The Marantz SR6007 does have Dynamic EQ and it is on. The Dynamic Volume is set to off, not Low, Medium, or Heavy compression. The Reference Level Offset is set to 0dB. What does the Dynamic Volume compression do?

Ok, I now have the Distance on the two front speakers and the sub set to 7.5ft. Both front speakers are at -2.0db and the sub at +3.5db The MultEQ XT is set to Audyssey, not AudysseyFlat or Graphic EQ or Off. The Reference Level Offset is set to 0db. Dynamic Volume is Off. On the M-DAX menu the...

The front speakers were always set to small. Then I just adjusted the crossover to 90Hz instead of 60Hz and set the LPF for the LFE to 120. But now I'm wondering what level to adjust the Speakers & Sub too and what Distance to set them too. Lots of stuff here...

I spoke to a representative at SVS. They have excellent phone service! They answer the phone promptly and the person on the other end is very informative. I told him what speakers and AVR I was using and he looked it up on his computer. Instead of the Audyssey settings he said set them up...

Well, I have been tried different settings in the SR6007 AVR and still am not getting that deep bass that can be felt. The Phase is set to 0 degrees, Low Pass to LFE and volume is at 2 o'clock. I ran the Audyssey set up with those same settings but volume was at 12 o'clock. The sub will play...

I had the Klipsch R-10SW paired with two Martin Logan Motion 4 speakers. Then I returned the Klipsch R-10SW for an SVS SB-2000. It sounded to me that the Klipsch was getting the lower notes....alot. It is only for home theater use in the bedroom. Those little Martin Logan Motion 4 Speakers are...

I purchased a Marantz SR6007 AVR and two Martin Logan Motion 4 bookshelf speakers about one year ago. I have them in a bedroom connected a 70" TV. I placed those little Martin Logan Motion 4 speakers on stands right at the foot of the bed and they sound great to me, excellent for dialog during...

Now I'm trying to decide between the Yamaha RX-V675 or the Denon AVR X-2000. Here at the local Best Buy they have the Denon in the Special Magnolia Room where they claim to keep the best stuff. The Yamaha is out on the floor with everything else that starts out at about $199.00. Is that a hint...

I am in the process of choosing between the Yamaha RX-V475 and the Denon AVR-X1000. Both list for approx. $450.00. The Yamaha does have a MHL HDMI Input, the Denon does not. From what I have been reading is the Audyssey MutEQ XT will calibrate the Sub and that YPAO does not but certain versions...

Wow, thanks Philip. You are a wealth of knowledge. I wasn't taking any of the other stuff into consideration when I was wondering about the cone material. There are so many different variables that come into play.

I have been looking for some Bookshelf Speakers. I was checking out the JBL Website and was looking at the Studio L830 (3-way) and Studio L820 (4-way) Speakers, the List price is $650.95. Then I saw the Big Brother Floor-Standing Speakers, the Studio L880 & L890 (4-way). The smaller one is...

I was about 7 or 8 years old when my Father purchased some 901's in the mid 1970's. They were powered with a Pioneer SX-1010. Since I was so young at the time I didn't know anything about them but I do remember company coming over and saying how excellent they sound. I heard more than my fair...

Awesome markw. Nice sound without making it so complicated. It keeps seeming like the more I learn, the less I know. I thought I found a nice Marantz AVR (SR-5007) that would leave some room for future upgrades but I don't think it's 4ohm rated. I don't know if it is a typo but some specs on it...

Is the Marantz even rated for 4ohm speakers? I know Pioneer brags about that starting with their SC-61 for $1,100. And I'm not sure if this is a typo but this says the Marantz has at 6 Ohm - THD10 % - 7 channel(s) (Surround) ! Marantz SR5007 - AV receivers - CNET...

Hi I am fairly new to the audiophile knowledge and am trying to get a nice sound package to go with a new 65" TV in the bedroom. I had a Bose Cinamate 2 little speaker set up in my bedroom where this TV is. I liked it because it came with speaker stands and I was able to place them real close at...

And it seems like Emotiva does not skimp on the materials. Plus they claim it does produce 200 watts of power to all channels all the time, not just at the peaks. XPA-5 | 200W x 5 | Emotiva Audio | High-end audio components for audiophiles and videophiles, spanning 2-channel music systems, as...

I Really like the specs on that XPA-5.

Yea, I was not aware that the toroidal transformers would produce a humming noise. That would be pretty annoying. But it would definitely need to be rated down to 4ohms. I was trying to plan on starting off with a really nice supper hefty Amp and Receiver to future proof the sound system. I...

Wow, so they might try and trick somebody with the extra weight. But it seems i f they put that weight in the right places it could be very beneficial. It sure looks like Emotiva did a good job of making their XPA-5 pretty hefty. It looks like they use 1 toroidal transformer for each channel...

Thanks Isiberian for the insight. The picture of the inside of the Emotiva XPA-5 sure looked extra beefy. The Marantz MM 7055 doesn't show what it looks like inside. I thought they might be afraid to show what's inside. Today's receivers may be jam-packed with the latest technology, but it...
