I hear you - I've opted for the Vivid Audio B1's.  I've heard them on another amo and they were unreal! Let's see how this ensemble works out! Thanks for your advice! Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Thanks, Jason! Those PL 300's are unreal. I don't think I could go wrong with a set of those! Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Hi Deon, I'm eying those vivid audio b1's - but I will check out the speakers you mentioned for sure! Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Thank you, Deon! I hear you on the speakers front! Would the audio gold 300's high end speakers? Or should I aim for something better to go with this amp? Vince appears to have tested the amp with some serious speakers. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk

Hi Vince! Thanks for your input. Sharp as always! I presently have B&W 683 S2's. I'm contemplating picking up the monitor audio gold series available in the forum. I have a monitor audio gold series sub, among other items that aren't really relevant to this particular amp. It looks to me like...

Hi folks! I love the rich sound of the marantz integrated amps. In just about ready to pull the trigger on a pm10 s1. Before I do, I thought I'd ask the forum for opinions on the amp and if there were any alternatives that I should consider? Any input would be appreciated! Thanks, Rick...

Thanks, Trompie - I'm fiddling with settings right now. I messed something up and managed to get it right (not the sound that I'm trying to sort out, though). I need a few more minutes of playing. I'll double check the file type as well. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Absolutely. Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Thank you - I will see if the Mygica has that option and I'll report back! I would love to get this working, some of the dts files are about 20 Gigs. Imagine the sound quality! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk

Howdy folks, I have set up a 5.1 system using a Yamaha RX-A3070. It is pretty good, but, I get absolutely no sound on downloaded files that have DTS sound. Is there something that I am missing here? The AVR itself is one of the good ones, so I find it odd that not all codecs are covered. I...

Hi everyone, I am a big Marantz fan - and I just read that they will be releasing a PM8006. I cannot find any info on the item yet, please could you let me know if you pick up any gossip or any firm info? Thanks! Rick

Lol! I hear you! I will make a plan - in fact, I am about to leave to collect my subwoofer which has finally arrived. By this afternoon I should have figured out the pic thing. There is still a heck of a lot for me to learn with this AVr thing, however, it will be a fun process. I printed out...

Thanks, guys. I ended up getting a Monitor Audio Bronze 5 surround set of speakers. They are set up front stage at present - these AVR units are something else in terms of capabilities and complexity! Life is good. I will play with this RX-A850 for a bit, and then I will get something...

Thanks very much for your reply. It makes sense. I have a few B&W speakers on my hifi. Perhaps I should try those out too and play a bit.

Hello everyone, I just got a Yamaha RX-a850 unit and I am struggling to select appropriate speakers for this item. I have some old cheap Yamaha 5.1 set lying around (5 x 100W @6ohms + subwoofer). Surely I should be spending a bit more money and getting a decent 5.1 setup commensurate with this...

Awesome feedback - thanks! My room is about 4.5m x 6m - walls not treated. I compared setups that were consistent. so far, about 3 days in, I have noticed that the Yamaha integrated is 'mellowing' - it is not so piercingly sharp, but still very clear. More bass is coming through.

Hi everyone! A little over a year ago I put together a stereo system on a wing and a prayer. The results were not horrid, but, even to my untrained ear there was a lot of room for improvement. I met one or two chaps from the AVForums who showed me their systems (which were brilliant!). They...
