In a world where people are quick to complain with the expectation that their whining will quickly be pacified, I wanted to give a specific kudos to a member at Martin Logan. Melodie, although she probably does not realize it, has helped me several times with minor issues over the years. She is...

Just wanted to share this link with everyone. I was just doing some reading about Prodigy's when there it was-a write up disclosing where the ML low range comes from. I have personally called ML to find out who makes there subs and they decline to disclose that info. Maybe this will help...

So I am in the mood to get a couple new very musical holiday CD's. I am interested in instrumentals and vocal renditions of the standard holiday traditions. What would really be nice is a very full professional chior or something of the sort that is accompanied by an ochestra. Any...

Hi guys, I have the itch again! I am looking for a high end amp or pre amp kit that is complete. I dont want to get into any design needs other than the physical construction of the amp housing. Does anyone know of a copy cat amp kit that is out there? I am willing to spend a chunk of money...

I know that McIntosh has a cult like following here so I thought I would share this as it progresses. I sold my theater i to redo my car stereo with McIntosh gear. Everything will be Mac in the end except for the sub woofer since they no longer produce them. Anyway, here are a few beginning...

I have been interested in vinyl lately and was thinking of spending a few hundred on a beginners set up. Do you all have any recommendations of a good starter unit that still sounds decent? I would really like to buy a nice vintage piece that produces good sound if possible. And the needle...

Since silver is the ultimate conductor, I have been trying to find reasonably priced silver interconnects to compare against copper. I would be interested in speaker cables eventually if I liked the silver, but one step at a time you know! Anyway, I can't find anyone that sells silver cable at...

I have been trying to find the details on other threads but I am wanting to know specifically what the differences are? As far as I can tell, the panels are different and the crossover is different. Is this correct? Is that all that is different. I would like to know about every detail...

The poll is: Where do you traditionally leave your volume knob on your standard Descent if you own one, or two, or more. This is the actual knob on the sub. If you operate the sub controls through a processor, that is fine, just post where you leave the knob on the sub itself. Please do not...

My father in law recently bought a pair of ML's and is trying to finish his HT room. We bought a JL 12W7 and made a box to specs ourselves. The problem is that the 1000 watt Dayton Amplifier goes into protect mode frequently when a large bass feed is given to it. I just think the speaker needs...

http://emotiva.com/xpa1.shtm Anyone heard of or had experience with this brand? I was talking with a local audiophile I just met and he said for the money that he loved this brand of amplifiers. I am wondering if they supply the much needed current that so many members have posted about here...

I recently went to an Audi Q5 launch and had the privilage of sitting through a B&O lecture mixed with some listening. The listening was guided by instruction on what to listen for. Very nice class. We were using the Beolab 9's in a very large room with 20+ foot ceilings. All in all I left...

So I am finishing my basement and trying to figure out the best dimensions for the dedicated theater room. The space I have as of right now is 25' 2'' by 15' 6'' which I am thinking is a bit longer than optimal dimensions. I can shorten the 25' 2'' by any amount, but what would match the 15'...

Recently, I have been very intrigued by the idea of a plasma tweeter/speaker. If you have never seen one, look it up on youtube. They are fascinating. Anyway, I was trying to find some sort of rough DIY guide to create a crude model of one. Crude, but still working!lol Does anyone know of a...

I have been looking for some time to pursue an EE degree, but with working full time, it is truly not feasable. ??????????????Does anyone know of an online EE program??????????????? I realize this is a very hands on sort of curriculum, but I would like to at the very least get started. I...

Can anyone recommend an hdmi cable under 100 bucks? I will go used. I found the audioquest hdmi-x...any comments from users? Should I just get the hdmi-3? I wouldn't think that it could make that much difference between the two? If I am buying the cable, I would at least like to get an obvious...

I just bought this remote and was wondering if anyone out there has it? What are your thoughts...likes/dislikes about this remote? Thanks, Dominick

I have been looking for a nice black leather Tumi laptop briefcase for a while now, but its been tough. I was just wondering if anyone on this forum might have one that they are not using. I would pay for it of course. Thanks, Dominick
