    I've used www.brandnamez.com for certain speaker orders and was completely satified. Though, I have no warranty. I would not use them for big ticket items, like your receivers. ------------------ TV: Sony 45" HDTV Coming Soon... Receiver: Onkyo Coming Soon...

    Best horror movies?

    tdrought replied to Kain's topic in Lounge

    No good horror movies have been made for years. Here are my reccomendations: - The Thing - The Exorcist - Halloween - Jaws - Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Silent Night, Deadly Night ------------------ TV: Sony 45" HDTV Coming Soon... Receiver: Onkyo Coming Soon... Fronts: RP-5 Center: RC-3 Surrounds: RS-3 Rear Surrounds: RB-5 Subwoofer: SVS Coming Soon...

    I am single, so I have no life. Outside of HT, that is, and thats fine with me. I am just curious how you all test speaker placement. I had posted earlier and was told to play around with the location of the speakers. Thats fine with floor standing... but what about your wall mounts. Any quick secrets without having to pound holes all over my walls. If I had a few stupid friends, I could have them hold the speakers over their heads while I watch a few movies.

    Sweet! Thats what I wanted to hear. Onkyo sales, here I come. BTW - I have no wife or kids. Just a dedicated HT room.

    I never read about Onkyo receivers on this board, so, do you know something I don't? My system includes the RP-5's, RC-3 and RS-3. I am looking at getting the Onkyo 898. The specs include 110 watts x 7 channels into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.08% THD, THX Select, THX Surround EX, DTS-ES, Dolby Digital, and Dolby Pro Logic II decoding. At $1500 on Crutchfield, this receiver sounds like a steal. Others have commented that this receiver is overkill for the speakers, but, is there such a thing as too good of a receiver. I think not. I do feel that this is better than the Denons and Yamahas at this price level, but, I'm fairly new to HT. What do you all think? My quest is for THX.
