Home Audio

One thing I remember from my old skool electronics, it is good to have a “powered subwoofer”. The subwoofer itself has a built-in amp and has its own power supply. It does not get power from the main receiver, except the audio signal feed, which is the mid to low frequency(bass). Some receivers have unamplified subwoofer output. In there you will plug the powered subwoofer. In a HTIB and many plug n play 5.1 system, all the 6 amp(if analog) will divide the power supply , sure the bass amp will need more supply(in current/ampere) but its starved, so a separate subwoofer amp with supply is good(powered sub). In that way the main amp’s power supply is only divided among the 5 amp for surround speakers resulting in a crisp sound…while the bass is a separate..you will have a fast react bass.
If I’m correct, the pic thai posted is a Denon receiver..and I drool at the logans. LOL!

Good eye. Denon AVR-4306. It acts as my pre-amp and processor. I have a separate amp to handle the Logans, which are very hard on amps.

I love the sound of MLs!! They are so smooth! There was only one setup that I've ever hear that bested the MLs, and that was a set of Tannoys hooked up to a Cary single-ended tube amp with a tube CD transport. That was probably more because of the amp and cd transport than the speakers though..

And as far as BOSE.. Better Off w/ Something Else

Nothing yet. I just saved my money.

I don't work while going to school so it's hard for me to make myself spend that kind of money, even though I have it.

Pratt, being a college kid myself, a nice sound system really isnt a high priority at this stage, seeing as we only really have our own bedrooms (atleast i do), now what i am investing in right now is tools, hand tools for working on the house and cars, i feel you should look into doing this too, hand tools will outlive all your cars, houses and especially electronics!
 
Well just got a new tv to add to the arsenal (well my 32" crapped out so I opted for a new 47") and just added a Xbox 360 along w/ the PS3 and SNES

The lil silver speakers are not hooked up, lol, just speaker stands at the moment till I get my other set of Polk monitor 20's for my rear channel then I'm looking for a good center and sub (the amp is a Rotel 6 Channel)
