Joe, I've had my Studio 100s (v2) for just about 2 years now. They are powered by my Yamaha RX-V3200 receiver. I am very happy with them. Just don't expect much bass response out of them when you first get them. Mine took a few months to break-in. The other day, just for fun, I turned off my...

Eddy, The YPAO sounds cool. My receiver is 2 generations old and does not have that feature. I tweaked mine manually with an SPL meter and it was really easy to do.

Daman, As Ted said very well, you are not alone in questioning your purchase. I have a Yamaha RX-V3200 and have been looking closely at the new RX-V2400. But then I said to myself "why do I need to upgrade?" I am very happy with my Yammie and until there is some major change (new surround...

Eddy, I have a Paradigm/Yamaha setup. Specifically: Paradigm Studio 100s Studio CC PW2200 sub ADP Studio surrounds with Yamaha RX-V3200 Absolutely love the setup. I can literally shake pictures off the walls if I choose to do so! One thing I noticed is that the Studio 100s...

I too am using an RX-V3200 receiver. This unit is very well built (and heavy). For speakers, I am using Paradigm Studio 100s. In normal 2 channel stereo, the sound is very good, but I have always read how great my speakers are in the bass category. I found that there wasn't enough bass for my...

Jeff, I was in my local Yamaha dealer a couple of weekends ago and they had the RX-V2200 and RX-V2300 side by side (not hooked up). I peered into the top grill to see inside and the internal design has changed somewhat. The most obvious change was the heat sink. The 2200 has a large aluminum...

Reginald, Where did you mount your fan exactly? Did you mount it at the bottom blowing up or top down? My cabinet has solid non-vented shelves. Great idea!

I just noticed that Yamaha's own line of speakers are 6 ohm. So I would think that their receivers are then capable of driving 6 and maybe 4 ohms OK. I guess I am just getting caught up in some of the professional reviews I have read regarding the Studio 100s. Some articles (like Stereophile)...

Thanks for your replies everyone... Martin, I can see your point about bass boost and flat response. Again tonight, I turned off my sub and just listened to the 100s on their own. When I cranked up my receiver to about -25 on the volume scale, I was getting about 89 dB on my SPL meter. I...

Wow, maybe I should go and listen to such a setup. One thing I notice with my current setup. Last night I unplugged my sub and ran just the Studio 100s and listened to a few CDs. A lot of people rave about the 100s bass ability. I however noticed that the bass was not all that powerful. Would...

Yogi, just so I am clear, your mains are getting a full range signal including LFE and your sub is getting a signal below 80 Hz from the receiver and you are then using the subs crossover to filter out anything above 50 Hz? Question...does your sub get a signal when you listen to just 2 channel...

Hi everyone, Just wondering, I have read many posts about the Yamaha and Paradigm combo not being that good. My 3200 actually sound very good with the Studio 100s. I noticed though that many people have said that you need an seperate amp with output greater than 200 wpc in order to drive...

Thanks for the info Martin. Actually, I am quite happy with the sound quality, but I have not heard the 100s with external amplification. I was thinking of upgrading to the 3200, but it really doesn't offer that much more power. Also, it is more than double the price I paid for the 2200. My...

Anyone out there using the rx-v2200 Yamaha with Paradigm Studio 100s? If so, how do you like the combination? Also, how warm does the reciever get at regular listening levels? I believe the 100s are rated at 91 dB sensitive, so the Yamaha 2200 should be fine right?
