    7.1 receiver not working???

    yes when I ran the mic setup the surround back was configured. It is fine, for example with 6.1 movies my surround backs operate also with 7ch stereo (which is the same signal on all 7 speakers) also works. Its just for 5.1 movies where the surround backs dont run but i want them to sound with...

    7.1 receiver not working???

    Hey guys, I have an rxv -659 and i am having a problem with the output. when i have a 5.1 source the surround back speakers are not on. I understand this because its not 6.1 or 7.1 source. But i thought the receiver would send the same signals to the surround back as well. So for example the...

    25/F needs all the help she can get!

    if you have carpet, a real neat way to hide the cables is take the wire and push it underneath the baseboard. You can do this with your hands or a screwdriver by pushing the wire under with the screwdriver. There is no harm to the cable and its basically like you have the cable in the wall!

    HDMI cables for only $2.94(amazon.com)!!!!

    these are ok, although imo the wires are a little thin. try to stick with BJC and monoprice and you get much nicer ones for around the same price.

    BenQ W10000 1080p Projector at TV Authority on Tuesday 11/7

    whats so special about this projector? you can go to sony and get their 1080p sxrd for 5000. it has a better contrast ratio, as well as almost every other spec. so why is this good again?

    Composite Cables for Component Connection?

    yeh you can use three composite connections for sure. Its a much cheaper route because most composite cables are very bad quality. Lets say you have some nicer ones like 3 digital coax cables you could use those too. neways the point is yes you can use three composite cables as long as they line...

    Are all HDMI cables created equal

    i would go with monoprice, the cables look better, amazing quality and sweet price. i have got hdmi and dvi cables from them you cant imagine how thick the cable is. really high end stuff. and also for any rca type cable they have better connectors than BJC.

    ethernet grounding???

    hey guys, i am about to get a pureav pf31 power unit and was wondering about the ethernet grounding. Does grouding it affect the connection quality and does creating these multiple connection points also degrade the ethernet signal? just wondering if i should do it or not thanks

    SXRD should I wait?

    i agree those suggested specs of viewing distances just arent right. i have a 60 inch sxrd and i have around 14 feet from it. i love the distance and going too close just strains the eyes. i dont see how people can sit soo close, there ruining their eyes IMO.

    are banana connectors dangerous?

    just wondering, for example is you have speakers with spring terminals the conducting wire is safely hidden and only the wire insulation is exposed. However when you use banana connectors, the whole connecter is conducting and common banana plugs are all metal which is exposed. So if the...

    Yamaha Presence Speakers

    well i guess ill just buy speakers for the 7.1 part. that stinks, i was looking forward to having the presence speakers, but i would rather use the amps for the surround speakers, prob will have a greater impact. thanks for the help

    Yamaha Presence Speakers

    So do you have the 659? It seems that only some yamaha models can do 7.1 + presence at the same time while others can only do one of them at a time. im just trying to confirm this with the 659 so i can go ahead and get speakers. thanks

    Yamaha Presence Speakers

    my mistake it did not say that in the manual, although it gives a slight impression. i read in a quick review that it cant run both the presence and sourround back at the same time. however, i havent got the speakers yet and i dont want to buy more than i need. Can anyone who has the 659 confirm...

    Yamaha Presence Speakers

    so let me see if i have this right. I can have either the presence speakers or the surround back, but i cant have both right? as for the a/b im using them for biwiring, so A goes to low freq, B to high freq on my speakers.

    Yamaha Presence Speakers

    Hey everyone, i have bought a yamaha rxv 659 and I was wondering what the presence speakers are? How do they improve the system, also i cant find out how many watts they output on the receiver. Does the receiver lower the output on other channels so that it can get the necessary watts to the...
