Have you looked at Remote Central. They specialize in the mega programmables like the Pronto. I had a quick look around and I can't find anything for a 39tx, but I did find something for the 49tx. I bet they are very similar. While a Pronto will cost you $$$, you can buy a factory refurbed...

Steve, Thanks. I have the mic from Pioneer, but I don't have the foam disc. I clipped the mic to a cloth, so it would stay put, and placed it very close to ear height on the sofa. I just ran it again and I got very different results, a mixture of + and -. I also noticed the test tones were...

I ran the auto setup on my 45tx and I have some strange results. My question concerns the fact that it set all of my speakers to -10.0db. Can that be correct? Won't that result in a serious loss of volume? Two runs arrived at the same setting. It also set my speakers to LARGE, but I was...

Well, I've run into a problem with the 45tx. Twice I've noticed that turning up the volume knob, results in erratic up/down of volume, but generally the volume goes down. Was this a problem with the 45tx? The store will repair/replace the unit, but I thought I'd check here for advice. They...

So far I LOVE this unit. The sound is full and clear. I haven't really put it through it's paces for HT yet, but CD's are great. It makes my ELT sing, as well as can be expected for small bookshelves. I smile everytime I turn it on and think about the fact that I got the 45tx and the ELT for...

Joshua, You're not hijacking if you ask me. I have 30 days to decide if I'll keep it. So far so good. The first film was Wizard of Oz. My 6 & 9 year old loved it! I spoke to Pioneer about a preemptive update. The rep said she had never heard of a problem with the 45tx. She knew about the...

I just purchased a floor model 45tx for $375 and I have a question. The manufacture date is July 2002 and I've seen reports of an upgrade to cure a shutdown problem. Should I pursue it with Pioneer? Who know's maybe they'll give me a 55tx:b Ken

I'm going back to the store tomorrow. Who know's it might be gone. 4 of the speakers are 8 ohm and the center is 6, so I don't think that would be a problem.

Thanks Steve.. Coming from a fellow Fresnan is means a lot:D Herbert Hoover High Patriots RULE.

I've looked at the 914, but I think it's lacking 2nd zone and isn't the MCACC a limited version? I don't see MCACC as a necesssity, but it's one of the biggest pluses for Pioneer. If it's not the "real thing"("light" like the 5760) the Pioneer falls way off. There's also a thought in my mind...

Thanks Chris. Gotta cover all my bases:b The big problem for us E-buyers, we don't get to use our ears! I have nor eliminated the 430, but the next cheapest places to get it are on Ebay and 2/3 look like they use the same distributor as my ill fated purchase. If I could keep everyone from...

Could someone offer an opinion? I had a terrible experience trying to buy an AVR430 over the internet. The unit looked like someone had used it as a trampoline. Actually, it was probably dropped, since the weight distibution is quite unbalanced. Anyway, I have a 13x13 theater carved out...

Steve, Now you've got me worried and my refurb AVR430 won't even arrive for a week:frowning: Before I bought, I wondered why there aren't refurb tx53 etc.. Can you descibe the symptoms of the failures you've seen. I don't want to look for trouble, but I like to be an informed consumer...

HK is certainly not garbage. He may prefer the Denon sound, but HK is not garbage. Since you work there, listen to all of them a lot and decide for yourself. All of them are nice machines. The NR801 even has the added feature of playing networked MP3s. A seperate device to do that for the...

Thanks. I mis-posted it originally, but I see I put the repost in the wrong forum as well.

Lee, I am a former Dish customer. They will have to pry my DirectTivo out of my hands when I die! 1) I am not qualified to discuss compression algorithms, but Direct's picture is not inferior to Dish. In fact, I switched because the Locals on Dish were soooo bad, last years New Years day...

Hello all, I'm finishing my basement and the boss has approved a widescreen(knock me over with a feather). Anyway, I've been reading this forum for a week. WOW, what a fountain of information. I've seen many posts mention OneCall, but not one for PAC-2000. Is there something wrong with them...
