Price Paid:
$250.00
from Soundcity.com Summary: I may be two years late to posting this, but who cares, anyway, I have this bad boy connected on my Yamaha HTR-5280 paired w/ Polk-Audio speakers & wired w/ Acoustic Research wire/subwoffer cables (a little bit cheaper than Monster but same quality & performance). I agree w/ most of the reviewers complaints regarding hums, the pops when you turn it off & the vibration if gets to low.... With some tweaking and alterations, I must say I will be keeping this bad boys for some time.... I recently replaced the plastic screws w/ steel ones (size is 1/4 x 1 1/4 coarse thread screws) added a rubber bumper w/ holes in the middle to reduce vibration, fellas, I tell you, a BIG improvement compared when those plastic screws where there, that is if you have hardwood floor. About the hums., it only happens occasionally, so it's pretty much tolerable... The popping, just leave it on, it shuts down automatically when not in use, not 100% shutdown though, just turn it off when you know you wont be using it for a while.... Lastly, the vibrations, there's a little bit left, but then again, tweak & do the alteration that I mentioned above, you'll be smiling like me.... Strengths: Price & Performance..... Weaknesses: read my review........
