Totally dead, not even a faint click or blinking lamp when you try to power it up?

No response whatsoever..

[markcrenz]

Could be anything from faulty standby circuit to dead microprocessor.

I'm currently using the RX-V575 and thinking of upgrading to a unit with Dolby Atmos, any recommendation?

And do you think it would be worth it even if my place is not acoustically treated?

Much appreciated.

Ok. Still haven't had the chance to look at it, unfortunately. Can I bring this back to Listen Up? Bought this from them... Need to know how much it will cost to repair, if they will/can repair it. Thanks.

Need to consult with the experts here please--

Yamaha RX-A550 or  Yamaha RX-V479BL ?

The Aventage is just 50 USD more than the RX-V479BL (399 vs 349 US Dcurrently in Amazon).

Which one to get? I dont plan to get the high-end speakers. Only looking to spend probably 25 K tops for the 5.1 speaker set.

Thank you.

Visited Listen Up in Glorietta. The technician there advised me to just bring my avr to 5th Avenue in Glorietta 5, since that is what they usually do. Couldn't even answer my questions as to how much it will cost and how long it will take. Visited 5th Avenue after that - the person I talked to said to just bring the avr to their shop. It will take about 3 - 4 weeks for them to diagnose and/or repair the unit. When asked about the cost, they don't know yet. Oh well. 

I'm now thinking whether to buy another 5.1 avr, or buy 2nd hand...
In case I wont be able to find the same avr, since I know lumang model na sya - What's a good replacement, since buhay pa naman yun speakers ng Yamaha ko (NSP110)?

Appreciate any advice...

If budget permit get rx-a1050 dolby atmos na yan.

Thanks. Will this work with my current speakers? Was eyeing the Denon and Onkyo when I was in Listen Up. Both 5.1 only, and about 15K or less.

Ano ba speaker mo sir? Denon is good choice also.

[Jun_P]

The one set that came with the RX-V357 avr when I bought it back in 2007 from Listen Up - NSP110.
Based on reviews I checked on the internet, mukhang kakayanin naman. Tama ba?

I think it's better to upgrade na rin sir yong speaker nyo.

[Bionic DJ]

is the RX-A1050 available locally now? how much kaya?

[Jun_P]

I think it's better to upgrade na rin sir yong speaker nyo.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unless masira ang speakers, stick muna ako dun

Ano speakers ok imatch sa Yamaha Aventage A820? Mainly used for HT and Gaming. Wala munang surrounds.. I have nowhere to put it kasi sa condo..Im looking at

PSB Imagine XB/X1T and XC
B&W 685S2/684 and HTM 61 S2
Q Acoustics 3020/3050 and 3090c

I've already auditioned all of them but until now ang hirap parin magdecide.. there's a moment where Im leaning towards B&W then PSB then B&W again..

Narinig ko Q acoustics maganda rin tumunog..and way cheaper..

Thank you guys!

[zram18]

my vote goes to Yamaha-PSB setup. 

[Icermad]

I was able to audition the X2T on music only but wasnt able to compare it with X1T. X2T sounded awesome on music playback IMO. Big sound stage and awesome bass

[Icermad]

Nice..btw Besides spectra.. sino pa nagcacarry ng PSB speakers? Parang sa iba wala sila nung new imagine series e..

If I add a power amp ba will it make a lot of difference?
