barbie, taylor swift, busch lite, walt disney doing just fine.
A well setup 5.1 is really decent...I run a 7.2 system but I may go smaller in the near future, repairing my receiver twice is enough for me. I hope to simplify. Women have a tendency to live longer than men so I would want to leave my wife a less complicated system. My son will get my audio gear and he will figure it out.
I have a 5.1 system made of Speakerlab point ones and a SVS thumper on their optional rubber feet. Sounds great. But I agree. Tunes.... It's 2 channel!!A well setup 5.1 is really decent...
I have a small 6.1 setup,
Its ok for movies.
Listening I always go back to 2 ch...simple.
I've always watched tv or movies with my 2 channel gear. I don't have any home theater experience.I definitely want to check out the Kraken, and I will have another look at SYN. I do not mind solid state for TV and it is a little late in the game to teach my wife about tubes. I would be happy to hear any thoughts on Syn from those of you who use one.
Yes, but $1.3 Billion of that came from @Ripper2860 .Don't knock it, Barbie made $1.4 Billion at the box office...!
I'm gonna guess that is not a low mass arm, unless it's made of cardboard and painted to look like metal..... here is the balm to ease your phonographic angst ....
I believe the Kraken specs will come out soon. I should be fine with 30-50 watts per channel, my speakers are 8 ohm and not super efficient.I've always watched tv or movies with my 2 channel gear. I don't have any home theater experience.
The Kraken -Syn is probably what I will try, but I have a question. I have 5 (really 8 total) cerwin vega (15 in woofers) in storage. Are these speakers too much for the center and surround channels? Guessing that I wouldn't need a sub .
these speakers are pretty efficient . Should be good with Kraken . I could shake the house with 4 of them connected to my old adcom mono amps.I believe the Kraken specs will come out soon. I should be fine with 30-50 watts per channel, my speakers are 8 ohm and not super efficient.
I do like the idea of one five channel amp compared to my hooking up numerous amplifiers, so that is a win.these speakers are pretty efficient as well. Should be good with Kraken . I could shake the house with 4 of them connected to my old adcom mono amps.
I'm over that these days. My hearing is pretty good .I'd like to keep it that way.
That sounds like it would kick ass! It’s not going to be the best balanced or accurate sound but I bet it’ll sound fun.I have 5 (really 8 total) cerwin vega (15 in woofers) in storage. Are these speakers too much for the center and surround channels? Guessing that I wouldn't need a sub .
I am assuming that it would probably need to dwarf his desk, Tom, and you'd have to ship it on a flatbed...Not that I am going to build one but how big of a tube rack would you honestly need? Seriously quartered oak to match your desk would be pretty spiffy.
I'm hoping it will be good enough for tv -movies. I had used an audio control eq back then. I would definitely use eq again.That sounds like it would kick ass! It’s not going to be the best balanced or accurate sound but I bet it’ll sound fun.
