    Axiom M3 In-Ceiling Speakers

    Does anyone here own or at least listened to the Axiom M3 in-ceiling speakers? The reason I am asking is I may have just 'accidentally' purchased a Denon X6300H and with that comes my first time being able to use ATMOS. Since I have Axiom already it seems logical to look there for options...

    dSLR Tips and Tricks... Or How The Hell Do I Use This Thing

    So to add to my many expensive hobbies (home theater, guitars, computers, running, and baseball), I just picked up my first ever entry level dSLR (Nikon D3300). This is my first higher end camera of any kind so I am completely raw. I bought a couple books and watched a bunch of videos but I am...

    First HTPC

    I decided to quit playing with toys (Roku, Google/Android TV, Chromecast) and get my first ever HTPC. Since none of my toys support passing HD audio thru to my AVR, I figured it was time to get something better. To start this adventure I ordered a Zotac ZBOX from NewEgg. I also ordered 8 GB...

    Presenting the Willow Home Theater 3.0

    Version 3.0 of my home theater is (almost) complete. I have a new recliner coming tomorrow and I'll be done. Since the last update: The old 61" JVC HD-ILA LCoS TV has been replaced with a 60" LG Plasma. I have replaced the Onkyo 705 with a Denon X4000. The SVS PB12 Ultra/2 has been replaced...

    Just Following the (Plasma) Crowd

    All this talk about Plasma makes me want to buy one. I have a 42" Panasonic that was used in my bedroom for a few years (currently broken) but my main HT TV is a 5 year old LCoS from JVC. So with this in mind (and the peer pressure from this forum :blush: ), I started looking for something...

    Center Speaker Bracket on TV

    Does anyone have experience with a center speaker bracket that hooks on top of your TV? I am considering this one to sit my Axiom VP150 on top of my 61" JVC HD-ILA TV (LCoS RP). I'm just wondering how safe they are.

    Single SVS PC13 Ultra vs Two PC 2000's

    For the first time in many years I am beginning to change some of my home theater gear. It is time to retire my old SVS PB12 Ultra/2 (going to a new home soon). I am looking at either replacing it with the PC13 or getting 2 PC 2000's. For reference, The Ultra/2 was big enough to shake my...

    I was looking at the Onkyo 9300THX HTIB..

    Hi Shannon, The advice is still the same (separates are better) but the prices have increased a bit for the Fluance speakers (They are now $374). Fluance also has new speakers that I have never heard and cannot if they are any good. Also, since my post a new company called Lava has been...

    TIVO Premiere

    My 3 new TIVO Premieres I pre-ordered earlier this month are set to ship tomorrow. These will be my first TIVOS since I had DirecTV. About 9 months ago I switched to FIOS and I HATE the DVR's. I'm super excited to replace these clunkers with something that actually makes sense. Anyone else...

    Need New TV - $500 Budget

    My old Hitachi RP finally died for good this time (replaced convergence IC's a few years back). This old set has been serving as a TV in my son's room for the past 3 years. I need to replace it, but since it will be used primarily for PS3 and XBox 360, I'm not looking to spend a fortune (plus...

    Master Audio and TrueHD on Same Disc

    I rented the Rolling Stones "Shine a Light" Blu-Ray the other day. I found it strange that it contained both Master Audio and TrueHD sound tracks. I don't understand why. Do they sound different? I thought it would not matter which HD format you include since they are both lossless. So wouldn't...

    New Axioms

    I finally did it. Yesterday I placed my order for 7 new Axiom speakers (2 M60's, 1 VP150, and 4 QS8's). I will pair these with my SVS PB12 Ultra/2 I purchased from HTF member Christian Le (thanks again, the sub is AWSOME). I've hesitating for a few weeks since I could not make up my mind...

    Which SVS

    Last year I purchased my first Home Theater. Due to budget limitations, and the fact that I bought everything at once, I opted for cheaper Fluance speakers and used my old Velodyne sub. Now it is time to upgrade. I'm starting with the sub and then new speakers. My budget limits me a SVS PCi sub...
