For our forum folks, here is a sneak peek at my review of the new Emotiva MPS-1 7CH amplifier. This will go online and get its format tweaks on Monday, but you guys get to see it first ;) Emotiva MPS-1 Amplifier Review

Clint; I was about to slap you upside the head for giving away this movie until I read your prior warning post :) Ok lets have at it. 1) You have to realize that Anakin was a derranged love struck teen. He was of the mindset of "If I can't have her, nobody can". 2) Yes the scene where...

Thanks for the update Chris. We look forward to testing the new firmware updates. Perhaps they meant 40Hz bandwidth correction? Sometimes meaning gets lost in translation via email exchanges and such? Also feel free to post before and after bass calibration graphs here if you will and when...

Again this is a text book # assuming perfect lab conditions with no power supply losses. The truth of the matter is transformers saturate, hysteresis becomes a factor. When you factor in all of the real world losses, 40% is actually still very generous and rarely achieved. We are constructing...

The DVD-A vs DTS soundtracks in this disc are very close. There are times such as the Dave Mathews track where I think I prefer the DTS track as I feel it has a bit more punch in the bass and seeing the video really adds realism to the experience. All of these formats have equal potential...

Actually real world class a/b amp efficiency is more like 35-40%. 55% is textbook nonsense, without factoring in power supply losses. The 50A rating is instantaneous like others here have stated. Its impossible for their receiver to deliver anything more than 15A continuously based on the...

Oh I am so afraid the movie theater will be fully packed when your friends arrive ;)

Agreed. Until I can get a really cool space combat Sim (preferably a Star Trek one) or a slick multi player hand to hand combat game, I will stick to Pac Man :) Oh yea, hockey and boxing are cool too...

Brian; Why did you sell your sub? That is one awesome sub!!! I am currently working on a 3 sub install on the AVR-5805 and will be writing up an article about it shortly. I should hear back from Denon Japan sometime late next week on the Audyssey issue. Regardless, it is doubtful...

I think its, ;)

Actually I think you are confusing this with an older press release regarding ver2.0. This DOES include ver1.3 !!!

This is a good place to reference with questions regarding CD/DVD formats, compression, oversampling, technology, etc. Audio Formats, Specs

Pioneer Elite makes some very nice receivers. We recently made contact with them and currently reviewing a Pioneer receiver at the moment. Hopefully we will do Elite soon as well.

I hope its the real transformer characters (Megatron, Optimus, Brawn, etc) and not the junk they are doing today :rolleyes:

Unfortunately Integra Research didn't allow us to hold on to the unit long enough to support in our forums. My advice is to contact them directly at: eharper@onkyousa.com I would also inquire if the firmware issues I noted in the review have been resolved.

KEvin; My review of the MPS-1 should be out by next week. Stay tuned. The Rotel is a more powerful amp, but also less efficient and as you pointed out has 2 less channels. Both are great amps in their own regard so you must decide which one is more appropriate for your application.

I think you are confusing Low Frequencies (LF) with LFE - Low Frequency Effect channel. LFE will never goto the mains unless you select no subwoofers. However, the bass from the main channels will goto the subwoofer if you select "LFE + Main".

First off, I recommend you check with your dealer that you have the latest firmware installed as it helps with HDMI video issues. The latest firmware I am aware of is the following file: AVR_m0128_s0104_d1519_d1612_d1720_z0112_zd1802_v0083_dm10211_dm8bl1027_dm81027.bin Regarding audio...
