Probably bad choice of words.What i meant was video processing,the marantz except 480i to 408p wont do anything so 1080i/1080p or whatever is passed w/o any degradation.Realized i said processing should of been more specific and said video processing.There is also a good write up on hometheater...
I used to have the Rotel rsx1056,had some minor issues but sound was good.I upgraded to Marantz sr8002 in my opinion blew away the Rotel(which i liked).The Marantz sr8002 has 4 hdmi's and 2 out(Only 1 at a time).Musically it's fantastic as i have had other marantz recievers(still have 2).This...
I just replace a rotel rsx1056 with a marantz sr8002.Finally connected the marantz today.It's in the early stages but i will tell you that there is no compromise between the rotel and the marantz for SQ.That includes 2 channel.I can only assume the marantz will get better since its early.
FWIW,i disconnected my rsx1056 the other day and recieved my marantz sr8002 yesterday.Havent been able to set it up yet.The marantz i think would be a great option especially if SQ is also important to you.Additionally i also had marantz prior to the rotel and i dont think you'll go wrong with...
Little bit of dilemna here.Rotel is way behind and nothing is coming in the future.Even the rsx1058 is way overpriced for what you get or dont get.I have an opportunity to get either a 7002 or 8002 for a significant price.7002 for 980. the 8002 for 1,400.So i may be selling my rotel RSX1056.I...
i may have asked before but would really like to get some opinions to get me over the fence.I have an opportunity to get either a 7002 or 8002 for a significant price.7002 for 980. the 8002 for 1,400.So i may be selling my rotel.I have a tosh hd player that is connected via dig. because analogs...
Love the ones i have now.Complete system audio setup.Went from def.tech to B&W then to system audio.Not well known as i can tell,but heard them then fell in love.
I'm going to move my denon 2200 to another room so i'm going to need another sacd/dvda universal player for the main room.I will have to go used so i am inquiring as to either the 2900 or 3910.Which would be the best option audio wise.I presently have an HD player that i used for video.I would...
thanks for the reply.Anyhow i think i screwed up.I just purchased a sunfire 300x2 amp for a good price.Always heard the are cool runnig but this amp may be overkill for me.Probably going to have to turn around and sell it as soon as i get it.
I'm planning on getting a low profile cool running amp,hopefully after the weekend.I've come down to three choices the ps audio trio a100,bel canto s300 or the rotel rb1072.These amps i'm assuming can be placed where i need to have them which is behind the double doors of my tv stand.1 of the...
My rec. allows me to set mains,center,surrounds individually from 40-200(increments of 10).If i leave mains to 80 i assume the sub to 80 would also be right.The surrounds to 100-120 has me a little confused.Should'nt they also be at 80.
I have a rotel rsx1056 w/System Audio speakers,My mains are 4-8ohm 90db freg.resp. 40-40,000hz,center is 4-8ohm 90db 43-40,000hz,the surrounds are 8ohm 88db 50-35,000hz.I'm also using a martin logan grotto.Right now i have all speakers to small and at 80 for each individual speaker via my rec...
can anyone give me some info and insight on the red dragon amp1.All i really know is it's icepower.I know they are small and perfect size wise for me as well as cool running.I would be using them if i do get them with rotel rsx1056 and system audio sa1750's.I dont know enough to make an honest...
thats how i have the grotto hooked up.I went ahead and set all my speakers to 80.I'll see how it sounds or if i can even tell a difference.thanks again
Thanks i read the thread.If you dont mine could you critique how i'm setup.In my receiver i have the mains small and 60,center is small and 60,my surrounds are small and 80 and my sub is also at 60.There is also a setting for dolby,dts,stereo and music.Everything is set to small except in stereo...
I just replace my B&W603s3/lcr600 with system audio sa1750 and sa720 center.Originally had the crossover in my receiver for the B&W at 60 for the 603s3 and lcr600.The specs for the 603's were freg resp. 44hz-22khz,90 db and 8ohm,crossover freg. 150hz,4khz.The system audio specs are shown as...
Interesting.I have 603s3's which i'm hoping to upgrade in 4-6 mos.Planning on getting used 804's and htm1 center.If your ready to do an upgrade and are more inclined toward the 800's why not try looking at used mkt.The 700 and cm series are ok but but going from 600 series to 800 would be a...
I would get the lcr600 it would be a better match.I have the 603s3's with a rotel rsx1056 and the lcr600.Great match.congrats on your setup by the way.
The studio monitors would probably be ideal since they can be placed in an entertainment center/wall unit.But if the small speakers are only for surround duty then any of the procinema's like the 80's/60's would probably do.I never heard the studio monitors but i read they are very good...
I had the procinema 100's for 4 years in a 19 x 21 room and they did fantastic for movies as well as HT.I had them with a 200tl def.tech sub.and the c1 center(not the 100 center).I also still have the take 5 in another room and they are no match for the def.tech's.You can go with the 100's or...
Which reciever do you have?This would probably help to determine which connections would work for you.As a side note i have the smaller version of your tv,i have the kdl-40s2000.I route everything thru my reciever that utilizes component.HDdvr/Dvd.Have toshiba a1 via HDMI direct to tv.Cant help...
In the mid 70's i had a Sansui which i purchased while in the military.Ended later with tuner/integrated/egualizer seperates,then eventually marantz sr7000 to present rotel rsx1056.
