SnapAV Episode 900 Series In-Wall Loudspeakers First Look [0.10] by tom,February 22, 2011 05:55

Are the new SnapAV Episode 900 speakers designed for the custom installation market? You bet. But we love seeing features such as overbuilt back boxes, separate EQ adjustments for bass, mids, and the tweeter with a compensation for perforated drop screens, and ribbon tweeters. The EX-HT900-ISLCR-6 is a little too wide for horizontal placement without cutting in to a couple of studs but other than that, we love how both this and the ES-HT950-IW-7 look on paper. But, as is often the case with in-wall speakers, only you'll know how cool they are. Everyone else will wonder where that sound is coming from.

Ken Stein's EHX Adventures [0.10] by ken,March 22, 2007 12:02

I approached EHX a little differently this year. I spent more time in the demo rooms and less time on the showroom floor. Frankly because the showroom is more about installations and the demo rooms are more about consumer products and that’s what we do at Audioholics.

UK Family has HT Kit Confiscated over Noise Complaints [0.10] by david,March 21, 2009 03:00

Apparently local city authorities in Rochdale, Lancashire have too much time on their hands and not enough real crime so they raided the house of a local family and confiscated the TV and sound system over a few noise complaints.

Samsung HT-TX72T Home Theater System [0.10] by jim,January 06, 2008 01:05

First time home theater users may appreciate the simplicity provided by a Home Theater in a Box, and the Samsung HT-TX72T is a great starting point. With a low profile 5 disc changer, included speakers, and excellent remote control, this system is a breeze to install and configure. Since the Samsung HT-TX72 can typically be found on sale, it's a good value for a system with this many features. For well under $400 this system seems like a good match for those looking to "accessorize" their new flat panel television with a fully-featured surround audio setup.

Onkyo HT-S9100THX Home Theater System First Look [0.10] by clint,February 20, 2010 22:05

You want home theater? Full functionality doesn't get much cheaper than the Onkyo HT-S7200. This is 7.1-channel system with nearly all the trimmings - all packed into a nice, convenient box you can give to somebody... or, yourself. This home-theater-in-a-box includes a full A/V receiver and complete 7.1 speaker package. The very reasonable $899 retail price of the HT-S7200 makes it a compelling buy for those looking to move their way firmly into the surround sound experience. The package includes the dedicated A/V receiver, a 10-inch powered subwoofer, Front tower (floorstanding) speakers, a Center channel, and two pairs of Surround and Surround Back speakers. It's a highly upgradable system, and one that will meet the needs for almost anyone looking to break into the home theater experience.

Niles iC2 Remote Control Review [0.10] by jclarke,December 12, 2008 15:22

The Niles iC2 remote control offers an option for those of us who prefer hard button remotes over the sea of touchscreen-based remotes that have flooded the market. For years, the original IntelliControl remote from Niles was a reference standard for higher-end tabletop remotes. But as TiVo, DVR's, Satellite and Cable became the norm in most home theater setups, the venerable IntelliControl began to show it's age (and weakness) as it ran out of buttons for the new features found on the remote controls belonging to this new breed of electronics. Last year Niles introduced a completely reworked version of the IntelliControl, appropriately called the iC2, which answers the call for a bulletproof, hard-button remote control.
