  1. My new surge protector tells me the current usage. The lights are .5A, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12. With the sub off, the only way I can get the 1A light to flash is to be very loud. (P=IV) Watts=(from .5-1)(120) Denon is putting out 100W on the peaks. When I had my projector and subs hooked up, I could flash the 12A light...............
  2. 1 poor student to the next - how much for that adcom? I was gonna hold out for the mps-1, but for the right price....... Right now I could probably put together, say $26? (just dropped some jl gear in the car, 3 year anniversary, christmas, and bought a wet bar)
  3. I have dean g'd rf-7's like you, can't imagine looking for another speaker, ever.... what's possesed you?
  4. short answer: no to get your f3 even around 30, you need 300+ liter ported enclosure per driver, i didn't even bother to find out if the port would fit, or how the fr graph looks I imagine you'd get better results from a modestly priced "normal" sub that won't take over your room
  5. Theres a small chance that he knows more about these than I do; I've never heard either one....... Whoops
  6. No cdp, entry level dvd player that I could use. I am using my computer to play mp3's off wmp. I will investigate tube integrated stuff.
  7. Undergrad in Engineering Physics with emphasis in materials science transfers nicely into graduate program in materials science, might be able to get done in 5 years too. Next semester for me is crappy too, still entrenched in our gen ed program: Thermodynamics Intro to religion U.S. History since 1877 World Regional Geography Math for physicists 1
  8. Now that's the truth, but I'll be getting money, which fixes everything
  9. Foundations of Physics II Public Speaking..................................... American Democracy and Citizenship....................................... Differential Equations Fitness for Living....................................................................... I'll be done on Thursday, first one was today, then I'm off for a full month. WHooo
  10. I'm running straight off my denon avr-1907. I had a crown xti 2000 hooked up for a while, didn't notice a difference. If anything it added a buzz/hiss I didn't like, (might have been something else crappy upstream, art clean box, my source) I turned to the cdp before a tube integrated because I don't have a decent source, actually considering a normal cdp over a tube integrated probably I'm running compressed mp3's off the digital out from my computer. Not good. Crappy integrated sound card. Thanks for the info on used cdp's, I've never read about the lasers going out. I'm a little skeptical about doing anything more audio wise until I'm in a better room though- just seems like a waste. (Will be 2 years from now) Also, I was laying in bed last night thinking about a round/oval room. Could standing waves form like they do in rectangular rooms? Seems promising having not read any good technical articles on the idea.
  11. What about the jolida JD 100A? One in garage sale - problem is, I can't swing $600 right now.
  12. I played cello from first grade through fifth, taking lessons from a phenomenal cellist in the st. louis philharmonic orchaestra. Played on stage when the pope came to st. louis back about 8 years ago as second cellist in that band, toured for a couple weeks with a mostly college age group. Very few things I regret more in life than quitting. Get him to play in talent show at school, obviously something 10 year olds recognize, not mahler......
  13. I have dean g'd rf-7's and a denon receiver. I think I'm going to stay with ss amplification, and get a dedicated one someday, but would like to experiment with a tube source. Any thoughts are very welcome. I know NOTHING about tubes. Suggested reading, brand names, prices, everything. Thanks Alex
  14. It is a 2-way with what looks like a 12. Fairly wide horn too
  15. What's the problem? Seems like a good setup to me
  16. First time I heard rs-7's, after hearing rf-15's, kg1's, rf-7's, rb-75's, rf-35's, rc-3, kv-3, heresy, cornscala, etc etc. - I was blown away, they were terrible. I imagine it would need to be 10 feet away from the nearest listener to be bearable; and it that case, not suitable for dvd concert material, just movies. Good observation, I always compare my ht "sound" to theaters, and the obvious differences in speaker layout. I've been in several bad theaters. One, the center channel was way to the left of the center of the screen and drove me nuts. In the theater I saw transformers, there was one sweet lfe effect with almost a sine wave sweep down to very low, and their sub was just torn to shreds, bottoming, all kinds of mechanical noise, I laughed out loud.
  17. I don't think anyone is going to advise against the 64. If you want it, buy it! It is a serious speaker, have fun.
  18. Turns out MSU students like MU...... I was watching the MU Oklahoma game downtown here in Springfield in a bar, about 100 Mizzou fans, and me. Every time OK made a play, i was like yyeaaaaaaaaaaaaa, it was amazing. After about 5 minutes, the other 2 OK fans came over to sit next to me. Man did I get some dirty looks Definitely the most fun I've had in a while
  19. host them on photobucket.com then its impossible to mess-up
  20. Definetly take them out of the wall. Does your adcom gfp not have a bass boost? I personally like a couple db boost down low, but I do it through my receiver.
