    Bi amping speakers

    How many speakers can you biamp and how would it be most effective? On the front speakers? Or surrounds, etc?

    Does anyone have an opinion on Yamaha Rxa 2030?

    I have to agree with both of you...I just bought and installed the 2030 and it is a dream come true! Especially after trying for 8+ hrs to get a denon to work for me....this unit had crisp clear video and top notch audio...I heard my surrounds fire off for the first time today. Couldn't be...

    Best Blu ray?

    Network usage and upscaling I guess. I don't care about the simplicity of the menus. I have had issues with connecting to my router with this blu ray....Everything else (Kindle, Laptop, etc) have no problem connecting. Tech support is not the greatest either.

    Best Blu ray?

    I have a Samsung BDC-6500 Blu Ray running on a Sharp Aquos Quattron tv. I am purchasing a Yamaha RX-a1030 receiver. Is there a better Blu Ray out there? I have a 1080p tv (not 3d).

    Denon 3313 vs Yamaha 1030

    Are these receivers pretty similar? I got a defective denon and am exchanging it for the Yamaha...just wondering if the sound is going to be comparable. I'm running Polk RTI 8's, CSI a6 center, FXi a6 surrounds and RTI 6 fronts...all rated at 8 ohm

    Trying to hook up a new receiver/speakers please help!

    I got the tech support to walk me through setting it up, then later that night when playing a BR disc it lost video, then came back on...I never got the video back 100%. So I called tech support again, they had me test all the hdmi connections but came to the conclusion the Denon was...

    Trying to hook up a new receiver/speakers please help!

    I will try this...I noticed last night that the ipod (connected directly to the denon through the front usb port) worked fine. But everything else was playing through the tv only...when I turned down the speakers on the Aquos, I didn't get any audio on the denon at all (tv or BD). What does DD...

    Replacement for VSX-1021

    I never hear the Blackstone surrounds at all, even after calibrating. Maybe I have the wrong surrounds too:(:(

    Replacement for VSX-1021

    I tend to disagree about it being the speakers only cause I heard them hooked up to a denon before I bought them and the sound was 100% better....so if not wattage maybe the way an individual receiver reproduces the sound? if everyone is pretty sure about the polks I'd love to hear...
