    Advice on new HDMI receiver

    From my PC the multichannel audio is not a problem. The problem is the multichannel from my PS3, as I use this for a Blu-Ray player, 2D and 3D. Getting an adapter for HDMI to multichannel is about R2000 from ebay, which is not worth it. Alternatively I can get a Blu-ray player for my PC, but...

    Advice on new HDMI receiver

    Went to Dion Wired to listen to those Marantz combos for sale, not that impressed actually. My current speakers actually sound pretty awesome, it is just the decoding that is giving me headaches. Would love to buy a 7.2 receiver, but then I'm short 1 speaker, obviously I cannot source one...

    The 2 combo deals they have seems like a real good deal. Trying to sell my old 6.2 system cheaply.

    Advice on new HDMI receiver

    Does anyone have experience with Marantz receivers? I see the Marantz NR1402 is on special at Dion Wired for R3500, and it does sound pretty damn awesome. Although, anything sounds better than my current amp :(

    Advice on new HDMI receiver

    I'm gonna wait till the new year for my purchases, as there is always delivery issues this time of year. Hopefully that online price will still be available then. Either way, I hope for some kind of deal. Hopefully from one of the sellers on the forum, as they have been very very helpful so far.

    Musical Fidelity M1 DAC-A - First impressions

    Good question, I would like to know as well. I'm still considering the STXfor a start, but I'm unsure. The Musiland Monitor 02 and the STX is priced similar at the moment.

    Advice on new HDMI receiver

    At the moment I'm using the default 6.2 Sony setup as per my signature. The one that's usually on the Game/Makro/Hi-Fi specials. Al I really want a decent priced receiver, that actually decodes the HDMI audio (which mine doesn't), and hopefully can support all my speakers.I can't stand all the...

    Sennheiser Headphones

    Did the 580 get a replacement model? If so, what was it replaced by? Seems these ones are a bit beyond my price range though

    Musiland Monitor 02

    I've had a look at the Xonar Essence STX, which seems like the perfect option for most PC users, but you don't have the portability of an external device.I will have to get the add on card for my 5.1 Z5500 speakers as well. Which headphones are you using?

    Musiland Monitor 02

    Dang, that's awesome. Hopefully I can get the Musiland imported myself as Gert is not going to at the moment. Will post a thread later on for one of them, something similar or maybe if Gert decides to build more :) Think for now, a Dac and proper Headphones will keep me happy for a while.
