In rosewood?

No it was a question from me to the others!

I still haven't decided and feel the quad set maybe a little small for my room.

I'm now looking at the Q acoustics and buying seperate speakers 1020i for the rears with 1030i's at the front

ye but I have small room remember...shouldnt need a lot of cable to start with...and besides I dont want to skimp on audio cables.

Ive decided im gonna bi-amp the front left and right speakers and bi-wire the centre using QED silver anniversary XT cable, then run QED micro to the rears....does that sound...sound? (lame attempt at humour there)

that's exactly what i've got.....!

you'd need a pretty big room to run them in. A massive step up from the 'style' type you've been looking at.

You've also pushed your budget up £250......opens up so many more avenues

that's exactly what i've got.....!

and what does it sound like...am I in for shock & awe?

 

[Richdog]

Good choice on the Quad Lites, I have them myself and they are truly awesome. I wouldn't personally go for an Onkyo 606 though... they run VERY hot (go to a Hi-Fi place and feel one, they are roasting) and aren't very musical. If you can afford it, go for the Denon 1909 instead.

 

[Oxide™]

lol Richdog - have to throw a spanner in the works
ok....is £100 more for a denon 1909 over an onkyo 606 worth the additional cost in your opinion?

 

[Richdog]

Yup, hence I said "if you can afford it".

 

[Oxide™]

Richdog those (cartographer-lin) wall brackets you use...they still work ok?

 

[Richdog]

Yeah they're ok but you need to REALLY tighten them or otherwise they will droop. Cheap and chyeerful though, and they do the job.

and what does it sound like...am I in for shock & awe?

pretty good considering my kit is 8 years old!

i'm looking at a new amp at the moment. Can get the onkyo 805 for a little more than a 606, but i'm tempted to stretch to the 875 or 905. I do like the look of the pioneer LX70 though.

which brackets do you use?

also, does your sub 'hum' when not in use?

 

[Richdog]

Ones from Mappe Lynne, were about 8 quid a pop I think. No hum fomr the sub either.

going to have to contact quad then.....this is the second sub which has a hum when it's sat doing nothing.

The room is 25 square metres....
