Done? Never!Jp1208,So you are using two subs with the 936's? The 936 alone would not give a decent bass response? Will the 926/936 go below 30Hz without the employment of subwoofers? Since you mentione... posted over 18 years ago | View comment | |
Done? Never!Thanks for the insight Ben. Looks like the Electra 926 is the more musical speaker here. One more question if you don't mind. Have you heard the JM Labs Mezzo Utopia? If you have, do you feel it's ... posted over 18 years ago | View comment | |
Done? Never!Bearotti,May you describe briefly how the JM Labs Electra 926 compare to the B&W 804S driven by the Classe amp? I know listening preferences will dictate which suits you best, but which spe... posted over 18 years ago | View comment | |

Man, it's sounding goodHi Mike, Thanks for chiming in. Prior to posting a question here, I have searched the archives and found that you are the only one who have bought the Duke's and used them for your rears. S... posted almost 19 years ago | View comment | |

Serenity Now... (latest revision)Great system you've got there. I particularly like the Dynaudio C2's. These are really classy statement speakers. If you are still using the Plinius CD-LAD as a preamp, believe me, it's you... posted almost 19 years ago | View comment | |
B&W Media RoomI was doing a search for the Sony PS3 and stumbled upon your system page. My intention is similiar to Mitch4t. I was curious if the PS3's performance in blu-ray can compete with standalone blu-ray ... posted about 19 years ago | View comment | |
Simply MagicHi Cmk,Thanks for your response. Yes I am well aware that too much bass boom is not a good thing. Although I am quite keen to push the sub to the middle in between the speakers, I don't qui... posted about 19 years ago | View comment | |
Simply MagicJust out of curiosity, did you use an SPL meter to calibrate the levels of your subwoofer? Or the Cabasse Thor sub is intended to be placed in the middle alongside the Baltics? The Baltics are only... posted about 19 years ago | View comment | |
The Underground SystemI particularly like your choice of electronics and speakers. I am familiar with B&W speakers and the CDM 9NT was once in my shortlist. It's good that you've paid more attention to the front end com... posted about 19 years ago | View comment | |
Mike Lavigne's SystemThe responses my Loxodrome are uncalled for. Personally if I were Mike, I wouldn't even bother responding. It's just a waste of time and effort. posted over 19 years ago | View comment | |
Mike Lavigne's SystemHi Mike,In one of your old threads, you have mentioned that the Placette RVC had outperformed 6-7 active preamps costing $10-15k. Is the RVC an unbalanced or balanced unit? Do you think the... posted over 19 years ago | View comment | |
Simply MagicCMK, Thanks for your response. The purchase of the Denon 3930CI is inevitable since I need a better DVD player to replace my cheapo Sony mainly to obtain a better pic quality. Although I am not... posted over 19 years ago | View comment | |
Simply MagicHi Cmk,Would you say the Denon A-11 as a transport is almost comparable, or better than the CEC TL-2? I have the TL-5100 and have plans of upgrading to the TL-2 but was also considering the... posted over 19 years ago | View comment | |

Ever Evolving!Tony, Good to hear power is not an issue with your OB1's. Most PMC speakers can go really loud and rock the house, especially FB1+'s and above. I've got the LB1 Signatures which was the... posted over 19 years ago | View comment | |
