wow! my HT system rocks.

i installed my HT system last june, but usually whenever i use it, i keep it majorly toned down (sub off or turned way down, volume on the other speakers keep to a minimal level) out of courtesy for my neighbors (i live in an apartment, and i know the sound travels pretty well between the floors).

anyway, i just got the matrix as part of the last columbia house deal a couple weeks ago. so when i sat down to watch it yesterday afternoon, i decided it was time to cut loose.

i turned the volume up to 45 (it maxes out at 75, and i usually have it at ~30). i turned the sub to less than 1/4 of total volume. but damn.....did it ever rock. the sub was making the floor rumble -- i can't imagine what it would do turned up higher. the speakers were loud, powerful, and clear. the surround sound effects were pefect.

oh yeah, and of course the movie rocked.

btw, my setup:
Onkyo TX-DS595 receiver
Panasonic RP56 DVD
JBL NSP-1 Northridge speakers
JBL PSW-D112 sub (12", 250 watts)
AR-Pro cables
