Thanks in advance for any help! First I am a neofiite at best with this equipment. We had a home theater system installed 12 years ago. It consisted of a receiver, DVD player and speakers. Also had a older VHS tape player/recorder hooked to it. Used for audio and DirecTV. The system consisted...

Hello all, My name is Garth and I probably know just enough about REW to be dangerous. I’ve spent a good portion of the day generating ~25 frequency sweeps trying to optimize my new subwoofer integration with my main speakers for 2 channel audio. My sub is a Rythmik E15HP so many of the sweeps...

Hi, I'm new to these forums, and I'm looking for a subwoofer to complete my 2.1 system. I live in a small studio apartment, the main listening room is 13' x 12'. I'll be using a Nuforce Dia desktop DAC (24 watts/channel max) with 2 Cambridge Audio Minx Mini 10's. The Dia allows me to listen to...

Hello, I a couple of days hopefully my new sub will arrive finally. I am looking to build a enclosure for it. It is an Sundown audio e8 v4 sub. The sub will be placed in my room which is quite small and I will use the sub for both music and movies, so I would like it to go pretty low if that is...

I've been running some white van loudspeakers (DigitalAudio Cinema Series II) since around 2002. They're rated at 400 watts @ 8ohms, and 90db. I believe the ratings are per-speaker, as it's what is stated on each casing. I am trying to replicate the sound & bass quality I previously achieved...

As many in this forum, I am in search of the best sounding audio I can achieve within financial reason – 80% solution at 20% cost. I have used room absorbers and EQ’ed the room in which I will be the only listener – and am almost there. As this is probably a perpetual process, the advancements...
