Question - I sometimes see amplifiers described as Class A, B, C etc. What does this mean?

Mahaba-habang explanation yan. Best if si pareng Wiki ang initailly mag-explain:

mga sir saan ba pwede magpagawa ng receiver pioneer vsx528 (european model) need ko yung pwede mag service sa bahay. i just bought my receiver recently mga October last year. and mga almost 20 days ko pa lang nagagamit dahil kararating ko lang ng pinas. 3 days ago ng makaranas ako ng nawala yung sounds ng receiver ko while watching movie, natira na lang yung sound na galing sa tv. and about 7 to 10 minutes tumunog ulit. now the same problem ulit mga about an hour ko gamit tumigil na naman.. medyo matagal bago tumunog (30min) on and off ginawagawa ko pindot sa remote and kung anu-anu pa. then tumunog nga after 30 min. kaso pahinto hinto yung lumalabas na sounds. and pahinga ulit then test balik na naman sa normal.

gusto ko rin pagawa sa service center ng pioneer kaso mas prefer ko sa bahay gagawin..

second receiver ko na ito ng pioneer yung isa since 1995 pa until now gumagana pa kaso nga walang hdmi kaya need ko na mag upgrade. thanks po sa makakatulong.

could be just a glitch. try resetting the unit.

jitzon25 · « **Reply #1024 on:** Apr 24, 2014 at 12:14 PM »

sir same parin after ko ni-reset need na seguro ng tech. na magaling.. parang gusto ko na nga itapon eh diko magamit bukas..

@jitzon25: Try other HDMI sources, movies and cables to rule out HDMI compatibility issues. Force AVR input to HDMI rather than Auto so it does not search the other audio inputs. Good luck.

salamat sir sa mga tips pero wala talaga.. lemon talaga yung nabili kong avr!

jitzon25 · « **Reply #1027 on:** Apr 26, 2014 at 12:47 PM »

after updating firmware, hdmi and analog connection and using ipod or ipad connection.. still not working lumala na! di na makatapos ng 1 song wala ng sounds lumalabas. pero lahat ng function sa unit display at tv gumagana.. now im using my ever reliable 1995 series pioneer VSX-D503S . still kicking and roaring thunder..

Good day mga sir, i have a problem on my konzert av502a suddenly stops outputting sounds, i had to maximize the volume to hear a sound, and that sound is very weak, bass not heard, parang tunog cellphone lang nilalabas, di nadin umiilaw ung led nang speakers ko (konzert 655 600w) nung huling gamit ko nito ok pa (last week). Tried replacing the rca cable and interchanging speaker cables but still same results occur, Any opinions about this. TIA!!

Planning to buy my first amp and saw a Pioneer set (including 5.1 speakers +sub) for around 35k. Any cheaper alternatives for a complete set like this?

zram18 · « **Reply #1034 on:** Aug 07, 2015 at 07:00 PM »

another future victim of pioneer todoroki 5.1 home theater set ,hehe.

MovieJunkie · « **Reply #1035 on:** Aug 08, 2015 at 12:19 PM »

It wasn't a Todoroki set, as explained by the tech rep. And I don't intend to be one, which explains my query.

zram18 · « **Reply #1036 on:** Aug 08, 2015 at 12:24 PM »

my apology sir, i wrongly assumed its the pioneer todoroki set priced also at 35k coz my my newbie friend bought the todoroki set before and he regret buying it.

Sir Jim,

I also have a Yamaha receiver, gumamit na ako dati ng HDMI splitter kasi 3 display kinabit ko, 1 Projector, 1 42 Inches TV and 1 24 Inches LCD para pag nanonood ang son ko ng non stop cartoons.

Bale yung splitter nakakabit sa HDMI 1 nung Yammy, yung PJ sa HDMI 2. Nakakabit sa SPlitter yung 42 Inches and 24 inch LCD.

Ok naman sya, no issue..

Meron din HDMI selector where you select which device you want to "output" your data though you have to double check kasi majority of them are not 4k capable.

Yung passive most likely di gagana or magloloko. Read this sa feedback sa mga bumili ng passive splitters sa Lazada.

copy powered hdmi

epson 3010 + yamaha avantage 800 1080p
