that can happen from time to time when transferring compressed audio from device to device.

no. actually any enhancement from software will just take you further away from what the speakers sound like naturally. Which could make them sound better or worse, usually worse.

haha how much do those cabs weigh?

nice deal. One of the problems I had with the monitor 5's was the tweeters being super bright for the size of the speaker, does that happen with two of those on the SRS-2's?

haha I used to have a pair of the monitor 5's from polk (same high and mid-bass drivers) and they sounded fantastic I've seen the SRS-2's before and they only look so big because of the huge passive rads on them :P

snipped the pics but LOVE B&W setups. as I have a B&W setup of my own and love it. although I'd kill for an 800 series setup I'm running an old DM220 setup that kicks but is definitely nothing like that :)

I remember when this thread was about pics, and not about flaming pini's rig

nice wharfedales. I recently picked up a vintage set (E30)

sure those cables will be vista compatible? on a serious note though he's already got the cable so what you need to do is buy a few male to female RCA extension cables and label them accordingly so you don't mix things up

those plastic shock cases have been common for quite some time, the last four drives I've bought came like that (I buy at a local shop who's prices are comparable to newegg)

I still use my floppy! raid drivers :\

good point but he does have a 200mm fan blowing through them both haha.

definitely looks like he's using the flash there, so probably nothin' crazy

or in this case just put a small shelf above your monitors with the centre on a downward angle.

creative use of watercloset flanges.

jamo's are pretty decent speakers for the price.

a few posts up he shows the packaging they came in :P

doesn't look as stupid as it must sound, I highly doubt you're getting a decent range out of those drivers.

since the video signal is digital, you shouldn't have too much to worry about.

one sucks and the other blows

it adds nothing to an AV reciever as it looks like it's replacing the that POS kenwood.

bad adaptor maybe?

why not run the speaker wires under your chair mat instead of having them on the outside...

5 year old chenming here... as old as the computer I built into it.

some of the time makes sense, hell I pretty much push both pairs of my speakers to their clearity limits daily in terms of volume (which is pretty fucking loud as you can hear it throughout my apartment building) but it's not necessary all the time.

those aren't the largest speakers out there for one thing... and it's not always about blasting them as loud as they can go, sound quality goes a long way.

main listening: B&W DM220 mains Yamaha A720 Integrated amp (gettin' on 30 years old almost and still supplies loads of power) dbx DX-5 CD Player Technics SL-1700 Phono Computer Setup: Advent Legacy mains (these things provide some serious bass for some reason) Harman/Kardon AVR55 Reciever...

CDROM drives make shitty cdplayers though, why bother.

best bang for your $30 would be those altec's you mentioned in your first pic... dont expect crazy loud and clear sound though out of a 20w $30 set

hope you got a really good deal on those bose speakers then.

speaking of phase linear, I was very close to buying an old phase linear power amp with these sweet 3" analog VU's on the front, big 'ol 300w amp.... its still available but I can't afford it

those old marantz quad amps are sweet, so much power.

5.1 to listen to music 99% of the time? that seems a bit excessive to listen to stereo music channeled through 5 speakers.

the 604's are killer speakers, although I like the look of the original series and the S2's a lot more than the S3 look.

what fronts are those? they dont look B&W but with all that equipment it wouldn't make sense to have unmatched fronts.

it's true, sometimes more dedicated amps can make all the difference. I used to run my B&W DM220's off a harman kardon avr55 reciever (65w RMS in stereo mode) and it just didn't cut it for these speakers... Since I got the AVR55 I've been running an older Yamaha A720 Stereo integrated amp on...

that yamaha should have enough juice to push those klipsch's, they're relatively sensitive.

sarcastic doesn't work over the internet :P

cabinet pressure wouldn't be too bad on those ported cabs :P

to be honest with you I've got a lot of experience with speakers and I've never seen or heard of dust caps pulling themselves in, no matter how hard the driver was pushed with power.
