I just had to tell someone, my wife don't understand [:^)] Five years ago I finished our basement and set it up for HT. I retired my old equipment and purchased a Denon 3802 to handle HT and music. The 3802 is still fine for HT but I never did like the setup for music. My forte II's did not sound that great. I was listening to music last week and it just sucked. I purchased a Niles switch box and tonight I got my old amp (Denon PMA700V) out of storage along with my 1/3 band graphic and set it up. After I hooked every thing up I loaded Jackson Browns "Running on Empty" (first CD I saw) and ran it through my old Denon with just my Forte's. WOW!!! I am in love with my Forte's again. I can't believe the difference, now I remember how good that setup sounded. I got the Niles idea off of this forum. I don't really post just read and try to learn. Thanks for listening!
Setup: Forte II Main, Academy Center, RSW-12 Sub, RS3II sides, and KG-4 Backs.
