My friend's SPL1200R encountered some problem with hissing sound coming from the woofer. Sent back for checking. Now he is using his B&W ASW650. So, I didnt got the chance to bring this B&w sub home for a test.

callmevil, you crank ur AVR to 0dB?! Siao! My ears cldnt take it at that deafening level. Even if I cld, my HM will issue stern warning for 'Domestic Noise Violation Act'

lol htleg! i lol'd irl.. ure HM so much power meh?? haha makes me scare of marriage more haha but u must try pearl harbor at 0db.. it is SOooo awesome and its not deafening laa its good.. haha and DADDY LIKES BASS !! lol

about the spl, damnn!! should go to me imo..

if u crank dobitruhd hor

can crank to -ve12/10

very nice the sound

try on ayam_legend..

when the lion proaching demm ganas

kekeke

i m waiting for my cloverfield to test dobitruHD

Even if my HM approves, I wldnt want to annoy my immediate neighbour Unless, I moved to a Semi-D pad (dreaming) and build a detached HT room (16'x26') on the available land. Then again, 0dB is still a burden to my ears. Now, at -27dB, it is freaking loud. Maybe, I need a bigger room to crank higher

My max tried was -5db, forget what show laio...but it's awesome

the latest one i tried while I'm on MC at home was Eyes Wide Shut at -12db....tell you, I never knew a dialog heavy film can be so involving with the ambient sound...many many things can be heard.....

0db with cast away... try! the closest neighbours are like 50m away from my place so.. its all good..

ok sifus, need to know what would happen to my AQ experience if i cusion my walls? (eggtrays / or normal cusion)

Ni betul-betul MC ke?

My previous Denon 2802 had once on 'reference' level. -3dB. But, only for a movie.

A lot of ppl tell me that we need to crank up to reference level (some refers as 0dB). But, prolong exposure to such high level of sound pressure (reads : noise to some) will quickened the process of deafness.

bro htkaki... upgrade to RXV1800, business good ah...

My Pioneer 917 vol is between -94 db to -1db..........so what is the ref level??? Normally I use -40db only. Tq for the infor.

my denon AVR1803 and 3300 are too loud even i crank them to -30-40db,how to live at 0db....WOW

Me usually now -21dB. Crazy time -17dB.

I might want to sell off my RX-V1800 to get Onkyo SR875 as someone offering 875 at very very attractive price. Wonder how much could 1800 fetch considering it is less than a month old.

define very very attractive price....

in the region of RM4K.

damn that's an excellent price.. just ordered mine for 5.5k!! good for u bro... better snatch it up swiftly.

what's your whole setup? Care to share?

Onkyo SR875 better than RX-V1800? Same league as 3800?

230W rite?

sure... just ordered 5.1 Canton Chrono speaker set (507 + 505 + 505 + 525). Speakers arriving this weekend so i ordered the Onkyo 875 to pair with them. Actually bought the 875 without any audition, just based on several good reviews in whathifi forum.

Source is PS3 for now and using existing Samsung CRT 29" TV

Why stick with my TV? Because this is my temporary setup as i'm living in my rental apartment while my actual apartment is ready in Dec so.... just enjoy sound quality 1st.

really looking forward to my new toyz.. hope they don't disappoint

Yes, it is better. It is in the league of 3808, 3800 and 8002
