Custom designed pool theater system
If you wire them in parallel, you have to make sure the Pyle amp is able to drive that low impedance at higher volumes with no issues.  This can be a problem when you get down to 1 or 2 ohm with speakers wired in parallel.

A marine grade Pyle head unit is pretty much junk.  I would scrap that and look into a commercial type pro amp, such as Crown or QSC.  That being said, I'm not sure that 200 feet is really a problem, unless you're using really small guage like 18a... 
Anybody use tubes in their ht system?
I remember only one company that made a tube based HT preamp/processor.  I can't remember the exact model and google doesn't show any results, but I'm pretty sure it was made by Audio Design Associates (ADA).  I remember seeing pictures of it in m... 
Recommended USB Cables.
The Network Acoustics ENO cables look very good, but unfortunately they do not specificy of the conductors are solid-core or what awg size they are.  Most of all the USB cables I have seen are 28awg stranded wire.  At least ENO uses OCC copper, wh... 
Quantum Science Audio Thread
Go to a forum where the heavy hitters of this audio industry are, like Nelson Pass John Curl etc etc etc at diyaudio.com and see what happens to fusers over there. Yup, I've seen that and been there.  These types of forums are primarily engin... 
ORANGE Fuse rejected
There are currently "new" Furutech fuses but they come out of HKG and are terribly finished and fail--I'd avoid them. I took a look at it seems that these are from China sellers on ebay.  I suspect they are counterfeit products (which is very co...

Interesting take on the Furatech Rhodium. I tried one in my phono preamp and found it somewhat sterile adding a chromium color to the music. I have not tested Furutech in a phono preamp.  I'm not a turntable guy, but I have heard some amazing ...

ORANGE FUSE REVERSED.  Okay, I did reverse the direction on the Orange fuse and did critical listening.  While it did not have as an extreme effect as the original direction, it did still have a somewhat sterile harsh tone.  I even reversed the fu...

On fuses such as Synergistic or Furutech, I generally use the direction of the printing.

Does anyone know where is the ´´HOT  input ´´ on the LuminX1 power supply ? If you look at a standard IEC inlet (such as your Lumin X1 power supply).  There will be two power prongs and then a single ground prong at the bottom.  The HOT contact ...

In my experience, the Audiomagic fuses are not really directional. (well, they might be, but I have placed them forwards and backwards without hearing any significant differences). That being said, I have not done an A/B test where I reversed the ...

I pay specific attention to the direction of the fuse holder using a digital multi-meter to determine the "input" direction of the HOT/LIVE leg of the AC power cord.  I used the arrow printed on the ORANGE fuse to place it in the "direction" of th...

Please explain why members having a 9,000-12,000 posting history are unlikely to add anything constructive to this conversation. It's my opinion that they spend most of their time trolling and posting junk rather than providing useful constructi...

And a warning for anyone reading this, I won't respond to negative comments.  All are free to post/read, but keep in mind that the people who have 9,000-12,000 posts in their history are not likely to add anything constructive to this conversation... 
subwoofer with zero punch... help
As others have said, the "punch" you're looking for is more in the mid-bass. A sub is for lower frequencies. I don't know that I necessarily agree with this.  Yes, there is a definite "punch" in the midbass (somewhere between 100 and 150 Hz). ...
