RE: Subwoofer: Eltax A8

Thanks for the info, guys.

Anyone else?

Subwoofer: Eltax A8

Can anyone share experience - good or bad - on this subwoofer?

I`ve seen it suggested that the A8 may "get hot and shut down". I`m relatively new to this - is that something subwoofers in general do or should it never happen????

Sherwood RD-6106 receiver

Can anyone offer an opinion on this?

Is it a worthy successor to Sherwood`s 6095 (which seems to be a thing of the past now, at least in terms of buying one new)?

(The 6106 is £200 from Richer Sounds.)

RE: Surround speakers: Eltax ... Movie Maxx ...or... Symphony?

Many thanks, guys.

Anyone got anything else to add before I take the plunge (Monday, probably)?

Surround speakers: Eltax ... Movie Maxx ...or... Symphony?

The current Richer Sounds "system superdeal" ad in "What Hi-Fi?" has made me think about buying more (!) kit.

Can anybody offer an opinion on one or other (or both) of two of the surround speaker packages in the deal?

The basic ingredient is the Eltax Movie Maxx package.

For an extra £70, an alternative is the Eltax Symphony 6 (fronts) + Symphmony 4 (rears) + Symphony Centre. I am presuming that these are not from the updated Symphony ".2" range (as in Symphony 6.2, etc), but I could be wrong.

I have a pair of this company`s Linear Response 6.5 floorstanders (and have been very pleased with them) but I don`t know a thing about these packages. Their website (www.eltax.dk) does not give much away, and I cannot find any reviews.

This is already very long-winded (apologies!)...but can anyone say for sure if the fronts and centres in these packages are magnetically shielded - and if so is this done adequately?

...and can anyone recommend a subwoofer that would go well with these? (The amp in the set-up is likely to be the Sherwood 6095.)

Thanks - not least for reading this far!
