leo0418 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Someone can help me tell me what is the best receiver for the rf-52 system in 7.1 setup, mainly in sound performance, I read in some forums that denon don’t work fine with klipsch speaker is that true? Actually I have the rx-v663 of Yamaha drive my system but some days run out of gas with my system, I read that Yamaha receivers only gave half of power in 7.1 setup for that reason a I don’t want a best Yamaha receiver, my first look is with denon but I don’t want make a mistake with it.

DU73 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Hi and welcome, you mentioned that you don’t feel the 663 is enough power for the 52’s, have you considered going separates, the 663 has pre outs I believe, therefore you can connect to a power amp and use the 663 as a pre amp. Just a thought, this will give you the extra gas that you are looking for, as for the Denon, many people here use the avr and love the sound with Klipsch.

DU73 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 also i just had a look at the specs for the 663 and it says 145watts per channel x7 - i would think that should be plenty of wattage to make the 52's sing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. RF62 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Your right about it cutting in power when going to 7 channels. Most receivers do that, and you have to find one that does it the least. I myself am looking at Marantz as it seems they don't suffer the power loss as much. But I will be staying with 5.1 to not suffer so much with the power loss. I also have no need for 7 channels.

leo0418 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 Many thanks for your inputs but the rx-v663 is only 95W x 7 channels and it like another Yamaha amplifier it have a lot loss of power when you increase the power in several channels, in 7.1 setup they only gave the half of power (47 W) although my room is small I will have to increase the power to max level to I get full sound in my room, I afraid that I do that I listening only distortion instead a good sound whit this speakers, I love speakers but I thought that it was underpowered my speakers, for that reason I want a new avr.

jamesV Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Welcome to the forum I have a few questions. Do you like the v663 other then the power problems? How much are you looking to spend? Have you thought about an external amp? I bring up the first question to ask the third. If you like the avr and only need a power boost an external amp will take care of that for you. With the pre-outs on the v663 all you need is the RCA cables from avr to the amp and you are up and kicking again, with more power.

jamesV Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 leo0418, That is the hard part as I don't know what products are available to you. If I were you I would get the Denon, some people here have Denon and like them. You have to remember that not everyone is going to like the same sound, it is all personal opinion. Good luck on your search and remember, if it sounds good to you that's all that matters and play it loud. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leo0418 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 ok jamesV thanks a lot for your inputs, we have available some brands in avr (onkio, yamaha, harman kardon and denon) but I will get the denon and I will tell my inputs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
