    Yes Dave, it's time to raise the issue again

    As I have already said, I have no idea. The problem is far deeper than gun control. The only way that gun control would accomplish anything is to eliminate all of the private guns in the country. For obvious reasons, this is not possible.

    Sure, they definitely do, but as far as I am concerned, that is a military compound and should be guarded as such.

    Yes Dave, it's time to raise the issue again

    Secret service guarding the presidents kids carry assault rifles? Somehow, I doubt it. Either way, I think you're right that banning those weapons is kind of pointless and won't accomplish much.

    Yes Dave, it's time to raise the issue again

    You do have the option to have the same protection as the president, you just have to pay for it. I'd bet that you could pay off duty police to follow your family around 24/7 if you wanted to. The president and his family have it by default because like I said, they are obviously a target.

    Marantz sr7005 or av7005

    SR7005 and AV7005 are the basically exact same thing. Might as well get the SR for basically the same price and have backup and/or extra amplification if it was ever needed. The Denon 4311 has XT32 which would be a big improvement if you have 2 subs.

    Yes Dave, it's time to raise the issue again

    Like it or not, you're not equal. He is a target. You aren't. That is a big difference. Teachers sign up to teach, not to be body guards. I very highly doubt that many teachers will feel very good about having to receive arms and combat training. I am not necessarily for gun regulation...

    Yes Dave, it's time to raise the issue again

    While I agree with your sentiment, I don't think it is a valid argument. Do you really think that having access to automatic weapons would allow the general population to overtake the most powerful government and military in the world should the need arise? Personally, I don't think there is a...

    Exactly Why Vinyl Isn't The Future of Audiophilia

    Neither format nor portability is not the reason that music today is compressed.

    Exactly Why Vinyl Isn't The Future of Audiophilia

    Digital, even plain old red book format, has more dynamic range and broader frequency coverage than any vinyl combo. That is my only comment on the subject.

    Summits crossover

    I think the discussion really only comes down to one thing: every design has problems. To the point of the original topic, just try everything and see what works best for you and your room. ;-)

    Summits crossover

    I think that you're over simpifying it. I don't disagree that the sound changes moving the crossover around, but I don't know that what you're hearing is distortion differences or necessarily better or worse. Short of measuring it, I really don't know. I don't think that 40-100hz is going to...

    Summits crossover

    I think they're probably more accurate at sub 30hz and high spl for sure. The rest of the circumstances... I don't know. I would like to see graphs.

    Summits crossover

    I think it probably varies a lot from room to room depending on interaction as well as low frequency output capability of the speakers. It does pretty well in my combo. The bass response is much better both before and after EQ running that way in my room.

    Summits crossover

    In my room, I let my Summits play full range with my subwoofer. 3 bass sources in the room really helps to even out the response.

    ESL advice

    Getting them right will require proper placement and adequate power. Your receiver probably doesn't have sufficient current to power them, so you probably need to pursue an external amplifier. Placement should be about 5 feet from the wall, minimal toe in (search flash light toe in), and you...

    Issue with Summit Amp

    I replaced the whole amp. There are actually 2 amps in the chassis. However, I would suspect that the problem is not in the amp if both woofers are having the problem since they're both powered by their own discrete amplifier. There could be a problem in your primary amp that drives the...

    Issue with Summit Amp

    Does it have the same problem even with the speaker cables disconnected? Is it both woofers? I had to replace an amp in a summit - it is a quick and easy job. The part was reasonable cost, too, but then again this was a bit before ML went crazy with price increases.

    How good is your hearing?

    Looking at a FR graph of the grado 60i, it is -10db by 10k hz.

    How good is your hearing?

    Don't most headphones drop dead after like 10k hz anyway? Seems like this is a failed experiment with standard headphones.

    Best sub under $1k to add to Spire/Theater i setup?

    Call it what you want, but it is reality. A sub that is rolled off at 30hz has serious limitations. This may work OK for someone who only listens to music, but is not acceptable performance for theater. edit: I am not trying to be a jerk, just posting my opinion of what sub performance...
