QUOTE(junwei @ Oct 23 2008, 11:54 PM) yes rega apollo and rega brio3 ..still trying to run the mezzo 2 in before i can really judge the performance on the systems.
Added on October 23, 2008, 11:59 pmthinking of getting 50" but then think about it again ...42" is mainly for astro. Better spend the $$ into HD65 or higher range of projector when I get my Denon bluray transport player ~ Denon is still waiting for the format to finalize before launching the bluray transport. Probably will cost around 3.5K ... so need to allocate another 10K for my projector+screeb and bluray upgrade. But so far, sound wise, i'm fine with carnival series since mostly running bluray downconvert D9 dvd only. Not planning to get Pana or Sony BD Player ..waste of money IMHO. Why are u claiming the Panny and Sony BD player a waste of money ? Are they poor in the PQ ? I thought the Panny BD30 rated highly. Somemore it is now selling RM1.9 plus 5 BD to choose. Any comment? |

Where got original BD DVD? Do u mean ripped BD DVD? That still considered ahem dvd.
I bought ripped BD dvd and play into Sony 708. The player does wonderfully in upscaling to my Panny plasma. The result is much closer to original dvd. The surround is great too. The best thing is this player has no problem in reading dvd5.

A good entry level system. but I would like you to do some arrangement for the speakers placement.
I suggest ur centre speaker to put on top of the cabinet in the middle of the LCD tv and try to place the pair of surround speakers to the back of ur seating position. I am sure that way u will hear bigger 3D improvement in the sound field without digging further your pocket.....cheers.........

Yeah, would like to know your dvd collections are "original" ?
If so, I salute you.........I will feel ashamed of myself as 90% of my dvds are ahem ripped ones.

pls anyone dont misused the word "entry level" or "budget".............I think u guys have raised the entry level bars rock high nowadays. Even WhatHifi entry levels are very clear cut with only integrated amp, no pre & power amp & not to mention valve amp !!!! @_@

Ok bro, your neighbour does not complain. But I am sure your heart will complaint! Have you checked your blood pressure? The sub & the huge Klipsch speakers will pound your heart like no other biz if you do watch action movies too often. This is a health tip..........!

QUOTE(timothyy @ Nov 16 2008, 11:48 PM) He! He! Not yet... didn't manage to take any photo. Strangely... Mezzo Manual itself advises us to run in the speakers. Connect different polarity for 1 speaker, face each other at a 10cm distance and run for 36 hrs. Hmmm.... Not only for Model Mezzo, but all MS models. I bought the Avant centre 905i and the manual also says the same thing for all Avant speakers. I doubt why we have to put them face to face. Cant we just play it like normal position for 36 hours? Kind of strange.... What about Sub? How to do run-in issue? Play soft music for few hours a day? Do we need to crank-up the sub volume a bit high than the front speakers coz while we play soft volume, the sub only works a minor, maybe not enough for run it in......... |

QUOTE(timothyy @ Nov 18 2008, 06:30 PM) I am running it at face to face right now. I thought it is more of the polarity thing... didn't think of the cancelling of sound. Anyway, it is still very loud. Ha! Ha! I put it to pro logic now so that my centre and sub also running. Kekekeke... But my worst worry is whether my player can tahan or not... tonight gonna switch it off. Hey do u have astro? If you do, turn it to channel 851 radio. Choose your favourite station and switch your receiver to PL Music II or any 5.1, then you can rest your worries to run it in the whole day rather than the player. I switch to PL Music II so as to run-in my new MS Genie Sub and MS Avant Centre. 
Added on November 18, 2008, 11:33 pmBut dare not to run it the whole day due to thunderstorm weather lately. Thunder may strike anytime. Err, I can only have few hour at night time after work. Getting very impatient right now. Imagine 36hours as recommended by MS. This post has been edited by mikapoh: Nov 18 2008, 11:33 PM |

QUOTE(Lone*Wolf @ Sep 18 2009, 11:26 AM) Your Centre's height is as good as it gets. Your rear speakers - will it be too high? My rear in fact just half a meter from my ear level. Should I raise some more? Do u think surround speaker toeing in better or face each at the back if adopting for 5.1? |

What is the Sub that you used?? Not the Avant MS309i?? It's MS Genie Sub 409 which powered by its internal 200w amp. Will upgrade to Velo next time....  |

QUOTE(podrunner @ Sep 19 2009, 05:37 PM) Because you asked, and I have the time...hehe. Re glare, I don't have much of a problem, as the light is behind the TV, and no windows on TV sides. Also, I mostly watch at night, so lightings are controllable. Podrunner, I can see another pair of QED cable on the floor and now get the idea of Cable Swapping............ |
