    CEDIA 2004 EXPO Coverage OFFICIAL THREAD

    Jeff believes the approvals will be inplace when the 3910 starts shipping. I asked Jeff to do a little write up on all the issues of getting this provisioning. Its not a fault on their part as from a technical standpoint, the players are ready! Here are some pics of the new players along...

    Yamaha RX-Z9 with SF Cremonas?

    I enjoy some of the DSP modes for concert DVD's and movies. The "Presence" speakers do add another dimension and help to preserve imaging of main speakers. At this point when trying to decide between the Z9 and 5803, I would wait a few more days :) We will be covering alot of new products...

    CD/DVD-A/SACD Dynamic Comparisons

    WmAX; I agree with you 100% and feel it is truly sad. We will be posting an interview article on cables with a high end speaker manufacturer that will surprise everyone. Realize that many of the high end manufacturers try to support their dealers who usually promote very high $$$ cables...

    Yamaha RX-Z9 -or- Anthem Statement D1

    John; The D1 looks like a hard to beat processor. After they upgrade it for i.link and HDMI, we will likely be doing a review on it. But it looks really good, at least on paper that is.

    Yamaha RX-Z9 with SF Cremonas?

    I can personally vouch for the Z9 sound quality. My home theater just doesn't sound the same without it :( Amp section is superb, DSP processing is exceptional (if that sort of thing is your bag). I can't wait for the next Z series Receiver from Yamaha! BTW both my listening tests and...

    My little system and a pic

    Facing out usually works better to avoid cancelling especially when in close proximity. However you need to figure a way to blend the mains with the sub and not have an excessive bass bump or cancelling within the overlapping bandwidth of the two. Its not easy (though not impossible) which is...

    My little system and a pic

    Nova; Definately a nice setup. If I may suggest somewhere down the road try experimenting with a nice 5 Channel power amp. I have found RBH speakers to truly sing with the best of amplification. Not to say the Denon AVR-3805 is a slouch, but you owe it to yourself to feed them a dedicated...

    Biamping 3805: Wrong Poliarities?

    Jack it is difficult for us to mention a problem that didn't exist in our test unit. When I meet with Denon at Cedia next week I will bring this up with them, although their tech support I spoke with in the past didn't seem to think there was a problem.

    RCA Cables

    The Jon Risch Cross Coax is about on par with a decent quality 12AWG Zip cord cable one can buy at a supply store such as Lowes or Home Depot. The problem is, it is rather involving to produce and delicate to handle. It is certainly worth a try as far as DIY cables go. We will soon be posting...

    Loud Music Can Cause Lung Collapse?

    Apparently yes according to a report in the medical journal Thorax, they described cases of young men who suffered a lung collapse -- technically called Pneumothorax. According to the Reuters Report: “A pneumothorax occurs when a small rupture in one of the lungs allows air to leak into...

    Speakers; When is good enough, enough

    Keep all the expensive equipment, but dump those cables. It is ridiculous to have a cable with an RLC box slapped on it to essentially roll off the highs, especially for $23K. Tone controls should be done in the digital domain, if at all. Here is an interesting link showing the inside of an...
