I own the TSR-700. It has really good sound, and a 4k picture. I am very pleased with my purchase. The TSR-700 series is the same as the RX-V6A. It is totally special needs adult owned. Always well taken care of. I love Yamaha receivers. Airbus A320's is my hobby. I am a big fan of Dolby Atmos as well.
Thank you I think you made the only review where we can really witness the power distribution per channel. I bought this receiver last month, happy so far as 3.1.2 ,other reviewers just mention that power may vary.but never with a good example, great job!!!
Great video guys. Thanks for providing all this information for us & showing the power figures 👍🏻 I see the AVENTAGE RX-A2A was just unveiled the other day
This is an impressive test result! The power was 102 watts at 4.1 ohms! I'm seriously considering upgrading my RX-V571 by getting one of these. The second test is also impressive with the power being routed as needed.
We will be reviewing some other yamaha recievers tune, so I'd hold off for a bit. Some really cool content is coming. Also consider purchasing from us to help support our family business, we off the best pricing and nationwide free shipping.
Thank you so much for this test video guys. Been waiting, checking daily since your two channel test video. I cant wait to set this up with a Kef Q900, Q650, Q150. martin logan dynamo 1100 and 800 with in ceiling origin acoustic p60s. Cheers again boys 👌
Good videos guys. I like how you followed up with this 7 channel test, you're enthusiastic and informative, you got a like from me on both videos of the RX-V6A. However please tone down your requests for subscribing to your channel, I get it, it's really important to have subscribers to run a channel but imo it gets annoying and feels like a commercial. Just include the subscribe option into the intro and outro with a short request and leave it at that. But that just my opinion and overall good video!
I assume this is reading only peak wattage and not an RMS. I would estimate the actual stable (constant) power is half that. Still not a bad little receiver!
That’s a real time meter so it just measures what it’s seeing in the moment. If we played all channels driven with something like Pink Noise, yes, you would see a pretty significant drop. It’s able to put out good power during a movie, but it wouldn’t be good for something like multichannel stereo listening. it’s a good little receiver most receivers in that price range would perform pretty similarly.
Have u guys done a dump test on an A2A? Would be interesting to see if they are similar to the V6A being a sales gimmick by yamaha. Or is actually better.
I've listened to the A2A and A4A on a Magnolia shop. Used a scene from Elyisum as a test and thought the A2A would be weak, but instead both sounded almost the same with the A4A had slight more oomph on the base. I thought, I was listening wrong and had the guy who works there play the scene again and yea the A2A sound just as good as the A4A. Did some research and the A2A has the same 10,000uf caps as the A4A just the DACS and are different to each other. A2A has the Burr Brown and A4A has the Saber DACs. So I suspect A2A is going to be even better than the V6A with its 8200uf caps.
@@0311uli just got the A2A last Saturday. Was running the A1010 with Bose acoustimass 10 ( I know I need proper speakers like a Klipsch R8000F ii) but the speakers sound better. Maybe cuz the A1010 was 12 years old and gave up on me. Or the A2A is a way better amp.
@@ChrisPerera911 It has better amps. I have the old-school Pioneer Elite VSX-47TX Flagship, and the A2A sounded like the baby version of that amp. Also compared the A2A to the newer Elite LX305 that's one-to-one with it and it sounded so weak compared to the A2A while they're the same wattage. Yamaha has truly beefed up their amp section on these newer units. You made a good purchase there.
Since you have the Yamaha RX-A2A, could you test the HDR picture as well? I had a RX-V4 but had to return it. Video pass through had severe color banding while in HDR on LG CX and Sony X900H. Devices used were Xbox one, PS4 and Apple TV. It’s been reported the RX-V6 also seems to have this issue as well with the listed devices and TVs.
Hi Divine Team, I have a question . In the previous Yamaha receivers models , they have a setting to adjust subwoofer crossover when in LFE mode. But in this model V6A , yamaha remove subwoofer crossover and replaced it with ( center , 2 fronts and surround crossover ) Someone told me to set all the speakers to 60hz , so the subwoofer will go down to 60hz , but I doubt it Is there anyway to adjust subwoofer crossover setting in this model ? Thanks
I'm in an apartment at the moment with tenants above me so I don't really want a lot of power. I ran speaker line into other rooms for a unified music experience. If I reuse my old unused Logitech z5500 speakers (HU died) as center, front, and surround channels, can I buy 2 other nice speakers for my bathroom and kitchen and expect everything to play good together? Do my 2 new speakers need to match the cheap Logitech speakers in performance or will the receiver manage a set of good "zone" speakers regardless of the other 5?
