Chip, I'm looking to start a new HT setup. How much would you consider selling the all 3 units for? Also, is there any warranty left on these units and if so, is it transferrable? You can email me at [email protected] Thanks, Jorge
how many hours would you guesstimate are on this unit? What kind of speakers were you using this amp with? Any issues at all with this amp? Lastly, about how much would shipping be to Tampa, Fl from where you live? Thanks, Jorge
You all have helped me approach this purchase more sensibly now. I am now leaning towards going with the separates, and perhaps going through Audiogon/ebay to buy the higher quality stuff for a reasonable price. My amplifier/electronic components will in fact all be located in my gameroom. I had...
Thanks for the reply Charlie. Point well taken ChrisHeflen. My room is actually set up for 6.1 (I have 2surround and 1 center rear inceiling SpeakerCraft AIMones) in conjunction with the Logans. After doing a lot of research on great forums like this, I realized that 6.1 isn't very well...
Sorry FeisalK, I didn't realize that was your sig(My bad) I've enjoyed the discussion between CharlieC and Drew_W. I just was offered an opportunity to pick up a brand new B&K AVR 507 (185Wx7@4ohm)which I understand now is a non current limiting amp for $2000 versus getting a Yamaha 1400 with...
"There are 10 kinds of people - those who understand b1inary, and those who dont." What was the purpose of that comment? I'm asking a question because I don't know the answer which is what I thought was the purpose of this forum. Jorge
I see that the Rotel 1075 puts out 200Wx5 @ 4ohms DIN Power output (1 KHz, 1%). What does that exactly mean? Also, being that 95% of the time I'll be using my setup for HT, does that make a difference in the above choices? Thanks again. Jorge
I have a choice of getting a really good deal on a new B&K AVR507 receiver (150Wx7@8ohm, 185Wx7@4ohms RMS) for around $2000 -usually on sale for $3000, versus the Yamaha 1400 (110Wx7@8ohm) with a Rotel amp RMB 1075 (120Wx5@8ohm RMS, 200Wx5@4ohm DIN power output-meaning?) for around $1800. The...
Thanks for all of the suggestions. So do think the Rotel processor RSP-1068 and Rotel RMB 1075 5channel amp be a better way to power the Martin Logans? Now the Rotel amp I believe is 125W/channel where the B&K AVR 507 is 150W/channel. Does that change anybody's mind? Thanks, Jorge
Well, for that budget, which seperates would you recommend which would yield at least the same amount of power as either one of those receivers. Thanks again. JorgeG
I have 2 Martin Logan Ascents for my fronts and the center Martin Logan Cinema. For my surrounds, I have in ceiling AIMone speakers. I trying to decide between getting the Sunfire Ultimate receiver (used) vs B&K AVR 507 (new) for $3000. Which do you all think would be the better choice? Thanks...
Bryan, I am primarily using the system for HT. I live in Florida so I don't know how feasible it would be to listen to your setup. What type of receiver/amp would you recommend for this setup? Jorge
I certainly appreciate all of the above feedback. It's great to hear so many different opinions regarding a topic! I'm going to buy the Ascents for my 2 fronts and the Cinema for my center this weekend. I'm very excited to start listening to these pieces of art in the comfort of my own home. I'm...
Hi, my name is Jorge Gadea from Tampa, Fl and I wanted to get some advice from any of you knowledgeable audiophiles out there. I'm fairly new to HT but I have a true appreciation for true sound. I'm putting together HT 6.1 setup. Already have in-ceiling surround rears and rear center...
I just wanted to get some opinions out there on Martin Logan speakers. I listened to them at my local Sound Advice here in Tampa, Fl and they sounded beautiful! The sound was crisp and melodious and I quickly realized a seperate sub would be needed for the bass. The Electrostatic technology...
Thanks for the replies. I'm sorry, I should have clarified the receiver as being a Yamaha RX-V1400 (110Wx7). So do you think I should get a separate amp to drive Zone 2 (if so, what kind of specs) or do you think the Yamaha will be powerful enough to do the job along with powering the rear...
Hi there, my name is Jorge (from Tampa, Fl) and I'm fairly new to the site (which is awesome) as well as to A/V. I've been learning alot from reading all the threads. I see that that there are a lot of knowledgeable people on this site so I was going to see if some of you would be good enough to...
