Salamat po sa input! yung sales kasi sa pioneer di daw adivsable gamitan ng magic sing and the likes kasi daw yung feedback na na-create nakakasira ng speakers. sakto naman wala pa ako nababasang gumamit ng magic sing so naisip ko baka nga nakakasira.

anyhow, salamat po ulit... wala naman pala problema.

regards,
eymard

Masakit sa tenga ang feedback. Depende sa volume kung makakasira. Di advisable because you have cheaper options naman. Pero i don't mind naman.

Ano po ba normal operating temperature ng mga AV Receivers mga master? Specifically sa Pioneer VSX-1021-K... Wala po kasi aircon dito. Tapos 12PM - 2PM, so ang init2x... LOL.

Sabi ni Master Nelson eh okay lang daw ang walang A/C. Safe yan ng continuous use maski 35 deg C. ambient temperature and 85% relative humidity.

Pero pag nakita mo ang chiller ni Master Nelson, mahihiya ang MOA at Megamall.

I see... Normal pa lang to. Hehehe. Lagyan ko na lang ng electric fan sa susunod. Haha.

Mayron na naman akong problem mga boss. Ngayon pa lang ako naka try nito.

Na set ko na yung Bluray player ko from PCM to Bitstream (Audiophile). Dolby and DTS files sound okay. Pero pag play ko ng Transformers at Eagles concert (both in DTS format), choppy po ang sound. Pero pag play ko sa computer, okay lang.

Help me po... Thanks!

Im currently using VSX-521K as my receiver and Im planning to upgrade, ok ba na may upgrade ako to 821K or 1021K or higher na model na? wala ba gaanong significance pagdating sa audio/video quality ang 521 vs 821? thanks

If you can stretch your budget a bit more, get the vsx1121. Although it's not great for music(reference is integrated amps) , it's very good in movies and video processing is amazing. I have it for 2 months and i am enjoying it.

BTW, VSX-1121 is identical to the Elite 52 except that the price is lower by $250.

They're not the same, look at the specs of 1122 downgraded na naman this year at parang 1021 lang yong specs ng 1122.

Parang sa food business lang yan, lumiliit yung serving. People vote with their wallets eh, lalo na ngayon at tough economic times.

Kung puro high end ang binibili ng mga tao, I'm sure pataas ng pataas ang spec at price ng mga binebenta ng makers.

Dapat bro. wais mga buyer na dapat tinitignan yong specs bago bilhin.

Based on the pics below kitang-kita yong difference ng 1121 vs. 1122.

Pioneer VSX-1121 110watts 31 lbs.

Pioneer SC-1222 Class D amps 120 watts 31 lbs. Current model

Pioneer Elite 52 110 watts 31 lbs (same specs as the 1121, same everything except for Elite badge & $250 price difference)

Pioneer VSX-1122 90 watts 22 lbs.

Pioneer VSX-1021 90 watts 22 lbs.

good to know. so para sa mga may planong mag upgrade check the specs pala ang rule of thumb instead of just following the model line.

Stagea · « **Reply #882 on:** Jul 11, 2012 at 10:07 PM »

In short, SC-1222 or SC-1522 daw dapat ang bilhin ng may mga budget for 2012.

My Yamaha RX-V420 is due for replacement. Is the Pioneer VSX-522K already available here in the Philippines? I tried asking shops in malls but not available yet.

i'm sure malapit na yan kaya bagsak presyo na yung last generation of pioneer amps. maybe they're just "hoarding" up a bit longer to see if they can dispose of the '21 series as much as they can

Hows the performance of MCACC?

nice canned response.
Its amazing how your reading comprehension has failed.
If your going to troll this isn't the place to do it there are sited dedicated for that.
like 4chan and spares us from your stupidity and go there.
I expected a more mature response than some of the posters here.

Non of your links show what mcacc does or how it preforms.

I'm looking for someone who has experience mcacc perform first hand. how good is it vs Audessey.

I have a Pioneer 1021 and the MCACC feature does it's job decently. The distance between the speakers and calibration mic was virtually correct. But I did a manual calibration based on my preference. I haven't tried other receivers' calibration features. Btw, I'm just using fronts and center speakers.

then don't buy it if your hesitant. Reading reviews will not always the answer.

no spoonfeed here in PDVD , take time to read it by yourself and then decide

warmaster is not a troll here. I'm not his friend as here as well but i believe he has some good points. Using google as your friend. Take your time using it. I did not even bother reading the link he provided you.

MCACC will be fair good since your in the PIONEER thread.

Just buy receiver that is not/none hesistant to buy

i'm no troll but if you managed to read between the lines, whathifi should have pointed out that the inadequacy of MCACC to EQ the sub as a as "Against". but since there was no mention of it, should mean that it wasn't an issue

The advanced phase control and 3 parametric notch filters on top of the typical graphic EQ offers quite some control over room and placement issues. The fact that you can manually override each setting makes it very customizable (even without a pro kit).

It does lack in the subwoofer equalization department because it uses 1 octave spacing for its acoustic calibration. The lowest GEQ band falls at 63Hz, which isn't low enough for many room/sub issues. What makes up for this is the notch filters that it can apply on the 3 most dominant standing waves (and this can handle peaks between 16Hz and 1kHz). That essentially controls the most prevalent room issues.

This solution won't deliver a response as clean as Audyssey MultEQ XT or XT32, but it's probably superior to MultEQ overall.

I have heard the LX53 connected to Polk Audio RTi A7 and CSi A6, we used that to test my Klipsch Subs and it sounded awesome playing Battle Los Angels.. Also used that in playing Concert materials and ang ganda nang performance nya...