How does this receiver compare to my Yamaha V795A one? The specs on mine are 85 watts per channel x 5 (not based on two channels driven like todays receivers) I want to see if this is an upgrade power wise or not...great video btw
GREAT CHANNEL! What do you guys thing about the Klipsch R-625FA Towers with that Receiver? I don't think the Atmos works very well being on top of a tower, maybe I don't have it set up correctly?

No, just one pair can be used for zone two. But there’s no reason you can’t run four speakers on two channels. Wire it in a series configuration or use a impedance matching speaker selector.
@@savvas0711 Because you use the surround back terminals for zone 2 when you’re using 5.1.2 in zone 1. If you’re using 7.1 in zone 1, you use the presence terminals for zone 2
Hi Guys! Novice question: Does this AVR have enough power for my Klipsch 5.1 system: • (2) RP8000F Towers 600w [Front] • (1) SPL-120 12” 300W [Subwoofer] • (1) RP 404C [Center] • (2) RP 600M [Bookshelf rears] • AVR: Yamaha - RX-V6A 7.2-channel AV Receiver (RX-V6A) *100 watts per channel into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.06% THD, with 2 channels driven. I have two questions: Is this enough power for my setup or am I risking damaging my speakers? If this is insufficient power for my setup which amp do you recommend? I watched your Dyno test but I've also heard that I should have at least 150w for these RP 8000F speakers. The Spec sheet says "POWER HANDLING (CONT/PEAK) 150/600" So I am a bit confused.
Honestly it would power your set up just fine, the speakers are drawing the power so there's no chance of damaging them unless you play at 115 plus dbs. For your particular set up though we would actually recommend you go with the RX-A2, stay tuned for that video. Aventage is the way to go with that much reference premiere in the room. We also have plenty in stock so consider us when it comes to your purchase, we offer the best pricing and nationwide free shipping!
As for the max output the reciever easily pushed those towers upward of 180 watts RMS. Cleaner power from the aventage A2 with a bit more wattage would be a better choice. Also bare in mind that 150/600 is absolute maximum output which would blow out your ears. Realistically you'll only ever access about 60-70 of your speaker and recievers capabilities at the max volume that your ears could take.
I have the same exact speaker setup as you, I’m pushing everything (subs have own power, speakers set to small) with a cheap Denon 5.1 @80 watt x2 right now, (Onkyo receiver bit the dust on me and couldn’t afford a good unit at the time). My room is around 350 sq ft, and even the cheap Denon gets the job done. Can’t wait to get the Yamaha. Those Klipsch reference premiers are very easy to drive, thinking about getting an 8watt tube amp just to experiment with for music.
Hello sir recently I bought a Yamaha v6a in India … there was a another option of onkyo th 6100 and denon 1700h .. can u tell me, out of these which is better.. So that I can change
Better tuning capabilities on the Yamaha. A little bit more power on the 1700h. I would stick with the Yamaha. It’s quite good. Just go into the parametric EQ and make the manual changes if you want to change the sound
Be nice to see ive got lx59 it awesome other then no dolby vision or hdr 10+ pass through but I just about get around it.but I am thinking of getting a qsc power amp to run front speakers thats video has convinced me more with how much power front 3 run and rest hardly any.
I take this beauty can't power 7.X.2, correct? As in, you either go 7.X or 5.X.2, but not both despite the nine speaker terminals, as it's just 7 channels at once, right?
You got it, the new aventage recievers coming soon will for sure do 9. The higher end Aventage should hopefully do up to 13 but we'll just have to wait and see. No leaks out there yet.
Yes but it can power all the terminals; i.e. you can connect Side, Rear and Height speakers simultaneously. In Atmos content the height speakers play instead of rears but if no height channel content is present (no Atmos or DTS:X) then other channels can play in 7.1
I love your video but have a comment. The RX-V6A is actually rated at 100 watts per channel * 2 under the following condition (20Hz-20kHz, 2ch driven at 0.06% Total Harmonic Distortion). So that's 200 watts in stereo or with 2 channels driven. You can verify the same from the owner's manual. The specs on the website can be a little confusing. I presume that the reason you didn't achieve that power was perhaps because the volume was set to 0 and not cranked up further (On some Yamahas, there is the option of changing the scale from the default db scale to the more old-school 0-99). The volume control is logarithmic rather than linear and it gets much more sensitive as you crank up the volume. I have a lot of Yamaha equipment, including an Aventage RX-A850 and the more humble, RX-V683 and swear by their build quality and long-term reliability.
