Mike 585 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 My Yamaha RX-V1600 stopped switching inputs. It happened last Saturday, the same day I had a freak home accident and, among some other things, cracked a vertebra and a rib. It may be possible to cost-effectively repair the Yamaha but in my situation—looking at some downtime—I wanted to the get the system up and running again quickly. I was not that impressed with the Yamaha anyway and wanted to try something different. So, without a lot of research and based on a couple of comments here on the forum, I ordered the Sherwood because it’s only $600 on closeout from Accessories4less and the Trinnov Optimizer sounded very interesting. Now the trick will be getting it hooked up. No lifting or bending for me. I’m hoping my wife has the patience for me to talk her through it.

derrickdj1 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Great pickup! Now get to the wife to hook it up is a ture task. I know my wife would look at me wondering if I am crazy asking her to get behind the avr. Talk in terms of jewlery for the connections and it might work, lol.

Fish Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Congrats, I really like the sound, mine replaced a Yamaha a1000 that was not even close in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
