    TSR-7850/Jabra buds: Voice sync problem?

    Not sure if I am in the right forum, but I'll give it a try. I have paired my Jabra Elite 7 Active earbuds to my Yamaha TSR-7850 receiver. Problem is that the voice is out sync. Would appreciate knowing how to sync the buds to the Yammy? BTW, if I can sync, will the syncing effect syncing when...

    No sound from Sennheiser headphones?

    Not sure if this is the right place, but I'll give it a try anyway. Until recently, I was able to hear sound from my Sennheiser TR 175 when hooked into my AVR Yamaha TSR 7850. The hook up was via left/right audio analog ports at the back of the AVR. I also had to have the AVR set to Zone 2 so...

    I have a Yamaha TSR-7850 and have initiated my PC's iTunes Airplay between the two, and it works just fine.

    I have just gotten a new LG 55C8 and will be needing two new 6' HDMI cables. One will go to the Hotwire box and the other to my Fire TV Stick. I intend to buy from Monoprice. Will I need any kind of "special" (like a high speed one) cable or will just a "regular" HDMI cable do? Thanks.

    On page 42 of the Yammy manual, are the instructions for setting DD LFE Level (10A) and DTS LFE Level (11).

    Yamaha RXV800: Increase volume, DB goes to lower minus DB?

    Confusing, yes. Let me explain better. Let's say that why I turn on the Yammy, the volume reads -45db. And as I increase the volume, the reading goes to -30, for example. Why is volume minus in the first place? I can see that a lower minus does indicate things are getting more positive...

    How to get grill off Paradigm PDR-10?

    Have a 10 year old PDR-10 that has a rumble in it. The rumble appears to be coming from the speaker itself. I would like to examine the speaker, but the grill is firmly attached to the box and I can't get to it. BTW, it is noted that the grill isn't attached normally; ie, not by attachment clips.

    I thought I could fix my Paradigm PDR-10's rumble

    Been getting an increasing rumbling sound from my 10 year old sub as its level turned up (not even a third of the way). Came across a 2010forum post of mine in which I had a noise problem with this sub. Opened the back and found some wires dangling. Taped them up and the noise was gone. Figured...
