    Anyone have or know about Amrita Audio speakers?

    I recently picked up a set of allegra towers. So far they sound fantastic. Does anyone have the specs or any other info about them? The one pic I can find that has the specs is nearly impossible to read.

    Ensemble by Henry Kloss

    I just picked up a set of the original ones without switches on the satellite speakers and 2 passive subs as well as a set of the matching surround speakers. I figure 50.00 for everything was worth a gamble. They all are workng, I just haven't set up the entire system yet to give them an...

    Avoid The Stereo Exchange in Chicago.

    He will also give you a realistic time frame on when things will be fixed up front. I think the longest I had to wait ever was around a two months which they told me up front.

    Avoid The Stereo Exchange in Chicago.

    Sorry to hear about your experience with them. I don't have much to add besides you are better off driving a couple hours or less north instead to appleton, WI for service. My friends and I have been using sound world in appleton for service for years. Their tech Rick listens to what he's told...

    Acoustic Research Holographic Imaging M.5

    I have a pair of .5's as well and would agree they are pretty great considering the price size driver size etc. Good bass for their size. I also found a spare .5 at goodwill a while back. So I have some spare parts should I need them.

    main system

    Nice system's. I like seeing everyone's work benches or work areas as well. I do have to say i feel sorry for that power conditioner under that huge Rotel amplifier. looks like an elephant riding on top of a small dog if i were to make a comparison. LOL

    Thinking about going with all active speakers

    One company that actually makes very nice amplified speakers for surround sound is meridian. They also make nice surround processors as well to match up with the rest of the system.

    Bose AM-5 Sub

    They sound bad when you don't have anything else playing along with them. they sound ok when paired with a smaller set of speakers like some minimus 7's or something similar. I would think it has to throw out some lower midrange as their cube speakers really are not much more than glorified...

    Bose AM-5 Sub

    i opened p a later acoustimass 7 woofer set up that i got and a similar crossover/protection circuit is in place for the satellites and i believe the woofers run full range on mine and the bandpass box most likely dictates the woofers mechanical "crossover point".

    Canton CT-800

    I have quite a bit of listening experience with a set of ct-1000's which were excellent IMHO. The factory canton stands had them tilted back a bit and were around 10"-12" tall. Your speakers are a smaller size and should most likely be positioned a bit higher. I don't think anything really...

    Another Original Large Advent find

    Nla woofers for sure in original large advent beveled walnut cabinets. One of the owners along the way could have called advent for repairs due to bad surrounds and received a newer set of ola woofers to replace the original masonite woofers. They sound very similar and as long as you have...

    Pioneer SB22 vs. ?

    I agree. Worst listening environment/display ever, they may as well be playing from the bottom of a toilet as they all sound like s$#t there.

    Are MS-50's real "Missions"?

    Sounds cool. My brother has my set of ms-50's for rear surrounds in his 5.1 set up and they do an excellent job there. I agree with others good sound not a ton of bass but good for their size.
