I do not have an ethernet input nearby the HT set up so I ran a really long ethernet cable from my router to the AVR upon initial installation to get the latest firmware loaded on the unit. That was approximately 3-4 weeks ago.

I'm experiencing a very similar situation with my SR5008. My problem is with my DirecTV. When I power everything up 50% of the time video works fine, but I have no audio. I have to turn off the AVR and turn it back on for it to work. I also have issues where well after start-up, my TV will go...

I recently bought a Marantz SR5008 AVR. I just purchased a Martin Logan Motion 30 center, pair of Motion 20 fronts, and a pair of motion 4's to be used as surrounds. They are rated at 4 ohms. Will my Marantz work well for these low ohm speakers? On another note, I received the Motion 30...

I am thoroughly impressed with the sound quality of this reciever! It blows away my old pioneer unit. The sound from my old Bose 4001 fronts and VCS-10 center is MUCH improved. I'm still replacing the speakers, but it shows the great sound quality of the receiver. I can keep the volume much...

I received the receiver in very good condition. This was a remanufactured item and there were no physical dings, dents, scratches, or physical blemishes of any kind. I just hooked everything up excluding the bluray player (I need another HDMI cable to do so). I ran the set up function and...

Ugh. Accessories 4 Less shipped FedEx Ground. FedEx is the K-Mart of shipping. The item was supposed to deliver today, but when the tracking updates halted I called FedEx to discover that the item is actually delivering tomorrow. Gotta love that fantastic FedEx tracking software. UPS, UPS, UPS!

Magnolia, Amazon, and most online retailers are selling Martin Logan at list price. My only option is to head to my local mom & pop dealer and see if they could offer a discount on a package deal. Does anyone know of a reputable place to purchase brand new Martin Logan speakers online that...

An hour after placing my order I received an email that it shipped. That's impressive!

Well Gabriel I through caution to the wind based on your reply and went with the dozen or so people who said that Accessories 4 Less was a great vendor and had no issues with the equipment they purchased. I decided on the Marantz 5008 as it was my first choice when I began researching and A4L...

I just bought my Marantz 5008 7.2 receiver from Accessories 4 Less. Got a great deal on a Marantz factory refurbished unit and saved 39% off list price. I'm extremely happy about the savings and will comment on ship times and overall satisfaction purchasing form A4L. I'll also put some...

I'm a bit confused. I would not consider A4L a reputable vendor if the products they sell don't work as well as the one's purchased "directly from manufacturers". Can you explain?

Has anyone had any issues with ship times? Are they quick to ship?

Great advice Kruz. In my experience over the years, I really like the sound of a sealed 12" subwoofer. I have never heard one with television or movies, only music. They are awesome for music as I prefer rock. Big ported subs or bandpass subs get wayyy too muddy with rock music. I find that...

Thanks Rojo!

I've found some great deals on refurbished receivers from accessories4less. They are also authorized dealers for both brands I am considering and carry a 1 year manufacturers warranty. Has anyone had any experience purchasing refurbished items from them? If so, please explain.

I've found the Marantz 5008 and Yamaha RX-A1020 Aventage for the same price (and a good one at that). Which would you choose?

The reason I am limited to these is that they are on a short list of speakers I am able to audition based on distributors in my area. I did consider Monitor, but their are no distributors in my area for a demo. PSB and Ascend do not offer a risk free trial that covers return shipping expenses...

I am in the market for a completely new speaker system system. I plan to run a 5.1 for now and eventually upgrade it to a 7.1 with with one of the following set ups. Paradigm with Mini Monitor fronts, Center 3, and Atom Monitor surrounds or a Martin Logan set up with Motion 15 fronts, Motion 30...

Why would you have opt for the Denon based on what you know now?
