Any Celestion 8 ohm speaker will work. Make sure the speaker size and wattage are comparable as well.

Any guess as to whether an amp like the Denon 2807 would pass THX certification? It sounds pretty good, but it's also very light. Most THX receivers I've seen are over 35lbs. The 2807 is around 27lbs I think.

I don't get it either. THX sells. If THX charges so much for the brand, then how can Pioneer put it on the 1016 and charge so little?

hey man, those are some cool looking banana plugs. What are they?

I saw Silent Hill on Blu Ray yesterday. I don't think there's any doubt that this is the best sounding track for horror flicks.

I have a small HT room. It's 9x10 feet. It's a projector setup with a 9 feet throw distance. My couch is about 8 1/2 feet from the screen. Now, I have a 5.1 setup, but I was wondering whether I would benefit from a 7.1 setup? I know Blu Ray has announced some 7.1 mixes, and I will get a...

You need a bigger tv friend.

Umm, you're comparing apples and oranges. How old is the 992, 5 years, 6? Yamahas have gotten better over the years. I actually liked the drop door of the 1015, but sound is sound. My 5960 is better than the 1015 in every way, there's just no comparison. I don't consider the new Yamahas...

GLS Audio Gen II Plugs Found these at an Ebay store. 28 (for 7 speakers > receiver) for $70. Has anyone tried these? Cheaper alternative?

In terms of features, I'd love HDMI on the Yamaha, although the Denon might be a better receiver. I've heard the Yamaha and I know I would be happy with it. Never heard the 3805, but I have heard the 3806 and loved it. They are both $799can at a shop, and I have store credit with them so I...

I don't know about the 1016, but I used to have a 1015. It was no contest. The 5960 did everything better.

I so want to get the Oppo 970, but all my stuff is black, and that thing is going to stick out like a sore thumb.

HDDVD came out really strong, with great looking and sounding titles. Blu Ray has the most studio support and is going to get stronger. New Blu Ray titles are looking great and will continue to improve. The PS3 juggernaut will entice studios to release more titles. If you can afford to...

if you can't test or unsure of what might match your fronts, the best bet is to go for the Athena B2.2s.

I'm just going by what I read from the audioholics review. I'm no techie. I'm just trying to make sense with some "real world" numbers. What does all this mean? The review wasn't very clear. I've seen Yamaha rate it at 100w/7channel, 115w/7 channel, and then saw Best Buy's description...

Maybe I didn't read the tests right, but is the amp section of the 659 comparable to amps rated at 140w/channel specs at 8ohms?

For BluRay, yes (Dolby HD), for games, they will use DD+ which is still amazing!

Umm, what? :confused:

This is the greatest review I've ever read!!
