    Great cheap tweak

    Summits have a built in amp, dont they? Could it be that in this case a better linecord is beneficial due to the somewhat higher current demand of the Summit compared to a 'passive' ESL/hybrid like the reQuests? T-

    two possible dumb questions

    Is he referring to a tube amp with multiple taps on the output transformer? Tj-

    Grotto Vs Depth Question

    You must be referring to my 2001 Dodge Ram 4x4. Damn near bent the driver's side floor boards right down to the frame trying to eek more out of the gas pedal. You'd think that someone who spends as much time in NJ/NY commuter traffic would dream up something better than the little Mopar 318...

    Grotto Vs Depth Question

    From time to time someone will question as to whether a particular sub is 'overkill' for their system, but I think the scenario only works in reverse. If your subwoofer is under-spec'd for your system and the gain is all the way up (from what I hear, they go to eleven), there isnt much you can...

    Projector mounting question

    At quick glance it seems like a good idea based on common sense, but it's not something that translates to a real benefit in the actual application. Your projector puts out a certain amount of light (which is all generated by the lamp) and as long as you are within the throw distance/min max...

    Projector mounting question

    Should have made note of that in my first post. Most newer projectors assume a mounting position approx even with screen top and centered, projector level. Lens shift is a feature that greatly simplified projector setup and contributes to an overall better image than one corrected from an...

    Projector mounting question

    Back in the days before projectors had the nifty zoom feature, the mounting location was determined by figuring the throw distance for a certain screen size (usually width as opposed to diagonal measurement), which usually gave you a mount location +/- a few inches, depending on your particular...

    Torn between TWO lovers

    Every once and a while, you hear of someone who steps into a *deal*, but these are the exception, not the rule. For most of us, it takes considerable shopping and careful spending to swap gear. Personally, I'd look for a unit locally that I could try out, unless of couse you are dealing with a...

    Torn between TWO lovers

    Does anyone know if the KPS25 on ebay was a legitimate auction? At any given point I would bet at least HALF of anything listed on ebay under 'Krell' should be approached with caution. I'd like a KPS25 myself, but havent seen one on Agon go for that little. If it sounds as if I'm a bit...

    The musicophile v. the audiophile

    I would probably be both....there are times when its fun to try out new gear or just sit and search the Agon listings, at other times I want to hear the music no matter what the source (comes from working long hours alone). While I worship my ML's and Krell amps, my wife gave me a iPod...

    Dreamer's New Preamp...

    Nice piece of equipment, and even better if you struck a deal on the used market. Sure is built solidly, isnt it? Tj

    Yosemite on a motorcycle.

    Heres a shot of the bike sitting at the builders shop.....from this point you get a better idea of the height of the apes. Forgot to mention that the only HD part on the bike is the front rim (!), which was relaced with custom spokes and an aftermarket hub. The frame is from Sundance, which is...

    Yosemite on a motorcycle.

    The bike was built at a local shop; they do all of the maintenence including cleaning and detailing for area shows and ride-ins. Nice for jetting around town but I doubt it would afford much comfort on a trip to Yosemite....the K&N 18" apes put you in an awkward stance but it makes for a wild...

    Aeruis & Marantz 125w Monoblocks

    Cant comment on the Aerius, but I ran reQuests with MA500's for a few years with good results. The Marantz amps were a good value for the money. Tj

    most expensive?

    It sounds like this: Customer: "Hello, I have a million dollars to spend on a set of speakers. I dont care how big or disgustingly ugly they are, as long as they cost a million dollars. Can you help me?" Hi-end retailer replies, "YES, SIR!"

    Your thoughts and opinions requested

    That was one feature that helped solidify my decision to purchase the CB....at the time HDMI-3 had not yet been implemented but Theta already had a card in the works. I was concerned with keeping hardware current with the latest standards (and the dreaded HDCP that tags along). Right after...
