What Blu-Ray player are you using.

If it is a Panasonic, on the Blu Ray Player setup, you have to switch OFF Secondary Audio.

Hi Guys

I'm selling off my Yamaha RX-V663. it is one year plus old and is in MINT condition.

The reason I selling it off is because I'm getting another amp.

Please drop me a PM if you are interested.

Thanks

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you very much to all the people who had PMed me.

I have since sold me RX-V663

Thank you for your queries

Take care

Wow so cheap, mind sharing where? The V673 seems like a very good buy, which speaker around 4k to pair with this? thumbup.gif

The Monitor Audio Silver 2 is way below your budget

The Monitor Audio Silver 6 is just over your budget

I'm using an older model Silver 6 with my RX-V1900........ Beautiful...........

guys, which one is worth of pennies in terms of quality and performance between RX A2010 and RX A1020..??
the difference only just RM300.... Any recommendation and suggestion?
*
I believe the A2010 has more wattage (what speakers are you using, the bigger your speaker, more wattage is require[rule of thumb])

The 1020 have the 4K pass thru and Airplay feature (allows you to use your Android or iPhone as remote)

Hope this help

Dear sifus,
I have yammie rx-430 and connected an active sub (just bought used unit yesterday).
During stereo playback there is a bass from the sub. My question is this normal?
I thought the sub only gives out LFE (the .1 signal) during 5.1 movie only. Maybe I have to change some setting?
Appreciate the sharing!
Cheers, TH.

Have you tried manually switch you Yamaha amp to Stereo mode?...

Not sure if this is available on the RX-430, or switch to pure direct mode?

Hope this helps

Hi Mov & ktek,
I meddled with the speaker settings last night and managed to get the sub to play only during 5.1 movie. I changed the LFE mode to 'SWFR' instead of 'BOTH'.
I changed the main + center speaker to 'Large'. It seems like changing from 'Small' to 'Large' and vice-versa does affect the sound...maybe I'm using a bookshelf type?!
(note: funny I have owned this unit like 7-8yrs now and only now had the change to understand those speakers setting inside)

I'm now using OFC rca cable (those use for ICE installation) and wondering if these type will cause my system to "kaput" or not?  hmm.gif

Cheers!

Erm... what brand of speakers are you using and how many ohm are they? (Should be stated on a label and the back of the speakers)

Hi Mov,
I'm using tannoy mercury @ 8ohms, 6" woofer (8ohms at amp setting). Using them mostly for music but with movie once in a while. I guess with this small driver would not give much difference.
Cheers!

At 8 ohm, you should be fine

Enjoy

next year upprgade may be.. what type of center speaker for 2K and below...? blush.gif

Well, with that kinda budget, you are actually spoil for choice...

Please audition the following

Mission MX1

Mission MX2

Monitor Audio Silver Center

They have very "different" sound signature. It really boils down to what kinda sound you are into.

I have used both these type of speakers on my Yamaha amp and they both produce "good" (very subjective) sound.

You can audition the Missions at CMY and the Monitor Audio at Acostique System (Amcorp Mall)

Hope this helps

Anybody here use this Yamaha NS-B160 surround speaker? How do u guys mount this on the wall? Any recommendation for the wall mount bracket that can fit to this particular speaker? thanks.. [attachmentid=3922214][attachmentid=3922215]

The Brackets are on the speaker, above the speaker cable jack. Think hanging a clock... You need to buy screws that will fit the bracket screw holes.

Thanks guys... is it ok for surround speaker to mount directly on the wall behind seating position n facing the opposite wall (TV)? Or is it a must to mount with an angle as shown in image below?
[attachmentid=3923079]

If this is the situation, anybody know where to buy adjustable side clamp wall mount bracket such as this one, other than jalan pasar? I've been there but couldnt find one..
[attachmentid=3923084]

Theory is, if you have hang it at listening height, you are fine. If you are willing to get bracket to tilt the speakers, that is fine as well. Please note though, new speaker brackets tend to want to you permanently screw your speaker to the bracket... which is something I am not willing to do...

Acoustique Systems in Amcorp mall has all sort of affordable speaker brackets.

Wah... which Yamaha do you have sitting in your store room as backup? You know moisture can cause damage to the amp right. You might as well donated it for a worth cause (eg. people who cannot afford good stuff) so it does not spoil... laugh.gif
