| need help with a subwoofer I had the same problem with a REL dealer I had access to (Tweeter, about 2.5 hours away). Not nice people. I called Sumiko to verify that I had to purchase from a local dealer and they said no. The long explanation was that dealers themselves didn... | |
| Oh, crap. I wouldn't worry about it since you paid by credit card. Just make sure to sign and return their piece of paper the day after you get it and you'll win. I would actually just call them and they'll credit you the whole amount plus interest immediat... | |
| Power strip manufacturers? Jab, I didn't see a VansEvers power strip. I saw one that does surge suppression but I'm looking for just some outlets.Dbwl, isn't the HTS 2000 a whole line conditioning, surge suppression system?I forgot to mention that I didn't want the piece to... | |
| Voltage stabilizer for big amps?? Hey. I use APC Line-R line conditioners and am very happy. The 1250 is about $50 on eBay. It's a cheap way to see if it would fix your problem if nothing else. I noticed only positve effects from them. I know they're not audio-grade but APC has be... | |
| BEST SUB FOR MUSIC Like a lot of people have said, REL ST. I use a Strata III but your room will probably want something bigger. I would highly recommend a III series over a II. | |
| Furniture-grade cd storage I may get a laugh but I bought mine from BMG (www.bmgmusicservice.com). They used to have a 500, a 1000, and a 1500. I paid either $125 or $150 for the 1000. The black oak matches my black oak Thiels exactly. I used an IKEA dresser mounting strap ... | |
| Power cord recommendation for REL Strata III? That's a good enough explanation for me. :-) I didn't believe the power cord made a difference until I plugged the computer-grade cord in. It made a whole lot of difference... all bad. I tried moving speakers, subs, and equiment around. I made sur... | |
| Power cord recommendation for REL Strata III? Sugarbrie, I was wondering the same thing. Why 2m or longer? Thanks! leo. | |
| Different sensitivity speakers in HT Sean, Greg, indeed I am using a Radio Shack SPL meter (the analog one). After I do the setup and get the correct readings the SCSs still sound louder. I have to lower the surround volume another notch or two before it sounds right. Sean, you menti... | |
| Hiss, hum bad for speakers? I have a REL Strata III hooked to a Rotel RTC-965 preamp and an Adcom 7400 amp using both high and low level connections. I also have a (quiet) hiss. However mine is actually originating from the preamp. The only reason I say this is because you m... | |
| Best 20A IEC power cord I guess Mrchips missed the class on business professionalism. Emotional touchiness isn't pretty, eh?Either way, I don't own the equipment for a >$400 PC but I can promise I wouldn't buy a Pure Note or BMI after reading this thread regardless of... | |
| Top 5 cd recordings of all time? I'd have to agree with the Pink Floyd recommendation. After upgrading my speakers to Thiel 1.5s I was listening to everything I own "for the first time" again. What I found was that all later Pink Floyd was the best produced/recorded music I owned. | |
| Better Cables.com Every cable I have is BetterCables.com (except for the power cords). The Silver Serpent S-Video is truly striking (I A/B'ed the regular with the Silver and it was a huge improvement). Far better than _any_ other cable I've seen. I use the ICs (non... |
