Here's my problem, after connecting my speakers to my receiver (Denon AVR 3313 CI) as specified in the manual, only the tweeter and midrange cones work; the bottom two LF cones don't produce any sound. When I plug the speaker unit directly into the wall however, the bass cones start humming...

I currently have a 5.1 system with B&W 818 in-ceiling speakers. I would like to replace the LCR across the front with three new speakers. I have a REL T9 sub. I am broadly considering the following speaker manufacturers: B&W KEF Monitor Revel Paradigm Focal Sonus Faber My plan is to...

I picked up some older B&W Speakers yesterday and I am a newbie and could use advise and information while I learn abuot my system. My experience in Home Theater is very limited coming from a cheaper Yamaha Theater in a box setup I think the Yamaha was the 6040 with a 5:1 setup of Yamaha...

What would it take to win a contract to work on a home theater-style screening room for George Lucas? Keith Yates shared the answer over a lunch hosted at Bob and Ron's World Wide Stereo in Ardmore, PA. According to Keith, the key is not the price—there are companies full of people dying to...

Found a local deal on some mint 600 S3's, and I'm thinking about picking them up. I just picked up some 602 S3's, and I'm moving my 601 S3's to the sides. As of now, I don't have anything (sensible) for the rears. I was thinking about picking up another pair of 601's for the rear, but given...

So I know there's tons of what should I buy posts and this is another one. I'm in a little bit of a pickle. Currently working for a big box electronic store, but just got a job in the corporate world and am trying to put together my big boy system, before i part ways. I just purchased a 55vt60...

Help me decide... Found some deals on B&W and Magnepans. So... B&W DM303 or Magnepan MMGW? It's for the two fronts in a 5.1 setup.

Hi guys, I've been debating this for a while, and have done plenty of research. But I figure asking specifically based on my setup wouldn't be a bad idea either. So I currently run a pair of 601 S3's as mains, and LCR60 S3 center, off a Marantz SR6006, and a Velodyne DPS10 sub. I have these...

I sold all my AV equipment when i moved to China. Now that I'm back stateside, i'm looking to rebuild my home entertainment system. I'm open to suggestions as my goal is to build an HTPC system. My main source of music and movies are now on my computer or network attached storage (NAS). I was...

I have a Denon AVR-988 and recently picked up a pair of B&W DM-604 S3 speakers. While I love the speakers, they do seem a bit bright, (the highs being a bit shrill at times depending on the recording I am listening to). I have read that a Rotel amp using the Denon's preamp will improve this...

I want to mount B&W 685s on brackets from the ceiling (tilted slightly downwards), leaving them about 7 from the floor. The brackets are similar to what people would use to mount them from walls, except my living area is in the middle of a larger irregular space and there are no walls where I...

Just curious as I have not had a chance to audition them, but I like the price.

I noticed that I hadn't seen B&W OWNER'S thread , but that there are a lot of owners on this forum and I think that the consistant bashing from about 4 posters makes people hesitant to get involved in any of the many threads that keep getting nasty. So, to that end, I think that if there was a...
