The long wait is finally over...

Guru Joey,

What speaker wires do you use with your Mezzo 2/550A combo?

Thanks!

Thank you masters! You're welcome to visit my humble abode. Pagpasensyahan nyo na nga lang po.

Mga chief any thoughts sa MS302? Never had an experience as mga MS speakers.. Are they ok? FYI guys gamitin ko sya as table top paird with a T-amp also be used pag may outdoor BBQs pocket set-up ba somthing like that..

Im having this thought instead of purchasing a ipod speaker which will sound crappy compared sa T-amp and MS302.. Thanks..

Maganda ang MS302 when partnered well, but it is meant to go with a small sub that will take care of the lows. Sealed na small bookshelves po kasi yan na meant for HT use. It will also work for a low power stereo setup, as long as you have the proper sub to augment it. The MS308W or the MS309W would be a great partner to those small bookshelves / satellites.

I understand sub is needed in order for it to sound full.. I just need somthing that it would fit in my bag..

will it serve me that way? I have a good deal with a used MS302 an given i have a T amp already.. Opinions on this? Alternatives? Thanks bros..

went to 5th ave kanina looking for other brands of speakers. unfortunately wala dun. pero nakita ko yung mezzo2 ang ganda ng standmounters na to, nacurious tuloy ako. pang 2channel stereo listening lang ba talaga ito, purely for music only? how about for ht pwede ba ito pang dual purpose ht/music 50-50?

Stagea · « **Reply #1424 on:** Jun 11, 2011 at 04:14 AM »

Mezzos are wonderful speakers for both music and HT.

mga master, pwede ba humingi ng opinyon para sa avant 904i? musta yung bass production nya? balak ko sana gamitin 50/50 music and HT. wala akong sub so i rely mostly on the floorstander for bass production. any info would be greatly appreciated.

Di po ako master, pero here's my take: For music use, pwedeng adequate na yung lows nya. However, for movies mabibitin ka malamang.

A dedicated sub will help greatly (you're missing out on LFE kung wala).

maraming salamat sa input sir. as long as the bass is decent enough ok na ko. di naman ako naghahanap ng mga gapang bass pero kung adequate na yung lows with sound clarity still intact of course, ok na ko. i play mostly rock music so hinahanap ko yung makapal tumunog.

anyone else experienced these floorstanders? pa-share naman ng impressions to help me decide. TIA!

WHAT'S THE IDEAL PARTNERING EQUIPMENT (AMP AND CDP) FOR MS AVIANO 6?

I don't think there's a need to type in all caps. How much are you willing to spend?

Try the current Yamaha audio components like the CD-S700 and the A-S700, if you want to soften the Aviano's edge a bit. The CA 650C / 650A would also work with it, if you want an exciting (if a bit forward)
sound.

If you have a larger budget, higher end electronics would typically have loftier limits and fewer compromises.

I think I posted here 6 years ago, I have my Carnival 6 floorstanders. They have served me very well all this time. They're hooked up to my almost 20 year old Onkyo avr. Just want to ask who or what store sells MS Carnival center speakers and sub? Can I use the current series with my old ones? I'll be retiring my good old analog Onkyo and going digital soon, so I can expand my speakers already. No need for surrounds as I have a weird room config to fully appreciate this.

Thanks for any info you can give me.

If you have the same series as the current models, then they should integrate just fine. Try contacting your nearest 5th Avenue branch. If they don't have it in stock, they could likely get these items for you.

Thanks! My flat screen just got delivered today, an LG 42KL450. Speakers are passable, but sadly nothing to write home about. I wish i could splurge and buy my avr na, but can't. Haven't figured out how I can connect my Onkyo to it yet so I can use my Carnivals na I've been so used to all this time. I also asked the tech guy who installed my tv, he even looked at it's back to see if it had an optical cable, ayaw maniwala sa akin, sabi ko wala.

I PMed you Ronnie's number (5th Ave. Trinoma). Text him for a quote on the Carnivals that you have in mind. Perhaps he can bundle an entry level Yamaha AVR for your setup.

Do mention if you're paying in cash, as he might be able to apply discounts. Tell him that Ivan referred you.

Yesterday I bought 14 gauge speaker wires from an audio/video shop that cost 90 bucks per meter (for use with my Mezzo 2). I thought it would be an upgrade to the 16 gauge wire that I bought from Watt Hi-Fi in MCS for only 40 bucks per meter (if I remember correctly). What a letdown, the 16 gauge wire blew away the 14 gauge wire! The thinner wire had more detail, better midrange and even better bass!

It really happens bro. What works is what works. Different sytems, rooms and combinations have different needs. What sound are you trying to get out of your system, by the way?

Nothing specific naman, I just thought that getting thicker wires (these are used from my TP60 amp to the Mezzo 2's for TV listening), would bring about a mild improvement. Anyone need 14 gauge speaker wires, 6 meters in length?
