    New Member says hello

    Hello Everyone
    I just received my 1056 and 1060 today and I am in heaven, however most people know that there is never enough bass. I am running Bose speakers matched (701 front, 301 rear, center) looking for a sub rec to go along with my new purchase.) thank you

        Congratulations and welcome to Club Rotel!

        I don't mean to be rude, but Rotel and Bose?!! Budget permitting, you may have to look at some different speakers.

          I didn't want to be the first to point that out.

            thank you everyone for the welcome. I do have one question, why is everyone against Bose product? Am I missing something?

              I'll start if first: a large part of the price of their products, goes to marketing, and not to quality parts, R&D, etc. They are overpriced compared to what they offer.

                If your speakers sound good to you that's all that matters, but as thyname stated, Bose is a good marketer of speakers to the masses so that is mostly what you are paying for - marketing. Listen to some B&W's (600 series), Totem rainmakers, Paradigm, etc. all in the same price range and see what you think.

                  New member hello, and 2 silly Statement build questions.

                  Hello, long time lurker, first post.

                  I've been browsing DIY sites for a long time, then came across the Statements (search over)
                  I have also been reading and searching my eyes out on them.

                  This will be my first DIY build, I even taught myself the electronics basics, and...

                  As a new member and new B&W owner I'd just like to say hello. I've been lurking here for a couple of weeks while I've been contemplating buying a B&W 5.1 system. I've always liked the sound of B&Ws since first hearing them about 15 yrs ago. Last week I took the plunge and bought my local...

                  Hello,
                  I must say that I am excited to be amongst B&W brethren here!

                  I have a treated (Alpha Certified) 7.1 HT room that is entirely B&W speakers (more on that below). This room has gone through several upgrades. As many of us have had to face, I am due to do the HDMI upgrade....

                  After lurking a bit, I realized how interesting and educational this forum, and member's.
                  Speaker design wise, a newbie. With a little background of 2 builds, some 20 years ago. Weems was all I had and Xover help from Madisound.

                  I have a current project, and wish to take it slow....

                  new/used Elite 301 disc CD GIGA Changer
                  by Lex
                  I added one of these today to my HT. I had a Pioneer that was built for Radio Shack, still have it. But was always disappointed with the sound.

                  I think this changer has changed my mind about changers just from the first listen anyway.

                  I wanted to test it out tonight, since...
