av receiver

I’ve recently found out that using a hdmi to lightning adapter cable i can stream music directly from my iphone by connecting the cable into one of the hdmi ports on the back of the receiver. My question is by using this method am i getting full hi res lossless audio? Also in this method which...

looking for a receiver/integrated amp class ab atleast 100 wpc loaded with akm dac and usb port that support direct streaming through smartphone. Thanks.

I have pioneer receiver. I want to use an external dac. I have a question. How can i connect the external dac to the av receiver so that av receiver does not use its own dac? Also i usually connect my phone directly to av receiver usb port to stream music, so in case of an external dac i would...

I have a Fiio BTA30 DAC/AMP (bought mainly for my PC) but noticed that when I connect my TV optical output to it and then from it to my A/V receiver, the sound quality improves noticeably compared to when my TV is directly connected to the A/V Receiver. My question is whether it is worth...

Hello I have a question. I have two speakers one is Triangle Borea Br08 and other is Klipsch RP800F. I use the same amp Pioneer but i have noticed in Triangles all the vocals are coming from mid-range speaker and in Klipsch vocals are coming from the tweeter. I used same amp and same song...

I have a 3 way speaker and recently i have noticed that most the sound including vocals is coming from the mid range speaker. Tweeter is like it’s not even there. My question is so in a two way speaker does the tweeter do all the work ? I mean all the sound and vocals comes from tweeter except...

I have two pioneer receivers, one is vsx 1131. The vocals on it are amazing, it can make any song sound better but because of that there is not much instruments separation, instruments sound bright too. In short i am looking for an amplifier that has airy bright vocals but has warm detailed...

A dumb question maybe but is there any specific component in an av receiver that is directly responsible for the vocals produced by the av receiver?

I need some advise. I have an A/V setup from 20+ years ago and few months ago one of my amplifiers (Proceed HPA3 - 3 channel amp) stopped working. I need some help on what to look at as possible replacement. Here is my setup - B&W Nautilus 802 - stereo B&W HTM-1 - center channel Rel Stentor II...

I have a Klipsch powered subwoofer I want to connect it to my TV, which pre-amp would give the subwoofer optimal performance?

It is my understanding that HDMI 2.1 supports up to 48Gbps of bandwidth allowing for uncompressed 8k and higher quality audio. But isn't that pointless if your HDMI 2.1 source component is plugged into your receiver/processor that only has HDMI 2.0 inputs that can only handle 18Gbps of...

Goodday everyone, The past couple of months I have been trying to decide on which AVR/AVP device is the best for my system and I have been struggling to find something that will suit me. I currently have a new 5.0 surround system with 5 active speakers and I am planning of getting a sub too...

Short Answer: Do not purchase this speaker Long answer: This particular Fluance speaker sounds like an IPhone speaker on poorly manufactured steroids. The overall sound is flat and raspy, the bass is non existent, and the highs are bright/hollow sounding. I have tried this speaker with several...

In excellent physical and working condition. Considered the best hifi amp for an entry price. v2 retails for $479. Sounded great with different speakers I tried with. Slim form factor. Price is $220 local cash pickup (zip code: 08540). I prefer local cash pickup and I am willing to travel...

My precious X6200W of six years, took a good bit of a power surge, from a nearby lightning strike a few weeks ago. (HDMI 1 port is dead, all kinds of sporadic EDID issues between devices, and the pre-outs no longer work) My setup is 7.1.4, with the two rear heights powered by a 2-channel amp...

Is the sound quality degraded or about the same? I just read a lengthy post on this forum where they analyzed all they could on Chromecast Audio: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-chromecast-audio-digital-output.4544/ Is there one for...

I have an LG C9 OLED TV with KEF Q-750 towers, Q-650 center, Q150 rears, KUBE12 sub, and Onkyo410 Atmos. I plan on adding maybe 2 more 150 side speakers. I've borrowed my brothers Yamaha RXV579 last 2 months waiting for a receiver with HDMI 2.1 - anticipating PS5. Usage: 50% movies/sports...

How can we hot rod the Denon AVR-X3600H Receiver to get more performance out of it? Based on Amir’s review and measurements here, the X3600H is good platform to build a home theater or even a 2-channel system around. I have a 2-channel system. I, for one, would like to add a higher powered...

I want to install external DAC between android media player (Zidoo Z9S) and my AV receiver (Marantz AV8801) since the AV receiver cannot play DSD file using USB storage. How to see if the output from external DAC is a match to pre-amp built in AV receiver? Zidoo to external DAC (plan to buy...