Thanks for watching buddy and we appreciate your comment. This wasn’t a two channel driven test. This was a surround test showing how the power is moved around during an actual movie. The numbers that we hit were fantastic. Mind you the Ohm load was a bit lower on these particular units. We other AVR tests coming soon! We look forward to your comments on future videos!
Layout, I have a PC and PS5 plugged into this avr, and avr to lg cx tv. All high speed hdmi. I have the LG magic remote set with arc to power and control volume on my avr. Question, 1) Does anyone know how to get the LG magic remote to go thought my avr source? I would love to easily switch between my inputs. 2) Everytime I power on my avr with my lg magic remote, it automatically uses the tv source on my avr. I would like it to use the hdmi 1 source instead. Does anyone know how to set this up?
You are testing the peak power aren't you? Shouldn't you be getting at least 200 watts on those tests (I think peak wattage is usually at least double RMS) can you test the RMS ACD?
It has hdmi 2.1, but, due to a hardware bug, if you plug the PS5 directly into the receiver, you won’t get 4K 120. Yamaha will be doing a free hdmi board replacement sometime in the fall to fix that problem. Otherwise this is a great unit that punches well above it’s price point.
Hi guys, i love your review and am looking forward to buy mine. can anybody tell me where is can buy a good test dvd for sound like the one used in the video?
You can Download them online. Google Dolby sample trailers or Dolby Atmos samples. Once Downloaded, you can either burn them to Disc or store them on NAS or put them in Flash Drive. As you like. Hope this helps.
@@trufnk the receiver is 6 ohm stable which means you need to use 6 ohm or 8 ohm Tower speakers or in wall speakers. The receiver does however have the ability to power a couple of strong front Tower speakers for the left and right channel only at 4 Ohms. Every speaker on the market has an OHM rating and you'll find it listed on the back of the speaker itself. If you go below the stable ohm rating on the receiver, you'll burn up the receiver
@@DivineAV Thanks was looking at Emotivas which are 4 ohm and I believe you can only amp the first two front channels with this receiver, so either this is a no go or I need to look at other speakers...bummer.
How do you get the "Dolby Atmos" words show up on the display of the receiver? I have this receiver and I only use Apple TV 4K. I can never get Dolby Atmos to show on the display.
The readout will say atmos when its producing atmos. If you are watching Atmos content on an atmos enabled device and not seeing that then you don't have your TV or streaming device settings correct. The TV or Apple TV device is probably decoding the audio. You want the receiver to do it instead.
I had this same issue via Xbox One. Had to change settings on Xbox to bitstream out and installed a Dolby app on Xbox too that fixed it, found RUclips videos on it too. Also make sure Direct mode on Yamaha is off.
Thank you Gents for the Common Man's explanation of what AVRs will do regarding power/ performance. This little Yammy is quite impressive isn't it? Do you think ATMOS [for background/atmospheric sound] runs any more constant than does main layer background surround sound ?
Yeah this thing can put out some power. It's a great receiver. During our Atmos testing, we see basically the same result but the power gets moved around a bit differently. We noticed how much greater balance between how much power was sent to the front stage versus how much power get sent to the surround and overhead
The Xbox Series S does not play nice in CEC with my Onkyo receiver at all, in fact, when it's active, it straight up breaks CEC functionality with all other devices connected to it. It's really frustrating.
The meter shows the RMS wattage per speaker during the scene. It's not an exact constant RMS wattage because it's not something like a test tone, the wattage varies during the film
audiovision de tested also Yamaha RX-V6A: 7 channels driven continuosly at 1khz into 6 ohm speakers shows 22 watts only and 5 channels 44 watts only ... but somehow you measured 119 Watts 7 channels driven ... in reality you need something like Marantz SR8015 to get such high RMS power on 7 channels at the same time!
If you watch the video again, you will see that during a movie, the power is utilized entirely differently. The speakers are never playing the same thing at the same time. They are playing all different sounds at various points in the movie. Having the exact same output from every channel is not a real world use. Any standard AVR above about $500 can do a pretty decent job for anyone with a mid range budget. We were showing a live Dyno test with actual speakers. It’s literally what the gauge was reading so audiovision should probably do more realistic testing so people can get a good idea of what they actually need. Thanks for your comment
They're just shy of 4 feet and there a very very few speakers anywhere near 6 feet on the market. Actually more like none short of actual movie theater speakers(which we've installed) and those aren't even called "towers". Its industry standard to call floorstanding speakers towers. Also reiterate your question, what do you mean by, "what are the speakers crossed at?" The terminology is off there, that can mean a multitude of things.
