![]() Look and feel of the controls is a little cheaper, but hey it works - and I won't feel quite as ripped-off if it dies in a couple years.įor the sub, I've been running an SVS unit for 10+ years. So far so good, and I'm actually really happy with that unit's sound and power (at 1/4 the price of the Integra). I took a leap of faith and replaced it with a Yamaha RX-V675 for ~$275 new a year ago. Worked fine for a few years, and then the HDMI board crapped out (another common problem apparently). so I just pulled it all apart and scrubbed the board down myself. I looked into having them perform the "fix", but would have had to pay shipping plus all the downtime. Really annoying! Turns out this was due to a conformal coating that they apply to the front panel board. Second was an Onkyo TX-NR708 which started randomly switching input channels after 6 months. I went through two Onkyo products, both of which had a really short lifespan.įirst one was an Integra DTR 7.1(? IIRC) which lost its left front channel after only 2-3 years. How's Marantz, adcom, and Harmon Kardon lately? I did have a Harmon Kardon that was great for me, so that could be an option. OR, look used and possibly buy a China made Rotel or US B&K or possibly NAD. I can get something like that or Pioneer, etc. I had a lot of problems with this Onkyo even though they deliver a lot of bang for the buck. How do they rate wats on these multi channel amps? You'll see a figure like 100 watts per channel x 7, or 120watts x2 (just stereo).huh? How, do nicer companies watts compare to what's listed for the regular (cheaper) AVRs like pioneer, denon etc?Īny advice? or, does anyone have such items and you're looking to sell so you can upgrade? Come on, you deserve it!! Thanks!! ![]() The replacement AVR should be 7.1, 7.2 and I xcan maybe scrounge up $300-$400 max for a replacement. ![]() Or buy a Class D sub plate amp for around $125, but then will the speaker be next to go? I also wouldn't mind buying a beter sub on the used market, but depending on how old it is, it could have caps ready to die as well. So, I can replace the 100watt RMS subwoofer with a new subwoofer like a Dayton 12' for around $140. My wife hasn't worked since October and we just paid for 2 weddings in 2 years - so money's tight!! I thought that was a moderator thing to do that, but what do I know? I posted this earlier but somehow deleted the entire post (even after other people responded). I may be able to replace some Caps on it and maybe a resistor and 2 diodes. (2 surrounds per kit) Upgrade your old foam surrounds with rubber if the sizes fit! Kits are notated either angled or flat, which is the point where the surround is attached to the cone.My Onkyo AVR was knocked out by a lightning strike and my Cambridge Basscube 12's amp bit the dust. Some caps have no lip (most JBL’s), but most have a lip which sits on the cone. When measuring dust caps, make sure you include the lip of the cap, not just the dome itself. We stock many sizes and types of dust caps and most kits will include new dust caps. We may have other surrounds that will fit your speakers. If the measurements listed below do not match your speakers, please call. The most important thing to remember is that the surrounds must overlap the speaker cone on the inside edge and the speaker basket on the outside edge. Some surrounds will fit better if they are gently stretched out or if they are a little too big. The measurements listed here do not have to match your speakers exactly for the surrounds to work. Use the tables below to determine the correct surrounds for your speakers. Depending on your country’s customs some orders may take over 30-45 days.
