    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!!;)

    Hd-sdi?

    Anyone knows what is the SDI port or kit? I noticed the DVDO Ultrascan HD+ offering this option, and I have no clue what it means.

    Better DSP-Denon or Yamaha?

    I searched the forums but couldn't find a related thread. I have never owned a denon receiver but am now taking a hard look at the AVR 4806 vs the RXV4600. I use receivers strictly as preamps, though I might consider powering a 2nd zone with their internal amps. My current receiver the rxv750...

    "Save Thread" Function

    Would it be possible to have subscribers save threads to a folder so they can quickly link to their discussions of interest. This is different from email notification via thread subscription. It would make navigating aroung the site more efficient for me. Something like "My Audioholics" with...

    Is Dedicated Center Channel Really Necessary?

    How crucial really is having a dedicated center channel? In my current setup, the overall sound appears better when I play center channel information through my large, full range mains, especially with multichannel music. I know the center channel is supposed to fix the dialogue to the screen...

    Digital Video Output X 2

    Anyone aware of anything else out there besides the insanely priced AVR 5805 which will output more than 1 digital video signal? I would like to use a prepro for switching between a front and rear projector setup, without having to resort to an external switching device to keep both signals in...

    Does The Theater Enhance The Market Value of The HOME?

    Just thought I'd investigate before taking the plunge. Do you think you can recover the cost of a well built home theater when you sell the house (sans your fav gear, of course). Anyone ever been in this position before? It would seem to me that a well designed HT should make your property more...

    Running HT Through 2CH Analog

    Just by reading the posts I realize that quite a few people have hi-end stereo analog systems, as well as digital HT and Multi-CH playback systems. I was wondering if you run your HT main preouts through your analog preamps, thus combining both stereo/analog with multi-Ch digital playback...

    Optical Media Wrapping

    I've had it already with the ridiculous packaging of DVDs and CDs. Seriously, is shoplifting so rampant that we all have to be treated like criminals. I can't count the about of jewel cases and DVD packaging that I've damaged just trying trying to open them in my car before getting home to my...

    Speakers: Form vs Function

    This is an offshoot of a question I recently posed to RLA. I was wondering how much of a role does aesthetics play in selecting speakers. I have never purchased a black speaker, and probably never will. All my subs, even sorrounds, are all wood veneer, and I choose main full range front channel...

    DVI Switcher

    Hi Is anyone aware of an external HD video scaler that has more than one DVI input? Since most (if not all) displays have only one such input, then those with more than 1 DVI source have to choose which one to send digitally and which to send vial analog (component) video outs to the display.

    Bass Null

    Hi I am experimenting with different 2 ch setups. Currently I have Axiom M80s driven by Levinson 336, BAT preamp, various sources, and a Vandersteen 2wq subwoofer in a 22 x 16 x 8(H) room. I have the axioms about 9 feet apart along one of the short sides of the room, and 3 feet from the...

    Biwired or Bi-amped

    <font color='#000000'>Can someone help me out here. If you hook up speakers A and B binding posts of a receiver to the same speaker on the right and the same setup on the left, and engage both speaker A and B swithes simultaneously, are you bi-amping, or biwiring your speakers. I'm not sure of...

    Receivers for analog

    <font color='#000000'>We can all agree that receivers continue to make significant advances in sound quality. I have noticed however that reviews rarely or never mention the quality of the phono stage, when present on a receiver. Will those of us who enjoy vinyl always have to depend on a...

    Home Theater Dimensions

    <font color='#000000'>For some time now I've been mulling over this concept. Why is it, apart from aesthetics, would you want your home theater to be a rectangle where the length (L) is 1.5-2x the width(W)? I have seen numerous photos on the internet of people adding on a room to their existing...
