| Audacy room correction. Corrected? Srwooten-Those are only the highlights of the recommendations in the guide. It was based on the comments and experiences of many users and vetted by the CTO of Audyssey. It is worth a read for anyone using Audyssey.Kal | |
| Audacy room correction. Corrected? I appreciate the reply, Jim. Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.Kal | |
| Audacy room correction. Corrected? First, I apologize for assuming otherwise as I did not take your handle literally. I will try to write more carefully.A preamp/processor is, virtually, an A/V receiver without amps and, therefore, a device which works only with external amps. This... | |
| Trying to sharpen the vocals...EQ related question This is a very unusual system but, it seems to me, the likely culprit is the Bose system. You may appreciate some things about it but, clearly, the lack of midrange presentation says otherwise. I have yet to hear an AcoustiMass system that has a d... | |
| Audacy room correction. Corrected? I am surprised. Now, do not take this personally but, imho, most people who feel this way have either done the Audyssey setup poorly (I messed up my first time and from time to time even though I have done it many times) or are simply adapted to t... | |
| Audacy room correction. Corrected? 1. It is Audyssey, not Audacy.2. It works in the preamp/processor portion of the AVR and does not care whether you use the built-in amps, external amps or some combination of the two.3. Just make sure that you do the measurements and setup with th... | |
| By-pass or Remove X-over in Revel Studios 1st Gen This is a mistake unless you have the tools to simulate the transfer function of the original crossover. Remember that the crossover is tailored to these speakers and accomplishes much more than a textbook division of frequencies at a fixed slope.... | |
| Audio only processor - without video? I did not say you cannot get the HD codecs; I said you cannot get the best of them which means effective bass/level/delay management and DSP (including room EQ). With analog, you can only approximate since these are not as well implemented in play... | |
| Blu ray and SACD BTW, several new universal players were announced/shown at CEDIA to join those already noted.Kal | |
| Blu ray and SACD Those are running topics. The column is not a tutorial.Kal | |
| Audio only processor - without video? Not that I know of and for good reasons.1. To get the best of the HD audio codecs, one needs HDMI and that carries video.2. To get the most convenient switching, run audio and video through the same device.3. Many processors add effective video pr... | |
| biwired RCA speaker cables? Why? The advantages of biwiring are minor but, surely, only appreciated in the context of an excellent setup. Use of RCA connectors for speakers would disqualify.Kal | |
| How many versions do you have? Many of many. Probably have a few of the Four Seasons and multiples of many symphonies.Kal | |
| output to HDMI cable from non-HDMI receiver? If all you are using is a cable-box, this will be OK but, if you are planning to use a BluRay source now or in the future, it will not be sufficient.Without HDMI input to the receiver, you will have to send the video from the source to the display... | |
| Best 5.1 ONLY receiver every made? AVRs from "back in the day" will lack the new and important features of current AVRs. Besides, you can always add amps and subs if you want the "biggest, baddest, and best sounding 5.1."Kal |
