I am seeing a yamaha rx-v1300 on craigslist, this doesn't have hdmi and currently I have an xbox, blu ray, dish etc running hdmi to my tv and I really like the convenience of this.
OK, sorry I wasn't understanding what you were saying at first. I understand these amps will greatly improve the sound quality but if I did have them pushing the fronts and rears through a 667 amp will the reproduction of sound still be a surround sound type reproduction? Or will it simply be a...
He is showing pics with boxes for the carver and SAE, they look in very good condition. He seems motivated to sell so I think I'll throw an offer for $100 and go from there. I'm sure just hooking it up to my fronts would make a huge difference in listening to music. Thanks for your help.
That's what I thought as far as my 5.1 surround set up. So I could just hook up the Carver for my 2 mains for now? I can get all 3 components for under 200.
I have a chance to pick up a Carver pm 1.5, SAE a202 and a Kenwood tuner. I currently have a fairly new Yamaha 367 surround receiver that runs my 5.1 home theater set up with Polk monitor 50 fronts, Polk 20 center and Streem dipolar rears with a BIC 12 inch powered sub. Is the Carver, SAE and...
Does anyone have these or have heard them? I know they aren't top of the line speakers and I have seen a few reviews where they were called junk and a couple where people liked them. They aren't for my main set up but looking for something for the kids tv room that they can have some fun with...
Don't all of those brands including Yamaha have entry level and high end models? What should I look for specifically that will give me better performance from my set up?
Again thanks for the feedback. So without starting over from scratch would you say my best bang for the buck would be to upgrade my receiver at some point in the near future? If so what would you recommend to work with my speaker set up?
Thanks for the feedback, and no I don't have my stereo near max as I'm not looking to make it louder. I thought more power might enhance the sound coming out of the speakers. I see a lot of forums where people weren't pushing enough power to their speakers and they just weren't getting the true...
I set up my 5.1 system a little over a year ago. I'm fairly new to home theater and think it sounds OK but I am wondering if I am maximizing what I have? I have a Yamaha RXV 367 receiver, Polk monitor 50's for my fronts, Polk cs10 center, a BIC v-1220 powered sub and Streem SR-490 for surrounds...
