Not sure if I’m posting this in the right place. So I managed to buy one of the last Marantz SR7015 receivers and did the the Audyssey calibration. I’m sorry to report my results were the same as everyone elses’ in that there’s absolutely no bass even though I have 2 15” subs. I remember...

I hear ya.

Oofda! Ya, that's an eye opener when you look at it from that perspective. No wonder people waited for the price to come down.

Ya, the farther back you go in years the more people were stuck in their ways and didn't want to see much change. On top of that, I remember my parents saying a color TV just cost too much. Some of our neighbors were better off and they got color TVs years before we did. But when we did, it...

Thanks for the clip! Some interesting facts in there.

Out of all the days in our yearly calendar, June 25th turned out to be hugely historic for broadcast TV. Some important trivia facts for you. Just think of the impact these two events had: 1) On this day in 1951, the first ever Color TV broadcast was made by CBS in Boston, Philadelphia...

Oh man! Wish I had seen this sooner! Bummer.

Holy cow this brings back memories. I’m not sure when I decided to go the home theater route because up until then I had been into audio basically my whole life. My audio journey began when I was only 4 years old, literally. My oldest brother came home on leave from the Navy with this fabulous...

I wait until the old one is shot. But then for a replacement I usually go with the good stuff. The last TV I bought was a 4K OLED.

Good move by Onkyo & Integra. It'll be interesting to see how they do in the marketplace.

I feel your pain. I lost a wife and a daughter about 20 years ago now so I know what you're going through. My sincere condolences.

Auro 3D is easily my favorite up-mixer. Would really like to try the real thing. Please keep us posted.

FargateOne, if you live in the US, whenever you use any type Auro you'll be using an upmixer as Auro isn't used by US based movie, TV, or recording studios (at least that I know of). Whenever upmixing, it doesn't mean it only upmixes to 7.3.6. It can upmix into numerous different combinations...
