    Yamaha Hdmi 1.3 Receivers

    Isn't this supposed to be the bleeding edge for yamaha info? Is anyone on this site beta testing the RX-V 1800/2800/3800/4800/Z11? Information is starting to trickle in on other forums and european and japanese websites. C'mon, throw the hungry masses a bone, a photo, pre-release specs, anything!!;)

    Don't connect AMP to UPS or Power Conditioner --->>> ??

    I have the same Grande 5 amp driving my center and sorround speakers, and a Levinson No 336 driving the fronts. Both amps are plugged into separate dedicated 20 amp circuits. Both are extremely powerful and heavy-Grande approx 125lbs, ML 150lbs. Both amps are rated 300w RMS into 8 ohms, and...

    Enter to Win: HDMI Fiber Optic Cable from DVIGear!

    Ability to have long cable runs without loss of image quality is the most impressive feature. I have to do a long pull-through to my ceiling projector. When you have significant $$ invested in a HT, the last thing you should have to worry about is signal degradation from your cable runs.

    Usher Audio S-520 Bookshelf Speaker Review

    Usher always appears to get glowing reviews from their demos at trade shows, including their fit and finish. Their speakers however appear to be geared towards stereo. Yes they do make center channels speakers to match the v and x series, but nothing to match the dancer series. For folks who...

    Yamaha Announces the RX-V2700 and RX-V1700 !

    1080i or 1080p? Does the 2700 upconvert to 1080i or 1080p? The heading mentions 1080p but the report says 1080i.

    Want to improve your bass…Try this.

    This is true. The best location for the subs in this setup is the corner behind each tower. This all but eliminates TA issues. My yamaha receiver does not cut LFE to front when sub is set to NONE, so this doesn't affect me. And I find it actually easier to adjust front mounted level controls on...

    Best Sound DVDS the Showdown!

    Jurasic Park DTS The first head shot of T Rex chomping on the goat, with it's terrifying growling, or when it is sniffing around the ford explorer, and that close up of his foot from behind after he has chowed down on lawyer boy, accompanied by the most incredible "clooomph", still raises my...

    earthquake cinenova amps

    I own a Cinenova Grande 5. I use it to drive the center and 4 sorround channels. I used it to bi-amp axiom M80s for about 6 months. These amplifiers deliver their posted specs. They have been bench tested by respected audio industry experts, (Richard Hardesty and "Secrets" come immediately to...

    Audioholics Processor-Receiver Features Checklist

    If you are including BNC connectors, you might as well include XLR as well, since as many, if not more people, are interested in "balanced" connectors.

    MP3's are taking over the world!!!

    No matter what any study says, on my system, in my house, to my ears, MP3 are crap. To put it more accurately, my mp3s sound like crap. Meaning with my 3 yr old computer patched to the BAT preamp. It is quite possible that my sound card is inferior. I have not burned them on a disc and played...

    Yamaha RX-Z9 -or- Anthem Statement D1

    The D1 wait continues Seems like they are fine tuning the onboard (real) scaler that will scale all video to HDMI 720P, as well as waiting for final HDMI sign off. Looks like firewire is a non starter.

    Yamaha RX-V4600 Receiver Review Thread

    Actually, I was referring to the deal recently signed by sirius to transmit the hometown Audio play by play of each NFL game, which is great, since not only can you get out of market games on Directv's NFL package, you can also receive the audio commentary for your favorite team as well. I'm not...
