<font color='#000000'>Yamahaluver; I will personally vouche on your comments regarding SRS, Nasa research on human hearing, etc.  I am currently doing such research at my day job and the level of detail and involvement on this topic is stunning.   I have little direct experience with Carver...

<font color='#000000'>Rob; Very good points. &nbsp;Objectivity is key. &nbsp;However, prior to Sunfire sending us the TGIII, they confirmed that their Ultimate receiver is virtually an identical processor with a built in amp section. &nbsp;That being said, we haven't personally listened to the...

<font color='#000000'>Nick; While I haven't directly compared the other two receivers you mentioned, I was absolutely blown away by the dynamics of the Yamaha RXV-1400 when mated with 7 Yamaha speakers in a huge room (about 3000 ft^3) at a private showing they invited me to. &nbsp;For your...

<font color='#000000'>jgels; You may want to check out Niles. &nbsp;They specialize in speaker switchers and probably have something that suits your needs.</font>

<font color='#000000'>3dB; I will try to put together a little article that explains the weighting schemes of SPL measurements shortly. In the meantime, you may wish to reference these links: A-Weighting Weighting definitions Physics of Sound</font>

<font color='#000000'>Jaycan; It is funny that you mention the Anthem. &nbsp;We have requested a review sample of their latest. &nbsp;It looks like a HUGE improvement over their original AVM2 which we were not impressed with. &nbsp;In fact, the AVR20 looking like one of the most flexible HT...

<font color='#000000'>Tee; That review reads more like marketing literature than a critical review.  What the review doesn't tell you is the lacking features of this product that no receiver in this price range suffers from such as: 1) limited to 1dB channel trim adjustments 2) no subwoofer...

<font color='#000000'>Wine4et; Looking over the specs of the DVD-2200, it does share many of the virtues of the DVD-2900. &nbsp;If top notch DVD-A/SACD playback is not your primary concern, then by all means go for the cheaper DVD-2200. &nbsp;However, the audio performance of the DVD-2900 is...

<font color='#000000'>Hi Rob; Your pushing your luck &nbsp; Don't forget I do have a day job &nbsp; Seriously though the DVD-2200 looks like a great deal. &nbsp;My understanding is its a scaled down version of the 2900 particularly in the audio section. &nbsp; Our plan going forward is to do...

<font color='#000000'>Warant; Sounds like you are assembling quite a nice system. &nbsp;Realize two primary reasons why the Polk LSI's sell for much more than the Axioms: 1) Cosmetics 2) Different marketing model (Axiom sells direct, thus cuts out the middle man and potentially 20-30% margin)...

<font color='#000000'>Attention Audioholics forum members; The original posts in this thread &nbsp;now titled &quot;Guest&quot; were posted by Bruce. &nbsp;By his request, and because of his blatant flaming and personal attacks he has committed against other forum members and our staff, I have...

<font color='#000000'>Rob; You raise very valid points. People don't always buy products based solely on performance. &nbsp;There is something to be said about product appeal, brand name recognition, appearances, etc.</font>

<font color='#000000'>All; Unless otherwise specified, when an amplifier company lists SNR it is a full power rating.  This is somewhat misleading since the listener rarely achieves such high output levels while preserving their hearing and their speakers. To translate a rating down to 1 watt...

<font color='#000000'>Yamahaluver, It does seem these days that people are often concerned with brute power, not unlike sound reinforcement in pro audio, as opposed to low noise, high fidelity, well integrated audio. I believe the Outlaw amp is Class G which starts out as a Class AB in lower...

<font color='#000000'>3dB; Magazines such as Sound&amp;Vision already have and proven that $800 receivers such as the Denon AVR-2803 have about 10dB better SNR via the analog inputs, while also exhibiting better linearity and SNR for PCM, then the likes of many $3500 and up processors.  Check...
