    Powercords

    Its a good thought but often not the case. As for exotic power cords, I believe this sign says it all ;) From the Transparent Cable Booth at CEDIA

    NO. You need HDMI Ver. 1.3. There is no current chipset in production that will support it yet. No first Gen HD Players will pass TrueHD audio. They will downconvert to DD but at 640kbps.

    I stopped by the McIntosh booth and heard their line array speakers which sounded like boom and sizzle to me :rolleyes:

    Transparent Cable Rings in on CEDIA While perusing the show floor we noted this interesting sign from Transparent Cable booth that read “<I>add $$$ to your installs here</I>” while pointing to their booth. Very interesting indeed and indicative of a company that prides itself on its outstanding...

    Official Denon AVR-5805 Review Support Thread

    Try changing the Display Mode in the OSD setup. Why would this system sway your speaker/acoustical treatment purchases? Audyssey is not a replacement for either. At best its a supplement. You still need good passive treatment for this system to perform optimally. That being said, the...

    Their booth was a madhouse, especially since they had prime location. The 79 was the only new player they really focused on when I visited them. I will check their press releases to see if anything else is new.

    Yamaha RX-V4600 Receiver Review Thread

    Taking a look at the S&V 5CH amp measurements for the 2 Yammie receivers, it appears they both initiate their current protection at the same power delivery threshold. Without this feature, they would likely have to have larger heat sink area to meet UL or what they feel to be their own safety...

    Sheep I wondered that myself but I believe the active Servo must help that out to some extent. Also, since its oval shaped, it doesn't have corners like a square woofer, so it shouldn't suffer those effect as much. Don't forget anytime you put speakers in a wall, there are always compromises...

    Kinda of silly to sell this unit b/c of one feature not working as expected. As I mentioned before to someone using the 5805 with a Velodyne DD18 sub, the Velodyne Software will likely yield much better results than Audyssey for bass correction. The receiver is still killer regardless. I will...

    Denon already has an Audyssey fix. The problem is it didnt upload correctly on my test unit. I am having Denon ship me a new 5805 with it uploaded but unfortunately I will be relocating next month and won't have our primary test lab built until late November. In all likelyhood we wont be able...

    Yamaha RX-V4600 Receiver Review Thread

    Actually with a linear amp and power supply, expect real world efficiency to be around 40%, including transformer losses, power factor correction, etc. Thus the consumed power would be 1250watts in this case or 10.4amp draw from the wall. This kind of draw will definately cause the line...

    Yamaha Announces RX-V2600 Receiver with HDMI Upconversion & Scaling!

    I strongly disagree with this generalization. Receivers are being packed with newer and better technologies at a much lower cost than separates. For example, there is no separates solution on the market in the same price class as the Denon AVR-5805 that can match its processing power...
