    Yamaha BD-A1010 SACD lack of bass

    You know i was thinking about doing that the only thing is vol control unless the sub just stays at max vol I just wonder maybe the output from the sacd player analogs is weak i noticed that the trim on the yamaha goes to 0dB however my old pioneer actually went to positives -10 to +10 dB or...

    Yamaha BD-A1010 SACD lack of bass

    I purchased the BD-A1010 bluray player for my system because I wanted a unit that could produce outstanding video and audio specifically for SACDs and DVD-audio The player plays SACDs just fine they sound great in fact except I have to turn my subwoofer almost all the way up to get any bass...

    Analog vs Digital

    I think it's misleading to say dB is to measure sound volume. It is a gain meaurment and can be applied to many things, sound is just one. Video signal splitters and amplifiers measure their respective loss and gain in dB. Does the actual coax cable need to be RG6 to be digital compatable...

    Laptop Bluray and DTS

    Thanks again, also I was going to ask if you saw a huge difference with the TMT3 software levels (standard, Gold, Platinum) it looks like they all support DTS.

    Laptop Bluray and DTS

    Thanks you may have easily been able to clear up something I've been struggling with for a few days. So if I go with TMT3 and want to watch a bluray but connect to the surround sound via optical this should reduce to DTS-core?

    Vocals coming threw my sub

    Oh I see. I'm not as familiar with that equipment but if the pyle receiver doesn't allow control of the crossover frequency then I guess you would need some sort of external crossover. I'm surprised the receiver wouldn't have the low pass built in somewhere. Someone might know more about this...

    This is driving me crazy! Please help - Receiver Problem?

    Maybe it doesn't do it after a while because the TV is warmed up. You could get it working then try to turn off the receiver for a little while but keep the TV on as a quick test. Or vice versa...get it working and turn the TV off for a while but keep the receiver on. Only reason I'm thinking...

    Determining changes in Parameter Settings for Yamaha RX-V800?

    I don't really think the DSP characteristics are intended to be technical room correction settings. They're mostly to be used if you want to re-create a specific sound theater or environment and are therefore set according to people's personal preferences. I know you can go crazy playing and...

    Confusion about DSP with Yamaha RX-V800...

    Yes... if you are receiving a 5.1 signal any DSP setting you apply to the signal is still going to be in 5.1 it is just going to change the certain settings (delay time, reverb, ect.) to replicate whatever environment you select. The only time you would lose your 5.1 is if you went in to 2 ch...
