    Pioneer 912K & Sony DA4ES

    Sammans actually does sell online, but they do it under the name Ultimate Electronics through yahoo shopping. I purchased my 4ES from Ultimate Electronics for $592 shipped, and only found out I was REALLY buying from Sammans after I noticed the charge on my debit card statement. Here's the link...

    Pioneer 912K & Sony DA4ES

    So far (after a little over a week) I'm loving the 4ES. I have it set up and calibrated, but haven't even skimmed the surface on the EQs yet. The remote is different... I could probably get used to it, but I've also just purchased a pronto which I'm also absolutely in love with. As for the...

    Pioneer 912K & Sony DA4ES

    That depends on the bass management of the 912K and of your actual player. You may want to call pioneer and see how the 912K handles bass from the multichannel inputs. I'm pretty sure that the 4ES's crossovers and EQs take effect even on multichannel inputs, but I could be wrong. Bass management...

    Pioneer 912K & Sony DA4ES

    The 912K looks like it's going to be the next version of the current 811S w/ the addition of Auto MCACC being the most notable change. It'll have a great feature set and be very hard to beat at the $350 price point. As a previous 811S owner, I would not hesitate to recommend it to someone...
