| McIntosh MCD205: Noise issues? Thanks Theo. I'm actually considering sending this one back since it does come with a 2 week guarantee, and I paid what the market would consider "full price". | |
| Gemme Audio - Out of business? Sorry to hear about your experience Tmsorosk. I'm surprised you experienced continuous breakdowns since the Tanto's drivers and arrangement are as simple as they come. (no crossovers, one cap for the tweeter, and pretty basic driver units.) What w... | |
| Gemme Audio - Out of business? Thanks for the replies guys.Doug, it's funny you mention the slabs. I just took them off some 5" thick Vermont granite I found as part of a large landfill project. That solved the stability problem, but raised the speakers much higher than they we... | |

| does a subwoofer kill stereo sound? In response to the original poster, a subwoofer has a pretty simple job to do...play frequencies in the 100 to 20Hz (or lower) range.It's apparent you want more bass. Provided your bookshelves are capable of playing down to 80Hz or so, and you cro... | |
| Need your comments on Rythmik subs and others I second the suggestion on the SVS SB12+. I had a pair of them and sold them to "upgrade" to a pair of ULS-15's. I've regretted the swap ever since. While the ULS-15's go lower, and louder, they can't match the SB12's smooth, quick, and musical pr... |
