B&W released their new line of DB Subs and they sure have packed a lot of new technology into a small and elegant package. Of course, such a task is not an inexpensive one with the DB1D, DB2D, and DB3D priced at $4,500, $3,500, and $2,500 respectively. Each model features dual opposing drivers...

Guys; It is interesting to note that the Denon AVR-X3300W is capable of doing full bandwidth power sweeps without either shutting down or going into purposeful clipping. This is what happens when you try to cram so much tech into a small budgeted product. Both Denon and Yamaha units have a...

I have a Yamaha Clavinova CLP-340 and feel it is one of the finest sounding digital pianos regardless of price.

I just finished the exact same tests on the Denon AVR-X3300W. The Denon has a clean 4Vrms output on the preamp and does over 79 watts x 5 ACD. For roughly the same price, the Denon offers much better performance!

Ordinarily I'd agree but the protection circuitry is too sensitive even with 1-2 channels driven as you can see in my graphs. Either their engineering department got too conservative or the heatsink and power supply has been far too compromised for this product. I tend to believe the latter...

The AP terminates into a high impedance (50k if I remember correctly).

Yamaha has and still does make some excellent home theater products and AV receivers. This receiver has some performance issues but their top of the line model likely does NOT.

There's a lot to like about the Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A860 7.2CH Atmos/DTS:X AV receiver. It's packed with excellent, easy to use networking features, especially MusicCAST which allows you to manage all of your music via mobile or from your PC. It supports the latest in immersive audio formats...

How about giving them the benefit of a doubt. They recalled ALL of the old units for customers that weren't satisfied after I reported on the design issues and they hired an engineer to fix them. The new versions tested pretty well by us and I think it's cool they are giving away a pair on our...
