    Would I be stupid to buy a Denon 3805 NOW?

    Billy, my mailbox is clear. Please re-send. This 3805 is in the GTA. Did you get your's from Kennedy HiFi? Since you're in Markham, that's the closest dealer I think.

    Would I be stupid to buy a Denon 3805 NOW?

    I've always wanted one of these, and found one for a pretty good price, new in box. My question is, is it worth it since next year, all the DTSHD, and Dolby True HD receivers will be out. I assume I could still use the pre-inputs to receive HD audio as PCM, correct?

    HDMI vs Ilink & HDMI 1.3

    Woah, maybe I never paid much attention to it before, but will 1.3 have a different connector than 1.1? So what happens to my Pioneer Elite 74 with HDMI 1.1? If I buy a HDMI 1.3 tv, I can't connect my receiver to the tv using the HDMI cable I have now? I thought HDMI 1.3 was supposed to be...

    THX, DTS Home Theater Signs

    Thanks. If I could even find a THX poster, that would be nice as well since I can frame it myself. I remember a few years ago you could walk into Zellers or Walmart, check out the poster section and find the "THX - The audience is listening" poster. No luck nowadays.

    THX, DTS Home Theater Signs

    I'm not sure which forum this goes under, but I guess, it's a form of "room treatment" - abeit a cosmetic one rather than acoustic. I'm looking for framed posters or signs of DTS and especially THX signs to give my living room a bit of spice. Something like this: If I could find a...

    VSX-1016...a good stop-gap measure?

    Wait a sec, so if I plug my HDMI upconverting player into the 1016's HDMI input, and run a component cable out to my tv, I should hear 5.1 DTS through my speakers while seeing the picture on my tv?

    WOW! Yamaha 5960 slays my Pioneer 1015TX

    Tried that. No question the Yamaha sounds better. It could be my speakers, room setup, anything, but the 5960 sounds better to me not by a lot- but its noticable. I bought the 5960 mainly to return it if I didn't like it. Honestly, my expectations were that if the 1015 sounded better than the...

    WOW! Yamaha 5960 slays my Pioneer 1015TX

    Why would I even bring up the 7300? That's like comparing an RX7 to a Ferrari. The 5960 and the 1015 have very similar power output, price, features. I've been running them back and forth for a few days now. I can't decide which is louder since I haven't gone past -6. Both are fairly loud at...

    WOW! Yamaha 5960 slays my Pioneer 1015TX

    I'm a big fan of the 1015. It was my first receiver and I bought it after numerous recommendations. I'm running a full Polk setup. I love the sound of the Pioneer until - I tried the 5960 from Yamaha. Main reason I got it was because I really needed the extra optical for my Xbox 360 and Ipod...

    RANT: How does Recievers, amps get "beat up"?

    My family has owned an RCA VCR since in 1984. We've moved 5 times and even still when I visit my parents, the VCR is almost mint. It baffles me how receivers (slightly used and refurbs) I see on ebay look like they've been kicked around or beat up. How does this happen? I for one, never...
