    The Vandersteen Treo CTs, diminishing returns, and the end of (audio) history

    Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you look around a room and realize, “I don’t belong here and everybody knows it.”? Growing up lower-middle class in the US and being in constant economic peril until about the age of 30, I sure have. This is the story of how a pair of speakers...

    I have an immaculate condition Denon x3700 receiver for sale for $995. I bought based on all the fantastic reviews it received on websites like audiosciencereview and others.

    SOLD: Revel Performa m105

    I’m selling a like new pair of Revel Performa m105 speakers in black color. I purchased these brand new a year ago and only used these for two speaker shootouts. They look and sound fantastic and are very neutral. I realized I don’t like that neutral sound. That’s the only reason I’m selling...

    Denon X4500H. Most like which reviewed Denon?

    So Amir has reviewed the following Denon items: X3500H X3600H X3700H X4700H The X3500H didn't do well (especially for internal DAC, which I would use), the others did much better. I am thinking about picking up an X4500H. In terms of performance, would it more likely be like the X3500H or...

    Best amp under 500$?

    Despite weeks of research I can’t seem to find an amplifier that majority of people agree is a worthy unit. I am looking for sound quality mainly, and will use Elac B5.2 along with a Dayton sub1200. I currently have a (2011) Denon AVR 591 home theater receiver. This was their base model amp back...

    Audyssey Multieq-X: Real bi-amping with active crossover

    Denon AVRs have an option for bi-amping the main speakers. My understanding is this is the typical “passive bi-amping” where the same signal is sent to both, as there is no crossover functionality implemented by default. However: * Denon AVR already have active speaker/subwoofer crossovers. *...

    Denon X3700H vs x4700H

    The Denon X3700H is about $1,500 and the Denon X4700H is about $2000. These AVRs represent the best of the budget I am willing to spend on my next AVR. As far as I can see the only differences are that the X4700H has DDSC, Clock Jitter Reducer, Alpha Processing, and 20 extra watts per channel...

    Denon increases prices for 2022

    Is it just my memory going bad or did Denon just increase the prices of their AVRs by $100 for 2022? Marantz prices remained the same. They started using the inferior PCM1502A DAC and now they're charging customers more for less quality sound? wow https://www.denon.com/en-us/category/av-receivers

    Denon Heos Distortion Problem

    Hey, came across a wierd problem, my Denon 4700 distorts any music I play via Heos, the highs made me think my DBR62s had turned into a B&W ;) Apparently looking at the 4700 thread Im not the only one encountering this problem. Has anyone found a solution yet, seems to be a software issue. Thanks

    Preamp quandary for 2.1 or 2.2 stereo

    Hello, I've been reading for quite some time all the threads I can find about how to do a decent but affordable 2.1 or (ideally) 2.2 setup for music. Source is a Windows tablet running Foobar2000 + EqualizerAPO through a Meizu Hifi Pro dongle - prefer this to previous setup of Chromecast Audio...

    Moving from a X6200W, help deciding between a X6700H or X4700H

    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...

    AVR input levels from DAC

    So I have a Denon A110 which is basically the same as the 8500. The Denon analog input spec states 200mv and when I inquired to Denon support they said the same thing. I have the X16 at 0db and previously the node2i at fixed volume plugged in and have not heard any signs of distortion/clipping...

    80hz on my speakers after calibration on Denon AVR? advice

    Okay! a controversial topic! can I ask why you guys say to put all crossovers on fronts centre and rear surrounds at 80hz? After I’ve run Audyssey on my Denon AVR-X2200, it always sets my Fronts, rears and centre at 40hz... I then always change them to 80hz as the recommendations, then I set...

    I feel like HEOS is overlooked!

    Hi all, I have now owned 3 Denon / Marantz receivers with HEOS (3500, 3600, and SR6012). I always discounted it as a solution for the lazy or as a Sonos replacement, never thinking it was up to snuff for my “serious” (lol) listening practices. I previously used a Chromecast Audio into a DAC...

    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 to Hot Rod a Denon AVR-X3600H?

    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...
