    RX-Z9 or Denon 5803

    No it just means I was too lazy to update it. I will be sending the Z9 back soon so until I get a replacement, I will revert back to the Denon AVR-5803. A few companies want me to review their separates solutions but I am swamped right now so it may have to wait. For now the AVR-5803 will be...

    How about discussing measurement techniques for measuring Rs, Ls and Cp for a speaker cable. Can you discuss the differences of using Cp vs Cs measurment technique for measuring the open circuit capacitance of a speaker cable? How can one more accurately measure Ls at frequencies below...

    Yamaha RX-Z9 First Look

    Agreed O'Shag. I was just listening to my headphones on the Z9 tonight and was impressed with the sonic performance. Silent Cinema is a winner. I will miss this piece when I send it back shortly :( Until the next Yamaha flagship graces my system I will also miss the DSP processing.

    RBH vs. B&W or Paradigm

    Rex; RBH doesn't sell direct unfortunately :( You should look at their Signature line if you can find a local dealer.

    Exclusive Denon AVR-3805 First Look!

    Sounds like an induced ground loop somewhere. Try connecting all components to one outlet. If that doesn't work, check cabling. Try shielded twister pair on interconnects between preamp outs to Zone2 source for biamping. If your still having hum, try to isolate if a cable box, or 3 prong...

    Bodybuilding Thread from Yamaha Z9 Discussion

    My advice on love handles (which I need to actually practice rather than just preach) is to lower Pizza intake :) One of the driving forces behind why I engage in weightlifting is so I can still eat Pizza ;) Seriously though, a regular exercise program with weight training is essential for...

    Denon DVD-5900

    You have to assign i.link to a particular input in the Yamaha. Also, you need to ensure you have i.link enabled in the DVD-5900.

    Outlaw Audio LFM-1 and SVS PB2-ISD Subwoofers Reviewed

    This came at quite a surprise to me as well. It seems Outlaw has a killer sub on their hands and SVS truly deserves the reputation it has garnered.

    Exclusive Denon AVR-3805 First Look!

    You may wish to experiment with speaker placement, perhaps placing your main speakers more closely to back/side walls. Does your subwoofer only kick in for multi channel sources? You may wish to set all speakers to small since the B&W's don't have very low end authority to begin with, and let...

    Yamaha RX-Z9 First Look

    Tony; Great questions, let me try to address: Yes you can and great idea! The Z9 does run very hot, but the heat is mostly on the top of the unit near the heat sinks of the amps. The large PS caps seemed to remain fairly cool so I don't think its as much of an issue with reliability...
