Can someone please let me know which way is best for sound quality as far as using 2 main speakers with a subwoofer for music listening:
1) sending the signal to a subwoofer directly from the pre amp (subwoofers with RCA IN and OUT connections)where the crossover is set at say 80Htz and then the filtered signal sent to the amp (via RCA OUT)to feed the main speakers or,

Aloha,

Summer, summertime is here...

Just gonna go drive 'round town with all the windows down; but first, wanted some input from my fellow audio nerds:

What are the songs of summer?

For moi, there are three seminal songs:

1) Summer, by War. This would rank one through three, really. It's that iconic.

Ain't no summer song finer.

2) Two words: Mungo Jerry!

3) For some odd (most likely drug related) reason: Plastic Bertrand's "Ca Plan Pour Moi."

(This is best played on vinyl, please.)

Aloha,

Just got the downstairs rig up and running again, and couldn't wait to toss on some...

...pardon my baser instincts...

1) School of Fish - Three Strange Days (as an aside, is this a religious song?)

This tune is compressed, but it's very "clean" sounding.

No, it's not proper Hi-Fi, but it's a nice tune to play on the Hi-Fi.

Next up was...

2) The Burning Sensations - Belly of the Whale.

Why waste space on your site by posting this review? Not even a picture of what they looked like. Why not a past review of something someone might actually be using? This is just wrong. Anyone who bought Canon Speakers, I would surmise, trashed them long ago, or is not a reader of this site. If there is anyone out there using these speakers please reply. Again, WHY?

In the late 80's I purchased satellite speakers with a subwoofer. I decided to make my own stands, but first I corresponded with the speaker manufacturer to see if my proposed stands were good enough. I got the goahead so got 8" square concrete blocks. I put a square of wood on the bottom with some nails poking up into the block. I placed an 18" galvanized pipe in the center and poured concrete to hold it all together. I screwed on a plumbing pipe gizmo that had four holes for screws to attach a piece of wood. The speakers had four holes in the bottom to secure them.
