speaking of the show, i've been fortunate to have the opportunity to see the live show in san francisco orpheum theater last saturday. suffice to say the performance was just magnificent. very dramatic and powerful. brad little and christine daaé did a fabulous job.
enjoy your purchase. it really is a nice feeling to be able to own a flagship, even if it becomes obsolete. myself, i've started with the dsp-a1000 back in the days, and consequently hopped over to the dsp-2070, dsp-a1, and finally the rx-v1. i'm still waiting, hoping to see the rx-z1 within my...
ahh... the play from left field is a good one. yes, it irritates me most when someone requests for opinion on a certain list of items, and then someone chimes in and deviates from the list with another item without any appropriate or significant info to back up that recommendation.
phil, what yamaha has told you is interesting news. from the manual, the split sub output is supposed to be a stereo feed, with bass derived from the main L and R channels separately.
phil, i'm not familiar with the setup configuration of your powered towers. but generally speaking, if you want to send only bass output into them, i think the current setup is fine. personally, i would rather use the stereo split outputs to take advantage of directional bass, and set my lfe...
keith, if you are using the double-pin couplers from yamaha, i've heard they are not shielded. some users have found that they produce inferior sound compared with using good rca connectors. personally, i have not done any comparison with either my dsp-a1 or rx-v1, but i did opt for the rca...
yamaha can service this if you bring it in. but otherwise, yeah, you can insert and leave an rca cable in the jacks as opposed to poking the jacks with it every now and then.
leo's right. let's not take past examples of these companies complaints and replicate them into this bowl of soup. i've read more complaints from certain brands and fewer from others, so generalizing the entire bunch may not be very accurate. i, too, have just gotten the yamaha rx-v1 into the...
greetings, i have just acquired a champaign-colored rx-v1 for $700 (hehe), but the thing was missing a remote. i've looked at yamaha's site and the RAV220 remote is listed for a shocking $150. also looked in ebay and found one listing for this item, but description says it's for model DSPAX1...

sorry to hear about everyone's problems.
geez! all this talk about this reciever has gotten me all jazzed up. i'm currently in the market for a reciever to replace my yamaha dsp-a1 (which is going into the bedroom) and i got so tempted on this discussion that i went to fry's the next night to check it out; couldn't buy anything i can't...
