    Best mid range receiver for 4 ohm towers?

    One caution, they're often input oriented as well, so check setting with each input if that's how your avr's logic works.

    Best mid range receiver for 4 ohm towers?

    Yeah my max volume is more to just prevent accidents....same for start-up volume as otherwise it tends to use last used.

    Bridge Collapse in Baltimore

    Tugs were used for the usual navigation of this harbor. Didn't particularly allow for the other problems with power that developed. Maybe it could, just wasn't considered necessary. Things like wind in this case were a factor from what I've seen, and the side of a ship like this is somewhat a...

    My Denon 720 will not play sound on my USB button. It did yesterday but not today. It will play sound thru the TV Audio s

    Sometimes they're just acting like buggy computers. Still curious about your connections, tho ;)

    How is the tv connected, what type of cable? What is the usb source that played and now doesn't?

    My Denon 720 will not play sound on my USB button. It did yesterday but not today. It will play sound thru the TV Audio s

    Need more information. What is the particular source and format connected via usb ? TV is connected how? One thing you might try without knowing more if nothing has changed since yesterday's functioning is to perhaps do a soft reset of the avr (unplug it from power for a little bit).

    Best mid range receiver for 4 ohm towers?

    Many avrs have both a turn-on volume level as well as an upper limit (I use both features even just for myself), some have passwords to prevent someone else changing settings, too. You really don't want to use the protection mechanism to kick in as some sort of limiter. A good universal remote...

    YAMAHA RX-V596 SPEAKER TROUBLE

    I saw more about an aux input and a headphone (output) and not the analog l/r rca (output) connections and nothing about any needed phono stage or other in my initial search, so searched some more. Looked at the AT cartridge details a bit more, at first thought it was a typical moving magnet...

    Chicago Area... Help with finding store to demo

    I just use manufacturer's information, particularly via specifications and the product manual.....much better than salesman derived info. I would definitely discount the "information" they come up with if it isn't from those sources anyways. Third party testing is always a nice thing to find...

    YAMAHA RX-V596 SPEAKER TROUBLE

    Yes, that doesn't look all that attractive but don't find much detail. The cartridge may be an AudioTechnica 3600L from the Techplay "parts" page. Seems it may have an internal phono stage, and if so wouldn't use the phono input on the receiver but rather another input but not sure what it...

    YAMAHA RX-V596 SPEAKER TROUBLE

    Yes, an optical of appropriate length would give you the best audio from tv sources for your gear (can handle multi-channel audio whereas your analog red/white are limited to 2 ch stereo). What record player is it? There are some variables there.

    Salesmen, with particular interests, no thanks. I just do my own homework.

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Depends what you think those numbers represent. Different source levels seem to be at play too. Your volume levels don't sound particularly unusual on that volume scale, but volume scales aren't always comparable too.

    Online audio advising sites? Links? While I've not lived close to most of the audio shows, didn't really have much desire to attend one but does sound like a great option for you. Disregard the jewelry amps and wires would be my suggestion, concentrate on the speakers.

    YAMAHA RX-V596 SPEAKER TROUBLE

    You can't somehow just use your ham radio antenna? They describe your antenna options on pages 11/12 of your manual (do you need a copy?).

    YAMAHA RX-V596 SPEAKER TROUBLE

    Congrats on getting it working. Looks like the main speakers on your unit have binding posts, you comfortable with those now? Usually better than the spring-clip type it looks like you have for the center/surrounds. What's your budget for speakers? Maybe start here...
