Oh my god, who started this? I went over figures and had no idea what I actually had tied up in audio/video gear. I figured the Home Theater at $20,050 including interconnects and speaker wire. The Bedroom at $2,450 I'm glad my wife does not know these figures. I am not going to count the computer. Thanks for the reality check. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (ALF/ARF) LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

So you are using your DVD player for CD playback as well, hmmm. Unfortunately, I am unaware of any DVD player that can playback CD's with equal quality as it can with DVD's. I would suggest getting a separate CD player that was designed and intended for the sole purpose of CD playback. I would not even think of using my Nakamichi DVD-10 for CD playback simply because it was not the task that it was designed and built for. So I use a separate CD player for that purpose. Try borrowing one of decent quality and try it see if it is any better. Just my thoughts. Hope it works out for you. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (ALF/ARF) LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I use a DBX 120X-DS to manage my subwoofer, it has a continuously variable crossover from 50Hz-210Hz, takes bass signals from 55Hz-110Hz and brings them down a full octave down to 27Hz. You can also tweek 4 frequencies at 28, 34, 40 and 50Hz for the ultimate in tuning. No need to build anything, or drop $1600+ for a new receiver just have that feature. They can be had on eBay for around $200 or so on average. In fact I have one coming to me that I won't need if anyone wants it. These things are great for subwoofer control and they can also reinforce the low end in your mains and rears to boot. Just make sure your speakers and amplifier can handle it, more bass requires more power! ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (ALF/ARF) LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I have a KV-4 Center Channel and it's awesome. It can keep up with my Belle's and LWE-I mains with no trouble at all. I don't see all the hype about the Academy, the tweeter on it looks cheesy, it does not seem to be as nice as KV-4's tractix design. The Academy's have been going for crazy prices on eBay lately, but that's eBay for you. The KV-4 sounds good with music and DVD's and it never breaks up or crackles at all, I feed mine with a dedicated amp. I used to have the specs for the KV-4 but seemed to have misplaced them. I would like to compare specs on the Academy and KV-4 to see what the differences are mechanically and electrically anyway. I just can't imagine it would be sonically superior. Just my opinion. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (ALF/ARF) LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

Klipsch does not make car audio products, although they are associated with or the owner's of Pyle Corp. The woofers for auction look like drivers taken from an LF-10 Subwoofer, you can use them if you can obtain the Theile Small (T/S) parameters from Klipsch so you can build the proper enclosure for them. In the wrong size and type of enclosure they will not sound good. They are also more than likely an 8 ohm driver but paralleling them both should give you a 4 ohm load so you can drive them with a bridged amplifier. Anyway in the proper enclosure they should work fine. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (Pre-outs only) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/ALF/RF/ARF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) & LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I have a very nice pair of very rare LWE-I's (Louis W. Erath, Houston TX circa late 60's early 70's) that feature a very unique motion feedback circuit that can use an amplifier's negative feedback stage to intensify the woofer's low end bass response. I think they would work best with a tube amplifier set up to get the most benefit from them. I am using them w/out the motion feedback circuit at present and they sound nice, but I need some speakers for my bedroom set up so I am looking to trade preferably someone in the New England area as shipping may be costly. They have a 15" CTS woofer, a 6" CTS midrange, and a EV T-35 tweeter these are all original components. They are finished in walnut I think but I could be wrong as the grain differs from my Heresy II's. I have the original matching stands for them too. The back has controls for midrange and tweeter attenuation, and a room gain control. They use a Cinch-Jones type connector with a six lead cable, they are very solidly built and very heavy. I am looking to trade them for a pair of Heresy I's, II's or preferably Forte I's. All finishes considered but they must be in at least very good to excellent condition, with all original components. There is very limited information on these speakers on the web, but there is a positive review of them on AudioReview.com they will produce more bass then a Heresy and are equally if not more efficient than a Heresy. Anyone interested please contact me, if not I will just hold on to them as it is unlikely I will ever come accross another pair. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (Pre-outs only) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/ALF/RF/ARF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane) & LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback (Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DD Linear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Electronic Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System DBX 2015G 15 Band/Channel Equalizer A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I have a heavy LWE-I Speaker (+/- 60-65lbs) sitting on each of mine toward the rear with no additional bracing and they can handle it fine. Although, they do have a piece of wood that is screwed down to the top portion in about the center of them. This is the way they came from the factory. I would say if the TV does not weigh more than 80 lbs no additional bracing would be necessary, they are very sturdily built. If you are not comfortable doing this, put some pieces of 2x4's to further reinforce it. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I run alot of power in my HT system, I have a Denon AVR 3300 running 3 outboard amplifiers. The effects are stunning, the DBX BX-3MkII's are rated at 400W X 2 @ 8 Ohms, one runs the Belle's the other the Heresy II's and ESS Minis. Although they are hardly working to power the Klipsch, I have headroom and dynamics that are right off the scale. Transients jump right out at you, especially since I run Dynamic Range Controllers and a Subharmonic Synthesizer. I did not think the Denon's power supply had enough ooomph to drive all the speakers I had and still remain solid and dynamic so I took almost all the load off of it, now it drives only one pair. As Ray stated it is the quality of those watts that will make the most difference. I thought the AVR 5800 was rated at 140W for each channel?

I would have to agree with macklipsch $1500 for Belle's with veneer damage is pretty high. I got my '80 Belle's in Oak Clear w/cane grills in good cosmetic shape just a few chips and some light stains for $1000. I would offer $400 for the rougher one. Just my thoughts.

boa, you've got mail - I PM'd you with the details. Email me directly for photos if you like.

