You sir, have a PM.

Okay, so I picked up a Pioneer 320 Blu-ray Player over Christmas and I've been using the analog outs in order to listen to the new loss-less audio formats.

Currently, I'm using some basic rca...

That software version is good to go. It's the same that's on my Ref 50 s1 (which is up-to-date). You can upgrade to the Series 2 firmware but you have to send it in to have the firmware updated and...

Sick deal! I want that amp! (jealous)

What speakers will you be running with your new gear?

I'm sorry to say, I really don't think that receiver will have enough power to run the rti A7's. The A7's really need an external amp to come to life from my experience.

I've heard the A7's with...

Yes, they are timbre matched.

I didn't think we did this at the Polk forums? Common people lets squash the beef. The man has apologized a few times here and edited his post. Lets Save this BS for the AVSforums or something. The...

I'm drinking a Budweiser right now.

+ 1 on this comment here. However, I know this is a Polk forum and I love my RTiA's I just have to say if you have a $5000 budget on speakers and plan on keeping that Yamaha, then I have to suggest...

Yeah, I think your right, Large does sound best with music. I notice the vocals clean up a little when I set them to 80hz but they are really forward sounding speakers anyway so I think Large might...

What frequency should I set my RTI a5's to, or should I set them to large?
I played around with this a lot but I can't make up my mind what I like best. I just want to know what some of you...

I second the B&K amp recommendation. There is no better match for RTIA speakers IMO. Audiogon is your friend.

12 gauge speaker wire will serve you best for those beasts. Generally, the lower the...

Well there you have it. Your decision should be clear as mud now. Good luck with whatever you decide. Hope we helped.

I didn't notice you have a sub already ordered sorry. I would go with the a5's and a 5 channel amp as Leroy stated.

I think the best performance for the cash would be the A5's with your current Receiver (No amps) and take that money and put it into a sub that's great for music and HT.

That being said I have a...

Never mind I googled it :)

Wow $499 is much lower than I was expecting. This looks exciting. Whats does region locked mean?

Hey Andy,

Free bump for ya. Just curious, what you got or are getting to replace that beautiful sounding B&K ref 50?

Happy-Belated-Birthday Bro!

Hey All,

I have a B&K Ref 50 that does not do HDMI but it does have the 7.1 analog inputs. I was thinking of getting the new Oppo Blu ray player when it comes out. (Which does have 7.1 analog...

X2 on that. Love them.

Just and FYI. I have a ref 50 s1 and have had no issue with my optical inputs. I use them for sat and dvd. I switch back and forth with a Logitech harmony remote ever day. I'm using monster and...

I know, I thought I did enough research and picked out the gear that would be great for two channel as well. I bought the ref 50 s1 for $600. If I can't get this straightened out it will half to go...

A test CD hey? I've heard of test DVD for sound and video calibrating. What exactly do you mean by test CD? Any recommendations? And I will try B&K again.

Yeah looks like it not my bass issue is not fixed I was just listening to a different cd at the time. I will try the zone 2 preouts to see what that does.

I have the sub set to off and fronts set...
