I have been using the RZ50 for a few months and just recently ran into an issue. It shut down on me twice during the new Batman movie when loud explosions occurred. I don’t see why this happened since my LR are powered with NC400s, all speakers are set to small and crossed at 80hz, I don’t...

Doubt in conventional approaches/thinking is how we make progress. My view is that we (as a species) have such a limited understanding of the world that even when we believe we understand something, that understanding is superficial. This pandemic has demonstrated that doubt is essential...

Is it correct that these AVRs have a universal crossover rather than individual crossovers?

Are any amps available for shipping now or is there a waitlist?

how about this?

https://hometheaterhifi.com/blogs/anthem-mdx-8-distribution-amplifier/ I came across the above advertorial/review and this amp looks like a pretty decent value (assuming the performance is decent). Has anyone used or seen measurements of a similar Anthem amp? I like the fact that each zone has...

While front projectors dont currently support DV, you can use a HDFURY device to trick a source (like ATV4K) to use LLDV (also known as player led DV). In this scenario, the ATV4K would tone map the movie for your projector (which would also apply its own tone mapping). It’s not as good as madvr...

This device‘s claim to fame is HDR tone mapping (most relevant for projectors). It does a pretty decent job if the meta data in the movie is accurate and tone mapping is very rare in blu ray players. The only alternatives at a similar price point are: madvr on an HTPC or a LLDV (low latency...

What can ARC and Dirac do that Audyssey (XT 32) cannot? With the Audyssey app you can create custom curves and limit the correction frequency. Audyssey also does a good job dual subs.

Are you implying that it sounds good, great or something else?

I would suggest trying the 820 as a standalone video player and DAC. My bet is that it is transparent enough on the audio side to make the DX7 Pro unnecessary.

I think Amir is secretly a short seller. He publishes negative reviews to drive down stock prices and make himself rich!

This player earned its fame for its tone mapping capabilities, which are very helpful when displaying HDR content on a display that is incapable of 1000 nit brightness.

Agreed with the compliments to the company. Following their recent designs and interactions here, I bought a Modi 3 + Magni Heresy for my computer. I am very happy to give a US company my cash if they are providing a quality product at a good price.

I'm condused. Does this mean that you do like vinyl or that you dont like vinyl?
