Re: What are your mains?

207.110.38.42

I have a Sony V444ES receiver,with a Sony DVP-S9000ES and a SCD333ES. both the Receiver and DVP-S9000ES have dedicated Ultimate Outlets. The UO for the receiver feeds off power ports and a Mini-Lab cable. all other PCs are DIY... i use a pair of Audience AU24 IC for the DVP-S9000ES. My mains are Acoustic Research HO308s.. sweet little monitors.. The surrounds and center are Boston Acoustics VRM series speakers... I have some sound dampening sheets on anything that rattles and have my system VERY isolated from the speakers.. I use a bass trap and a Richter Scale III to attenuate the room resonances at about 48Hz (only EQ i employ!) and some wall treatments to minimize reflectance... The room is odd shaped and the system is cornered so i don't create a lot of parallel surface issues... My system is sounding very nice for being a mid-fi grade. Jazz/Classical sounds very natural and there. I am very surprised at the sound the V444ES can produce.

I live between Lakeside and Alpine but work in Sorrento Valley and used to work in Torrey Pines... I ain't a city boy, so i enjoy going back to the rural home i have on 4 acres with much wildlife (including 3 little wild ones of my own!).

Biggest benefit of living in the boonies? the stereo get's as loud as i want and the Coyotes are the only ones that complain...Once!

Trained the kids from the start NOT to be sensitive to sounds for bedtime!

Good luck with Gregg, he really does a good job.
