Moniker: Charles Houston System Name: Home Theater #1 System Rev Date: 2000/10/31/17:10 System Rev IP: 216.192.101.44 Amp: Pathos Twin Towers integrated for front L+R.
Krell KAV500/5 for center, sides and surrounds Preamp: Lexicon MC-1 Speakers: Kharma Ceramique 2.0 front L+R. EgglestonAndra center channel. Four Triad In-Wall Golds for side and rear surrounds, mounted in ceiling. Two Carver Sunfire Signature subs. CDP:
NAD 515 CD changer Table: Denon DP-47F with Grado cartridge Other Sources: Rotel tuner
Pioneer cassette player Cables: Various, including Straightline Black Silk Other Stuff: Power Wedge. MIT Z-cords. Custom cabinetry. Tweaks: They may come later. Room Height: 11.5 Room Length: 45 Room Width: 30 Room Treatments: BIG room. Tons of glass. Yet acoustics in seating area may be satisfactory due to oriental rugs, lots of art, larger sofas, etc. Ceiling is finishe with patterns of moldings to reduce standing waves. Music Preferences: This is a multi-purpose room (living room, parties, theater) so the preferred music is usually something in the background or somewthing danceable. Goals: After the cabinetry arrived, the sound finally snapped into place. I have not yet spent a lot of time critically listening, but it's good in two-channel. It also sounds great when I used the oft-praised Lexicon Logic 7 circuit. System Strengths: Good quality gear. Flexible. Great front spakers. System Weaknesses: I need a better CD source than the NAD changer or the Toshiba DVD set. HT System - Sep/Int/None: Integrated TV: Pioneer Elite PRO 710HD HT Processor: see above HT Speakers: see above HT Sources: Toshiba SD 5109 DVD player
JVC S-VHS VCR
DishNetwork DBS Other HT Gear: Using DISH Network box for HD sources. HT Comments: Lots of ambient light ruled out front projectors. The Pioneer Elite is superb. The smartest purchase was a pair of very comfortable sofas with relatively low arms. That way my wife and I can each sprawl while we watch. System URL: http:// Other Comments: History Array:
