Recommended amp to drive Paradigm speakers
I just sold mine and moved up the Belles line but the 150a hot rod is more than you might expect for 800. there is one 4sale now. 
What is an HDMI input?
Yup,hdmi and dvi are just for the newer HD tv's. Dvi is video only; hdmi is video and audio in one cable. The objective is to keep the signal digital from source to display.That means you must have a dig. tv. 
MHT200 progressive scan video switching problem
I'm just guessing here as I had a projector that had the same problem. The proj. was Sim2 300. When I made the change you refer to; I had the same result. I believe it to be the scanning frequency---Something to do with not recognizing the dif bet... 
what subs for merlin vsm-mx
Hi David; Sold the speakers I bought from you and got the Wilson Sophias. What I can't understand is how both speakers,on paper, would appear to go down to about the same figure + or _ a few hrtz. I gave all kinds of thought to picking up a sub wh... 
Would you buy speakers with out first listening ?
Having owned 5 speakers just this year,alone I felt this as a learning process. I think one speaker sets you up for the next. My downfall started when I bought the Lowther single driver system. It made me aware of how bad the mid/upper mid in my M... 
Anyone have experience with "Signal Cable" Cables?
Honestly; anybody here for a long time either isn't bothered by non specific/--or alternative answeres---- or doesn't read this type / thread.---I think part of the answer includes different opinions.---But,hey,that's just me. 
pre-amp with home theatre pass through
Sell your old one and pick up the RDL1 (used) 
Anyone have experience with "Signal Cable" Cables?
Having bought from Frank in the past I can say they are good for what you pay.Sure there is better for more money; everybody knows that. 
Home Theater intergrated with existing
I do 2ch and ht all in one room. I have a receiver for movies; cable or dvd. I run an outboard amp for my fronts.----So what I do is I have a pair of ic's running from pre-out of the receiver.---I have a second pair of ic's that come from my 2ch. ... 
Why does my system sound better??
Mt10425 is a funny guy. Maybe the reconnection process got rid of some gunk ???===Maybe you got a better posistioning job on the speakers second time around-- Or call the gohstbuster guys?? One more---If it sounds better unplugged think how much i... 
The best speaker you ever heard?
My answer this time;about 5 years later,would be for the best speakers I've owned.--You know,that which I can listen to every day, Wilson Sophia. These produce about twice as much music as the Merln MM's I just sold.---Yet on paper they both go do... 
Wilson Sophia
I guess this locking on will take a while for me 2. When seated and turning my head a bit the soundstage becomes disjointed. That never happened with the Merlins. This may be a non audiophile description but it's like I'm in a bubble;I turn my hea... 
SS amp rec. for driving Wilson Sophia??
Thanks, Schang. It's funny how reviewers pair "this" amp with "that" speaker. I did read the review of the Newforce 10lb'er. They paired it with puppy 6's--Go figure a 1k amp with 20k speakers??? Gotta be an odor of Denmark there.---or maybe not; ... 
Wilson Sophia
Thanks Junsan. Most will love it where I have to admit ----oops;forgot to take the bam out of the chain. Yes, once removed---getting chilly in here; almost goose bumps. Still have to do final leveling and get a touch closer on the positioning. 
"This Latest Digital Amp Is Great "
I'm in the process of looking for, and buying an amp for my new Sophias. Yep,read the claims on the evos and CH.I amps.---Seems I need to pay enough to satisfy my inner audiophool self.---Or hear one driving my speakers;without throwing away a cou...
