so she would approve you buying EQ1 since it can control sound very well..

I was wondering how come the power supply at the back says 120v~60hz. Is there a power adapter which can be used for Malaysia's 240v?

Was considering buying a unit in the US and bringing it back. I'm assuming the US unit would be the same as the local one? Saw online the prices of the AVR in US is half that which has been quoted to me in Malaysia. Any advice here?

diff region with different voltage ratings lor.. (not multi voltage input)

Err.. but in the photo, the unit was made in Malaysia (see photo) but still had 120v. So wondering if all units are actually 120v and there is a built in power adapter in the power cable..

FYI, AVR made in M'sia...

Onkyo
Integra (Not sold in M'sia)
Yamaha
Pioneer

If i buy amp vsx 819 with SM-S700 for rm2000 is it a bargain??

Please help this poor newbie..

I think u special order the DA2400ES, or the latest DA5400ES with HDMI 6-1

I used to own a DE-598, last time very keng liao, in 1998, with dts ex, DD PL, Sony DSSD....the bass are very good....only sold it becos' need the new HDMI and the HD audio.....

I checked the Sony UK site (since they also using 240V) and errr...Sony AVR mostly 7.1 and 2 channel...5.1 outdated..
Must cost a lot to get!!

You input AV cables from Astro unit to your Pioneer Amp. After that did you plug another set of RCA cables out from the Amp to the TV?

AVR output to LCD using HDMI cable... Wat is RCA cables?... srry... noob question...

you got a 819 and dunno what is RCA?....my...some ppl. have all the luck

RCA is the red and white cables...or more like Red, white and yellow cables

yOu cannot output. Your astro with HDMI. you need to connect the RCA cable to your amp

RCA (Composite) cables are your Yellow,Red,White.

Your 819 Amp probably doesn't convert your Analog video (RCA) to Digital HDMI output to TV. So how you expect to get pic or sound to your TV when you input Analog RCA but no corresponding output to TV .

Maybe buy a higher end AVR, then it might have that feature.

In the meantime get an extra set of analog RCA cable and connect from the Amp to TV . Also select the correct source from the amp (e.g AV1, or AV2 etc). Don't expect the video to be good
