    Has anyone had a positive experience with YPAO at all?

    I always use the through setting for the other ones seem to cut the bass too much for me and don't sound quite right. I have played around alot with this and for me, that works the best for sound quality

    Dynamic EQ and equivalent for Yamaha

    Yes, I have the Yamaha controller app and I have YPAO volume on, adapted drc on auto which is what the manual suggested. I will see if I can find it. Someone here suggested to another person to use it for setup and it worked really well for me.

    Dynamic EQ and equivalent for Yamaha

    Could be but when I turn off all eq, at lower volumes my system has more bass. With the eq on my Yamaha turned on, I am thinking it's not adjusting that well for bass at lower volumes. At higher volume it does. I will say after properly setting up YPAO ( which I learned how to do from a link on...

    Dynamic EQ and equivalent for Yamaha

    I have played around alot with all the Yamaha settings and read the manual and as many articles as I can find on this matter. In my opinion, at lower volumes you get a more balanced sound. With that said, they just don't do much for bass enhancement at lower volumes. This was part of the problem...

    Def Tech StudioMonitor 65 before and after break-in period

    I am still pretty new at this but when I went back and changed the settings from flat to through somehow my tower had more bass.

    Def Tech StudioMonitor 65 before and after break-in period

    I found that when I set my Yamaha to flat I didn't have as much bass coming from my towers as I do setting it to through. Maybe I am not doing something right? Have you tried the through setting to see if you have more bass?

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    Not at all, don't like it one bit. I believe you and adrein are correct, I just haven't listened to the Denon before and I have researched all the positive reviews and of course the smoking deal on the 4300, it got me to thinking. Thats why I posted here before I did anything since I know enough...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    So maybe going ahead with a subwoofer purchase might just also be the way to go. As I see it, it might just take some of the pressure off the Yamaha power just enough to where I might not have any problems with more demanding movie material. If it's true you only need a few Watts, 37 per channel...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    That's one thing I am going to do. I am going to do some serious listening with some demanding material at the volumes I like before making a decision to purchase anything. The conversation that we had stopped me from running out and buying a 1070 already. It's hard when you hear all the...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    Decisions, decisions. I guess after all my research and advice I've gotten here, it all boils down to how the Denon performs in my environment and how I like what I hear along with the different features it has. If I do purchase the Denon, I will have 60 days to decide if it's worth it to me to...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    Not necessarily, I know it's been talked about alot but how does audyssey play into the equation? I have noticed alot of members wouldn't consider a receiver without it. Not to start a long debate, but if there is not much differences between avr's in the power Dept so audyssey must do something...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    Even though where I am currently it's not a problem so far (pretty solid building) that's why I haven't gone out and purchased anything yet without posting here first. It's just hard to get the bad taste out of my mouth on the 860. I even complained where I bought it before the review came out...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    I don't have a subwoofer at this time, just 5 speaker system. You are right on with what I was thinking. Better avr and not need to get an amp. This would give me better options given the 860's shortcomings that I have already noticed. I don't listen to high volumes very often anyway. I have...

    Need help with amplifier for Yamaha rxa 860

    Instead of adding an amplifier, is the Denon avrx 4300 to good a deal to pass up at this time? It would solve some of the problems that the 860 has per the review on it. I know a subwoofer purchase is in my future but the deal on the Denon sounds almost too good to pass up. Or should I keep the...

    Tales From the Rabbit Hole

    I hoped not, at least those are holding well I take. I have had some advice with mounts to drill into my speakers. Good to see yours are the kind I should check into.
