from mall featuring harmo Summary:
I paid 49 sinapore dollars each for the pair. S$30 dollars for shipping to my house. To say that the HT1S is a beefy sub is an understatement. My active AV marantz preamp/dp870, provides commanding control and ultra deep base. I use tnt triple T braided cat 6 speakerwire to all my speakers. In Stereo, the pre has sub db level controls to adjust how much sub you want to FEEL. I am runnning Mains on the Yamaha. The subs are connected to the RL of the Rotels. Center and Surrounds complete the other 3 channels on the Rotel. I listen to DVD Audio using my Pioneer DVK-88. For this I turn on the dp870 which puts the AV600 into bypass. DVDA is superb as it puts you in the middle of the performance. For HT, Movies like The Hulk, Bourne Identity, Armagedon, Final Fantasy and any other action movie is jaw droppingly amazing. Better than any movie theater I've ever heard - I jump to my feet sometimes in shock and alarm. I love my music so now I am thinking about upgrading the dvd player to an universal pioneer that plays both sacd and dvda but I will also have to upgrade the preamp as well because the 5.1/7.1 channel outputs are from the universal player. Will have to get a preamp with with firewire input to cut down on the rca cables. Probably going for used 1066/1098. As long as I have the space, never going to need to upgrade the ht1s. This sub rattles my windows and cabinet doors when I crank up the volume! Strengths:
Cheap but sound quality is excellent if you have the extra channels to power these boxes. Weaknesses:
You can't be a gypsy with this gear. Similar Products Used:
