QUOTE(sKyWiR3pT3lTd @ Apr 16 2010, 03:14 PM) Htkaki, can i know the models you would personally recommend for Pioneer AVR. AVR+speaker+sub for 3K? Tough...better look for HTIB...Also speaker and sub that can sum up to 3k. For people getting into this hobby, the Dali Concept 2 (bookshelf) + Dali Concept Centre can be had for less than 2K. U still need to get a AVR + a sub.... This post has been edited by anfieldude: Apr 16 2010, 04:12 PM |

QUOTE(RayKazansky @ May 13 2010, 09:04 PM) Well, thanks for the info, Daren. Scouting for cheap AVR with HD audio support now... Check out Marantz NR1501....I think it is ~ RM2300. Also Yammy 665 shd be slightly less. |

QUOTE(yonggoh @ Jan 3 2011, 11:36 AM) honestly... i think the audible differences are still negligible... perhaps the ceiling needs to be treated also... yonggoh,but the "clap" trick (where one would just clap the hands and listen for any echos) is improved of course the clap trick doesn't cover an entire freq range... Its important to use a good stereo CD to evaluate the differences. The differences for a movie are difficult to discern. The lfe improvement shd ur room have a problem is easy to make out, the others are more difficult and really more apparent when u do not have all 7 speakers blasting... Of course, if ur room was already good to begin with, the differences are negligible. This post has been edited by anfieldude: Jan 4 2011, 07:25 PM |

QUOTE(mikapoh @ Jan 7 2011, 05:22 PM) Yes. A dedicated cdp is a must if you wanna listen pure music. Think hifi bugs are hitting me Actually, I was in to hi-fi for the past 20years...I only recently came into HT about 3 years ago. For me, music is priority...I have run thru my series of amps and speakers from university days, from my very 1st amp the Luxman (that my friend still uses till this very day - almost 25 yrs old (hand me down.) . Even it spreads to some sifus like anfiledude, htkaki already......haha. Ah Tan has said along the road of AV there will come a time we go for hifi for the purest sound. |

QUOTE(htkaki @ Mar 22 2011, 09:07 AM) Knowing taukeh mpyw for years, he will surely upgrade to a proper FHD pj this year. 'Resistance is futile' to say the least I would recommend the JVC as well if ur room is light controlled. Plus if possible a good screen. If the room is not light controlled, then a DLP is better (especially a bright one)....Takeuh mpyw, I know you will definitely ask me back. I am still on the fence but it would probably be JVC pj. As for now, I am still looking for my 'missing link' mpyw, What screen are u using? |

QUOTE(D_Y2k.4^ @ Jul 5 2011, 10:51 PM) Thought of sharing my mid range setup in my apartment Nice setup. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « AV: 42" Panasonic S10k Popcorn Hour C200 Media Player Astro Beyond Pioneer LX53 AV Amp Monitor Audio RX Fronts, centre and rear Velodyne SPL Ultra-1000 Logitech 1100i Universal Remote HIFI: ipad 2 Wadia 171i Transport Cyrus 8xpd Amp Future upgrade list: Oppo 95 Bluray player 55-60" TV Floorstanders Some feedback. If u do use the purple lights during movie viewing, it will mask ur perception of colour and whites. So if u want to use a bias light, I would use a neutral D65 light. |
