Na-test ko yung Yamaha RX-V467 along with a 5.1 speaker setup na Mordaunt Short. Di ko natanong maiigi anong model ng speakers pero the whole setup was interesting.
Seems na configure ko lang yung HDMI setup ng laptop to play at 5.1 surround eh it played nicely on the reciever. Pansin ko nga lang na on the reciever, I couldn't even cycle through the surround setups. Naka STRAIGHT lang siya.
From the way it looks. CCCP audio codec or maybe even the HDMI configuration of the laptop was responsible for decoding the audio stream and simply instructed yung reciever to play it as 5.1. Honestly wala naman ako masyadong alam sa home theater setup and given na I usually just buy entry level stuff, I am thinking na pwede na siguro ito.
Anyone have suggestions on a build? I am trying to setup a home theater with around only 50k to play with.
