    The new Onkyo mid range receivers...

    This must have been posted before. You can look up the html specs but I guess the truly curious will download the 2002 catalog and the manuals (say what you will about Onkyo, but the sure do provide plenty of info to make the right purchase decision). http://www.onkyousa.com/download.cfm...

    What is the rj45 port on the Rotel 1066 used for?

    I guess the rs232 is for firmware. What about the 45? T.

    Running 'small' is a crutch for weak amplification...

    It has been brought to my attention by people who run floorstanders that upgrading from receivers to pre/pro allows one to realistically move from 'small' to 'large' settings for a more seamless spread of bass. Is this true? I've never much liked the 80-90-100Hz cuttoffs on floorstanders...

    Damn Yamaha and their 90Hz cutoff! (the RX-V1200)

    I got a good cash price on a RX-V1200 and intend to use it as a preamp to my Parasound 1206 THX six channel. Perhaps biwire as 80w to treble and 150w to mains. But the damn thing has a fixed 90Hz cutoff. So that's over pretty quick for my big floorstanders. Dammit back to Rotel and Outlaw...

    Rotel 2002 Lineup - specifically the RSP-1066 surround preamp

    I ripped this off someone on the AVSForum. Rotel have not updated their online content (which reflects the 2001 series) however they do have a new 2002 PDF catalog with some *lovely* new products. http://www.rotel.com/html/rotel-catalog-2002.htm Looks like they leaked the new catalog...

    Does the Outlaw 950 digitise analog inputs?

    I know it has analog multichannel bypass and I expect some of the analog inputs (ie. like VCR) to be digitised so the Crystal processor can do dpl2 however is there a pure analog bypass for phono or CD or SACD? I was looking at the Rotel RSP-976 and all two channel inputs were digitised while...

    U571 Incorrect Bass Levels

    This was just pointed out to me in another thread and it's something I've known for quite a while. U571 clearly has incorrect LFE boost. The first time I *experienced* it on my setup, I knew that something was definitely wrong. There's no way that any studio would do this deliberately. So they...
