In the absence of decent RCA audio cables to connect a device (e.g. CD player) to an amp, could you use digital coax cables? If so what effect on the quality of the signal is likely?

I am upgrading my home theater equipment. I found this site while searching Google for a review on the Denon AVR-4520 which I am considering purchasing. I already have a Denon AVR-3312, which I am very happy with, in my family room and so I am considering Denon again for the theater. I have...

Unfortunately I don't have the space to build a dedicated HT room so I have to make some compromises. I have never owned a projector so I am not 100% sure what to expect and I am looking for design/planning feedback. My main requirements are to be able to use this room for both HT and as a...

This seems like something I should intuitively know, but I am having a hard time understanding the virtues of dual voice coil drivers. Does it have to do with multiple driver setups, versatility, or something completely different?

Hi, I bought the fbq2496 yesterday. now, what i recogniced is that : (hard to explain, stay with me (; ) if i play a song where a constant 25 Hz tone is played in the background with NO EQUALIZION APPLIED (or bypas mode) the tone/excursion of the membrane/signal light on the ep2500 is like...

Hey all I don't post very often, but read here daily. I am in the process of slowly putting together a home theater. First component into my house will be the subwoofer. While I save up for the other bits, the sub will become part of my very nice 2 channel rig. The speakers I am currently...

My system is pretty solid mid-fi level stuff but it works well for the living room. Currently it consists of Speakers: AV123 RS450, RSC200 and RSS300 (saving up to replace with a PSB Imagine system) Subs: Dual SVS PB13-Ultra's Receiver:Denon AVR-4306 Monitor: Samsung 50" Plasma Sources...

Sorry, bit of a noob question here, but what is the purpose of the internal baffling people put inside their sub boxes? What benefit does it have over just simple bracing? How to people know the proper design of the inside of the box if the sub does not come with a enclosure diagram? Thanks

Hi: A bit of a dumb question, but why is there two rca inputs (left and right) on my sub ( 20-39 PC+)? I only use one of them (left) coming from a single sub-out on my a/v receiver! Do some receivers have left and right sub-outs? Why do I need two inputs for a single-driver sub? Give me some...

I never understood the connection between the RS spl meter and the calibrated mics with use in REW. It is my understanding that even with a calibrated mic, you will still need the SPL meter. What purpose will it serve?
