I may be getting one of these next. I wonder how much modding will be needed to get it to drive a pair of Altec A7 VOTT's?

Well I got my DCM KX12 Series 2's today, and while there I got a Denon AVR-1910, a Sony STR-DC897, and a JVC TD-W217 tape deck for $90 more
Man these speakers are the shitz, more bass out of them then my 10" dedicated sub :O, and the clarity is so good that Im not even going to bother hooking up those Cambridge Soundworks Ensemble speakers I got, and it takes no volume at all to push these past ear bleed territory

Im a happy fat man right now but paying the price going to get this stuff 3 a half hours away for my back and head is killing me right now

My work in progress home theater setup. Not quite "audiophile" grade, but I think it sounds great.

-Denon AVR-1909
-Definitive ProCenter 100 and two ProMonitor 100s
-Insignia NS-RSW211

HTPC is connected to the TV through the AVR over HDMI.

I have a 10 inch RCA subwoofer in my closet that I'd like to dig out at some point.

I also want to set up surround speakers. I have some Panasonic SB-PM19 speakers that sound way better than they have any right to (I'd say they give the Definitives a run for their money). Just need more speaker wire and places to put them.

One of those moments caused an earthquake, I see.

I almost wish I had that kind of power but... I do get a little satisfaction when I feel it in my feet.. I had neighbors in an apartment that lived under me up until about 9 months ago.. I was nice and left the subs off during the week, but on weekends and holidays my good nature ended there, as I had from 7am to 11pm to do as I wished, as long as their pictured were not rattling off the walls. At higher levels opening the windows helped it breathe

I guess that's why they moved.

Edit:

I gave a Denon AVR 1909 to my sister last summer

Last time I lived in an Apartment ( 17th floor of the high-rise in DT Portland.) I had an Denon 5.1 surround system and well when I got to jamin out the security guard would come pound on my door telling me to turn it down!
I told him one day to well Piss off and left the door open and opened up the denon all the way for 30 min! He was pissed! I looked at him and said I PAY YOUR BILLS JUST REMEMBER THAT! (I know I am an ASS). I'm Like the DJ in The movie "The good's , Live hard sell hard."
When you pay $2.500.00 a month there is NO TELLING ME TO TURN IT DOWN! ONLY UP!
I since found the perfect HOME now no one can say Shitz! I can party as hard as I like when I like.

I had a kilowatt worth of subs when I was studying... in an older, rather stately house for students. Had people under me and a floor above me, beside me... Everything between the walls was wood construction

Fun times It didn't break windows, but I think some hidden defects were definitely created over there I was a total ass about it too. We had sort of two camps in the house; the bottom (basement) floor and the floors above it were separated. What started with some silly jokes ended up with DJ sessions on several evenings lasting several hours.... Bottom side was not invited

Those were the days... But yeah soundsystem culture in domestic areas really is a bad bad mix

BTW, if you think you got sub at home... Had a run in with these guys a few times... Pay them a visit someday... Intense!

This video shows just 'a few stacks' of what they can bring to a gig, all fully custom built speakers. Imagine that circle being a 360, multiple stacks and total of over 10k Watts of bass weight... often in rather small venues. I've had moments where a bass drop would punch the beer up from my cup...

Okay I finally think I got it.
I been racking my brains looking at all kinds of setup and trying to find a way to get surround sound and I think I just did that.
I put the Surround rear on the ceiling them be the DBX.

Here I have full Right and Left separation.

The speakers are stuck on the ceiling with this industrial strength Velcro don't think I am going to be peeling them off anytime soon, LOL.

So now my sectional sofa is no longer an issue!!!

View attachment 144991


That is an empty wooden subwoofer box.
View attachment 144993

This is one way to get around the sectional sofa!
I put the speakers on well stands.

And they said that you can't do surround sound with a sectional? Well they never met ME!
When you are an AUDIOPHILE Nothing is really Impossible maybe improbable but NOT impossible.

OH yeah and NOW I really do have the PERFECT sound! Surround SOUND!

Good job man! I know we argued over this but now you’re totally on the track that’s some serious surround. Films would be phenomenal with those huge rears in the mix!

Thanks for all the help and input it is working!

So I sold mt Yamaha RX V571 and all my speakers (it won't do 4k) Then bought a Samsung MS650 sound bar
Like it so much better, sounds better, you can add rear speakers. Amazing what they are doing with soundbars.
Honestly it cost 1/3 the price of my old system and sounds better. Maybe not as loud but for what I use it for its perfect

All those cables gone, it works with ARC so it turns on with the TV and responds to volume and Alexa

Old setup

 

[E-Bear]

Just a thrift store bargain for my tv setup.
I do live in apartment so I did not need more powerful than that. 25$ the set

Amp : Yamaha A-07
Center : Technics SB-C938
Pair : KLH Linear Dynamics model 403

Just got by mail these brand new in box vintage speakers that I will put inside 6x9 car boxes with the carpet over it. Just perfect for this amplifier and will do better than the speakers previously posted. Sparkomatic sk692

 

[DonaldD]

what cute systems you all have

 

[R-T-B]

I bet that cost like $1,500.00 easy!

Of course. With the pink treifoil on it, you know it's got to have a nuclear reactor coming from that era. Money well spent. Can play tunes and power the home.

 

[E-Bear]

what cute systems you all have

Better than nothing.

 

[freeagent]

Better than nothing.

Indeed, my speakers are pushing 20 years old but still sound good as a package. My amp is only 40x7.. so that would be the equivalent to 80x7? Its got that good ol NAD drive behind it. Not gonna lie but the Missions arent the best, but are good for tv and movies, and the Monitor Audio subs are pretty good, they wont knock the air from your lungs or make you want to poo, but it still pounds. I have a video somewhere of it keeping a plastic shopping bag suspended. I made the video when I was 29 or 30, Im 42 now, so not quite 2 days older than dirt yet.
