I tried to visit the Onkyo recall site you provided but it rejected my model/serial number for that program. Ended up buying the Yamaha. Seemed like too good of a deal to pass up and I've always been very open to the value you get with factory refurbished ht equipment. Will try to come back and...

Hey, thanks so much again afterlife! You've equipped me with some great options here :) That Yamaha has some nice sounding features!

Interesting...thanks! I will definitely check that out. Unfortunately, it is suffering from the flashing standby light and doesn't turn on at all. Not sure if they'll consider that audio related.

Really? Even out of warranty?

Hi all, hope everyone had a great thanksgiving! Recently, my parents sr507 crapped out and I'm starting to look for a replacement. I would like to get something around $400 with decent 5.1 performance, can handle hdmi and PCM pass through, and has powered zone 2 for outside speakers. Would also...

Thanks again! So my concern now is, in the event that the Onkyo does not provide any improvement, the digital source option will not address the mobile devices which are restricted to 3.5 to rca. What would you recommend in this case?

Appreciate the input! So are you saying I will not see any gains from simply running the 3.5 to rca from my PC to Onkyo as a preamp? The PC does have an optical out which I use for the HT setup. The reason being, I can trick windows into using the 3.5 out for music and then switch playback to...

PC source is integrated motherboard sound 3.5mm to rca directly from PC to amp. Mobile devices are also from headphone jack (3.5mm) to rca on amp. Does this support multiple zone outs? I would like to be able to assign sources to different zones on the fly if possible... I am going to try...

If that's the case then I will just use my Onkyo TX SR805. Should do the job I suppose...

Do I really need another amp here? Can I not just put a preamp between source and existing amps?

I am looking into adding a preamp to my home stereo setup. I have two main music sources, a PC and mobile devices (phones, ipods, etc.). I am starting to get the feeling that I am not getting the type of output I should be with having these sources connected directly to the amps (Crown XLS 1500...

Hi everyone, looking for a speaker recommendation capable of filling a large outdoor pool area. There are no walls besides the back side of the house where the speakers will be mounted. These things will need to be capable for pushing some serious air. Open budget...

I was going to recommend this sub to a friend since last I knew it was a great sub for the money. Is there anything currently available to it in terms of price/performance?

OMG! I'm assuming they are gone now?

Yeh, I've checked out the Control 30 as well. Its a beast but I can't justify spending that kind of money for this application.

Nobody has used/installed these here?

Anybody have experience with these? Amazon.com: JBL Control 29AV1 Indoor Outdoor Speaker (8 inch, 300 watts, Black): Musical Instruments Thinking about buying a pair to connect to my Emotiva UPA-2. What do you all think? Will I be happy poolside this Summer?

Wow, thanks Gene! I did read your review of them here but was still left wondering how they would sound with a better amp. I think I now have my answer. My next question is, what do you think about a pair of these: http://www.amazon.com/JBL-Control-Indoor-Outdoor-Speaker/dp/B000YB48QC...

Thanks Bear. Anybody else care to chime in? Anybody with personal experience with the Axiom's?
