    Russound speaker selector and clipping issue with Yamaha RX-V1400

    Seeking collective wisdom here. . . I am trying to run 3 sets of speakers (living room, kitchen, and deck) from this A/V unit which I bought new some years ago and just had repaired because it grew tired of shutting down under load. I purchased a Russound SDB 6.1 speaker selector with separate...

    Pioneer Elite VXS-23TXH Setup Help

    Scott: Please let me know how you made out and how you did it. I am troubled with the same issue(s) and the manual for my VSX-94TXH might as well be in Russian. I hate to think that I can't figure this out but it doesn't look good for this hero. Speakers all plugged in. No sound from Subwoofer...

    Yamaha will not provide music throughout. Time for a switcherooo?

    Greetings Forum members: Time for more silly questions. . . Yamaha HTR 5450 in living room, running through a Russound 6 channel speaker selector (the Russound piece is probably a better piece of equipment than the Yamaha) is struggling to power 3 zones (2 older Polk bookshelf speakers in the...

    Yamaha RXV-1400

    So it's been a few years since I've had this Receiver and it continues to work well for me but I have some basic questions to help my address a few of my several issues. When I first got this unit to set up my first surround sound home theater, this was the center piece. With this in mind, I...

    Yamaha HTR-5460 with a separate EQ?

    Help. I upgraded my family room power unit from the Yamaha RX-340 to a Yamaha HTR-5460 A/V unit. This is a good thing however, I"m having difficulty integrating components. I listen to a lot of live music, not all of which is professionally produced. As a result, I've relied upon an aging...

    Advent ASW 1200 Subwoofer. Trash or treasure?

    Thanks for the reply Tom! :D Yes and Wow!!! I feel as if I've been living in darkness without a subwoofer. The clarity between the other speakers seems clearer and more crisp. The simplest thing, like a door slamming has meaning and presence. Thank you so much for the idiots play by play it...

    Advent ASW 1200 Subwoofer. Trash or treasure?

    I just picked one of these units up at a great price and plugged it into my Yamaha RX-V1400 with an RCA line, giddy with the anticipation of hearing thunderous bass. Alas, I have not heard a single sound being emitted from this monster. Has anybody else out there had any experience, good or...

    Please help with finding a new receiver

    I have the Yamaha 1400 and it does sound awesome, very crisp and clear. I listen to a lot of live music and the sound is spectacular at all levels. The only drawback I've encountered is the sheer number of features that I don't quite yet understand (have had the receiver since Jan.) and the...

    Yamaha RX-V1400, too much stuff? Help!

    Help! I'm embarrassed to admit that I am totally overwhelmed and intimidated by my A/V receiver. The instruction manual is not terribly informative and I can't even teach the "learning" remote how to recognize the other components. I'm driving a NHT center channel speaker, Polk Monitor-10's up...
