M Bradley/Rich; Sorry I admittedly don't follow video as closely as I should. If what I wrote was either unclear or not accurate, please confirm and I will update that portion of the review. Thanks and sorry for the confusion.

Audio specifications run the gamut from merely “nice to know” to “genuinely useful.” A speaker’s impedance rating should be one of those genuinely useful specs, but you can’t always trust them. What does it really mean when a company rates their speaker as 8 ohms, or 4 ohms? Read on to get...

Make sure you disable stereo downmixing and then try to recompare.

We reviewed Oppo's newest Ultra HD Blu-ray players, the UDP-203 and souped-up audiophile UDP-205. Both had very responsive interfaces, silent operation, and exhibited state of the art audio and video playback performance with every type of source material thrown at them. The UDP-203 and 205...

The end is nigh for net neutrality as it exists today. Trump-appointed FCC chief Ajit Pai put forth a plan last week that promises to roll back Obama’s net neutrality policies. All that’s left is for the five FCC commissioners to vote in December, making the rollback a virtual certainty. But...

SVS has launched a new subwoofer line to replace their venerable 13-Ultra Series: the 4000 Series, which imports much of the technology from their flagship 16-Ultra line and mates it with the 13-Ultra designs. The result is an improvement in every way over the 13-Ultra subwoofers, especially in...

Consider yourself luckly that you're not a Trekkie bc I have a love hate (mostly hate) view of STD as a result of their non adherence to canon despite claiming otherwise, the lack of synergy between the characters, the lack of hope ALL prior Star Trek has portrayed, and.... the money grab by CBS...

You really should give DS9 a shot. IMO, it represents the very best of Star Trek. It had incredible character development, great action / space battles, and intricate story arcs that build right till the very end. And yes you're right, sadly The Orville has more in common with Star Trek than STD.

It's a decent show if you pretend it's really not Star Trek because the only thing it has in common with other Star Trek shows is in name. The klingon remake are absolutely horrible in costume, makeup and ship design. They are a boring, lifeless race as a result which is far from what they were...

I concur with TLS Guy. Turn that 2kHz dip off if you're gonna use Audyssey at all. Also, if you have a recent Denon/Marantz, it's best to use the Audyssey editor app and limit the EQ correction to under 5kHz, preferably around 500Hz, around the room transition frequency where the speaker...

The economics of videogames is serious business. Budgets for high-profile games routinely outclass those of blockbuster movies, not to mention the GDP of small independent nations. But, did EA take a step too far in trying to wring even greater profits from games through overuse of...

Sound United and DTS have announced the availability of an important DTS Virtual:X firmware update for many Denon and Marantz A/V receiver models. Even more models are getting the update over the next couple of months. DTS says its Virtual:X technology can bring increased levels of immersion to...

Cambridge Audio recently released two new AV receivers CXR120 and the CX200. Like most higher end audio companies, the Cambridge units focus more on the audio with powerful A/B amplifier sections, but lag a bit on features when compared to many of their competitors. These particular units lack...
