Nice receiver that has discrete analog in and pre-out which can only be found in top of the line of current models. I bought it new from AV2001...lightly used, excellent condition and very clean and everything works. Original items like calibration mic, original remote, antenna loop, box, all...

I'm sitting here with an old Kenwood VR-507. I have it hooked up to a sub-woofer & a number of front centre surround speakers. It has worked OK for some time (years!) - with the exception of just plain cutting out in heavy loud sound sections of movies. Its time to move on. Looking at a...

Hi - I have recently purchased Yamaha RX-V371 for around 250$ in US and brought it to India. It was working fine for 2 months but one fine morning it suddenly went dead. As per service guy, the front display IC is punctured and HDMI PCB board is not working and needs replacement which might...

I am hoping I can borrow someone's expertise. I just purchased a new Emotiva Amp. XPA-5 and I've been reading the manual while I wait for it to ship. It doesn't have a remote, but the manual shows a 12V remote trigger input and output on the back to turn the unit on and off with a Pre-amp or...

I recently picked up a Yamaha HTR-6250 and have been rather happy with it, since it's managed to detect my TV and PVR with no problem, and delivers pretty good sound and a picture as good as if the devices were directly hooked to the TV itself. However, I have a question regarding the DTS-HD...

I have a couple of my old Polk RM series speakers that are still mounted up on my wall that I left there since I upgraded to some RTi's and put everthing on stands. They just happen to be exactly where you should mount a set of presence speakers that a lot of the Yamaha receivers allow through...

I have an older 6th series Panasonic plasma that is an Industrial model (monitor), meaning that it does not have any tuner, speakers or HDMI inputs. I am likely to purchase a BD player shortly. So, do I need to have an HDMI for up converting DVDs? It is my understanding that HDMI is...

I woke up to my stereo blasting at 4 Am wondering WTF! I could see no reason for it and duduced it was a rogue IR wave that triggered the remote control or something. Several weeks went by with no problem, then it happened again. Again I figured some kind of freak accident. The other day, it...

Hi, this is my first post to the forums so bear with me if I mess it up a bit... I have a Yamaha 6180, which is connected to my PS-3 for Blu-ray playback - The video is incredible and the sound is great, but I have this little question/issue... When I play a movie that has DTS HD or Dolby HD...

Hi All, I'm stuck here... I use my PS3 as a Blu Ray / DVD player, and when plugged into my TV with HDMI it worked fine. How I get a sync issue. It will switch over fine, but then it will have a greenish flicker. Not the 2 second flicker people had before... Kind of a white noise flicker...

I bought a Yamaha 6160 in May. I had never owned an AV receiver before. I would have appreciated a post by someone else at the time with a few hints and tips, so now that I have a few months of playing with various options, here are a few pointers (from a relative noob, but at least no longer...
