My passion has always been
audio. For years, I designed and sold pro audio systems. Home theater has
had me enthralled since 5.1 and I have participated as a beta tester for a
number of products including the Harmony Remote Controls, now owned by
Logitech that are uniquely "activity centric".
On these pages I will assemble a number of
useful links to sites I trust for honest reviews, informed advice and
quality products for home audio, home theater, sound reinforcement and home
and pro recording applications. It will be a "work in progress" as I
corner spare time to add to the pages, so check back often for new links and
do report broken links so I can keep the information fresh.

Home Theater Forums
AVS Forums
Looking to chat with or question highly
technical experts in the home theater field? Want to know how to choose
between plasma and LCD? I know of no more informed group than those that
hang out at the AVS Forums. May take a bit of searching and quite a
bit of reading to get up to speed, but well worth the effort.

Asylum If they aren't
talking about it here, it may not exist. This is a collection of chats on
everything audio-video you might imagine. Plus resources, link lists and
classifieds.
Home Theater
Manufacturers
Sometimes avoiding the middleman is a
wonderful thing. Several GREAT manufacturers sell direct over the internet
including:
Outlaw Audio
Primarily amps, multi-channel amps and
processors, Outlaw has also added speakers and subs with very high quality
and very low prices. Their processors outperform units at twice the price -
maybe more. They also have the Outlaw Hideout, a user forum where there is a
wealth of good information user to user.
SVS Audio
Formerly SVS subwoofers, these guys
make amazing performance subs at prices far below the normal brands and
normal distribution channels. As they grow, they have added mains and
surrounds as well. Set aside some time and visit their site, read the
reviews and compare pricing and performance with almost anyone else.
Generally Great Sources of
Information
