    Actually, I think what happens is when I pushed movie listening mode, I believe it resets certain settings, including the center channel volume. I could be wrong. When I put it back at 6 db, it sounded much better. I just didn't realize it went back to an earlier setting. Another question is...

    Phase Error I am doing the Audyssey Calibration and I got a speaker phase error for my two fronts and center speakers. Funny thing is my wires are not crossed. They match up. Anybody ever encounter this? Could this be an error on Audysseys part or the speaker manufacturer?

    lol, I figured. It made more sense. I guess I should have left out the LFE out. I was really asking about the other three. The manual wasn't very clear. It said to use the L or R for most receivers. Then it goes on to say that the LFE In is for connecting to the subout or LFE output of a...

    Sorry to go in circles. I just want whatever I buy to be it for a while. So, I'm just making sure. I'm not drawn to Yamaha, really, I just seem to hear about Yamaha a lot. I'm just scared to make a bad choice, which is why I'm here. To gather as much info as possible. Plus, I read things like...

    @Grador, so being the 473 power specs are misleading, would you now say the Denon 1613 would be a better choice over the Yamaha 473? @zieglj01 What about the Denon 1613 (not the 1612) in your opinion versus the Yamaha 473? Does the 1613 still apply to what you said about beating the Yamaha...

    Thanks for the info. I don't really use Pandora, so I guess that difference doesn't matter to me. Thanks for your time. I was just worried that Yamaha's weren't as good as Denon, quality wise.

    Somebody suggested to me the Yamaha 473. He says it compares to the Denon 1613 feature wise. What do you guys think of Yamaha vs Denon? He suggested the Yamaha for ease of use software. But how do they compare technically

    Nope, no sexual favors. That was last month.lol. So, with the 1613, I should be good to go with power,right? In other words, the receiver will be powerfull enought to play an action movie (at a reasonable movie volume)without blowing something? Or do you need to know the specs of my...

    oh and another question about receivers. What does RMS rating affect? I see some receivers with 75 RMS continuous and some with 100 RMS continuous. What difference does that make and should I be concerned? My sub's manual says Recommended power is and I quote from the manual "250 Watts...

    Zieg, what's your suggestions for a receiver given the speakers and sub I have? The more suggestions I get, the better decision I can make.

    From what I can tell, the difference between the 1912 and 1613 is the number of channels, watts per channel, video upconversion, and HDMI inputs. The 1613 does not have the upconversion,but I'm not sure I need it. My fiancee wouldn't let me get 7.1, but I'm comfortable staying at 5.1. So...

    My fiancee will already kill me for buying another receiver after getting that sub, so I may not have a choice. They sound great to me, but then again, I'm comparing them to my previous ones. I may not know what exceptional speakers sound like.lol. I'm guessing when I get my sub in there, they...
