Yay, it's V2.
I might be setting up a 2nd HT system using my 1800. A bit sayang to sell it off since it is a good avr. |

QUOTE(jchong @ Sep 19 2009, 11:04 AM) Added on September 19, 2009, 11:11 am For Pure Direct / Pure Audio, sometimes the AVR can use the LFE channel if you choose the 5.1 audio track (this will depend on your AVR brand). Like when I listen to Michael Buble BD, if I choose the 5.1 audio and use Pure Audio I will get some LFE (but the same as if I turn off Pure Audio). so denon and onkyo does output LFE on Pure audio. |

Added on September 20, 2009, 1:16 pm QUOTE(moomoos @ Sep 20 2009, 09:37 AM) yes broither, have tried pure direct/audio on movies and concerts also too, for my case the sonics is very good too ( have to set the LFE out to SWR & MAIN) but still missing the feel of something ( bottom end ) AS i say the LFE is not activated, still why yammy disable this feature Bro, I thought pure direct/audio is for 2 channel listening only minus LFE. If you want LFE, just switch it to stereo. I don't think other brand avr will output LFE when they are in pure direct mode. so denon and onkyo does output LFE on Pure audio.

I don't think other brand avr will output LFE when they are in pure direct mode. In my Onkyo, Pure Audio mode can utilise the other channels if your source material is multi channel. So if I enable 5.1 audio I will get some LFE and even surround sounds in Pure Audio mode.So what's the benefit of Pure Audio mode then? I believe all the EQ, bass management and other audio processing is turned off. |

In Pure audio mode, av amp just amplifly the sound from the source player, it is best to use this mode to test CD players..in my opinion.

Its really a set back that Yammy AVR disable LFE on pure direct (yammy term) pure audio ( onkyo & maybe others )as far as i know Denon does activate LFE, Yes pure direct is mainly for CD playback ( to maintain the purest audio path like normal Amps) bypassing AVR's DSP, even the display will dim off completely, ( try it out , you really get better separation, depth, ) it is.... a totally another level of listening pleasure yammy does do pure direct on multichannels too, it will just bypass all processing and output to respective speakers.. not bad tho.. in fact if you use True HD, DTS HD/MA modes you are also using unprocessed modes (as compared to DSP concert. movie theather, Hall ) signals are also bypassed but amplified in a different way, ( its the exact soundfield the recording engineers/directors wanted us to hear) so if you want to use pure direct mode on yammy (unless yammy engineers rectify it) make sure you go with Floorstand or fullrange speakers for your mains, or otherwise if you use satellites pair it with an additional sub. those ppl who are not that audiophile fussy, just use stereo, or straight mode, you will be very happy with the sound This post has been edited by moomoos: Sep 20 2009, 05:18 PM |

If u have good CDP then Pure Direct really bring out the excellence in 24-bit CD. It's like comparing BD and DVD.
