Take a look at these. The link should be filtered for Yamaha's that have preouts. https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/category/avreceiver/home-audio/receivers-amps/home-theater-receivers/1.html?home_audio_key%5B%5D=Mulit-Channel%20Preout&brand_f[]=YAMAHA

I have DirecTV Now. Picture quality is passable. My biggest gripe is the general slowness of changing channels. There are no channel numbers and the only way to get to a specific channel is by clicking through the guide one channel at a time or searching or using one of the other navigation...

Yeah they seem a bit raw when you see the various live videos on youtube. But I like their sound, it's a nice departure from other new music groups. Hopefully they can mature as musicians and stay together for a while. I imagine that falsetto is tough to maintain on a nightly basis for the...

Anyone else hooked on these youngsters who sound like a bit of a throwback Zeppelin? I can't get the song Talk on the Streets out of my head. Here's a couple of samples.

Yes, ARC is for sending audio back to the receiver. This would be used when you use the smart apps built into the TV or OTA broadcasts unless I am missing some other scenarios where you would use this. My $0.02 on the entertainment stand...time to ditch it and wall mount.

Awesome! Post some pics after it arrives.

I just had a somewhat similar experience. My NAD D7050 digital stereo amplifier and wifi streamer will no longer be compatible with Spotify soon. I can still use the USB, Bluetooth and one set of analog inputs but I use this thing with Spotify 90% of the time. I don't know if it was a Spotify...

Well, I got this email out of the blue today from Spotify. I'm not real happy and I don't know if I should be annoyed with NAD or Spotify. Maybe Spotify is rolling out some changes and the folks at NAD don't want to develop further firmware updates? This sucks... Important information about...

Thanks guys! I've made some changes down there. I moved my Dynaudio S3.4 into the basement as they weren't getting used enough in my office. It still needs some updates down there but with my youngest still being only 2.5 years old it's still very much filled with kids stuff. We need some...

Jason Isbell's rocking tribute to Tom Petty.

I watched the first episode and thought they did a decent job of recreating the feel of the original series but I thought that in some scenes the actors felt a bit rusty, but that is to be expected and I think it will improve over time. I was a bit disappointed with the amount of political...

I have flown my whole life and then out of nowhere about 4 years ago I had a panic attack after the door closed on a very short flight from St. Louis to Chicago. I don't know what triggered it but it was more like claustrophobia than a fear of flying. I made it thru the flight but it was...

He was a legend in my eyes. An early live recording of Breakdown is still one of my favorite all time songs.

I sure hope the standalone player doesn't die. I would prefer the ability to upgrade those devices as the technology improves vs. having to by a new TV more often. But it could be going that way. What I would really like to see Roku do is add an input for an antenna and add an OTA tuner app...

In the early rounds McGregor looked good. His jabs and footwork were good. He definitely landed some good punches. He hung in there better than most expected but in the end Mayweather stuck to the game plan and let McGregor tire himself out and he delivered the shots when and where he needed...

It could be an easy fix depending on the issue. If these were in a garage for a long time it is possible that a rodent climbed inside the port and gnawed on some speaker wire. You should remove the drivers from the cabinet and inspect the inside. Paradigm may have a replacement tweeter if the...

I have two Yamaha receivers that I have been really happy with. I also have a Denon model that was one down from the top of the line AVR and that Denon has had HDMI issues. The Denon had the better user interface and more bells and whistles but it was so finicky. The Yamahas on the other hand...

I've got a 32" Vizio that is probably about 7 years old. It is bulletproof. But it's prob not the best comparison since the smaller size should be more rigid. If I was in the market for a 70" tv, Vizio would definitely be on my list of brands to consider. Their mid to upper range models...

Are you talking about tuner hardware or client hardware?

I am interested in this now that we have cancelled Dish Network. Is the expectation that Live TV and DVR via Plex will eventually be available via the Roku app? Right now it seems to be Android and iOS devices only. Is that correct?
