Thanks Mike and also John; looking forward to our new 77" TV and speakers. Couldn't have done it without Both of your inputs as well as others that gave input too. Thanks again for your time in steering me in the right direction. Mahalo, Robbie

Hi Mike, Thanks for trying to help me get the best of my system but I think we're going to stay with where the Bose is according the Best Buy as it would be easiest just to Remove/Replace. They said that using the tilt/turn wall mounts the Installation Team will do their best in ensuring the...

Hi Mike and John, Thank you so much for all your input about where/how in the proper environment my speakers should be placed. When you walk our house from the Garage, our Kitchen and Family Room is one Big Open living space with no Walls. Our Buffet Countertop where we sit for meals facing the...

Thanks for your suggestions; I appreciate it. ~Robbie

Hi Mike, If you don't mind me trying to explain my set up, True Seating area is 11.5' Wide x 19.25' Deep; TV to Sofa is 16'. Two speakers to Left and Right behind Sofa; Left Front is on Left Wall leading to upstairs and Right Front is to the Right of the TV. Therefore, if I use keyhole, it will...

Hi Mike Up, Is the 'stand offs' the Grill that you are referring too that seem to have like a 'funnel cone' pointing towards the speaker where the keyhole is at the top? So is that 1/2" enough to be considered keeping off the wall? Right now my Bose seem to be able to swivel as it is double...

Aloha Mike Up, Thank you so much for your continued support and comments/information; I appreciate the information about the dry wall anchors and you using the key slot mounts. I wasn't sure if I could use that as I thought I read that the speaker shouldn't be mounted 'flush against a wall' that...

Aloha John, Yes, thanks . . . in fact the SB-1000 was $100 cheaper than Martin Logan. Customer service was excellent at SVS; I was talking with someone who used to work at Best Buy and told him about my problems with Geek Squad and provided me some Tips. He also was the person that told me...

Aloha John Rice and Mike Up, Thank you for your quick response and suggestion on the Wall Mounts; I really appreciate it. You mentioned that you personally would have gone with the SVS SB-1000 which Best Buy is selling, which is the PRO and it is $599.99 vs $699.99 that I paid for the Martin...

Hi Mike Up and John Rice, I forgot to THANK both of you for talking me out of the Cambridge Audio Minx; I really appreciate it. Mahalo, Robbie

Hi John Rice, Thank you so much for your comments about the subwoofer; I just saw your Post after I sent mine. Are you also saying that my Martin Logan should be fine and that I don't need to worry at all as the Geek Squad should know how/what to do in Testing/Setting up all my components? As...

Aloha Mike Up, Thank you for still being a GEM; I really appreciate your time and especially your knowledge. You stated 'You have a complex subwoofer which is unlike most. It does its own calibrations. A subwoofer can go in the low bass with a limit. The sub also has a limit on how high in the...

Hi Mike Up and John Rice, Thank you so much for continuing to help me. Although we are able to Return items if we don't like them and that Best Buy Geek Squad will be the ones to install what we buy; I don't think Best Buy would like to have us do trial and error. Since we don't know how to...

Hi John Rice and Mike Up, I stayed up all night trying to research and read about the Cambridge Minx and was sooooo SAD to see that you folks seem to be abandoning me as I didn't mean to offend any of you with wanting to change to Mini Cube speakers like the Bose. As mentioned, we are sooooo...

Aloha Everyone, First off, thanks Sam Posten for your comments about life of TV. It's me the CLUELESS Senior again and I would really appreciate it if Wayne, Mike Up, John Rice, etc. can help comment one last time as I read through all my posts and your replies and just have a few more...
