I am in mourning (1 Viewer)

My most overlooked component was receiver. I had a couple Devons and Onkyos and thought I was doing good since those are big time brands. Did some research last year and reviewers were raving about this Sony 7.2 that went for $500. I did some shopping and found an open box with full warranty at Best Buy for $350 and jumped on it. I was blown away by how much more musical and precise the sound was....I had no idea what I was missing out on

Currently I am using a 5.1 setup. My living room is wide and the Mistral surrounds are omnidirectional so I didn't see much use in going 7.1.

My old Pioneer is 7.1 and has THX. I can literally close my eyes and imagine spatially exactly where a sound came from in a 360 area around me and it has 5.1 analog for DVD-Audio and Super Audio hookups. My next one needs that as well.

You have to play this song for the dogs, or not.





Where did that come from? I meant this song..

I would hate to offend the deity that lives in the subwoofer

I'm gonna be watching Endgame on Blu-ray with surround sound. We'll see how it goes.

Disney finally started getting better with their sound levels on blu-rays with that one.

I like Johnny Cash, CCR, Tool, and Sound Garden.

Play this one, should be a good test.



Testing 1, 2, 3.....
