    Taking Yamaha's Latest Flagship for a Sonic Test Drive: RX-A8A AVENTAGE 11.2-Channel AV Receiver Review!

    Hi Todd, thanks for the response. No need to apologize. I know you are very busy. I don't understand what you mean by " separate screen that is viewed during playback".

    Taking Yamaha's Latest Flagship for a Sonic Test Drive: RX-A8A AVENTAGE 11.2-Channel AV Receiver Review!

    What constitutes an Audiophile or Videophile?

    He does not claim to be an audiophile. I am sorry you missed my point. Just having expensive equipment does not make one an audiophile. In fact I would go further and say that the cost of the equipment you own should not even be considered when describing someone as an audiophile. Many starving...

    What constitutes an Audiophile or Videophile?

    I am sorry to say that the cost of the equipment you own has nothing to do with being considered an audiophile. I know a person who has the top of the line, very expensive setup (AVR, speakers, pre-amps, etc.) installed by a "professional company", but he knows nothing about music. He does not...
