Why? I'd have my straw with me ;)

I'd try a straw instead of a vacuum. Just be gentle. I heard the tape trick works well too but you have to be careful not to push it further in.

I have the PSW505 and I love it. Got it for $300 a little while back. I don't care much for the current line of Polk subs though, wouldn't trade my 505 for any of them probably.

Didn't look into...

Thanks, I'm very happy with it.

Ya I had a PSW505 sub and RTi8 fronts from before. Everything above is just what I bought to finish off the HT.

Depending on your setup you could always build a sort of box for your R50 surrounds to get them above ear level a bit more. Granted I doubt you can get it 2 feet above your ear level.

I use RTi...

Got RTi A3's for the surrounds a couple months back and just picked up my CSi A6 last week!

Just out of curiosity, why the "Emotiva hate"? I don't own one, but I almost never hear bad things about them.

Ok sure that's a better idea. Ok here are the options I'm looking at:

RTi A1, RTi A3, TSi100, FXi A4

Disregarding price, which of the previous models would be the best quality choice to go...

Hey everyone,

So The RTi A3 bookshelf speakers are on sale right now, but before I pull the trigger I'm wondering if that's the best match for my RTi8 fronts? Is there anything better (RTi A1,...

If you're looking to improve load times, the PS3 beats all (I think) standalone players on the market by a large margin. Even if you're not into gaming, the PS3 is a fantastic media center as well. ...

Wow, surprising results in this poll. But I suppose judging from the community/type of website, the results are accurate.
I must be one of the youngest here then! (21 years old)

I have the PSW505. I'm using the sub pre-out on my receiver and connecting to a Y-adapter which connects to the filtered inputs of my sub.
This is what I was told by a rep at the store I bought my...

Is it possible to find out if your sub is out of phase(polarity) by hooking up a AA battery to it?

If you connect a wire from the (-) terminal of the speaker to the (-) end of a AA battery, then...

I tried the S550 for a while and it is very nice. As far as Blu-Ray PQ/AQ goes, both models would likely be identical. I think you can get the Sony for quite a bit cheaper though. It also decodes...

Oh so if I use the filtered inputs I need to adjust the LPF on the sub and not on the receiver?
I did the opposite, I have my RCA cable going into a Y adapter then into the filtered inputs, but I...

Sorry to highjack this topic TC, but I have the exact same question about filtered and unfiltered inputs.

The rep(:rolleyes:) I talked to said that if I plug into the Filtered inputs (the 2 RCA...

^This is correct.

The PS3 is the most full featured player out right now.
It can internally decode DTS-HD MA and Dolby TrueHD then pass them as a 5.1 OR 7.1 LPCM signal.


The only things...

Oh sorry, yes I do. Forgot that's not in my sig. Rti8's and Onkyo 805.

Edit: I should also mention, they're in a smallish room.

That's what I told him. I said he should stop using them right now until he gets an amp (and as it turns out, a pre-processor since 605 has no pre-outs).
He actually wasn't going to buy those...

At 0dB my RTi8's are just blasting. Way too loud for me. But it still sounds clear and very good. I use my PS3 for all audio output.

For music, I usually have it at -25dB when other people are...

Someone I know owns this combination. He says it doesn't sound very good, the sound is "distorted".
Now I know that the LSi25's are 4ohm rated speakers and the Onnkyo 605 is not 4ohm certified. Is...

Very close to my setup (I have the 805 not the 875) and I absolutely love it! Good buys man!

Awesome thanks I'll give it a try.

There is no threading on the bottom of the sub so does that mean I have to make my own (use an anchor or something)?


Front firing.

It's sitting on the carpet now, so if I put a piece of heavy...
