Topic: ONKYO AVR

[javauser]

i'm using an old pioneer dv-535K. and i'm playing an original gladiator dvd. i am not sure if this is progressive scan though. by the way, here's my set up.

dvd to onkyo via component video.
onkyo to tv via hdmi.

it says in the manual that

"For optimal video performance, thx recommends that video signals pass through the system without upconversion (e.g. component video input through to component video output)."

Labo naman. kaya nga cinonnect sa onkyo para sa upconversion e.

[gaol]

Instead of via component video, have you tried connecting the DVD player to the Onkyo via HDMI but setting the input setting at 480i? Then from the Onkyo to the TV via HDMI also. That might do the trick.

Ah, yes, the old pioneer player will not have HDMI. Try component video from player to Onkyo, then HDMI from Onkyo to the TV, and Monitor Out setting to HDMI.

my understanding of the reco is that the signal going into the onkyo should be without upconversion meaning 480i not even p, because doing a 480p means the signal has been through deinterlacing already. but looking at the net, it seems the 535 is not a progressive scan capable player. so it should be pumping out 480i signals.

can you try the 1080i signal, since the 807 can upconvert to 1080i through component. and see how the picture looks.

teka guys. what should the picture quality look like ba? should it like an hd torrent download?

[javauser]

maybe i'm so used to hd content already that dvd looks bad na. di kaya?

[gaol]

It's possible. The 720p and 1080p mkv and other HD files are closer in quality (in fact sometimes indistinguishable from) to blu-ray than DVD. DVD images will not as look as good.

nope it wont look like that. although those jack sparrows dvd9 dvds looks way better than those old original dvds. imho.

[pekspert]

this is the model that i want to get, may i know how much you got it?

[volrathj]

Guys sorry my bad namali pala ako ng kabit ng speakers. I connected it to the surround L and right. Ni connect ko na siya sa Surround speakers at the back of onkyo 607. Okay na siya. Kapag ni select ko dolby digital nag surround na wuhoo!

[ayosbathere]

hi guys,

just got my onkyo tx-nr807! i'm reading the manual and it says

"don't connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. doing so may damage the a/v receiver"

paano ito? e yung speaker wire ko 2 wires per cable. di ko alam ano tawag dun. basta isa "red-green" tapos ung isa naman "black-white".

help!

Bi-wire ata tawag dyan... pwede yan sa AVR mo. +/- pa ring yong e connect mo sa AVR mo then sa speaker HF (+/-) and LF (+/-)

I assume ganito wire mo http://www.tm3connections.com/productimages/display/SS-image-2009-11-15-4afffd3f58be6.jpg

im using a Onkyo 607, mas maganda pa rin blu-ray syempre, pero to maximize the DVD,  its recommended to use DVD players with upscaling capabilities, then connecting it via HDMI

Finally bought the first few pieces of my HT. Had to maintain a certain budget thats why i had to sacrifice a bit on the entry levels. LG LH35 TV, Onkyo 307 reciever, LG BD 307 Blu ray player, Wharfes 9.4 for fronts and Wharfe CS9 for center. Next month na sub and surrounds at max na card ko :'(. But I can't complain about the performance... meet my new toys...






Thanks to PDVD for introducing me to this very DEMANDING... hehe hobby. But in the end its all worth it you cannot quantify SATISFACTION AND HAPPINESS... until SARS ATTACKS hehe.

For now i will just enjoy my new toys and hope to complete the cast real soon.

[TOY 01]

Congrats sa new toy niyo. Sir parang naka harang ng konti yun center dun sa tv.

[wacksy1021]

Salamat pare. Oo nga eh, thinking of having something under para tumaas ng konti yung TV. Kaso inaalala ko naman baka matumba pa siya pang nilagyan ko sa baba eh. Di na kasi kaya sa mismong rack and wala pa pambili din ng bago hehe.

Will think of something to do medyo eye sore nga siya eh.

Thanks again.

[okidok]

Ganda! Puede siguro wall mount nalang ang LCD.

[wacksy1021]

Thanks. Di pa kasi ako makapag wall mount kasi we just rent our place and Idont want to riun the walls baka magalit ang may ari hehe.

Also sayang lang ang wall mount tapos pag lilipat ay babaklasin din. Saving the wall mount till we settle on something on our own.

[jerix]

Bro ganda new toys mo! try to experiment -- medyo pag layuin mo pa ang mga front speakers mo to achieve better effects...

[SETSUT]

@ wackys1021 pareho po tayo ng TV LG 32LH35 din akin kakabili ko lang kay boss Vic last last week. Hehehe... Balak ko din po bumili ng ganyang setup na audio. Magakano po kuha mo sa ONKYO mo?

Good for you ShogdGreat. The TV is great for its price. Onkyo reciever is at PhP15300 cash. Plus 10% for 6 months and plus 15% for 12 months. I think sir Vic gives the same prices.

Hi Guys!
I need your expertise on calibrating my 607.
My Setup: ts-xr607, Polk Audio TSi200(Bi-Amp),TSi100,CS10,PSW110

My current settings(By Audessy+min adjustments)
Speaker Config : Sub = Yes, Front = 40hz, Center = 40hz, Surround = 40hz, LPF = 80hz
Speaker Distance (ft): Sub = 10, L/R = 9, Center = 9, Surround L/R= 4
Level Calibration : Sub = -15db, L/R = -6db, Center = -8db, Surround L/R= -8db

Is there something wrong with my settings?
The bass doesn't work when playing audio cd using Pure Direct and other presets.
When watching  movies , i need to crank the volume to 45 to get descent bass..


Thanks!

[ennzo]

mga onkyo masters meron lang ako noob question....hope someone will answer

meron po ako onkyo TX-SR-507 together with the speakers na kasama niya.. ask ko lang if pwede ba ako gumamit ng banana plugs for both the amplifier and speaker to interconnect? thanks in advance hope someone will shed a light on this matter..

yes you can use banana plugs to terminate the speaker ends of your speakers as long as it will fit the terminals of your amp and speakers properly.

i think the pure direct will only make use of your 2 ch. speakers. left and right speakers only.

try to crank-up the bass and treble adjustment.
