Any sifus here using yammy 1900?Still undecided on yammy 1900 or denon 2809/3310.Just call desa kepong and they quote 4K cash for 1900.Also onkyo 806 for 3.6 or 3.7K IIRC.Any opinions?

Onkyo 806 downgrade compare to Onkyo 805 hence also punchy.Yammy rx-v1900 quite good as well as Denon 2809,3 of them have own performance by themself and i suggest that u should go for audition 3 brands as u r mentioned.budget wise depends how much that u willing to spend.

Actually I went to A&L IOI today to test yammy 1900 but got no stock there. The manager ask me to go to Amcorp but today closed. He also recommend NAD 747 which is ard 4K+ and will be coming next month.The manager there Rick is quite nice though.Any other place that I can test 2809?

I was loan a Onkyo TX-SR706 amp to compare with (my RX-V663)

Here is the result

Onkyo TX-SR706 (against the RX-V663)

Pro
3 HDMI port in
Cool blue lights for the volume dial
Tells u what sound format is on (eg DTS, DTS Master, etc) Audio, using the light panel (big lettering)
Audyssey auto set up allows for up to 8 placement (eg to optimise listening position for 8 seatings)
The mid channel shines

Con
Very confusing speaker port (Multi colored?????)
Very weak LFE (even after increasing the volume of the subwoofer)
Doesn't tell you how many channels is the source material (eg 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1)
Surround sound NOT as dynamic as the Yamaha (eg not as Beling Balang as the Yamaha)

result, keeping my Yamaha RX-V663

Looks like if I upgrade my amp, high possibility would be a Yamaha

My two sens worth
