    setting system up through HT receiver

    No I even pulled one out that had my bluray plugged into to see if it was just. Dead hdmi and still nothing. I wouldn't care about leaving the cable box set up through the xbox but the signal sucks then. Makes my hd channels look like standard def channels

    I bought both the xbox one and the ps4 and I can not get either to play through my receiver. I can get the xbox to play through the receiver if I hook it up through the cable box but then I lose the functionality of my remote. Did anyone have the same problem? now I just have them hooked up...

    Emotiva amp

    I went with a xpa-3 for my front three channels and the avr to power the surrounds. I can tell the difference when I go from the receiver to the amp in my fronts. It's not like its louder just sounds fuller

    Oppo bdp-103d

    Reviews I have read online is that the darbee processor helps bluray disks some but does a lot more to cable and satellite feed more. My question is if the oppo 103d has the darbee processor and has 2 hdmi spots can you run cable feed through the darbee processor of the oppo before sending the...

    choosing a svs sub

    I set the sub to -10db as the guy at svs told me is the correct audessey level and ran the audessey and went back and increased the crossover setting in my side channels to 80hz as they were set to 40hz. What volume db do most people set the sub to now that room correction is complete?

    choosing a svs sub

    My pb13 ultra arrived and now have some setup questions. Since I will run audessey again do I turn off all the sub settings since the room correction will set cross overs and such? Also, what is the volume db level I should set the sub to? The sub is so much larger in person then my tape measure...

    choosing a svs sub

    well I called and talked to SVS also and he talked me into the pb13 ultra over the sealed because of my room size being about 3500 cubic feet. He seemed to think they are very comparable in music but in movies the pb is much nicer than the sb. I took his advice and went with the ported and he...

    choosing a svs sub

    I am looking at buying either the pb13 ultra or the sb13 ultra. The price difference does not matter and it will be paired with paradigm studio 100s, cc-690, and arp-590 surrounds. I originally ordered a paradigm sub 15 but the finish I wanted was not available so I am looking at these two svs...

    Connecting amp

    I received my emotiva xpa-3 and I was reading the manual for connecting to my receiver pre amp outputs. It recommends to use the xlr connection for balanced instead of unbalanced. My question is locally I have only been able to find a single RCA to xlr instead of both red/white RCA to xlr. Is...

    first time theater set up questions

    no I have not purchased the amp or receiver yet. I read on here people saying the studio 100s need a lot of power to make them sound good so thats where the amp question came from. The sr5008 is 100 watts per channel. If more power is not needed I would stick with the receiver and save some money.
