    Looking for some advice on selecting not just a remote that'll control the living room HT system (6 components - TV, BDP, AVR, Cable Box, and a couple of gaming consoles - pretty simple), but will also be good for lighting and other plug-in devices around the home. Would prefer WiFi or RF...

    Principles of Mechanical Isolation and Mass-Coupling To Control Vibration In A/V Systems Cones, dots, blocks of maple, blocks of marble, magnets, ball bearings. Do they isolate? Do they couple? Do they help? Are they a waste of time and money? It is up to us as A/V consumers to use our...

    Discovered today that BGW amps seem to be a pretty good bargain in certain used-gear arenas. So much so that in terms of $/watt, I'd almost be foolish NOT to grab one (or two or six). So, anyone have any experience with BGW? Favorite models, things to avoid, or general thoughts?

    (How) can I use REW to measure big venue systems? Systems where the direct sound may have a flight time of ~100ms and ETC of several seconds? Are there any special steps/modifications I need made to make this work? It seems I have to increase the IR windows, as ETC is not down to -60dB within...

    Frank Van Alstine has finally released (or taking orders for builds) his second revision of the ABX Switch box, which is suppose to be the king daddy of ABX switching. It sure looks promising.
