My current room was the result of many months (years?) of planning and execution (thus the "brainchild"). I also have tons of fantastic memories in this room. I remember everything from Keith talking about his pants moving to Franklin almost throwing my remote at someone. Somewhere, there are...

As most of you know, our house has been on the market for a while. Well, it finally sold last week. The people that bought it are a really cool younger couple. They bought the theater "as-is" so I'm going to be working with them on getting the remote customized for them and showing them how...

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more that makes sense. John

A coffee table between you and the speakers?!?!? Shame...shame...shame... :obscene-buttred: That looks great and is a kick ass little system. Enjoy! John

That's interesting. The nuances of different brands is why I'm asking. I know on my Yammie, I can stream from Pandora etc. into Zone 2 regardless of Zone 1; however, Airplay is a different animal since an outside device is essentially controlling the unit. Thanks, John

Here's an odd question: Can you Airplay into Zones 2 & 3? John

I'll buck the trend and say no DAC. I'm assuming that he won't be moving this around very much; therefore, the physical weakness of the mini-mike connector shouldn't come into play. The real weakness with built-in sound cards has more to do with RTA type measurements than the output. This...

^^^^What he said!^^^^ John

Man between you and Heeman I'm going to stay green!! That is an awesome piece of gear!! YOU SUCK DUDE! Congrats, John

Yep, funny how that works, huh? They seem to always get it worked out just in time. John

I agree with Jeff and Haywood. The one advantage to a static system, IMHO, is that it becomes the "standard" and the thing that changes is the material. I know how the system sounds, so I just listen to material. If the material sounds really bad; it's probably the material. John

Barney, you got my hopes up then BASHED them with a hammer. A few years ago I traded in my Collector's Edition DVD of The Abyss to BB for the $5 promotion. I remember thinking that surely this one HAD to be on blu-ray. A few months later I started looking for it and found multiple discussions...

Yeah, I wasn't thinking about transistors having 3 leads. More importantly it's great to see someone like rammisframmis hanging out around here. We can always use someone with some electrical knowledge, not to mention a good smart ass. Welcome to the fray!! John

Yes, the Roku does DD (at least). I know this because Hell On Wheels sounds fantastic! I promise I'll check the Panny tonight when I get home. John

My guess is that it's going to be a "proprietary" name such as "High End Transistor" or something like that because it's connecting the two "high range" drivers in this case. (Sorry Jeff, I thought you were saying it was ONLY connected to the green wire.) That could mean that it is in fact a...

After looking at the diagram, I have a couple of questions: (1) It appears to me that the HET is connected with a single wire to the Orange lead, not the Green. What am I missing? (2) How was the value of the HET determined? I don't see it listed on the diagram. Typically when devices are...

Such as the "pictures" in the newspapers in the Harry Potter movies. John

Man this looks goo-ood!!! I'm super excited for you guys! Congrats! John

Just of out of curiosity, did you try pressing the "down" button on the directional pad to see if the CC option is there? As for a player, I know that the Rokus support CC from Netflix. I can check my Panny BD player and Samsung TV (which would presumably have the same app as a Sammy BD...

The bottom line to me is this: That system is AWESOME!! It's the kind that inspires to pour a glass of my favorite beverage, grab my lady's hand, play some tunes, and enjoy life. Congrats on a job well done my friend! John
