<font color='#000000'>I am not surprised about the Sting releases. &nbsp;I have always found his recordings were well done, some of the best sounding pop CD's IMO. &nbsp;I have a few of his DTS discs that also sound quite good. As for Rush, most of their CD's weren't recorded that well, in fact...

<font color='#000000'>Personally Bob, if one were to spend $600 on the Denon AVR-2802 at Crutchfield, I would alternatively suggest they spend about the same elsewhere for the newer and improved AVE-2803 which implements dual differential DAC's all around, and has better SNR than even the...

<font color='#000000'>Eric/All; Just a point of clarification, just because Receiver A rates frequency response and THD differently than Receiver B, doesn't necessarily mean one is better than the other. It is often the case that lower end receivers are rated only down to 40Hz to give the...

<font color='#000000'>Dis; Congrats on your purchase. &nbsp;There is nothing wrong with paper/kevlar drivers and B&amp;W does employ very high quality units for their bass drivers. &nbsp;Good luck.</font>

<font color='#000000'>I believe you are right regarding the differences between the Z1 and AZ1 as they are sold in different markets and for some reason Yamaha chooses to sell their flagships minus the tuner in the international marketplace. &nbsp; As for keeping your 995 as a pre/pro and...

<font color='#000000'>Hi Brian; We don't have all of the details yet on the new Parasound Halo processor but from what we have heard so far it is supposed to be quite impressive. &nbsp;I plan on personally reviewing one in a few months and I am most excited to do so. &nbsp;They have some very...

<font color='#000000'>Hi Peter; I would classify her as Jazz with lumps &nbsp; You wont find her music on Smooth Jazz radio stations. &nbsp;I find her music to be melodic, non simplistic, with interesting lyrics to say the least. &nbsp;When her band kicks in, things really get interesting.</font>

<font color='#000000'>Hey people, I thought I would add my 2cents for what its worth. &nbsp;So far I have been most impressed with Patricia Barbers 2CH SACD's. &nbsp;They make my system sound its best and now have me hooked on two channel again &nbsp; Her music isn't for everyone, but I have...

<font color='#000000'>Steve; That is some very interesting data, independent of our own findings. &nbsp;I wonder if the popping is a result of digital clipping in the processor now that the unit is being tasked to produce a broader frequency spectrum. &nbsp;After all we all noticed it sounded...

<font color='#000000'>No problem John.  I am a bit irritable myself right now since I am at home recovering from a very fun sinus surgery   Sorry that you disagreed with our subjective criticisms but again, if you preferred its sonic signature over other units then by all means pay no...

<font color='#000000'>Audiouser; You make some excellent points and voice very good questions. &nbsp;Perhaps Yamaha will come on here when they have the time and answer some of your questions. As for profit margins between receivers and very esoteric high end separates, and sometimes over...

<font color='#000000'>Guys; Hopefully I can make an annoucement as to what I will be reviewing after the sneak peek I will bet getting next month when I meet the President of Yamaha's Electronics division in Ft. Lauderdale in early August. &nbsp;I will tell you this much, it may not be one of...

<font color='#000000'>Bob; I am starting to feel the same way. &nbsp;With the power these new super receivers are offering, packed with their superior technology over most dedicated pre/pros in their price range and beyond, it is often the case when people employ reasonably efficient speakers...

<font color='#000000'>Audiouser, the press release is on our front page. &nbsp;However, here is a direct link. Yamaha Press Release for New Receivers 2003 Bob; You are correct, the Denon AVR-5803 does not have the room correction feature and we are very excited that Yamaha has choosen us as...

<font color='#000000'>Hi Bob; We are very interested in their new YPAO feature with active room correction and calibration. &nbsp; I personally feel this could be the next biggest thing in high performance receivers/processors.</font>

<font color='#000000'>You are correct MikeyB we are sometimes unfair to manufacturers by explicitly stating our views that we believe they manufactured substandard products for the money.  That was one of the primary reasons for starting this website over 4 years ago. We apologize that you may...
