Purchased the Yamaha RD-A2010 at model close out price of $949!
Just had the weekend but has an incredibly clear picture and the sound is incredible. More to come as I experiment and get used to this receiver. Everything MUCH better than the expensive Anthem, I had!!
I want to thank everyone for...
I would like to see a clarification of what you mean re profit margins, etc.- am I missing something?
Sure wish the and had an ethernet plug - that would be the one. However, it might be nice and clean like the anthem that I don't like.
I know about NAD and have been interested - maybe we should try one.
A salesman at Fryes (whom I know much more than they) told be, when comparing the Yamaha RS-A820 to the Onkyo TX-NR818 and other Onkyo, that the Onkyo gets too hot and the AV chips don't mean much - the amplifier is the most...
Looking at the Yamaha RX-A820 and the Onkyo TX-NR818 or 717. Do you think there will be a difference in the video (like I saw with the Yamaha RX-A2010) between these? I have never listened to an Onkyo but someone told me it has a "dirty" sound, whatever that means.
How would you compare these as...
I noticed a difference in the video of the Yamaha RX-A2010. It was sharper and my assumption it is the new HQV chip. I am interested in the RX-A810 which has been replaced with the 820 with fewer needed features. Have not been able to find an 810 to watch - would I notice that same difference...
one last thing. I suppose any of the mid range receivers such as the Yamaha Adventege , RX series, Denon AVR2313, AVR2113 and some Marantz, Pioneer Elite in the $600 - $800 range would work well with the speaker setup we have - correct?
Is there any brand I am missing or does anyone have a...
Have a new dealer. One quick question - how would you rate a 90 watt Yamaha (2 channels driven) in a 5.1 setup? Is there some kind of formula or???
Thanksy:rolleyes:

I am using 5 Speakercraft in-ceiling speakers (either Aim or Profile Aim) with a Definitive Technologies ProSub 1000.
Is the new Adventage line from Yamaha worth considering or shall I stay with the RSX mid-upper lines? I was looking at the Pioneer Elite (which I've never owned) and the VSX-60...
Sold a Yamaha AV receiver (RX-V?? around $550 new) and wanted to upgrade to a receiver that might possibly our last, so went to buy a Marantz. The dealer showed us the Anthem 300 and 500 and we read the few reviews that we could find and decided to "invest" the money in the Anthem. The dealer...
