    DVD-5900/DVD-S2300

    <font color='#000000'>I don't think the 2300 should be directly compared to the DVD-5900 as it is half the price. &nbsp;A more fair comparision would be the Yamaha 2300 and Denon 2900. &nbsp;IMO, I would give the video edge to the Yamaha and the audio edge to the Denon. &nbsp;However, both are...

    Exclusive Denon DVD-5900 Review!

    <font color='#000000'>Ben; You are correct the DVD-5900 does remember disc place when powered on/off, just not when the disc is removed and then reinserted. &nbsp;Thanks for noticing and I have updated accordingly. You still have aspect ratio control via display/dvd player when using component...

    Exclusive Denon DVD-5900 Review!

    <font color='#000000'>Pam; Thanks for your thoughtful feedback on my review. &nbsp;I always try to integrate set-up tips in my reviews cause I know how painful it can be to set-up new products. &nbsp;It is even more so for me since I rarely read user manuals (low attention span) and have to...

    receiver's

    <font color='#000000'>Hi Mike; B&amp;K receivers do look nice and are certainly compariblein many aspects to flagship receivers from the big brands previously mentioned. &nbsp;For some reason B&amp;K seems reluctant in having online audio websites review their products. &nbsp;We have requested...

    rx-v3300 vs 2400 power

    <font color='#000000'>Actually all of the receivers in this comparison utlize traditional linear Class AB amps. Thus the efficiencies between the 3300 and 2400 are very similar. &nbsp;The fact is the 3300 does have a BIGGER power supply thus will likely provide more juice than the 2400 when...

    Axiom M2i's Speaker Measurements

    <font color='#000000'>Lets also not forget that just because a speaker measures well in an on-axis nearfield situation, doesn't necessarily tell you how it plays into a room. &nbsp;You can measure identical nearfield response of two different speakers, but how they ultimately play into the room...

    B&K Ref 50

    <font color='#000000'>Audio1; I too would love to find a processor for $2-3K that can offer all of the features of a $1K receiver. &nbsp;The AVR-3805 will likely make for an excellent pre/pro! &nbsp;LEt us know how it works out.</font>

    Some days good, some bad!

    <font color='#000000'>Good point. &nbsp;Didn't think about the power as being another possible reason. Yes a good beer (IPA especially ;) ) or Red wine works wonders on listening experience &nbsp;</font>

    RX-V2400 DTS Problem

    <font color='#000000'>Make sure you have DD/DTS bitstream enabled on your DVD player audio set-up menu. &nbsp;Then select the DTS soundtrack in the DVD menu. &nbsp;On your receiver, set it to &quot;Auto&quot;. &nbsp;Once it locks on, press DTS button.</font>

    Anyone owns a Yamaha RX-Z9 yet?

    <font color='#000000'>Jab; I don't see how the crossover will degrage performance in a single wire vs biwire scenario. &nbsp;There really is little to no benefit of biwiring other than reducing cable impedance (namely resistance, and possibly inductance). &nbsp;However, if you start out with a...

    Canton Karat Reference 2 DC

    <font color='#000000'>Peter; Using a receivers internal amps with an amp section any less than a flagship product such as those from Denon, B&amp;K, Yamaha, etc is not advised given the low sensitivity and reactive load impedance these speakers present. &nbsp;I would strongly caution potential...

    Integra Research RDC-7.1

    <font color='#000000'>Not sure about half baked. &nbsp;The audio I am hearing from the Denon DVD-5900 doing SACD is nothing short of stellar! My only gripe is dealing with configuration differences between analog for SACD and Dlink for DVD-A. &nbsp;Though this problem will be short lived soon...
