| AC / DC - What are you using? Dissapointed by .... Power Wedge on Pre and CD player. Mono amps straight into the wall. | |
| Subwoofer setting I follow Kal's logic, but I would lean towards 80 or 50. 120 is way to easy to localize. I feel the lower the better unless you feel like you are missing something. Placement can also effect performance and volume. Placing speakers and sub equidis... | |
| What channels are heard in a comercial theater?? Mitch,It looks like your processor has L&R surround outputs and LR & RR surround outputs. I would scrap those front side axis speakers. They don't seem to be in your photos? Anyway, hook up your side speakers to the surround outputs. Add t... | |

| Center channel matched with Fronts?? Adding warm speakers to the rear or center will not fix your problem. It's like having 4 different tires on your car. Yeah it goes down the road, but it will never handle very well. The whole idea about surround sound is to create a seamless prese... | |
| Portland Cello Project - CD Release + shows Another chance to see the PCP. Yeah the Laura Gibson song Hands in Pockets is going somewhere. Haven't heard the Dandy Warhol tracks. I know Courtney from way back. Used to play in his band. Could have been a rock star, but went to college instead... | |
| 5.1Home Theatre/Music Speakers Search? Did you try the Gallo 3.1 Reference? Here is a small footprint speaker that won't have the limitations that concern you. When you look at speakers with conventional drivers like the Quads how much more performance can be squeezed out of the same o... | |
