Andrew, I think you are correct. I should have checked the manual for the 325 before posting instead of assuming the situation with analog inputs were the same. As you can see from my question to HK I was referring to the 320. I did not think that the situation changed with the 325. I pulled...
I just dug up the email from H/K. My question was originally about the 320, which H/K upgraded to the 325 due to problems with the surround back channels. It is my understanding that the 325 and likely the 330, 430, etc. operate in the same fashion...
Chris, I have a H/K 325 and the only way to not have an analog signal go through an analog-to-digital conversion is to use the 6/8 channel inputs. I confirmed this with H/K tech support shortly after I received the unit. I would imagine the same is true on the 330. I think that the 430 is...
No, I am not using any DSP modes when the problem occurs (Neo 6, Logic 7, etc.) As I mentioned in my original post, and as you suggested, the problem is gone when the speakers are set to large and the sub is off. When using an analog signal from the CD player the only way to keep the analog...
Geoff, I understand your apprehension with the 325 and HK. I should point out that I have been completely happy with the unit before I noticed this problem. The other thing I should mention is that I still have not been able to isolate the issue on another disc. I watched the Allman Brothers...
I posted the text below in the Ascend forum and would also like to get some feedback from users on this forum. It describes an issue I noticed with my AVR 325 when the crossover is active. _____________________________ I came across a problem within the last two days and thought I would...
Chris, I have CBM 170's with an HK AVR 325 and a Rava sub. I think it is a great combination. The Rava sub really helps to fill out the remainder of the low end. In my room I get very good bass extension down to about 60 Hz from the CBM's. I have them crossed over at 80 Hz from the 325 with...
Greg, I have already returned my unit, but I think the manufactured date on the unit was July or August 2002. I remember that the date was just a couple of months before I purchased the unit, which was in October.
Rick, The short answer is not no sound, but instead an inadvertantly muted sound for SBR relative to SBL due to a problem with the Logic 7 processing in 7.1 mode. I agree that the surround speakers (outputs) will not be sent a full range signal at all times. In this particular case there...
John S, I set the receiver to 6.1/7.1 surround sound for the input I choose for the test, CD in my case. Then all you need to do is connect the SBR and SBL pre-out from the 320/520 to an external amplifier's RCA inputs. The external amp should be connected to a set of speakers, for which...
I picked up the 320 several months ago from JandR for 390 + shipping. I think it is a great unit for that price. I mainly listen to 2-channel music and found the 320 to be adquate. It's my first surround sound set-up so I really can't compare its surround abilities with other similar units...
Here is the reply concerning the 6/8 channel inputs: Michael, I am sorry about the delay with e-mail responses. Yes, the 6/8 channel direct inputs maintain an analog signal straight through to the amplifier. Thank you! So I guess this is a way around the absence of a direct analog...
Here is a reply I received from H/K on a related question. I think it may be of some use. I am trying to find out if using the analog 6.1 inputs avoids the DA conversion process. Hi Michael, The AVR320 does not maintain a pure analog signal when you have an analog connection. The tone...
