    RXFX / RX1 or RX2 for RX6 surrounds?

    Hi So the RXFX has to be at least a metre from nearest corner to work correctly. My question is does this rule apply to both Dipole and Bipole modes. Can I install the RXFX closer to side wall (back wall mounted) if using them in bipole mode? Stuart

    1080p 24 frame blu ray output a through AV reciever - Question

    Hi Yes- sorry wrong words - I am not forcing the blu player to output 24 frame (it's done automaticly - when playing a 24frame disc/movie) but I am (if I want to) having to force Onkyo reciever (via the "through" or "1080p-24frame" HDMI resolution out selection) to output 24hz/frame rather than...

    1080p 24 frame blu ray output a through AV reciever - Question

    Hi A 1080p 24hz/frame resolution output from Samsung blu - ray player input into a Onkyo reciever (N3007 model) which is set to "auto" HDMI resolution output, gives a 1080p 60hz output, when checking status on TV screen (Onkyo reciever displays its sound and display setting on the TV screen)...

    Onkyo N3007 with MA Apex centre and satellites

    Stuartc2uk: Hi A pair of Monitor Audio Radius R270HD are similar price to a pair of Apex satellites. Which would be best for both music and movies. I would use the rest of the Apex range with the radius 270HD floorstanders. Is this a good idea. Exactly the 270HD are cheaper as the stands for...

    Onkyo N3007 with MA Apex centre and satellites

    Hi Big Only due to the fact that room is 3.6x4.0metres (and I sit near back wall, increased bass position) and the only position I can put the Apex sub is in or a max of 1ft (300mm) from corner. So sub may not give a flat response. With a Veloydne SPL 800ultra sub, its smaller thus may be able...

    Onkyo N3007 with MA Apex centre and satellites

    Hi Had a Pioneer VSX-LX70. The sound is more solid (controlled bass), better at higher volumes with Onyko. The pioneer had more setup options (but less user friendly). Onkyo has every new tech going Dolby volume etc apart from 1.4 HDMI. I may not be in the best position to judge sound yet...

    5:1 Speakers system for use with Onkyo TX-NR3007 receiver in a small room just under 4metre squared. Q Acoustics 2000 ?

    Hi, thank for that My room is just a bit smaller than 4metre squared and I sit quite close to opposite wall (15-18inch away) from the front's / TV, so I worry that floorstanding speakers would suffer from to much bass at the listening position. I already have a mezzo 9 sub which is good for...

    Which satellites sound the best as front rears (and equivalent centres speakers) with music/movies etc, Kef HTS3001SE Satellite, B&W M-1 of Q acoustics 2010 or 2020. I need 5.0 speakers to add to a Mordaunt Short Mezzo 9 subwoofer in a smallish room. See previous posts
