And yet we always advise try for a home demo, that home demo unit is now 2nd hand and has to be sold for peanuts? Or do we who encourage or demand home loans accept that thats considered ex-dem? We cant have it both ways can we.

"I don't really see why you'd change your amp if you bought a pair." If you want to add the B&W 603 to your system you can without needing to replace your AVR imo, and move your current fronts to other positions/channels nothing gets wasted.

Again?

All three are labelled as ex dem, I guess that could include a home loan unit thats never actually been sold?

There is already a preamp built into your AVR it is what controls the source selection and volume control also the vas DSP options.

Hi Thats quite an expensive AVR you have there and as you've said later it runs DIRAC full range, when you ran DIRAC did you limit the range of the front speakers and do you keep it switched on when listening to music? I do and even in stereo it makes a difference. Wall mounted speakers are...

If you cant here the motor as above open it up and check for small fuses near the motor, one went on my mothers cd a few years back.

Theres a thing called "chip creep" where the heating and cooling of equipment (expanding and contracting) can cause a component to work loose, I think the idea of standby is to maintain a constant operating temperature inside the unit. This used to be an issue with PC's many many years ago I'm...

The trigger in will turn the amp on/off with the preamp (or the component its connected to), this will normally over ride the "soft" on/standby button on the amp, music sense will turn the amp on when it detects a signal but will rely on the auto power off to switch it off after being idle for a...

With the Rubicon LCR its 100mm clear space underneath them wall mounted or 30mm away from the wall if on shelves or stands I'm assuming it'll be similar for the cores .

Not really but I went from the Dali Evidence 470 to Rubicon 6, and while I'd had the 470's for 20 years the improvements were spectacular, took me 48 hours to order the vokal and a few weeks later the LCR's as sides. I'd recommend the LCR rather than the 2's as surrounds so you'll get the same...

Yes but if kit your existing kit can support it why not request a feature update, bluesound for example just rolled out DIRAC room correction and its available on older generations of gear the point is the equipment has the ability.

I can't see how they cannot, you can't position yourself as a high res streamer and not support both high res platforms, it will affect your sales.

I know theres complaints on blue sounds face book pages about it not being available yet, and the chatter is that it will be months.

Of course at that price point the elephant in the room is the Leema Pulse IV
