    Crazy amount of equipment, how do i set it up?

    Yeah, I really wanted to know what would be the most optimal and best set up for the equipment at hand. I know I don't have to use all of the speakers, I currently have a 7.1 set up, with only the LSi series speakers connected to the Pio Elite Receiver. The Denon 4806 receiver actually has 9.1...

    Polk Audio LSi series speakers w/ Pio Elite 82TXS

    Thanks for the replies, Yeah, it is fortunate for my receiver that i don't play it too loud, although I have had them pretty loud on occasion, such as the middle of the day, where I can be a little loud. -How about sound quality wise? Would a decent external amp 'sound better' than the Pio...

    Does the PS3 output in only 5.1 surround?

    I have my PS3 connected to my Pio Elite 82TXS receiver via HDMI cable, I have the PS3 set up to output in Linear PCM, as so is my Pio Elite when I watch Blu-Ray movies, this is I believe the correct settings to get the PS3 to decode the new HD audio formats and send it to the Pio Elite to my...

    Polk Audio LSi series speakers w/ Pio Elite 82TXS

    I know the Polks are rated at 4ohms, and my Pio Elite outputs at 8ohms, but do you think there is ample power for these speakers from the Pio? or am I missing out by not having an external amp? LSi15's fronts, LSiC center, FXI-A4 surrounds. Anybody have this combo? just curious as to what...

    Bass shaker humming problem.

    Bass shaker humming problem.

    I have 2 pairs of bass shakers connected to an old JVC 5.1 amp. I have the sub cable split from my Pio Elite going into the JVC split again into the DVD input. The problem is, is that there is a noticable hum from the speakers when these are connected, but when I remove the split from the back...

    FINALLY! TrueHD, DTS-HD Master AVR Receivers!

    Personally, I think that Onkyo is not NEARLY as good as people claim, I just got rid of my Onkyo yesterday in place of a Pio Elite 82TSX. Evethough there is no reason to wait for the 1.3 recievers, so as long as you have a level 5 or above reveiver now, I would wait and pass up the Onkyo line...

    Pioneer Elite VSX-82TXS or Yamaha RX-V2700

    That is a tuff choice... I purchased the Pio Elite 82TXS yesterday, but was also considering the Yamaha. The two receivers pretty much have all of the same features, except that the Pio Elite is THX certified. The Pio uses the Faroudja video scaler, I didn't think the Yami did, but not...

    bi-wiring?

    The speakers do have "jumpers" which I have removed just because the manual states to. So, you think that bi bi-wiring, you put an "extra" strain on the amp? I have a brand new Pio Elite TSX 82, rated at 130w/channel, RMS. I have run two sets of speaker wires to each speaker, but they are...

    bi-wiring?

    So how do you exactly bi-wire? Just purchased Polk LSi15's for front, LSiC for center, and two pairs of the Fxi3's for the surrounds. The LSi15's and LSiC all have two sets of speaker terminals on them. The manual states that this is for bi-wiring, I have never heard of this before, but...
