    Concept 5.5 win? Or did I lose?

    Apparently these units have faulty power switches. I have to physically unplug the unit when I'm done listening to it because it is still running even after the switch is pressed.

    Humble system in progress

    went with the paradigm mini monitors. WOW is all i have to say. what a difference in sound compared to my old speakers. The amount of clarity is night and day. Honestly, I can't even imagine adding a subwoofer to this setup yet. The bass is actually very impressive for the small size of these...

    Humble system in progress

    I can understand how pointless an eq would be on my current setup. Like I said it sounds even better without it on and i was running it flattened out anyway. It def looks cool haha. So two channel audio..since my receiver is a vintage receiver would it be weird to run two bookshelves as my...

    I had a bad receiver before so it made things sound better but with the concept it's just so much better without it

    Humble system in progress

    I think it would be best to ask a guy from Canada this question. I have the opportunity to purchase either a pair of nearly mint mission 731i speakers or a pair of like new paradigm mini monitor v3's for 150 bucks . Which would be the best take home?

    So a little update, I got the concept up and running after Casper at stereo rehab in Chicago did some fine work restoring this thing. After playing various albums on my tt and flipping through the radio and cds I've come to the conclusion I either haven't hooked up my external eq to properly...

    Concept 5.5 win? Or did I lose?

    I'm not sure. I've been looking around inside and it looks like the board that the power relay is on is the worst looking part of the inside of this thing. But the relay itself seems clean. I have a picture of the power switch. It looks like their are two parts to it . I also cleaned all of the...

    This is good to know. Might be worth a trip to Chicago since cranky uncle Trotsky is out of commission in Milwaukee at the moment. When you say reasonable prices could you elaborate with numbers ? I'm a broke 29 year old cook.

    What to pair with concept 5.5

    i currently have a pair of pioneer cs g303 speakers that were handed down to me from my dads old rig. I just bought a concept 5.5 receiver to replace my pioneer sx 6 after the right channel stopped working on me. I'm looking to either replace the pioneers or add another set of speakers to pair...
