I'm still rocking my B&K AVR 507 that I bought in 2003. Needless to say, times have changed. Sure, you early adopters have 10 channel Atmos. (I had to look that up.) But do you have PRO LOGIC II? I really want this. Please give it to me. I'm willing to put speakers on my ceiling without telling...
Hello again- I have posted my LCR600 on this forum already, but seeing as how it seems many are wary to buy a speaker with a cosmetic flaw (small crack on underside of bezel) I am now considering selling the replacement I recently bought, the HTM2. This is the Nautilus center channel and is...
Hello everyone- I have a 1 year old black B&W LCR600 center channel speaker that I am considering selling...it is the bigger of their two LCR's and an excellent performer, but I have the opportunity to pick up Nautilus speakers so I am offering this one up--there is one flaw, a small vertical...
Hello all...I have owned the Parasound AVC1800/HCA855 combo for the last 8 months and, due to an amazing opportunity to acquire new B&K equipment for cheap, I am offering them for sale together or seperate...they were my first seperate pieces and as so will always have a special place in my, er...
I have the HCA-855 Parasound amp, listed at 85X5, which I would be willing to part with...only 8 months old and in mint condition, with all original materials. I also have the matching preamp AVC-1800 and I would prefer to sell both together, but write me back if you are interested in only the...
I have two black Nautilus 805 Loudspeakers for sale--they are four months old and in flawless condition (just recently broken in properly!) The beautiful matching B&W stands are included (retail value $2600 total). If anyone is looking for premium bookshelf speakers, please contact me as I have...
Would anyone have any interest in a factory sealed Mitsubishi DD-8020 Progressive Scan DVD-A Player? I ordered this model from Mitsubishi's Rewards Website and have no real use for it, as I already own a similar model. Plays DVD-Audio discs with Progressive Scan Video (3:2 pulldown). The unit is...
Would anyone have interest in a 2-week old RXV-2200 Receiver? I know I'm crazy, as I just bought it and am quite satisfied with it, but today a placed an order for a Parasound amp to pre-out to and am kicking around the idea of buying the matching pre-amp. I got a good deal on the 2200 and...
Alex, thanks for some great posts on these fantastic speakers. I work at a specialty shop and we just received these last week--everyone has been gawking at them ever since!! Some very jaded salesmen have been reduced to smitten lovebirds, retreating to our listening room just for some time...
I am a Home Theater designer, and one of my customers is looking to upgrade from the bookshelf B&W Nautilus 805 speakers I sold him four months ago to the floorstanding 804's. The guy is a surgeon and a complete audiophile, and he has babied the speakers (true mint condition with all boxes and...
There is a preposterous trend developing on the forum, and that is that somehow the Yamaha RXV-1200 objectively sounds BETTER than the 2200. Even more silly is the notion that it could sound better only for two channel audio. These receivers are practically IDENTICAL. Made in the same...
Doug, do the 3200. I have the 2200 and also love it, but I work for a Yamaha dealer and have learned much about the 3200 in the last few weeks. It looks to be the best sub-2K receiver around. RS-232 software upgradability is huge, and hasn't been mentioned. The amp section is a large...
I bought the 2200 two weeks ago and am still breaking it in. From what I have heard so far, it is a fantastic receiver with many attributes. It is very clean and transparent in this price class, especially with revealing speakers (I am using B&W 600 series 3). I had JBL Studio series before...
thanks again--I decided today on my original setup (603-601-LCR600-ASW600), mainly because of the importance of the towers in my stereo listening. With black cabinets the aluminum woofer is mighty sexy as well (shallow, I know). This has been a most helpful thread--I will report back in two...
Chuck-
I work at a home theater shop, so I have ordered it directly from Yamaha. I just got word that it will be next month before it arrives(!), and seeing as how I have already sold my Denon, I think I will upgrade to either the 1200 or 2200 (both available now). I am purchasing an entire...
Thanks to everyone for your posts--my thinking is that the 603's would be better performers for two-channel stereo, of which I listen to quite frequently. So I guess I really am wondering how well LCR speakers perform in a stereo configuration (or, stated differently, how much better are the...
Today was a very good day--I was able to unload my JBL Studio Series package (310 fronts, 38 rears, S-center) in order to buy the B&W 600 Series 3's that I have been coveting ever since my store got them 2 months ago. My question is this: which set should I buy? Conventional wisdom told me to...
Hey Chuck, I have a 630 on order and was wondering if you could post your first impressions of it--I was thinking of buying a 5-ch amp to feed the signal to (Parasound 855?), but if the internal amps are much better than the older Yammies, I might hold off. I am currently using a Denon 1801...
I have the legendary Panasonic RP-91 Progressive Scan DVD player and I am considering selling. Perfect condition--I bought about 6 months ago and want to upgrade to a changer available to me through my work. I have upgraded the firmware and the performance of the player is killer. Will sell...
I work at a home theater shop, and we recently added B&K to our lineup. First impressions are very impressive--solid build, power to spare, warm clean sound. Made in the USA by hand...highly recommended. Other lines include Bryston, Sunfire, Marantz and Yamaha, and I put the B&K above all but...
