In Reply to: Anybody have experience with Golden Theater GTX-1 ? posted by Sean on November 21, 2000 at 22:10:10:
At its price point, US$1995, it was an exceptional product sonically.
It was quirky operationally, which is a polite way of saying the User Interface sucked.I had only two real issues with it:
1) If you left the GTX-1 on an input sending in DTS, and paused, or ended the material, in about 25-30 minutes the pre/pro would lock up so that only a hard power cycle would free it up.2) Even if a speaker was defined as large, Bass below the crossover frequency was routed to the subwoofer output, which could make some music a bit heavy for bass reproduction.
That's it. That's the sum total of its problems. I owned mine for about a year and a half, and just sold it to upgrade to a pre/pro with analog bypass.
You can read my review in the reviews section of the Asylum.
Hope this helped.

Isn't there another major issue? Like, Is the company still in business?Rob
He read the reviews at Audio Review -- which include several 0 star "reviews" slamming the manufacturer for going out of business.We have also exchanged e-mails on the topic and I have stated that Solo Electronics is out of business.
Perhaps its my fault for assuming the original poster was aware of this fact after reading Audio Review. I might be mistaken on that account.
