P PENG Audioholic Slumlord Oct 23, 2004 19,797 0 113 Ontario Sep 7, 2018 #3 For the same money, I also prefer the 1080/F5.2 combination. From what I can see, the larger F6.2 would offer no advantage unless used without subwoofer. I suspect those speakers should always be used with a subwoofer and crossover set high. Reactions: TechHDS

Thanks all. Yes, even I thought 1070 is a better option.

The only way 1080 is better than 1070 is if Yamaha has hidden hdmi 2.1 abilities in there that can be enabled in a future firmware update. I don’t think that is the case though.
