Overall,

Get off your seat and go to your friendly avshop to AUDITION!!

Reading it is different from HEARING it!

[kimpOy]

correct you are SLAYER,
above mention were theoretically speaking.
and only good, great to my ears.

kimp0y,

Kamusta setup pre? Kumpleto na ba? ;)

[kimpOy]

hindi pa,
kakatamad lumuwas pre,
pero meron na akong Receiver at DTX floorstanders which will be my rear

[mazdamazda]

kakatamad kasi!!! hehehe... pero sige, mag leave ako ng isang araw next week para pakinggan yang DTX...

so far, napakinggan ko pa lang lately is HK + MA (audio setup)... will go back this saturday for the HT setup... so far so good with the audio setup... parang nasa harap ko yung kumakanta... B2 is nice but the S2 is really good!

also heard MS, which I don't really like...

the Infinity Entra is also nice!!! almost bought this a few months ago...

[kimpOy]

audition is the key,
founded out that a tweaked/broken-in DTX Floorstanders
can be a par with branded entry level speakers.

the price was just a bonus. 3,800 a pair

[dayunyor]

Here's my HT setup

50" Samsung DLP Widescreen TV
Onkyo 701 6.1 Receiver
Pioneer 667A SACD DVD DVD-A Player
6 pcs Mission 74i series
300 Watts RMS Polk Audio Subz
Puresonic Cables and Wires

[Linkk]

anong receiver marerecommend niyo? its about time na upgrade ko na yung sa akin (Denon 2600G), tagal na sa akin to 1997 pa hehehe, sana yung kasing reliable.

[kimpOy]

depende sa budget and listening preference linkk
i bought my yamaha 440, kasi hanggang 15K lang ang budget ko
plus since 80% HT ako yun ang na ang kinuha ko, although ang ganda ng tunog ng harman kardon for music.

[truckman]

kimpoy,
tanong ko lang pare kung ano ang feedback o maco-comment mo sa YAMAHA RXV 440 recievers at YAMAHA NSP 436 6.1CH speakers.thank you in advance.

[kimpOy]

Yamaha RXV440,
its the yamaha entry level receiver pero bang for the buck!
-6.1 dts-es, dd-es PL2, and plentiful DSPs
-Excellent on movies, Good on music
-high current amplification na rin, 75w per channel RMS 95w MAX
-speaker a, b and a+b function
-winner of EISA


on the NSP 436
-have no idea on how it sounds, better audition it first truckman,
-but looking at the specs, ok na for a small room,
-the question is how much for the NSP436? baka naman kaya i produced ng DTX/GALE/Wharfedale or baka much better pa, with a fraction of the price.

[truckman]

NSP436 14,800 daw w/120 watts sub

[kimpOy]

14800???

pare eto break down ng DTX

main floorstanders 3,800
center 1700
rear 2200
sub 6500

at 14, 200 full range speakers ka na!
90db sensitivity, 140w
check out dai-ichi showroom sa megamall look for DTX
pero mas mataas ang price dun, prices i quote are RAON prices

[truckman]

thanks pare. puntahan ko.

[kimpOy]

im using out of the box DTX on yamaha 440 using audiopro 14 gauge cables, mono wiring, 2 channel analog set up.
1-10 here's my rating

high 3
mids 8
bass 6

played several CDs (sinatra, mathis, norah jones, US3,)
i was surprise with the mids clear crisp vocal without the siblance (like catssssss) highs are not so bright mainly because there not broken-in yet bass lacks punch, thats good music, ok ok on movies but a good subwoofer would easily remedy this problem.

another nice thing, is the sound stage, a lawak ng soundstage i could hear birds chipping on my left side (remember 2 channel setup lang muna ako) while watching attack of the clones when amidala and anakin were at naboo by the waterfalls! ang galing!

[slayer]

Galing talaga Yammys basta movies. ;)

[kimpOy]

at magaling namanang Harman Kardon sa music,

[Prometheus]

Masaya na ako TV kong 21". Actually may HT kami pero di ko alam kung ano ung mga Description nila 41" ata ung TV. Akin ung pinaka-latest ng JVC. Palagi ko ngang kita s newspaper ang HT namin. Pero wala akong paki. Basta malakas ang sounds namin at widescreen, happy na ako. Para di ko na marinig ang mga nag-aaway na kapitbhay. Lalakasan ko n lang volume namin.

[kimpOy]

yup tama ka prometheus, if you're contended with your gears ayos ka na dun. kaya nga let your ears show the way.

different strokes for different folks,

may kilala nga ako up to now naka PRO-LOGIC pa rin, pero contended na .

right now ok na ako sa 2 channel stereo set up ko

[kimpOy]

mazda2, may na isip ako on how to use your monitir audio B2 kahit wala ka pang audio/visual receiver

buy an active subwoofer with speaker output.

connect the audio out of your TV to the subwoofer via Y-connector cable or just use ordinart RCA cable, connect monitor audio to the sub.

bali ibabato ng sub yung high freq sa monitor audio b2 mo(65hz-20Khz).
habang sasaluhin naman niya yung low freq (40hz)