I wanted to give all the thumbs up for this test but you are repeating the "Like Subscribe support us" almost every 3minutes of the video. At the end i decided to dislike just for that. I felt it was exhausting. You do not need to "beg" for support. If the video is good people will do it even if you do not say so. It is 2021.

@@savvas0711 Because you use the surround back terminals for zone 2 when you’re using 5.1.2 in zone 1. If you’re using 7.1 in zone 1, you use the presence terminals for zone 2
Please add a link in the notes for the Dyno and the spf meter
Again I like it a lot what is the contact information to get in touch with you guys to see about ordering one of these receivers

Looking forward to hearing from you boss
How about the new Yamaha RX-A2A? Got one yet? It is supposed to fix all the problems relating to some of the Gaming inputs.
;) it's in route
denon avr-x2700h vs yamaha rx-v6a better is ?????
Hi Guys! Novice question:
Does this AVR have enough power for my Klipsch 5.1 system:
• (2) RP8000F Towers 600w [Front]
• (1) SPL-120 12” 300W [Subwoofer]
• (1) RP 404C [Center]
• (2) RP 600M [Bookshelf rears]
• AVR: Yamaha - RX-V6A 7.2-channel AV Receiver (RX-V6A)
*100 watts per channel into 8 ohms (20-20,000 Hz) at 0.06% THD, with 2 channels driven.
I have two questions:
Is this enough power for my setup or am I risking damaging my speakers?
If this is insufficient power for my setup which amp do you recommend?
I watched your Dyno test but I've also heard that I should have at least 150w for these RP 8000F speakers. The Spec sheet says "POWER HANDLING (CONT/PEAK) 150/600" So I am a bit confused.
Honestly it would power your set up just fine, the speakers are drawing the power so there's no chance of damaging them unless you play at 115 plus dbs. For your particular set up though we would actually recommend you go with the RX-A2, stay tuned for that video. Aventage is the way to go with that much reference premiere in the room. We also have plenty in stock so consider us when it comes to your purchase, we offer the best pricing and nationwide free shipping!
As for the max output the reciever easily pushed those towers upward of 180 watts RMS. Cleaner power from the aventage A2 with a bit more wattage would be a better choice. Also bare in mind that 150/600 is absolute maximum output which would blow out your ears. Realistically you'll only ever access about 60-70 of your speaker and recievers capabilities at the max volume that your ears could take.
@@DivineAV Thank you for the feedback and recommendation.
I have the same exact speaker setup as you, I’m pushing everything (subs have own power, speakers set to small) with a cheap Denon 5.1 @80 watt x2 right now, (Onkyo receiver bit the dust on me and couldn’t afford a good unit at the time). My room is around 350 sq ft, and even the cheap Denon gets the job done. Can’t wait to get the Yamaha. Those Klipsch reference premiers are very easy to drive, thinking about getting an 8watt tube amp just to experiment with for music.
È possibile utilizzare jack a banana dietro all' RX v6a ???? Quale jack quali dimensioni ????
Hello sir recently I bought a Yamaha v6a in India … there was a another option of onkyo th 6100 and denon 1700h .. can u tell me, out of these which is better.. So that I can change
Better tuning capabilities on the Yamaha. A little bit more power on the 1700h. I would stick with the Yamaha. It’s quite good. Just go into the parametric EQ and make the manual changes if you want to change the sound
Good afternoon, can you tell me why when I turn on spotify in zone 2, the sound is turned on in the main zone as well? Party mode is disabled.
Would be nice if yall could test Pioneer sc lx series. I want to see if the class d3 is the real deal of power
We may get our hands on one of those after the holiday and have some fun
Be nice to see ive got lx59 it awesome other then no dolby vision or hdr 10+ pass through but I just about get around it.but I am thinking of getting a qsc power amp to run front speakers thats video has convinced me more with how much power front 3 run and rest hardly any.
whats the actual rms rating in 2 stereo direct in 8ohms ang 4ohm load?
So does this amplifier go above what the power supply is rated for? 360watts.
