danok chicken factory direct can be easily arranged:) but receivers no lubang... i dont see many onkyo 805 or 875 owners talking abt lip sync problem in malaysia .. wonder y overseas forum all complaining.. most ppl say in 1.07and 1.08 firmware SHOULD solve the lip sync problem... i am quite worried when they use the word SHOULD.. onkyo owners out there can shed some light ma? splee8868 can u help since u r using the latest firmware

does any1 know how to set the lfe to below 80hz.. or the lowest is 80hz.. is there anyway to go around it?

oh dont know if i asked the right question earlier.. what i meant was how do i set the subwoofer channel low pass to below 80hz.. for onkyo 875 the lowest i can go is 80hz.. i am not sure i did it the right way but i couldnt adjust any lower than 80hz

ok thanx

i am new to avr and also a lazy bugger thats y i try to get my answer here heheh... if i set my speakers hi pass to 60hz,subwoofer low pass 60hz and avr sub low pass to 80hz i still dont get the sound from 61 to 80hz for my speakers?

i think like u said if the subwoofer channel uses a normal crossover then no problem but not sure abt all this high tech avr

okok kamsiah for your tolong

vely nice

bro 1.09 was the latest the last time i checked... anyway i bought it at least 1 month ago n it was 1.08.. we r supposed to get the official latest firmware for 875 sold in malaysia, this is what harvey norman salesman claimed coz he said 875 is made in malaysia.. maybe u should ask the salesman to send it to update for u since they sold a faulty unit to u the 1st time.. n not up to date firmware the 2nd time..

i have similar setup with u.. have no issues with handshake... but my optoma bulb pauchah after only sleeping with onkyo in the same room for two days.. maybe optoma n onkyo just dont love each other

mine is sony78h to 875 to optoma hd65.. like u said i do notice a significant diff in pic quality with onkyo reon chip.. but i havent done a blind test to find out whether that is true.. maybe my mind is forcing me to say reon is good after paying so much for it hehe

ya managed to get the replacement within 4days!!!.. impressed with optoma and hiway laser's service.. but am worried abt my 875 now after finding out your 875 faulty...

bro y not bring your xbox n hdmi cable to your fren's place n try out.. then can pin point the problem much easier than us guessing here.. or bring his xbox to your place.. i dont think there many many xbox users here who use 705 so its harder to guess here...

But what if the LFE on a non-THX disc also contains 80-120Hz frequency range, wouldn't there be a gap if we set the low pass on the sub at 80Hz? Or, would the sub redirect 80-120Hz back to the main speakers using line out? If that is so then it should be fine.

y not post your question there and see what chris said. i mean whether there is a gap or not.. and then let us know too pls

maybe blt is bridged mode.. tomorrow check the manual for u

just wondering the two new 875 owners bought silver or black?.. i bought the balck 1 n i think its extremely ugly.. looks like those 80's amplifiers.. saw the silver 875 when i collected mine n it was much nicer

here if u label it as a 'gift', chances r u have to give them a 'gift' too:)

brunei going into miri very easy izt?.. if thailand into malaysia u can bring almost anything:)

what i meant was does the custom really check your car when u come into malaysia

i carried mine alone from the car to my ht room (tingkat2).. n had to do it quickly coz my wife was just out of the house for awhile.. did everything in a rush n getting the receiver out alone was hard too.. at the end my wife came home n saw it didnt say anything except its ugly heheh
