| Living Stereo SACD's are a comin I heard that multichannel would be the format, but only the three front channels would be active. I have some multichannel discs which use only four channels (no center front) because that is the way the masters were done for quad tape in the 70's... | |

| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Sean...Those JBL 1500 seem to work well in my sealed enclosures, but then they are 7.5 cubic feet. How would I know that these drivers are designed for vented use, other than the FS = 24 which is higher than some but still well below the typical 1... | |
| Caribbean Music Recommendations Since we are talking about steel drum music, most people know it came from Trinidad, (or one of those islands) but the reason it was invented is interesting. Slaves were not allowed to have musical instruments, but the urge to make music could not... | |
| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Sean..What no 30 inch EV30W? Back in the old days one would install one of these monsters in the ceiling, vented to the attic. Hartley 18 inchers were second best.If you are looking for 15" subwoofers, check out the JBL SUB 1500 drivers that Parts... | |

| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Sean...Those small drivers with big voice coils wouldn't be Dynaudio by any chance. I have a set of Dynaudio MTM boxes with 5inch "woofers" that have 3inch voice coils. They bark furiously, but no bite. Very nice close up in a small room.Size matt... | |
| Simple fix for the scd 777es "no disc" message? On a Denon 2900, when I play one type of disc (CD, SACD, DVD-A) following another of a different type I sometimes get a hangup, and a "No Disc" message.. It's as if the player was still looking for the prior type of disc. (This NEVER occurs with m... | |