Where did you guys get the dolby test disc? Can i buy it as well, is it consumer sale?
The Denon AVRs display the audio codecs like DD, DTS, DTS HD MA, DOLBY TRUE HD, does Yamaha RX-V6A depicts this info on its display panel ?
Yes
Thanks
Keep it up guys.
Any chance of a 7 channel driven test on a Denon AVR-X4700H or the Denon AVR-X6700H?
Denon x2600h 7 channels driven rating please
We may give that a shot pretty soon. A lot goes into the production. Takes over 10 hours total with editing
Can you ship to Australia?? I mean speakers not powered audio
So is this yamaha a2a worth buying with a 2 ch emotiva. For L&R
It will definitely do the job but I would recommend saving up and going with something that has Dirac Live.
Also how did d receiver compare to denon x2700
Anyone know when the HDR firmware update is coming ?
I take this beauty can't power 7.X.2, correct? As in, you either go 7.X or 5.X.2, but not both despite the nine speaker terminals, as it's just 7 channels at once, right?
You got it, the new aventage recievers coming soon will for sure do 9. The higher end Aventage should hopefully do up to 13 but we'll just have to wait and see. No leaks out there yet.
Yes but it can power all the terminals; i.e. you can connect Side, Rear and Height speakers simultaneously. In Atmos content the height speakers play instead of rears but if no height channel content is present (no Atmos or DTS:X) then other channels can play in 7.1
I love your video but have a comment. The RX-V6A is actually rated at 100 watts per channel * 2 under the following condition (20Hz-20kHz, 2ch driven at 0.06% Total Harmonic Distortion). So that's 200 watts in stereo or with 2 channels driven. You can verify the same from the owner's manual. The specs on the website can be a little confusing. I presume that the reason you didn't achieve that power was perhaps because the volume was set to 0 and not cranked up further (On some Yamahas, there is the option of changing the scale from the default db scale to the more old-school 0-99). The volume control is logarithmic rather than linear and it gets much more sensitive as you crank up the volume.
I have a lot of Yamaha equipment, including an Aventage RX-A850 and the more humble, RX-V683 and swear by their build quality and long-term reliability.
Thanks for watching buddy and we appreciate your comment. This wasn’t a two channel driven test. This was a surround test showing how the power is moved around during an actual movie. The numbers that we hit were fantastic. Mind you the Ohm load was a bit lower on these particular units. We other AVR tests coming soon! We look forward to your comments on future videos!
Layout,
I have a PC and PS5 plugged into this avr, and avr to lg cx tv. All high speed hdmi. I have the LG magic remote set with arc to power and control volume on my avr.
Question,
1) Does anyone know how to get the LG magic remote to go thought my avr source? I would love to easily switch between my inputs.
2) Everytime I power on my avr with my lg magic remote, it automatically uses the tv source on my avr. I would like it to use the hdmi 1 source instead. Does anyone know how to set this up?
You are testing the peak power aren't you? Shouldn't you be getting at least 200 watts on those tests (I think peak wattage is usually at least double RMS) can you test the RMS ACD?
What volume u had the reciver at? When testing
Set at 0
Hi great show👍👍, does this amp work with the PS5 ?, keep up the good work👍👍.
Yes it has HDMI 2.1
@@felixr6307 Thanks bro👍👍.
It has hdmi 2.1, but, due to a hardware bug, if you plug the PS5 directly into the receiver, you won’t get 4K 120. Yamaha will be doing a free hdmi board replacement sometime in the fall to fix that problem. Otherwise this is a great unit that punches well above it’s price point.
Hi guys, i love your review and am looking forward to buy mine.
can anybody tell me where is can buy a good test dvd for sound like the one used in the video?
You can Download them online. Google Dolby sample trailers or Dolby Atmos samples. Once Downloaded, you can either burn them to Disc or store them on NAS or put them in Flash Drive. As you like. Hope this helps.
Thanks Can this drive 4 ohm speakers?
Yes, front left and right only
@Divine AV Home Theater Can you explain what this means?
@@trufnk the receiver is 6 ohm stable which means you need to use 6 ohm or 8 ohm Tower speakers or in wall speakers. The receiver does however have the ability to power a couple of strong front Tower speakers for the left and right channel only at 4 Ohms. Every speaker on the market has an OHM rating and you'll find it listed on the back of the speaker itself. If you go below the stable ohm rating on the receiver, you'll burn up the receiver
@@DivineAV Thanks was looking at Emotivas which are 4 ohm and I believe you can only amp the first two front channels with this receiver, so either this is a no go or I need to look at other speakers...bummer.
