Hi! Is it safe to do this?: I already have a two channel amp powering my Front speakers. I would like to free up my pre/pro/receiver to rear channel duty only by adding my lying around integrated amp to power my center channel. Here is my plan: I'll split the center pre-out of my receiver with...

I hate being pushy but please, share your thoughts on this.

Hi! The percentage of my listening time has changed from 70%movie, 30%music, to 90% music,10% movie. I just purchase a pair of B&W 685 (coming) and I want to know which way to go as regards to powering these speakers: a) Buy a decent integrated amp to power this speakers or buy a stereo power...

with movies I go via S/PDIF.

Thanks Ed. I was actually comparing the EXT. IN vs. The DIRECT aux, dvd/cd In. When ever I listen to two channel music (Redbook CDs), I utilize the analog front L/R out of my DVD-AUDIO player to EXT. IN FL/FR which I find cleaner or maybe just a placebo effect because I am suspecting that the...

Hi! I'm just wondering which do you think has the purer analog path in my DENON AVR 1907: the "ext. in" or the usual "AUX, DVD, etc. IN"? And which you think has the better DAC, my DENON DVD 1940CI or my 1907?

Thanks Sptrout. I tried what you suggested. On direct mode, the subwoofer is still working, however, when I choose "EXT. IN" (multi channel analog inputs) and played 2 channel materials, the SW stops and only my L/R are working. So I assume when using EXT. IN, all outputs are full range. Does...

Hi! I have satellite speakers (non full range) connected directly to my DENON AVR 1907. I usually listen to "DIRECT" mode when playing music because I really like its sound as compared to stereo mode. My question is, am I running my L/R (without my knowledge) in full range whenever I choose...

I'd contacted Denon USA...but they wouldn't entertain me because I'm calling from Jordan. Can you believe that? I could've lied..

Thanks Mike. I tried what you suggested but still I can't get the front panel display to light up. I am now convince that this is a faulty front panel display. Fortunately, I still can rely on the OSD. By the way, he bought the receiver from Dubai and it is rated 220V 50hz. I don't think the...

Hi Lito..any update?

My friend's Denon AVR 1907 just arrived today. And having one myself (same model) he ask for my help to setup his system. The problem is: the front panel display is not lighting up. I tried the "dimmer" button but to no avail. Everything is working fine except the front panel display. What do...

Please read product description below: "Technologies mature. Tastes change. Audio evolves. However, qualitatively speaking, some of the best speakers to ever hit the market did so years ago. That's why Altec Lansing is re-issuing some real classics: the 510 S speakers famous for their...

I'm asking about the 5.1 analog inputs because my dvd player is hooked up to my receiver this way for my SACDs/DVD-Audios (along with digital coax). When I'm playing two channel sources, I select the "Ext. In" and I get stereo + sub which I assume bypasses the digital circuitry of my receiver...

Thanks Jeff..I am referring to 2 channel music only not movies.

I know our ears and our preferences will always be the best judge so please don't give me the whatever-sounds-great-to-you phrase because really, I always prefer and listen to my music (not with movies) with always the tone defeat off so there's always some sort of digital processing related to...

yes, i do have an analog Radio Shack SPL meter..I already set the delay and level of each speakers at 75dB..back to my original question, can this compensate for the unorthodox placement (center being placed forward at about 20 cm) by setting the delay and speaker level from my receiver? What...

i'm so sorry I meant 20 cm.

btw, if you opt for the SVS and you've mentioned that there is a local distributor there, go for it! You will incur the same cost (shipping, customs duty, tax) anyway if you choose to have them shipped to Cebu, Philippines.

Hi Lito! Kabayan..It's good to hear somebody from my own country who is also into this hobby and a member of this great forum. I'm from Pampanga..I currently have Denon AVR 1907 and Def Tech Procinema 800. I'm pretty satisfied with it.With your current budget, you'll surely be able to come up...

Hi! I have no way of having my L/C/R aligned in a straight line. My center channel is about 20 meters forward in relation to the left and right front speakers. In this regard, I would like to know if I can compensate the placement with time delay and speaker level from my receiver? What would I...

Hi guys! I have a newly purchased denon dvd 1940CI connected to a denon avr 1306 via ext. in for my dvd-a and sacd pleaseures. I noticed that I can individually adjust the volume level of each speakers while on "Ext. in" mode. Would like to know is this normal or still bass management of my...

I sold my Denon AVR-1306 and planning to replace it with a new receiver. Which receiver can you recommend under $350. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Rick.

thanks for your replies..will i be using the same setting on my SPL meter? ( "C"weighing "slow")

Hi! What should be the volume level of the subwoofer when calibrating with an SPL meter? Should it be the same as the rest of the speakers?

I guess nobody has ever heard of this subwoofer.

Hey Guys, have you heared of this subwoofer before? APart-Audio - Quality Audio Solutions - SUBA165. Its retails for US$310.00 I'm here in Amman Jordan and HT is not an "in" thing here so there are limited to no distributors of major brands of HT equipment. This is the only subwoofer available...

thanks..there are Radio Shacks in most of the malls here in Dubai, Im sure they have this device. I would definitely get one and start calibrating my system. I'll keep you posted guys as to the result.wish me luck! btw, my receiver is a inexpensive Denon receiver (avr 1306), ever heard of this...

Thanks! When you say calibration, are you referring to the delay and sound level of each channel? And does it make a BIG difference as regards to my Home Theater experience, wether a system is properly calibrated or not? Please forgive my ignorance. Regards, Rick
