To re-enforce what Bob said, check your owner's manuals for requirements as my receiver (Elite 49TX) says to keep a MINIMUM of 8" clear above the receiver for proper ventilation. That is a killer to me for the new rack I am trying to design. I also am trying to mount electronics above floor...

I got to drop in to a B&O store in downtown Chicago last week. They sure have some fantastic looking electronic equipment. They are making several really neat wall mount - kind of flush mount - stereo systems. Saw a 50" plasma that carried the B&O name - it was basically a Panasonic for $13000...

Personally, I have some Tributaries and some Analysis Plus cables. This is a hot topic with little agreement. I think that it is worth spending a little to get reliable end connections and quality termination of the various shield wraps which is hard to do. There are many good cable...

As I understand it, the Elite 49TX and TXi receivers provide full bass management on the multichannel inputs and so can then provide the proper bass output to the sub. This probably does involve some signal conversion with possible (audible?)degradation of sound. I have read elsewhere about this...

Lord, I hope this holds true. I have been wanting a 3800 for about 3 months but all this talk of freeze ups scared me off. It seems everyone thinks this unit has the best picture available so if the new August units solve the lockup - here I come! Now, to only find one. Pete in Louisiana

A friend of mine tore one of the Bose cubes apart to identify the driver and found out he could purchase them for less than $3 each in quantity. Me thinks they make some profit eh? Pete

Very tough decision. As one who originally wanted a 950 with amp but got tired of waiting, I ended up with the Pioneer Elite 49TX and just love it. For sure, the Denon 5803 is a great product but it cost more and I felt that the Elite was more user friendly - easier for my wife to use - and had...

I have a new Pioneer Elite 49TX and initially am just using 2 speakers until I get my kit cabinets veneered. Even though I have all the surround speakers set to off and the subwoofer set to off with the front speakers set to large I am not getting full bass output. The lower frequencies are...

There was a question in regards to considering the Rotel 1066 with amp as option versus the 49tx that I decided on. As no dealer near me stocks any of the higher end products, looking and listening was not an option. I reviewed the Rotel 1066 specs and pictures. Loved the look, liked the...

Howard's logic applies to me also. I just purchased a 49TX as I wanted to take the maximum leap forward for the money I wanted to spend at this time. Would I have rather gone with separates? YES! But none are available for the $2400 that I spent. For me, it made sense to go with the 49TX as it...

Thank you Howard!! As one who requested - prodded you for a review, I really appreciate you taking time for this. You made some excellent points and I will check into an amp upgrade thanks to you - or should I say no-thanks to you as this will cost me even more money :D . Thanks to all here...

You need to go to Denon's website and then PHONE contact each of the authorized internet dealers. You will be amazed at the discounts available. I called one and told them the going internet price from the NON-authorized dealers and they came within $200 and you get full factory warrantee then...

RajeeK, You have no idea how true that is. I downloaded the manual and have been reading it but some things will make more sense when I have the 49tx to play with. I think us newbies will be pestering you pros with questions! Howard, Weren't you the one looking at adding an amp versus an...

I have always liked the Yamaha units but my experiences are from the stereo days. My original receiver was a Pioneer SX1010 - about 75# and far larger than anything sold now. Then came Yamaha with a receiver much larger again, heavier, more powerful - wish I could remember the model as I think...

Well, I did it. Ordered yesterday evening from 6ave. My reasoning is this (valid in my mind only ;) ). As I have no separates at all, this gets me up and running with all the premium features and far more amplifier power than my old receiver. It seems to me that the pre-amp features are as...

Is there a source for detailed information on this unit? The Pioneer site has some but does not give details on the DACs - how many BurrBrowns, component video frequency, etc. I have read some reviews but they lacked any real details. I have downloaded the manual and I am impressed but just want...

I really wanted to go with separates but nothing is available in my price range - Outlaw not shipping and Rotel backordered like crazy. The Pioneer Elite VSX-49TX can be purchased for $2425 delivered from an authorized Elite dealer and seems to be a fantastic product. I have no way to see or...
