The Yamaha RX-V2500 has the best preamp in a $1k system we have seen. It makes for a fantastic processor.

The Emotiva MPS-1 is a very good amp (currently under review) for your application. Its switching design makes it very efficient, cool running and should meet your power needs. Best of all its in your price range of $2000.

Your speculations are incorrect. Glad we have measurements :rolleyes: The maximum any Class A/B amp can deliver out of one 15A outlet is about 120*15*(0.4) = 720 watts. Whether you have a so called powerhouse 7CH amp that boasts 200wpc x 7 yet has one power cord, or the amp section in the...

There is more to performance than just sheer power. As far as power goes, the amps in the 5805 will deliver everything a 15A wall outlet can deliver! The preamp section of the 3805 isn't in the same league as the 5805, nor is the room correction system of the former.

Yeah right, we can't even get our readers to buy quality Audioholics Apparel which on average have a $2 profit margin :rolleyes:

Of course you are stating this as your opinion right? The old mentality of Separates automatically outperforming todays flagship receivers is yet another audio myth we will bust. Stay tuned for my 40 page review of the Denon AVR-5805 coming very soon!

LOL, we still have to represent mass appeal ;)

I added a few extra options (ie, RBH, Energy, Bose, Boston Acoustics), and Other to make it more well rounded.

Wow sounds like someone came fresh from the AA forum ;) The moment one thinks spending more money on gear guarantees better performance, is the moment the Audioholics community has to de-program the marketing brainwashing that has occurred. :eek:

I think what is most interesting here is that people are debating on spending more money on a CD player to achieve better sonics. Yet nobody talks about investing to the component that actually affects the sound the most - THE ROOM! Getting the loudspeaker to room integration is by far the...

Only a Republican would think calling someone "Liberal" who doesn't believe in the current regime we live under represents equality.

I am right there with you Buckeye. Its not just Bush, its his whole regime. But hey, he created tons of new jobs. Walmart employment is at its highest yet ;)

Only a Republican resorts to name calling and labeling. It's sad that they have to do that but not surprising. Usually they are the most hypocritical people (except Clint of course ;)) (ie. drug addict Rush Limbaugh) who like to impose their Christian views as divine law, but lets not go down...

Zip; Price factors into the scorecard as the ratings are not absolute but comparitive to products in their category. I understand your concerns and yes the DVD-2910 is a phenominal player and value. I cannot comment on the differences of the two since I reviewed neither nor did i hear...

Agreed! But hey, we are going to Mars (read article) in 20 years right?, Giving billions of aid to Africa (read article)? And oh yea, our new solution to the Energy crisis is reverting back to Nuclear Fission (read article). What a great era for us :) If you did a poll on what type of...

Zip there is more to a player than just the HQV benchmark tests or any benchmark tests for that matter. The build quality and internal parts for this player are in a different class than most cheaper players.

It doesn't work that way. Ideally the voltage output of 2 speakers in parallel will be the same as having one, but in return the current demand on the amp will be double. This assume the amp behaves like an ideal voltage source, which few do. Thus an amp that can deliver 250wpc into 8 ohms...
