  1. SVSound
    New to this group. Would like know why svs speaker forum section separated from other speakers. Is SVS so special?
  2. System Setup and Connection
    I've asked the question before in other threads and have gotten a little advice, but I'm new to this and really need some more hand holding when it comes to buying splitters or how to make the connections. I currently have a cable box and ps4 hooked up to a receiver with hdmi. I have a Pioneer...
  3. REW Forum
    Hi All, I've spent a few hours researching this, but if the info is listed somewhere else, I apologize for missing it. I am a newbie with REW, and am planning on using it with one of Cross-Spectrum Labs calibrated mics. When calibrating REW via loopback, my setup deviates from what is covered...

    I'm fairly new to this level of HT and I'm in the very early stages of planning a future build but would like some opinions from people with a lot more knowledge than me for doing further research. (Apologies in advance if any of my questions seem daft) As of right now I'm planning a Marantz...
  5. REW Forum
    If I set the "IR window" so that it starts to the right of the main impulse response, say from 300ms out to 1s, would the resulting FR plot show only the room's response (i.e.,minus the direct response)? Could that plot then be used to easily see what room treatment is required (Bass trap...
  6. Electronic Processing/Equalization Devices
    Hello. I'd like to understand from those with experience when it is better to use DSP at the source and when to use an equalizer? My system is made of a very old laptop running Win XP, JRiver 19, files are externally stored in a HDD. The computer is the only source I use. After the laptop...

    Xbox One & Xbox 360 cross-gen games have separate achievements Xbox One and Xbox 360 cross-gen titles will have separate achievements, so all of the cheevo-hunters out there can get more score by completing both versions of the same game if they really, really want to...
  8. REW Forum
    Hello, until now, I have measured my 2.1 Setup as a whole and then generated a corrected .wav to put into Foobar's convolver (e.g. "yet another convolver"). Now I'd like to to this for right and left channels separately. But how do I realize this, after having measured both channels on its own...

  10. Home Theater Receivers | Processors | Amps
    I have recently purchased a Marantz SR5007 which replaced a Harmon Kardon AVR325 (which I purchased about 9 years ago). I only replaced the HK because of the lack of video processing and the lack of HDMI connections. So I have been playing with the settings on the SR5007 and I think I have it...
  11. Home Audio Speakers
    For my dedicated home theater, I'm planning on going with Klipsch RF-62II for my LCR speakers and a Denon 4520 AVR. I keep reading about how "efficient" Klipsch speakers are and a dedicated amp isn't necessary. But I also read that most people have a dedicated amp for their LCR. Will I need a...
  12. REW Forum
    This is my first post. I have been reading everyone's information and it is a great help. Although I have not actually set everything up yet, I like to research and learn as much as possible before tackling a project. I am adding a BFD and an external amp with bass shakers to my home theater. I...

  14. Home Theater System Recommendations
    Given a 130w x 2 20hz-20khz rated AV 7ch receiver, do you guys believe performance would improve using a 100w x 7 20hz-20khz rated separate amp using preouts? I know most amp builders are offering 125w or 200w/ch in multi-channel amps, but is the add'l 25w worth the cost? Another question, is...
  15. DIY Speakers
    In most consumer products you get a function of value per dollar having a high slope at the bottom of the price range (much more value per dollar for every more dollar spent on the margin) to a point of inflection where the marginal dollar buys less and less until it comes to the luxury level...
  16. Blu-ray | DVD | Disc Media Players
    Kind of holding back buying a HD player while battle smoke is still in the air on this HD DVD and Blueray war. So, if I go for HD DVD or Blueray which brand and model is best in its class?any help will be appreciated..
  17. Remotes | Cables | Accessories | Tweaks
    Does anyone have experience wiring a new home with a dedicated home theatre room? I have heard it's best to put the HT room on it's own circuit -- does that mean you still have one meter box, but two separate fuse boxes? Or two meter boxes? Or a single meter/fuse box, but run the electricals...
  18. Two Channel Audio
    anybody have any experience whether the pre-amp/tuner combo Anthem TLP-1 sound worse than say a Rotel RC1070 + RT1080? or which is better Anthem or Rotel?
  19. Two Channel Audio
    Just curious if people out there have a different set of speakers for their two channel listening? I built a couple of speakers for that purpose, but was curious what other people have done or will do. JCD
