2-channel (and possibly DIY) nuts - can anyone identify this speaker? It's not my photo, but I came across it while sorting some old files and remember trying to figure out what it was. I'm not even sure it's a commercial speaker. The soft dome mids and tweeter remind me of the older A/D/S/...

Hello, first post! I've been reading a lot through this forum, and am looking for some hopefully simple answers. I am about to buy an UMIK-1, as it seems to be the easiest solution. I have a laptop with HDMI out, and would like to eq my room for each of my 7 channels and my subwoofer. Is the...

Looking over the current crop of Yamaha receivers is seems like they are all right around 100 wpc with changes generally in features. The new Advantage line have squeezed out a little more juice w/ a bit lower distortion, but not as good as some of the past models. Other than the Advantage line...

I was playing with my spl meter and since nobody is home, I figured I'd see how loud my setup is. Listening to Led Zeppelin's Coda, I can get between 100 and 105 in two channel. What sort of levels can others get? List equipment, source material, room size, etc. In my truck, I can't get a max...

Hello, this is my first post here and just thought I'd say "hi" while I'm at it, so... Hi! :wave: Does the cooling fan in the EP1500/2500 amps run all the time or only when needed? The reason I ask is because my Crown XTi 1000 (which pulls LFE duty) has a cooling fan that is completely off...
