Change yammy 461 to 663. Change Philips 5986K to Pioneer DAV600AV. Change 5 yammy speakers to PSB. Still using yammy sub coz its good enuf.

The best part is I took out the top drawer and the new center speaker fit nicely inside it

Good enuf. With that dirt cheap price you can't complaint much

Yep the front floorstander is Alpha T1. The bass is good and acceptable even without my sub turn on (or if I use Pure Direct mode).

The bookshelf Alpha B1 I use for my surround.

Nope only 5.1 coz I use the ext surround channel to bi-amp my front speakers.

Dude
I use floorstander T1 for front channel only. Surround is the bookshelf B1.

Pretty impressive for something built in China. So far I can't find a single flaw like something senget or whatever. The sound is getting better by day

Haha well said dude. How can I compete with yammy 861 and velo 12r? No way
A&L also told me same thing. Easy to drive and burn in
Waiting for another pair of SA XT cables now from Futureshop UK to go all SA XT for front bi-amp and center

Tokey besar with "budget setup"

Dude, I like your TV cabinet. Is that custom made?

You design and then built it or just design and get someone to build your design for you?
Too bad you in Penang. Anyway I like it. Not just the design. The material as well. Dark colored wood.
Definitely better than black

Elite or not u can get that free la from Best Denki. Go to Sony side it will be there. If not then out of stock oredi la.

Yep I'm looking for taller n solid stand too for my surround. Currently the tallest I can find at Amcorp there is only 30 inches.

A&L huh? Maybe I should drop by and see if they got one to let go.

First education to children very important.

Never touch daddy's speakers.
Do not stick your ears on daddy's speakers.
Do not sit on daddy's subwoofer.
Always use remote control (which all wrapped in plastic ).
Don't forget to switch off daddy's amp, daddy's DVD player and daddy's TV when done watching movies.
Do not stand in front of daddy's TV.

The key word is "daddy" so they don't want daddy to scold them if anything happen to daddy's stuff.

So far so good

Only one rule to HM while watching movies....stop asking what will happen next!

Yeah that one also. My daughter like to put her hand inside the round bass port when I use Yammy sub but she can't do that anymore with my 10R since the bass port is flat at the bottom. So one rule obsolete for me

Got surround speaker stand from A&L Amcorp. Its 42" in height and cost RM180 per pair. Construction is all metal with spike feet. The pole is hollow and can be filled with sand or whatever fancies you. Here's some eye candy...

[attachmentid=550736] [attachmentid=550741]spikes...ouch
[attachmentid=550745] [attachmentid=550747]height comparison with my current "stand"
hole to fill sand before attach the top plate
[attachmentid=550748] better now since its not block by the couch

All parts bottom plate, pole and top plate connect together with one large hex head screw respectively.

TQ. Nothing fancy but it will do the job. Need to find sand now. Maybe cat litter sand

Yeah kind of worried me also but I tell you the spike kind of "dig in" to the marble but without any marking. Its hard to push the stand when the spikes leveled. Same goes to my speakers with spikes. Not easy to push.

Other sifu should answer what are the spikes for. I can't recall but got to do with something musical

Exactly what my HM suggest. My carpet from HN will arrive soon so need to go and look for something that match the color. Anyway, personally I think no problem leaving the spikes on marble. Kind of stable and holding well.

If u need shorter one than don't get this one la. Get yourself a nice 36" wooden stand. This one is for people who want their speaker high but don't want or can't wall mount them. Yeah I always deal with Alex Song. I ask him whether he still got or not after I bought one and he said still have. Quite heavy but I get him to carry the box to my car

Dude...ur sub kinda blocking ur left speaker
