down to about 18hz. Problem is that from my listening position there really isn't anything remotely usable below 30hz or...

Thnx for the quick reponses guys:bowdown: I've definitely thought about upgrading the entire front stage along with adding the Descent I. But honestly at my level of development, i have yet to acquire "the ears" to fully appreciate it...not to mention the finances or space :D. I just figured...

Hey Everyone, I've been contemplating replacing my dual abyss setup with a single Descent i. While I am extremely pleased with my abyss setup as far as music is concerned; they seem to be lacking the authority below 30hz that i would like for my HT. I guess I am shooting for something with more...
