I'd love to upgrade my old HK7200 to something that actually has HDMI inputs let alone one that can handle the latest and greatest Dolby Atmos. This would also give me the perfect excuse to add some speakers to my setup. ;)
I might just do that. ;) If I do end up going the route of an in-wall speaker in the pillars, I will probably end up having to play around with insulation as well. Due to the rather unique nature of this set up I haven't found anything definitive on whether or not it may end up sounding boomy...
Thanks for your response, Al. With the exception of the M0's, Axiom's in wall/on-wall solutions are out of my price range of $325. I plan on auditioning the Ascend Acoustic's HTM-200s within the next week. Admittedly, I'm still curious about the in-pillar option. :)
We had flat speaker wire laid out under our wooden flooring - I was going to remove the baseboard and run the speaker wire through the inside of the pillar. To be honest, I've never even heard what "good" in wall speakers sound like. The only place I ever hear them is at a mall or business. The...
I will definitely be considering those, but my wife would really prefer us not having any speakers hanging off the walls. With that being said, I love the AA sound and company so I may push for them if I fall in love with their smaller speakers.In the mean time I'd really like to get some input...
Just looking for some opinions and suggestions with the purchase of 2 in-wall speakers for surrounds. I'm currently using a good ol' HK AVR 7200 with Ascend Acoustic Sierra 1 speakers for my LCR channels. Our living room has us rather limited in our placement of surround speakers. For the time...

congrats! I knew i shouldn't have ventured over here! I didn't even hear about this upgrade until a few minutes ago when I went over to their website to see what's new. Nearly twice the output?! Seriously? Okay... damn it...i can't take this anymore. I've been losing sleep over trying to...
Thanks for your reply... right around the same time you posted this I was able to fix the receiver. It seems unfortunate that this is such a common problem with this model. At the same time, I have never been disatisfied with it's quality, and this was less than a "serious problem." Here are...
Hey Everyone, Back in March of 04' I purchased a Harman/Kardon AVR 7200. The members of this forum were so helpful and so informative that my purchase was based almost solely on the help I received here. I could not have been happier with my purchase and the 7200 was perfect for my wants and...
It’s amazing how much more you learn about HT technology when you are in the market to make an upgrade or a large purchase. I’ve been holding out on the purchase of a new television to ensure I would have a 1080p input. To be honest, I’m relatively torn at this point between one of the new Sony...
wow...okay... I've never actually visited that forum before, but it's a tad crazy. There are some very knowledgeable people there, but I find myself annoyed with the presence of trolls galore. Originally I had my heart set on the 55" unit, but since I will be wanting the XBR model, it seems...
You are describing the television I've been dreaming of. Can you reference the site or your source for these potential changes to the SXRD units? Thanks!
I hate responding to my own response on a thread, but I finally got a chance to check out the Sony SXRD in person instead of just what I've read online and... what a beautiful picture it was! I was so close to just biting the bullet and going for it... but no... I must wait for the 1080p input...
Bookmark! I'm very tempted by Sony's SXRD units, but I really want to wait for that 1080p input to better "future-proof" my investment. It would also be nice if those speakers were detachable. I'm hoping for a set like this by the end of the year. -Johnal P.S. Nils is my hero.
I've had my beautiful PC-Ultra for a relatively short period of time and my need/greed to have even more power at my disposal is slowly getting the better of me. I was wondering what most people here would prefer to do if they had an option. Own 2 PC-Ultras or 1 PB12-Ultra/2? No...i can't...
I am curious about this as well. I currently use the AVR 7200 but I am familiar with the "delay" of sound production which I was assured was actually normal for some HK receivers. The price you mentioned for a DPR2005 is pretty good. I beleive costco.com is selling it for around that price and...
Well i live in Costa Mesa which is in Orange County CA. I don't think i really have to worry about lightning around here but black outs and brown outs are far more common. I'll check out the "Tweaks" area as you suggested. Thanks!
So I've been doing as much reading as I can on finding a decent battery backup and after seeing what can happen from mere power outages I want some serious protection. I'm using the hk7200 with a TiVo, DVD Player, my computer and a Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW LCD monitor & an SVS PC-Ultra Sub. I...
