How Much Power is Enough?
Your speaker are probably some of the best. From what I know, PMC's demand fairly high power to get the most of out them. I'd suggest you contact PMC, get the name of one of their reps and pose this question to them. Of course, your dealer may hav... 
Help me chose a new SU B
VELODYNE 4 SURE. See if you can't trial one from a dealer near and you'll see why. The SPL is a great series. Bass notes are NOTES not thumps. It will blend into your system and your room using the included EQ. Give the Digital Drive series some s... 
Home Theater help?
Check out the Yamaha 2700. I just installed one in place of an Anthem AVM-20 ver2.x If your thinking 'step-down' think again. I won't comment on its amplifier section yet as I'm not using that - only because I haven't had time to put my Citation's... 
I want to change from 2 channel to HT but what....
I moved from a 507 to an Anthem AVM20. It cost me 1,700. I paired it with two Citation 7.1 amps (cost of 1,800 for 8 channels of amazing 150 watt power), four channels each. Very satisfied with the move, a big step up in sound. The Anthem has a be...

HarmanKardon, Yamaha or Denon
If Home Theater is the focus, Yamaha has killer proprietary processors that are hard to beat. Waiting just a bit for the purchase will get you HDMI switching as well, extreamly usefull if coupling with a Sat receiver and DVD player both having DVI... 
Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo
I'm no professor but it seems to me you can't 'miss' any of the bass if you've summed the two channels through the sub. Its all there, how can you 'miss' any? Has anyone really compared two subs run in stereo to two subs daisey chained together? A... 
Better AM reception.... any ideas?
Thanks all... 
Isolated or dedicated lines for audio ?
Where is a good source for cryo'd wiring? Solid or stranded, whis is better for this use. So far the only place I've found is JPS labs at 1.50 per foot each. If you make two 20amp runs, any harm in having a common ground for both outlets? Grounds ... 
If Audio bug never hit you, what hobby might have?
I'd get to drive a new car! After 7 cars in 8 years I've had the same one for 4 years now and it's 12 years old! And... I might even have a few more mounts on the wall. 
I want profoundly better bass
I'm going to say it anyway... perhaps you can audition a Velodyne Digital Drive series sub with the room equalization sofware and have it professionally set up so as to obtain the best results. The software really does work and may just tame what ... 
Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo
GREAT... so glad you obtain the 15" driver. Simple math tells you it's 50 percent larger, which as Yogi would say, is a lot! Anyway if you stumble on the set up, e-mail me. I'm no installer but... Enjoy! 
Which is the better Subwoofer?
I'd find a Digital Drive series used and the biggest I could afford. It's software WILL allow it to blend into any room you put it in and will sound just the way it should. I've owned two and have the 18" one now in a room 22x20 or so with one wal... 
Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo
I just found this on the Anthem website...Q20: I have two subwoofers and want to use them in stereo. Can the surround preamp's subwoofer outputs run in stereo? A: No, although the same job can be done by disabling the sub channel in the setup menu... 
Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo
My understanding is low frequency is basically non-directional so I'm wondering what the point is to use it in stereo? I know the sound stage created in my system has plenty of low end response and the low end seems to come from within the soundst...
