    MartinLogan 4th Gen Motion XT Series BIG Performance Enhancements!

    This was confusing upon first glance but the reasons will become clear in my interview with the ML Engineers. The towers have more ability but were deliberately padded down for more smoothness. Stay tuned...

    Anthem MRX1140

    I wouldn't use 4ohm speakers on the 1140 height amps. Definitely get some external amplification from Monoprice or Anthem if you can swing it.

    MartinLogan 4th Gen Motion XT Series BIG Performance Enhancements!

    Here are my listening impressions of the F100. Matthew Poes is getting in the F200s to measure and review and I may request more units as well.

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    Complete waste of this receiver to not use at least 9 of the 15 internal amplifiers.

    MartinLogan 4th Gen Motion XT Series BIG Performance Enhancements!

    Now in their 4th generation, the Motion Series and Motion XT Series use newly-design waveguides to improve the performance of MartinLogan’s ‘Folded Motion’ AMT tweeters. All nine new speaker models boast at least 92 dB sensitivity, promising great things for home theater dynamics. The Motion...

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    The bigger centralized power supply will allow for better power in 2CH driven and especially dynamic power. I suspect this receiver will be the most powerful Denon has made since the AVR-5805.

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    By similar you mean no Dolby Atmos, DTSX, Auro 3D, 2 sub outs, no Dirac, no PC Audyssey, no Heos, no 8K support and only 9ch of amplification and a smaller power supply?

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    Your post makes no sense. 105wpc w 9CH driven from an AVR from a 15A outlet is pretty incredible. This amp can easily do 175wpc w 2ch driven into 8 ohm and almost 300wpc into 4 ohm, 2ch driven. The large power supply ensures large dynamic reserves for transients. I consider that a victory. Plus...

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    I just confirmed with Denon engineering that the AVR-A1H will do 70% (105wpc) with 9CH driven, 8 ohms clean. Factoring efficiency, that's about 1,400 watts power consumption True beast!

    Anthem STR Stereo Integrated Amplifier Preview

    Absolutely waste of resources and time for us to review the integrated when I did a full test of the separates. Basically very similar product but will slightly less power.

    Denon AVC-A1H, special request for Gene to review and bench test this new beast!

    Marantz is sending me the AV10 and AMP10 next week so I will be bench testing those. I may request an A1H sent to Matthew Poes which he can bench test for us and also test out the bass routing stuff they offer. Anthem wants us to bench test the AVM90. So many products, so little time. I wish I...

    Trinnov Strikes Back at DIRAC w Active Acoustics - But will it be as good as ART?

    Just weeks after Dirac officially announced Dirac Live Active Room Treatment, Trinnov has responded with its own announcement: a groundbreaking “active acoustics” technology that promises similar results. Trinnov’s new tech uses two large arrays of subwoofers to “effectively eliminate room...

    Sony 2023 ES Receiver lineup

    Sony has contacted me directly and wants us to bench test their flagship. Matthew Poes will be heading this up for us and we will be doing videos together about the new Sony AVRs. They seem to have potential though I'm a little disappointed the dual sub outs are just a parallel connection. I do...

    Andrew Jones MoFi Concentric Speaker breaks 90dB Sensitivity Barrier!

    Re-read the title. I said Andrew Jones concentric speakers. I don't believe he designed the high-efficient Tannoy designs?
