Wow! Great video! As a complete beginner to home audio, you seem really knowledgeable! It shows in the quality and competency of this video!

[NXTM]

Having bitten the bullet of switching to this manual modular audio setup, this has been super helpful! Thanks!

[jralicea]

Perfect! This will be my task this week once my Klipsch 5.1 system arrives, so excited!

[jamesproudlove]

Thank you for making home theatre set up so easy to follow. I did follow your instructions & wow! I didn't think my system would sound so good. Even listening to my Carpenters CD the stereo sound stage was great. The separation between instruments in the stage I've never been aware until now. Cheers!

When we moved into our house we had the Sony STR-DH750. Never had the room for 7 speakers though. I’ve had several different receivers since because I buy and sell a lot of home audio. USED. Anyway I enjoyed the 3 year old video. Thanks

Nicely Done.
Question for my old Denon 5.1 setup.
I normally run everything, movies and reg. tv in the 7 ch. stereo mode. Voices sounds great from the center channel just not getting the Dolby Digital 5.1 separation.
When the system is set up using Dolby digital for 5.1 my center channel audio gets very muddy but I get the effects going to all the other channels.
Is there something in the setup that needs to change or I should check ?
Thanks in advance.

Great Presentation. You noted that your receiver is located remotely in a closet. I have a similar setup. I installed a Smartcraft IR emitter to control devices (Sony A/V, BlueRay, Apple TV with my universal remote. Remote seems to be working fine and sensor is definitely receiving the signal but my new Sony DH590. receiver does not recognize the signal. Could there be an issues with difference frequencies between the emitter and the receiver?

see that some are having issues with the Sony STR-DH590 sound set up dialing in the SW because the 'on screen' GUI only has limited options. have that model coming in the mail and have been reading (hearing?) all I can prior to installation. got the 5.1 Klipsch's myself to match up with this unit. a post by the cheapaudioman not recommending the unit because of this hassle has really thrown cold water on my expectations. I just may go all manual with the thing. as yet have the Klipsch's hooked up to a mini-amp (Fosi BT30D Pro) and they sound great.