Sorry Boa, DBX Consumer group went out of business back in 1990. They are available on eBay and Yahoo occasionally and they are in demand. Be sure to get the 120X-DS "Digital Series" version for the most flexibility. You can do many things with it, use it for bi-amping and route the frequencies that you select from 55-210Hz to the sub and the rest to your mains, or use it as a sub crossover, or use it as a subharmonic synthesizer to restore content that was lost in the recording/remastering process. Or do both at once. You can control it all from the front of the unit, and it has level indicator LED rows for 28,34,40 & 50Hz with fine tune knobs at the base of them. I think Cruzer uses one on his set-up. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

It seems like the whole focus is sending more low frequency output to the dedicated LFE (SUB) channel, by setting all other speakers to SMALL allowing the sub to perform the majority of the frequency response below 80Hz +/- 12db. A strong point was mentioned, depending on the size of your mains and rears you could be sacrificing some important mid-bass output so that your system will now sound like "thunder and lightning". It is all user preference. I eliminate this dilemma by having total control of the subwoofer's crossover frequency, gain, and overall sub-harmonic level. By using the DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesiser/Electronic Crossover I can continuously vary the crossover point from 50-210hz, and manually select the desired output, I leave the sub volume on maximum. At the same time I can take a 55-110Hz bass signal and synthesize it a full octave lower and fine tune it at 28,34,40, & 50Hz with precise level controls on the face of the unit. Speakers are set to LARGE and the subwoofer is no longer controlled by the receiver. I have no trouble running it this way since I have enough power to support the most difficult transients with up to 400W available on 4 channels. The bass is tremendous, and can be easily adjusted. Fine tuning is accomplished with the assistance of the DBX 14/10 Eq which can RTA any spot in the living room in 45 seconds or less, and with 10 memories available you can do many seating positions or average them all together if you like. The SPL output when measured can easily reach the 14/10's max 119db. Although, just out of sheer curiousity I will give the SMALL thing a try. Thanks for the tip. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-3MkII Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder RCA DRD-303RA Satellite Receiver VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

No, I did not notice a drop in volume level, but I went from 105W to 250W. The Denon user manual shows the analog pre-outs variable from 1.2V to 8V depending on what level you have the individual channel set to. Each channel is adjustable from -12db to +12db and I would assume that "0" is 1.2V and "+12" is 8V. I leave the mains set to 0 or +1, the center at +5, to compensate for the 99db efficiency of the KV-4 versus the 104db of the Belle's. The rears are set to +3, and the subwoofer to +4 I would guess that the Sony should have the same ability to compensate for speaker efficiency and input sensitivity levels on outboard amplifiers. I hope I understood your question correctly. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) Yamaha M-80 Auto Class A Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-2 2/3/4 Channel Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

Hello Jobman, The Denon AVR-3300 has lots of pre-outs on the back of it making the connection of outboard amplifiers easy, I use the front pre-outs to feed the Yamaha M-80, the center out to feed the DBX MPA-150, and rear outs to feed the DBX BX-2 I am using Stinger Dream Series twisted pair interconnects treated with Caig's ProGold. I am using y-adapters to sum the center channel set of RCA's. Hope this helps. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) Yamaha M-80 Auto Class A Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-2 2/3/4 Channel Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I use my Denon AVR-3300 to run 3 outboard amplifiers, 1 Front, 1 Rear, and 1 Center with excellent results. The Denon is very clean sounding to start with but I wanted more power and dynamics to support my processors and did not want to overwork the power supply in the Denon. The signal is clean and noise free and now the Denon hardly works at all, and I have enough power to fill an dance hall with sound. ------------------ Sony KP-43T70 43" Television Denon AVR 3300 A/V Receiver (LF/RF) (LWE-I's w/Motion Feedback - Walnut) Yamaha M-80 Auto Class A Amplifier (LF/RF) (Belle's - Oak Clear/Cane Grills) DBX BX-2 2/3/4 Channel Power Amplifier (RR/ARR/LR/ALR) (Heresy II's (Walnut/Cane) & ESS Mini Monitors (Walnut)) DBX MPA-150 Mono Split Spectrum Amplifier © (KV-4 - Black) Klipsch KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer (2) Nakamichi DVD-10 DVD/LCD/CD Player Nakamichi MB-10 Music Bank CD Changer Technics SL-DL5 DDLinear Tracking Turntable JVC HR-S7500U SVHS Video Cassette Recorder VC3 Deluxe Video Clarifier DBX 400XG Program Route Selector DBX 120X-DS Subharmonic Synthesizer/Crossover DBX 3BX-DS 3-Band Dynamic Range Controller (2) (1-LC) (1-RC) DBX 14/10 14-Band Computerized Equalizer/RTA Analyzer/SPL Meter Panamax 1000+ Surge Protector/Line Conditioner Sega Dreamcast w/3 Controllers & VMU's/S-Video Output Bedroom Yamaha RX-900U Receiver Panasonic DVD-A120U DVD/CD Player Sony SLV-740HF Hi-Fi VCR BBE - ARS Audio Recovery System A/D/S L300E Mini Speakers GE 20" Television

I am once again changing my home theater set-up around, so I am parting with my Yamaha M-80 Auto Class A Power Amplifier, and my DBX BX-2 2/3/4 Channel Configurable Power Amplifier. They are both rated at 250W per channel, the Yamaha has Class A operation to 25W and is 2 ohm stable. They are both in excellent cosmetic and operational condition. Any takers? Looking to get $400 for the M-80 and $350 for the BX-2, I have the user manuals for them. Please email w/questions or for photos.
