QUOTE(htkaki @ Jul 20 2008, 11:42 AM) Erm... RM 1500 for floorstanders, RM 400 for center + surrounds, 12 feet of audioquest-cinemaquest G2 RM 120 (RM10 per feet), Wharfedale powercube 12+ RM 1900. I only heard abt the cable and sub brand. For the speakers, i really never heard b4. The salesperson told my father it was actually producing high-end audio products yrs back, then now starts producing cheap audio product. he claims it is a US company, but then the quality built like cap ayam to me, not solid at all. The spec at the back of speakers also like simply write only. i can never find any info from google.So, it is overpricing for all those equipment above? |

Finally tested the sub, after a week of running in. Watch Die Hard BD, boy, this disc has got a lot of LFE.
I've decided to use the reference mode (classical/Jazz) for all sources (movies, music, games). Firstly, the movie mode got too much delay to it, the bass seems to drag too much. Some people might like that, so it's not a downside to the sub. But the reference mode makes up to it, and gets low as I hoped for. Secondly, the reference mode sounds, to my surprise, very good with music. Every beat is on target, and solid. Didn't think this sub can be this musical. Lastly, I want to avoid using the remote. I was looking for the correct settings and wants to keep it like that as along as possible. I've got too many remote already, let's hope Logitech releases the RF version of their Harmony One soon, and my wallet is filled by that time. PS: NHK? Isn't that the Japanese national TV station? |

You can use the remote to learn all other remotes' signal. But, wont be as user friendly as Logitech. |
