[QUOTE="greatwhite, post: 1005695, member: 22324"] Nice to hear of someone that has some done things in a way that doesn't appear to be a touch underhanded. This got me to looking at few others. Denon also lead with massive power values against 1 channel at stupid THD values, but directly underneath state values against values against 0.08% THD at 8 ohms with 2 channel driven - better! Yamaha was a good one: their baby stereo receiver, the R-S202 they lead with 140w/ channel at 10%THD, specify 0.2% THD but don't provide parameters for it and their manual specifies 100w/channel at 0.7% THD at 8 ohms. Their top R-N803 they lead with '100 W + 100 W (8 ohms, 20 Hz-20 kHz, 0.019% THD)' . Each model is specified in varying ways so its difficult to make an apples to apples comparison even in their own product line. (Curious in itself: It would almost appear their philisophy for stereo receivers is more refinement and features with more price - power stays essentially the same) I haven't looked at other manufacturers - I looks at these guys simply because of equipment I have an interest in. I'm interest to hear others thoughts on those other manufacturers (or these).......lets leave cables, especially digital cable alone though :EGrin: Even to a 'n00b' like me that appear to be a subject to be careful on in this forum [/QUOTE]
