you should compare the V663 with SR606


*
Any comments on SR606,maybe compare to RV861,someone here offer new one 2.1k,expensive? AQ?

OT : What about Marantz SR4001,price arround 1.3k,but i saw HDMI in only 1.1v,so what kind of surround i can get? (from BDs/PS3)

thanks in advance biggrin.gif

My 663 not detachable how to upgrade sad.gif

Can,cut out a small hole on the rear plate,install a female power plug at the casing,done.Another option is take out the ori power cable from the mainboard,resolder it with a good cable to replace the old one.Put the new power cord out through the original power cord "hole",solder a female power plug on the new cable.( No kidding,we used to do that on CD player ) biggrin.gif

tested 1800 with MA BR2(front/surround) and MA center spk last nite at "jwyj" place (thanks jwyj for his cheese cake and drinks thumbup.gif ).I 'm quite suprise the bookshelf BR2 actually produce " boleh tahan " mid bass.However,i found need to crank 1800 to about 5db volume to bring out better performance of BR2.Could be much better if can get a power amp to maximize the full potential of BR2.(oledi suggest to bring my POA-T10 to test test thumbup.gif )

anyway,i'm sure the overall performance soon will be much more BETTER after getting the sub from htkaki next week,waiting waiting... drool.gif

haha,nasib i not yet kena suspect,i also from Sarawak tongue.gif

law1777,sunauto is beleive to be a RAT for buying BDs from bro Tun Mega previously,dunno oledi 100% confirm.The story is like HongKong Movie " Infernal Affair",got "story inside story",if u are really interested,i think u have to trace back another BD thread which was > 100 pages if not mistaken ( got ending oledi? ) or change version?

another thing,that someone who claim he's sanauto's brother avtually juz kidding and he was mentioned other guy brain damage,not u tongue.gif He's not the "real" RAT's brother,juz main2 only,i bought some BDs from him b4 and i beleive he is a GOOD guy smile.gif

I ve tried using Samsung BDP1400 to bitstream to my 1800. Compared to my PS3, not much of a difference other than slightly better PQ and those magic words lighting up on 1800 display panel.
*
bitstream to 1800 and let it upscale ? What about AQ,suppose to be better using bitstream and let 1800 decode th signal,right?

OT a bit,htkaki,did u read my sms regarding the HDMI cables?

i was told tannoy spekaer and mission speaker are not match with Yamaha Amp, is that true?
for me,i dun think it's true,how to judge they are match or not? it's like matching a couple,some say they are well match but sure some will say they are not,i still trust u urself should audit the Yamaha/Tannoy/Mission see if u like them rolleyes.gif
