| Budget friendly receiver choice Found some actual output test results for my Onkyo TX-RZ810; 2 channels driven (still looking for multichannel numbers to better reflect bi amping). Source: | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice Currently have an Onkyo; surprised to hear that Onkyo (particularly older ones) would be worse than the other major brands (Yamaha, Sony, Denon, Pioneer, etc). There is always a risk. But compared to for example cars (where its not just age, but... | |
| KEF LS50 Meta I am yet to dive into 'small monitor' speakers, mostily driven by the addition of a 18" sub to my main system (which led me to select 'small' for my full size front speakers in the receiver settings). Currently trying to audition teh LS50 Meta. I ... | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice That goes with every purchase of a used item; can't have it both ways. And did not need (still not sure what is actually would do for me) HDMI 2.1. Or 8k for that matter (I still watch 95% in non 4k, so have likely a few years to even 'fill' the 4... | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice The Anthem MRX 710 slipped through my hands. I scored an Onkyo TX-RZ81, which seemed to fit my wish list. Have not hooked it up yet. Has bi amping (zone 2 amps used, selectable in menu), should have decent power (not sure how it handles low impe... | |
| Only two tracks to test your system, forever! chocaholic and richdirector: Was curious about the Hippo, so listened to it. Seems intriguing. How low does that bass play (in Hz). Now need to find myself a decent download of the tune (only listened on computer). Updated: ordered CD | |
| Onkyo TX-NR3009 vs Onkyo TX-RZ810 - how important is 4k passthrough and HDR10? Under what scenario do I need to use the '4k passthrough' and HDR of the receiver? Is that already needed when 'passing' the cable box HDMI signal to the TV (via receiver)? Or only if a source outside the cable box or TV (think Roku app) is used... | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice anotherbox, how did you 'manage' bi amping (what connections used) with the Onkyo TX NR6100? Looks fairly 'meager' connections (used to seeing 7 pre outs): | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice Any letters with that Denon 4300? HDMI 2.1? Pre out? Bi amp option? Decent current (i.e. power in low impedance speekers)? | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice Erik_squires: what does 'use audio return channel' mean? TV with that 'special' HDMI ? What is the difference between say 520 and 710? | |
| Budget friendly receiver choice soix, that one is near by (pawnshop) and I already offered them (but reduced their price since the needed software/mic is not included). Unclear if it handles my 4k TV (Visio M75). 12many: last year may not be enough. Looking also at Marantz ... | |
| So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System Yup. That is why I decided against buying that system. Glad you confirmed my decision! | |
| Why do Tube Amps sound more romantic v SS amps Tube amps like Class A are preceived 'warm' because they heat the room so nicely! | |
| FUSE Question...Very Confused Please Help ! That was an (unsuccessful) attempt to be sarcastic (audiophiles often floating in higher spheres discussing effects of power cables, plugs, electrical ground, etc). The obvious (against sarcastic) answer is: real audiphiles replace any fuse with... | |
| FUSE Question...Very Confused Please Help ! That brings up the question: which fuses sound best? |
