I'll chime in with the others that pushing decent audio via the HDMI output from the PC is the best way to go. I do this on my Man Cave /Junk Room system. I checked and your Yamaha Receiver with do HDMI Pass-through so I'd connect an HDMI output from the PC to it, and then output it to your TV...

I became a fan of Worlds Best Cables, after doing much research, when helping out a Buddy get his system to stop blowing up his expensive Audio Research REF600 Monoblock Amplifiers (See Need a little advice on some AR Mono Block Amplifiers...and Speaker wires ) I got him to dump the CV...

Hi Gents, I just thought I'd update you on this project after almost 3 years of operation. My Buddy has not had any failures since my efforts to replace the MIT cables. As my Grandfather used to say: "The proof is in the pudding". ;)

I too have posted on this question before, and while I think the dedicated Home Theater as a hobby is in decline, I don't think it was ever mainstream due to the real estate, capital cost, and complexity of doing it right. I'm like most who have systems, but no dedicated Home Theater. (I have 4...

Hi Gents, Just when I thought I'd put this thread to bed, I've been bugged for a while that there is not much low bass with the Zone 2 "PC" speakers. The inexpensive JBL Loft50s just don't get down (37 Hz is spec'd but I don't believe there's much output down there). Eventually I tried...

Congratulations to Gene and all the Crew here at Audioholics. Hopefully the next 25 years will be even more prosperous for you.

That's quite a haul! Al Stewart's “Nostradamus” and the beautifully haunting “Roads to Moscow” are classics, as are some of the Grand Funk tunes. On the Canadian Rock collection there's some gems like High School Confidential, Patio Lanterns, and there's even a hit by Klaatu. I could go on and...

Like @lovinthehd I'm not a huge fan of placing TVs above the Fireplace, but in situations like yours it's really the only practical solution - especially with all those windows. But I'd recommend getting a Fireplace TV Mount (bracket) that pulls down. (Just type that into your search engine as...

I'm only part way into the Concert but dam the bass was overwhelming. I typically have my Subs set at +4 each after Audyessy 32 is finished with the Atmos system's set up. But after about the second or third performance I had to throttle it back to +2. So far I'm liking the show and the Atmos...

Looks like a party on the water may be happening!

This was a gift from my youngest son for my birthday. (I typically give them a list for guidance as I'm terrible to buy something for.) I thought I'd stretch myself outside of my typical Rock / Blues/Pop universe. And I wanted another Atmos disk at the same time. The review were good so I'm...

The system I referenced has a Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Kit that plugged right into the Sub, and was powered by the Sub. For the receiver end- The Transmitter end had an adapter you plugged into the wall. I know Rocketfish had a Kit as I've got one stored somewhere around here that I got cheap...

As @Golfx said, the AVR compensates during setup for the extra delay. Yes, you'd have to set it up again after installing the wireless adapter.

WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) strikes again! My only suggestion would be to do the Sub-woofer crawl to find the next best (acceptable?) location. If the Sub RCA cable is an issue look into a wireless adapter. I had to do that for the Family Room Klipsch Sub after the Great Reno of 2018! It...

Hey Gents, if you want to be amongst the first and get $100 of it's $1199 USD price (HSU rarely discounts much) try this out: The new HSU VTF-TN1! Deeper bass at a lower price I wish I could afford it.

Smokin" ;)

This sounds exactly like an: Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen) Smart speaker with Alexa - I have a couple of them just to integrate Spotify into a small system I have in the garage at the Cabin, and a small system by the Dining Room table at home. They work fabulously with Spotify. All you need...

Just ask @shadyJ

I like good sound sources but we have Spotify on a Family plan where a handful of us all listen to whatever we want commercial free. It's really for casual listening as it's not lossless but the selection is immense. I use it mostly off my iPhone onto Bluetooth Headphones when I'm working around...

I used to be a big fan of AM/FM radio in my youth, but I've found it lacking in recent times (like the last decade or so). I'm much more into streaming for casual listening and only listen to radio in my car on a sports station. I'd encourage you to take a look at this option instead of internet...
