I would like a HT Audio Forum in CP...

Combine it with the subwoofer/bass management forum.
Rename the header: Home Theater/ Set-Up
No need to add another forum
Noooooooooo....
Bass management needs to be on its own. Thats a subject that gets too indepth, to be mixed in a general HT forum.Monitor 7b's front
Monitor 4's surround
Frankinpolk Center (2 mw6503's with peerless tweeter)
M10's back surround
Hafler-200 driving patio Daytons
Tempest-X 15" DIY sub w/ Rythmik 350A plate amp
Dayton 12" DVC w/ Rythmik 350a plate amp
Harman/Kardon AVR-635
Oppo 981hd
Denon upconvert DVD player
Jennings Research (vintage and rare)

But there is very little activity compared to other forums. I understand the info is important, but it's a low activity forum and it is directly related to HT; very little if any subwoofer questions regarding 2-channel. Makes perfect sense to me.
I mean I could beg for an SDA forum since a majority of the post in the Vintage Speaker section are SDA related, but they also fall under the larger Vintage Speaker heading.
Same with subwoofer and subwoofer management it falls squarely in the HT segment.
If they cant be combined then I say forget about it.
H9"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment.

My SDA's have better full stage presence than my buddies 7.1 HT, IMHO of course .

Why be so negative about it? If you look at the threads, there's A LOT of HT related topics/questions, probably more than 2 Channel.
Here's what I would do (like anyone cares...I know):
1.-I would eliminate the "electronics" forum. I always have trouble anyway when I need to post something related to 2 channel, which normally is about a piece of electronics (a preamp, amp, source, etc). How many threads are there in the 2 channel forum that is NOT about electronics??? I think we don't need both.
2.-Create a HT forum.
There. A 2 channel forum and a HT forum._________________________________________________

I really don't care, but I don't think another forum is nec. I have a hard time keeping up with all the ones we already have."Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience.

I see nothing wrong with the way it is now. If you have trouble finding something, the search feature works pretty well here."He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." Friedrich Nietzsche

Those against the idea, or suggesting a compromise, do you realize how ridiculous you look?
You're basically arguing against having to scroll your mouse another 1/4" when you come to Club Polk. -

No, because all the crap that gets posted in the elctronics forum; like My Oppo doesn't work will now clutter the 2-channel forum. A question about a DVDp should be in the electronics forum not the 2channel forum and it could possibly go in the HT forum, but not all posters are going to put it in the HT forum.

NO, post it in the 2 channel forum since it's about a 2-channel set-up. Believe me I've been on here awhile and we do get those questions but not very often.

You're right, I wouldn't know where to post a "help me with my DVDP settings" question thread. Especially since I have a 2-channel system run by HT components like DVDP, receiver, HTPC, and projector.polkaudio RT35 Bookshelves

Well, If we had a HT forum, the DVD question would go in the HT forum. The problem would be with those people that have a 2 CH Home Theater.....those are the ones that would clutter the 2 channel forum. :D:p_________________________________________________

That would be me and I don't consider 2-ch to be a Home Theater :D. I don't think we should elminate the Electronics forum, but if we had a dedicared HT forum the traffic there would go down.
But, and I'm not sure who suggested this, if we combined the Subwoofer/Bass Management forum with a new HT forum and called it Home Theater/Subwoofer. I think that is a superb idea"Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment.

I've got it; I have a GREAT idea. Not sure what you guys would do without me.
Let's combine the Subwoofer/Bass Management forum with a new HT forum. See? And there's more.......
We could call it the Home Theater/Subwoofer forum!!!!!!!!

Ok, ok, ok. Just hold it, guys. Let's not start strangling anybody here. I think both sides have some really valid points.
But I think this would work out just fine for both sides:
Why not just rename the Subwoofer/Bass Management forum and make it dedicated to both bass and HT? Should work just fine!

I think we should have a Computer/Technical forum. I mean really, without a working computer we'd have NO access to Club Polk. That's a pretty serious issue.

Years ago, 2 channel and Vintage had the most action here.
Now HT is (and I know this hurts some of you) but HT is taking over. More and more are turning thier 2 channel system into a 2/5.1 system. And funny enough, its the one subject (HT) we dont have dedicated. If I have a question about a AVR with a 5.1 speaker system or a HTIB, where do I put it????? Speakers??? Electronics??? 2 channel???

Leaving it as is, is getting less and less as an option. There will come a time where there are so many HT ?'s flooding the forums that flood the speaker and electronics section, it will be a cluster F%^&.Monitor 7b's front
