Any good network AV for just listening to music. Thanks all sifu for the recommendation.

For casual listening just a simple receiver will do. If you are serious music listening, network av or any avr is not going to be good

One of my tweeter started to leak sound too
[attachmentid=9828698]

as u see from the pix, my speaker is a full range speaker, a 3-way 4-speaker system.
it have the following spec

Impedance: 6 OHMS
Frequence Respondse: 32 Hz - 20 kHz
Sensitivity: ±89 2dB/W/M
Recommended Amplifires: 20 - 250 Watts

the prob is... i do not know which tweeter to choose...
the mix and match is not for forte...

and i only use the system for movie... not music

---

ps: if i notice some frequency is missing on one speaker... does it mean my crossover is faulty also?

Why not just get a pair of used speaker to replace your current

You're right. The look of the X2400h from behind is so cheapo. Like RM1k AV receiver. Simply nothing. I cannot accept because I was using Yamaha V3067. But last week it just went dead after a pop sound. Not sure if I should revive it since it does not support 4k. I feel Yamaha sounding too bright with Jamo speaker. So I plan to try out Marantz.

Better to try out denon. Marantz is pretty much a subsidiary of denon

But Marantz got HDAM which is essential for my music listening. Why you pick Denon asides from being mother company?

Practically marantz uses majority of the technology from denon and tune it down

That I am not sure. Generally denon is the high end and marantz is value for money

I heard Marantz is warmer so it’s better for audiophile.  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

Most people will say marantz is nicer for music. Audiophile won’t use avr for music

Hi guys, I have a set HTS Pioneer HTP-820SW and thinking for an new replacement due to the limitation of HDMI compatibility.

Just wondering the 5.1 speakers which 7 years old worth to reuse on new AV receiver? Unsure the lifespan of old speakers set and whether it will produce bad audio quality compare to new set of speaker.

About the AV receiver? Any recommended brand and model worth to go for? The purpose of AV mainly for movie and MP3 music only.

The speaker won’t work with receiver. Just get the cheapest receiver you can find will do for your purpose

You means Pioneer HTZ or Pioneer HTP?
The speakers of HTP can match with other brand receiver?

I planned to replace Pioneer VSX-820 with Yamaha RX-V485 but reuse the Pioneer HTP speakers. Possible for this?

My bad. I thought those htib type speaker. Than just get a cheap receiver will do the job

some how I find the stereo set up have better audio dialogues than the LCR, maybe its just me, or I have cheapo speakers

Is how you position, calibrate and your amp. This is just few example. Many more can cause the effect. If you feel stereo sound better than something is not correctly done

Possible of just placing it wrongly. Sometimes placing like inside cabinet or below cabinet which cause the problem.

Hey SSJBEN,

Does the upgrade to SB2000 gives significant improvement in sound in your opinion and ears? Other than it being just loud.
*
My experience with SVS so far had always been great from each upgrade of the models. I started off with the PC12-NSD. Than move to single PB13 and than dual PB13. Each time of the upgrade give good result not just about loudness but the bass quality gets better. Currently is using PB16 and SB16 mix. So far this is the best combo for me. Have all the rumble also the punch. The bass is a lot but very well controlled. This something only your ear will tell. There is no way to proper express the feel

can anyone please recommend me an avr below RM 3,000, thinking of pairing it with the Q acoustic (a pair 3050i and the 3090ci centre speaker) as my main speaker with the TV after my home is fully renovated.

Does anyone come across with the q acoustic speaker before or please recommend me some other options for speaker, butget at 6k without the avr.

a lot to learn since im a newbie in this area, i came across this speaker by googling, those reviewers gave them alot of stars.
Summary, Please recommend
1. Speaker Set below 6k, some ppl recommend me to get (a pair 3050i and the 3090ci centre speaker) RM 5.4k, the rest can upgrade and top up later if budget allows.

2. AVR below 3k, does not know what is the main purpose of AVR, jus they told me its a must.
3. Usage: Mainly for a mixed of both music and movie( netflix and Football) in living room.

*** Looking for something future proof, can support wifi, bluetooth, spotify .
*
Q acoustic is a fantastic speaker. Beat lots of other speakers easily. Yamaha or Denon are the best bet for avr. There is no better with either is what kind of sound you enjoy. For more natural sound than go with Yamaha. For more dynamic sound than Denon. Anyway you are watching streaming only. Won’t matter too much

Should we be worried if the speaker or subwoofer written on the back "Made In China" even tho it's a branded set?

I won’t worry about it. Or you prefer like Yamaha is 100% made in Malaysia

Is it worth to upgrade bookshelf speaker with 5.25" 65Hz -3dB to bookshelf speaker 6.5" 45Hz -3dB? Does the -20Hz difference have big impact on perceived bass?

Go as big as possible

Hi guys, glad to have found this forum that talks about something that I need help on smile.gif

I have a set of old home theater fr Sony but the receiver is already faulty not worth to repair. Thought of using the speakers (subs and 5 speakers) for good use. It uses wireless (I think infrared front and back to send audio signal to the back surround).

Any idea how I can use them? Only worry is its infrared is proprietary and I can't use them for any type of receivers?

Any suggestion would be much appreciated smile.gif

Better buy new

I'm looking at the Denon x3500H receiver and I'm a bit confused as to where should I wire my Zone 2 speakers? Zone 2 is in another room, do I need like an amplifier for that? Or could I just wire it into one of the Surround Back speaker ports?
*
You wire it back to the port that label zone 2
