I was also surprised that the IOTAVX SA3 amp was not mentioned. It has received rave reviews in the US and Canada and it is made in ENGLAND.

My current 5.1 HT setup is made up of 4 Polk In-walls (front and surround), with a Polk CS-1 center and one very large SVS PB12-ISD/2 sub. This one has two downward firing 12" long-throw woofers and is said to produce sound as low as 16Hz. I have mine tuned to 20Hz bottom. Problem is my wife...

I am in the U. S. and some U. K. speakers are hard to find here. I have Monitor Audio Bronze BX-2's, which I dearly love, in my office hifi system. I would really like to use B&W 685 S2's for my mains in the HT system for quality stereo music, but I will then have to economize with my ceiling...

Precisely what I was looking for. I mey add regular surrounds if and when I upgrade to Atmos.

I have a new house under construction and the builder will wire up to 5 in-celing speaker connections (in-walls are not an option). I plan to use 2 of these as surround speakers and the other 2 for rears and am placing them as follows: The surrounds would be roughly over the seating area and the...

I hope it's not to late to resurrect this issue. I have been using computer-based music exclusively for a year now, both from Internet radio sites and from my own modest CD collection ripped to FLAC files on my hard drive using JRiver. I have a Dell Desktop and I connect using USB through an...

My primary music source is a set of vtuner stations from an iTunes playlist on my PC, most of which publish bit rates of 128Khz, but my favorite (RCO) shows 192K, and BBC3 shows 320k. Based on this information, it seems that a digital coax DAC would be a better fit for me than a 24/96Khz USB...

I am having a similar problem with my new setup in my office. I just purchased two Monitor Audio Bronze BX2's and hooked them up to my old Onkyo TX-NR600, which was working fine when I retired it from my HT system a few months ago. My input source is my PC using Spotify, Pandora, vTuner, etc...

I have this set up so that I can acess media on a wirelessly-connect PC (DLNA Server). When I click on the PC name in the DLNA Server Window, a list of Windows Media folders appears. Only the Music Folder is accessiblem the others have a Red X which indicates they are not available. I have...

Beautiful! That was the ticket. I had opened up all of these settings on the PC connected to the router with Ethernet, but still the Onkyo could not see the PC. I had not done this on the wireless notebook setup which the Onkyo could see, but had failed authentication, but now I can see all of...

Yes, I set it up just like in the video. The only password is the Security key. This is fine as far as connection to the Internet through the router, and I have complete access to all of the Internet sources on the Onkyo NET scfreen with the UWE-1, but it is not enough to satisfy Windows 7...

I have a new Onkyo TX-NR609 with UWE-1 Wireless Adapter. My router has one computer directly addtached with an Ethernet Cable and another laptop that connects wirrelessly. The UWE-1 can only see the wireless laptop, but I want the PC to be the DLNA Server. Am I going to be able to use the wired...
