Does anyone know when the new Denon receivers will be release? (Simular to the AVR-4802R). I want to upgrade but I am waiting for the new Denon's that have Dolby Prologic IIx.

WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY PISTOL?? KEEP YOU TRIGGER FINGER OFF THE KEYBOARD UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO SHOOT.

You have the same speaker setup as I do. I love the Yammie but I still think they are harsh on the high frequencies. Have you done anything with the GEQ to tame those bad boys down?

Thanks scrambler400. I checked it out and there was a lot of good information. I've been demoing this receiver for about a month and wanted to get the opinion of others. I have Klipsch Klf-30's and the matchup was very bright. I've toned down the high frequencies quit a bit and it sounds much better. I am giving it the Pepsi Challenge with a Pioneer Elite VSX-55Txi. Sounds nice but it doesn't have onscreen info once you get out of the setup menus. I would have expected much more out of the Elite line than that. My current receiver is a Yamaha DSP-A1 and the matchup between it and my Klf-30's was a perfect fit. The quest is on for a great 7.1 receiver. Anyone have a recommendation on a $2000 unit with great sound and onscreen info for the hard of seeing. Anyway, thanks for the thread.

Has anyone had a chance to listen to this Receiver? It's new, has a lot of great features and power at 120W/ch. And...it retails for $999. Anyone, please jump in if you have an opinion.

I just picked up a Pioneer VSX-55TXi. I can see the setup On-screen display but once I get out of setup, I don't get any on-screen displays. Doesn't this receiver have an on-screen display for volume settings, movie mode, etc? Please help!!! Ken.

Does anyone have a Surround Test and Setup CD for 5.1 that they recommend? I would like one that has a test tone down to 19Hz.

I bought a pair 5 yrs ago... Then bought another pair for rear channel speakers bought 3 yrs ago. They make a great soundfield in 5.1. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Go for the KLF-C7 center channel. I have 2 of those as well and a pair of KSP-S6's. Sometimes you just get a little carried away.

James, I have heard that before so it didn't sound stupid to me. This sub weighs about 100lbs so I was saving that for last.

Thanks for your reply. I've seen your responses to other questions so your opinion is valued. I just wanted to make sure I understood you correctly about the placement in the corner. Place the sub in the corner with the active woofer facing the back wall. Then pull it out about 1 meter from the back wall. Did I understand you correctly? The room I am in is closed on the front and the sides with a french door entering into the room from the rear. So from what you are saying, I shouldn't really have a dead spot...?

I have a RSW-15 sub. I am having a hard time placing it so it hits those low notes. I have it in a corner at a slight angle. The rear firing woofer is about 8 inches from the back wall and it is about 4 inches off the side wall. Any ideas or thoughts? Ken.

It looks like I am in the right place to get some good advice. I have a RSW-15 sub. I am having a hard time placing it so it hits those low notes. I have it in a corner at a slight angle.

Frzninvt,
You should be able to send your unit directly to Denon for repair. I have had to do that with a Sony receiver and a Yamaha as well. Don't waste you time with the Authorized service center. They abviously don't care but Denon should. Good..

GOOD CALL! THAT IS HOW I TOUCH UP MY SPEAKERS.

I have simular equipment than you. I have my KLF-30's Bi-wired (both front and surround). I can't say that I noticed much of a difference but I did it anyway. The theory is the higher frequencies use one set of wires and the lower frequecies use the other set of wires. The crossover in the speakers determines the frequecies carried in each wire. If I were you, I would try one speaker and see what you think. Let me know what you think after you do it - I would like someone elses opinion. If you don't do it, I sure your KLF-20's will rock just the same with one wire. Later, Ken.

I have a Pronto TSU3000. I picked it over the Marantz because it is a 16 shades of gray vs. 4 and I think it had more memory as well. I purchased it at
http://www.surfremotecontrol.com/pronto-3000.html for $244. The price was the lowest that I found and I haven't had any problems with the remote or the company.
I also bought the RF Extender and the docking station. It is a great remote and works will all the equipment that I have. I recommend spending the extra money for the RF Extender. It adds a further range to the remote and also lets you operate it without pointing it at your equipment. I've designed most of the screens myself but I did borrow a few buttons from other people. See WWW.remotecentral.com to download other peoples design. If you download the ProntoEditNg software from Phillips, you can run a simulation of the files you downloaded from remotecentral.com.
The docking station is nice conveneince as well.
Let me know if you have any specific questions. It is a great remote and you won't be disappointed. Ken.

Does the Denon AVR-4802R output the on-screen menus through component video output? Also, Does it convert S-Video to Component Video?
