    Amplifier Slew Rate What is it?

    You know I must have read it a few times and missed that. Thanks I will tweak the verbiage. I changed it to: You’ll notice that as you go up in frequency, the value of the sine wave changes at a greater rate than at lower frequencies: this is what slew rate is all about. Simply, slew rate...

    Quite frankly I don't get this one. I search topics just fine on the new forum. If I type "Yamaha receivers" I get a list of related threads. This is how it used to work with our old forum too.

    Oppo BDP-105 Audiophile Universal Blu-ray Player

    Per Oppo: ISO playback was briefly available in the BDP-93/95 players although we never announced it nor officially supported it. However the studios requested through various channels that we remove ISO playback due to the concerns of playing backup movie discs. In a firmware release note...

    Oppo BDP-105 Audiophile Universal Blu-ray Player

    Every Oppo I've bench tested, I checked the bass management and reported on it in the associated reviews. All of them operated pretty similarly though the slopes were a tad shallow on the BDP-105.

    The recent article on sensitivity - Misconceptions/Contradictions, or what?

    I think he meant the speaker would produce a flatter response driven by a constant voltage source rather than varying it based on impedance to try to always keep it at 1watt. I will ask him to clarify the next time I speak with him.

    Tip of The Day: Mixing and Matching Speakers

    Floorstanding surrounds is good if you can place the listening seats far enough away from the surrounds otherwise they will tend to be too localizable. It may be preferred for music, but not as much for movies.

    Funk Audio 18.2 Dual 18" Sealed Subwoofer Preview

    You cannot simply average the SPL data without applying some sort of weighing to the average if you want it to have some sort of real meaning to it.