Hi guys, what will be the difference between the RX-V6 and RX-A2A
We will be doing a comparison video very soon.
How do you get the "Dolby Atmos" words show up on the display of the receiver? I have this receiver and I only use Apple TV 4K. I can never get Dolby Atmos to show on the display.
The readout will say atmos when its producing atmos. If you are watching Atmos content on an atmos enabled device and not seeing that then you don't have your TV or streaming device settings correct. The TV or Apple TV device is probably decoding the audio. You want the receiver to do it instead.
I had this same issue via Xbox One. Had to change settings on Xbox to bitstream out and installed a Dolby app on Xbox too that fixed it, found RUclips videos on it too. Also make sure Direct mode on Yamaha is off.
Yamaha the best!
Curious to see what the new Marantz SR5015 would manage too pull off
Great video you guys btw. Had a old school Yamaha amp. Built very tough. Could handle some very demanding speakers.
Thanks buddy, yeah Yamaha makes good products for sure
mine has 0.005 of distortion now they dont have
What was that Dolby Atmos test thing on? A disk?
It's just a standard amp dyno. We had to film multiple times. Difficult video to make
Great video
what song are you playing??? cant find NCS??? what song? Name , artis???
NCS Lune
Information in the video description
Thank you Gents for the Common Man's explanation of what AVRs will do regarding power/ performance.
This little Yammy is quite impressive isn't it?
Do you think ATMOS [for background/atmospheric sound] runs any more constant than does main layer background surround sound ?
Yeah this thing can put out some power. It's a great receiver. During our Atmos testing, we see basically the same result but the power gets moved around a bit differently. We noticed how much greater balance between how much power was sent to the front stage versus how much power get sent to the surround and overhead
Thanks for watching buddy
Unreal
Hi do you know how to get this receiver to turn on automatically when my xbox series x turns on
Turn on Hdmi control in the Yamaha. Check CEC settings if any in xbox. May issues with this right now in the community
The Xbox Series S does not play nice in CEC with my Onkyo receiver at all, in fact, when it's active, it straight up breaks CEC functionality with all other devices connected to it. It's really frustrating.
what is the main difference between TSR-700 vs RX-V6A?
Same unit. Just a Costco exclusive
So each speaker was getting 119 Watts RMS?
The meter shows the RMS wattage per speaker during the scene. It's not an exact constant RMS wattage because it's not something like a test tone, the wattage varies during the film
Legends
audiovision de tested also Yamaha RX-V6A:
7 channels driven continuosly at 1khz into 6 ohm speakers shows 22 watts only and 5 channels 44 watts only ... but somehow you measured 119 Watts 7 channels driven ... in reality you need something like Marantz SR8015 to get such high RMS power on 7 channels at the same time!
You do know that almost no one uses these receivers in multi channel stereo mode,correct?
If you watch the video again, you will see that during a movie, the power is utilized entirely differently. The speakers are never playing the same thing at the same time. They are playing all different sounds at various points in the movie. Having the exact same output from every channel is not a real world use. Any standard AVR above about $500 can do a pretty decent job for anyone with a mid range budget. We were showing a live Dyno test with actual speakers. It’s literally what the gauge was reading so audiovision should probably do more realistic testing so people can get a good idea of what they actually need. Thanks for your comment
Cool
What are the channels crossed at? Also stop the annoying misnomer of calling 3' tall speakers as towers. Towers would be 6' tall speakers.
They're just shy of 4 feet and there a very very few speakers anywhere near 6 feet on the market. Actually more like none short of actual movie theater speakers(which we've installed) and those aren't even called "towers". Its industry standard to call floorstanding speakers towers. Also reiterate your question, what do you mean by, "what are the speakers crossed at?"
The terminology is off there, that can mean a multitude of things.
Do you mean what are the cross over settings for the "towers" in the Yamaha?
You should start accepting Dogecoin, so you all can really go to the Moon.
i dont like those yams models i prefer older ones
I wanted to give all the thumbs up for this test but you are repeating the "Like Subscribe support us" almost every 3minutes of the video. At the end i decided to dislike just for that. I felt it was exhausting. You do not need to "beg" for support. If the video is good people will do it even if you do not say so. It is 2021.
Great video
whats the actual rms rating in 2 stereo direct in 8ohms ang 4ohm load?
