| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system So I talked with Buzz at Crutchfield. He agreed that the Yamaha RX-A1070 would be a good choice for me, then he mentioned that a model 1080 is coming out soon. He said the only difference would be Amazon Alexa. He also hinted that I should wait... | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system auxinput,So far the Yam RX -A1070 is number one on my list. Gonna have another talk with Crutchfield sometime this week. Still have some wifi questions, but the spec's look great.JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system You are VERY right. I just went to Crutchfield and they only had 5 units to choose from! Wow, I had no idea! JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system auxinput, Thanks for the answer. In the old days leaving a channel with out a load was a bad thing. And as I just said, I thinking more and more about sticking with a 5.1 setup.Going to start over my search. BTW, I agree about the different soun... | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system phil9624 and audiotroy,There more I think about it, I'll probably never go past 5.1. I'm going to start looking at just 5.1 receivers. I still want the wifi etc. Does that put a wrench in things? Almost everything seems to be 7.2 - 15.2. And I ... | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system audiotroy,phil9624 got mt to thinkin'. If you don't use all the channels, do you need to put a load on them? ie, only using 5.1 on a 9.1 unit.Thanks.JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system Hi phil9624,So I just took a moment to check out the Yammy you mentioned. All looked good except one review about 4K being a problem. I will look into that issue more. JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system phil9624LOL,I'm using a Sony - DE445, a pair of Klispch RF3ii's and subwoofer from Cambridge Audio. As I said before, I'm at least 15 yyears out of date on all this. So far we bought the TV and the 4K Blueray this year. I'll check out the Yamm... | |
| The big DAC decision LOL,Maybe if they were really high end.JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system Hi phil9624,This system is going to be mostly for video. My TV is less than a year old so I can stream most apps already. (Don't need the Roku anymore). So the Sony X800 will handle most all of my other video needs, I think. The house I'm in for... | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system audiotroy,All very good ideas, and I do have a streaming question. If a receiver is hooked up to my lan, can I use a NAS to stream my own collection ? And is there a device to make a 15 year old receiver wireless? IE, something to plug into a aux... | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system audiotroy,You're correct about the 2 sides, but for this, money, sound and a few bells and whistles are king. Btw, what is up scaling video and is it anything to make a priority? Thanks.JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system esthlos13,This isn’t going to be a job for a processor and amp. By the time I buy both, I’ll be over my limit and won’t have any left for interconnects. LOL But really, for now I’m just going receivers.Thanks.JD | |
| So I'm looking to rebuild the home theater system alkaloid, Thanks, I’ll check out Anthem. Now I ‘m in an odd sized area, (12X30) with both ends unusable, but hope to move into a 20X20 area soon.JD | |
| Has anyone tried the Audience Forte F3 power cord? Thanks taww,I’ll be looking forward to your review.JD |
