    And in line with that thought, if I ever use the phrase "not to sound ****", you can take it to its full implications: I'm not ****, I don't wanna be ****, and I don't want you to think I am.
    It's something one uses when they are not secure about their sexuality. They are not very masculine and afraid someone might think they are ****.

    I'm pretty secure. I know which I am, and I know which I prefer. But you can't always convey that in a forum.

    WTF happened here? This thread spiraled into the cyber abyss really quick. I say let this topic rest and never bring it back up. There are a few **** members here that I respect and like very much, and this is the type of crap that can go nowhere but down. Let it go and get back on audio topics in this forum, please :)

    i don't want to sound **** or anything = I don't want to sound like I'm outside the boundries of what most of you here would consider to be a mainstream audio enthusiast based solely on the music that I'm listening to at the moment...not that there's anything wrong with that!!

    Everyone happy now? :rolleyes:

    I can say that in my small to medium sized room that with the 15's, I acutally have my sub off! If I turned it on it was only at a very low volume to sorta fill a tiny gap in the low end.

    Congrats I think you will love it. Personally, I would wait & see how you like the sound of your amps & Denon before rushing out to get tubes.

    Right now some of the guys think that tubes are the greatest thing since sliced bread. Maybe they are & maybe they aren't, but you have not even checked out what you have coming before thinking of getting something else.

    Give your new set up a chance before changing what you don't even know that you like yet.

    ^ definitely. Honestly, I am trying to figure out just exactly why I need my Denon in the future if I go all seperates. It is their middle to low line product.

    I hear you. I would love an all Rotel separates setup, but I can't afford it, and waiting around saving for the one I wanted, by the time I would be ready to buy it would be obsolete.

    For me a receiver/w pre-outs & all the latest bells & whistles with separate amps is doing an admirable job. Also separates are not updated as quickly as receivers & cost considerably more money to be obsolete so soon.

    The biggest improvement to my system was getting separate amps, and I mean SS amps not tubes.

    Enjoy your most recent purchases, and see how you & your wife like them. And keep us updated.

    the outlaws will be hear tommorrow!

    I can't even bring myself to turn on the 15's until they arrive. di I already mention that I have even now turned off my sub because the 15's provide plenty of bass?

    I'll have pictures shortly.

    Most of the replies given in this forum lack much in the way of consideration. Many of them are actually based on mis-information, and the propagation of it. Yes, it is indicative of the nature of Club Polk unfortunately.

    After serious consideration, quite a bit of research and taking extra care to discern the facts, I have come to the conclusion and respectfully submit that Polkfan is a F*****G Troll.

    Well it looks like Polkfan has gone back to edit out every single post he has ever made here(all 15 of them in almost 2 years, he must have had a wealth of pertinent info to share with the rest of the members, huh). I guess he must have asked a question about a piece of gear he just bought and didn't get the answers he wanted to here or the glowing review he was expecting. :rolleyes:
