Does anyone have any idea if the upcoming 2023 Sony AVRs will be available in Malaysia?

For sure Sony Malaysia won't be bringing them in... just wondering if the home theater shops will (or if they are able to)

Very seriously considering getting the Yamaha RX-A6A very soon... but I actually prefer the Sony STR-AZ5000ES

whats the pros of STR over RX models that you have stated?

If I wait for this year's KLIAV show would there be any chance of a change? (e.g. someone becoming a distributor of these AVRs)

I know I am grasping at straws here...
*
the distributor doesnt takes in new brand just because of KLIAV.. sony is complicated as they have their brand rooted in malaysia with malaysia registered company unlike the other brand like Denon, Marantz that needs to be imported under distributorship.. if these set of AVR were to arrive i believe very likely it will be imported by Sony (Sony Electronic Malaysia Sdn Bhd) themselves.. i dont recall sony was part of KLIAV by a brand of their own

Hi, I just bought Denon x2800h, where can I enable dolby atmos height virtualization? I can't find this option in the settings.
*
check under your surround parameter:


Speaker Virtualizer
The Speaker Virtualizer enhances the surround and height speaker channels to create an enveloping virtual surround effect.

On
(DeĀ­fault):

EnĀ­ables ā€œSpeaker VirĀ­tuĀ­alĀ­izerā€.

Off:

DisĀ­ables ā€œSpeaker VirĀ­tuĀ­alĀ­izerā€.

You can set this when the sound mode is ā€œDolby Atmosā€, ā€œDolby Surroundā€ or sound mode that has ā€œ+Dolby Surroundā€ in the sound mode name.

Usable when not using height, ceiling or Dolby Atmos Enabled speakers, or when not using surround speakers.

Audio is not output from the surround back speaker if ā€œSpeaker Virtualizerā€ is set to ā€œOnā€ when ā€œSpeaker Configurationā€ - ā€œSurround Backā€ is set to ā€œ1 spkrā€ in the menu.

Guys —
I upgraded my amp to v6a about a year ago and now want to replace my LCR. Current mains are Yamaha NS series. Looking at Klipsch RP-8000F II (L/R) and Klipsch RP-504C (centre). Any experience with this combo? Will the RP-8000F II pair well with the v6a for movies/music (sensitivity/tonality)? Any suggestions for better LCR alternatives in similar price/feel?
Cheers.
*
no experience with the combo but into Klipsch likely will get brighter treble with its horn tweeter but not sure with NS series u r using assuming that its NS-200.. that is a 3 way speaker compare to klipsch 2 way speaker.
might lose some frequency seperation advantage that you got from NS

in general your v6a should be able to drive klipsch. You may expect
1) brighter treble
2) bassier low
3) louder at the same vol point

My AV Receiver is Sony STRDA-3500ES and is paired with first gen Acoustic Energy AE120 floorstanders, AE107c centre speaker and Wharfedale active sub with Astro decoder and Smart LED TV as sources. The floorstanders are tri-wired and the rear speaker outputs of my AV Receiver are set to handle the low frequencies of the floorstanders.

My Sony receiver sometime will switch off automatically and cannot be controlled via the remote control. Hope to hear opinions here whether, I should look for repair for my AV receiver or upgrade to used AV Amplifier like Denon X3000. Budget is RM1,000. Or should I save more money to buy Yamaha RXV-385 I see on Lazada about RM1,6xx

Looks like your AVR is switching itself into protection mode? What was the pattern like long time loud playing (units get hot) and get off by itself or upon start then it turn off automatically?

would you be able to share what do you mean by floorstanders are tri-wired ?
