    Music Enjoyment to Gear Obsession Ratio

    The other day I set up a play list and started listening. Only really what I was doing was researching external DACs and trying to nit pick my setup to make it sound 'better'. After about a half hour I realized I didn't really even remember what I had heard. My goal for 2010: Enjoy music...

    Subwoofer Placement Question

    Ok, well I didn't end of doing that because of all of the good points made. The problem is that the fronts are in wall so I can't put them behind. I'm going to try to move the sub to the other side or something to keep the 2 components separate. I never knew that it'd make that much of a...

    Subwoofer Placement Question

    Ok, this is a stupid question and I'm sorry to have to ask it. I have a Paradigm sub and a Anthem PVA7 7 Channel amp. The amp is WAY to heavy for my glass shelving system which is weighted to hold 30 pounds. So, I put the amp on the floor on a little stand that I improvised. But now you...

    Placement options – Impacts of location, orientation and treatments

    I'll get a photo up soon. I tried to talk myself into rotating it but then everything would be in front of my windows. I just don't think I can do it. Do you guys sell bass traps? Where would I put them? I do have an area rug for under the coffee table. Should I put more? It's so tough...

    Photography Club!

    My camera of choice... I use a 1Ds Mk II since I'm actually a professional photographer but if I weren't and I wanted a kick ass camera I'd get a 30D. If I wanted a REALLY kick ass camera I'd get a 5D. Just remember to spend good money for the lens. Better to be using a 35mm 1.4L lens and a...

    Help! New ML System for new ML user

    My room is too small for the Summits I believe. It an area about 14x14 I think, but the place isn't built yet, so it's tough to visualize completely. Is is true that the Summits need some room to breathe? The maximum that I'd be able to pull off is putting them two feet from the rear wall and...

    Help! New ML System for new ML user

    I was hoping $8000 for everything. Here's what I'm considering right now: ML Vantage :: $5000 (can I get any used?) Anthem D1 :: $3500 (local demo unit) Anthem :: MCA-50 $1250 on Audiogon Does that seem like a decent setup for the time being? Anything I should change? You guys are a great...

    Help! New ML System for new ML user

    Budget is an interesting question. Really, I don't have much money, but I can always reallocate if I find something I love. I'm a small business owner, so there are always options. I'd really like to keep it under $8,000. As far as existing equipment, I have none whatsoever except for my...

    Help! New ML System for new ML user

    I am moving into a new place that isn't built yet and I'd like to put in a HT system. I auditioned a pair of ML Clarity and I loved them. Are there other speakers that I should look at in the ML line? My room is pretty small, so I did like the size of these, but please let me know if there's...
