this whole neutral thing confuses me. it seems a PERFECT amp/AVR is not supposed to have any character at all. by this logic all ice cream flavours should taste the same. all cars should have same 0-100 speed. all perfumes should smell the same. there should be only one language in the world.

please share a list of "COMPETENTLY" designed amplifier in this case AVR at different price points from : Top Price no bar to Bottom budget options so that we can all get to hear the Movie Soundtracks as "Intended" by the creators. At what price point do "COMPETENTLY" designed AVRs start ? Thanks.

have heard several avrs. nothing beats arcam/nad in musicality. though overall Yamaha is the king of avrs. noone can match their deep experience with musical instruments which reflects in their avrs. it gives them an edge as they understand music and sound like no other. above is personal...

for music.... yamaha anthem nad arcam

yep, this has been proved. I've myself lugged around my personal speakers for auditioning and all AVRs sound very different from each other. but some people who can't hear differences assume/argue that others also can't hear differences. all Brands have a Unique Sound Signature.

I think it's been generally well accepted fact by now that Auro 3D is the ultimate upmixer. it's evident from the fact that despite having minimum native releases outside Europe all AVR manufacturers are clamouring to get Auro 3D in there AVR because of the Automatic upmixer. seems now they are...

Yamaha is big daddy, this can never happen in a 100 yrs. I'm almost buying the a6a. but curious if Yamaha will bring Dirac in the probable upcoming a8b and a6b.

op, waiting on your observations on 3800 vs A6A for 2 channel music. though I feel the denon will be no match for the Yamaha.

how is onkyo able to give free Auro3D and Dirac while others are charging ?

now that Yamaha didn't announce any thing at the CES 2024, would it be safe to assume that there is not going to be a A6B,A8B for another year?

will it be able to beat the Yamaha A8A/A6A twins in sound quality? Im keenly interested in the x6800 for it's number of channels.

Now that the current Yamaha have been around for 3 yrs which is a eternity in the AVR world, how soon should we expect the announcement of the 2024 models? Will they showcase same at CES 2024? Excited and looking forward to what Yamaha brings in the new series....!!!

was planning to pick this up after reviewing here. but just saw this won an 2021 award with 5 stars at what hifi. can anyone explain what's going on?

why the shyness to announce it if the embargo is over ?

thanks, could you be kind enough to telle which amongst them is a closest 1to1 equal competitor to the nx300d ?

ok so for the understanding of the other 99 percent non engeneering background readers of this forum... is it correct to deduce that the C40 is far far superior to the X4800 and the price difference is justified....? because everywhere we read people say the x4800/C40 have identical components...

what will be some examples of some direct competitor products to the nx300d in just amplifier and amplifier including DSP options...? thanks.

using this device, can we connect a pair of speakers to used as front left right in an AVR (5.1) and also separately to a Stereo Amplifier for 2 channel audio listening....? essentially connecting the same pair of speakers to an AVR and a Stereo Amplifier?

oh no, im keenly considering cinema 40/50. I'm very worried now. Good sir, when is the reviews expected?

Hi, Usage: Movies/Music 50/50 not a gamer, don't need hdmi 2.1 neither has Dirac so that doesn't matter. existing speakers 5.1 PSB Image + 2 Pairs of Image for overheads Atmos/Auro3D. no chance to demo where I live, but an order via a dealer. at same price which is Sonically better ? Thanks.
