Svat wrc101 wireless remote control
* Look out for receivers which don't bother to show you a power spec with two channels driven, into a specific impedance, from 20hz to 20khz, at a fair THD (1% THD or less) * In real operation, engineers don't expect all channels to be trying to hit max power at the same point in time - therefore a pretty typical way to rate a modern receiver is by driving only two channels to get an approximate power output spec * At one point the FTC had a pretty fair method for rating stereo amps the problem was with 5+ channel amps, that method does not work well
Putting in one power supply per amp is expensive, but is seen in some higher end amps.Įxplaining the whole issue with power ratings will take a chapter, and I would get tired of typing by then. Just think of it like connecting multiple hoses to water your lawn - they are all drawing from your water supply, and adding more hoses will decrease water pressure at each hose. All the channels are fed from that ONE power supply. But it has to be better than not bi-amping at all.Ĭlick to expand.There is ONE power supply. Is this AS good as separate amp and external xos? Hell no. Wouldn't someone cry foul? You can't list features that are empty lies. And when you access the option, you find out there is no change in the bass, treble, or midrange. But, if they are going to list it as a feature and it truly is nothing more than a fabrication, then how could they get away with that? It's like saying that this AVR has a tone control as one of its DSPs. I didn't even know it had this, nor could I have cared. People don't buy AVRs for their bi-amping capabilities. What about the Front Heights? Or the Front Wides? Would they not also get 135W+135W, if used? Furthermore, I don't buy the "they only use that bi-amping option as a selling gimmick" thing. Still wouldn't the bi-amped speakers get significantly more than 85w in this config? The Specs also state the following:Ĭontinuous Power Output (1KHz, 8 ohms. Simultaneous output of nine channels is 760W. But if I use only seven, now all of a sudden, I AM sharing? What was I doing when I was using nine?Įdit: Let me correct that. But wouldn't the lower end have more usable power than it would if it only had one set of speaker wires going to it rather than two sets? I mean if I'm using nine speakers, am I "robbing Peter"? No. Now if I don't use two of those nine at all (they're just sitting there with no speakers attached), what exactly happens to the power that is allocated to those channels? And, if I redirect that power to one set of speakers rather than two sets, isn't that one set receiving significantly more power (if not double) than what it would normally receive in a 9.2 setup? I know that whatever the upper end doesn't use, is wasted in heat. Each, of which, are rated to produce 135wpc with all channels driven (otherwise they wouldn't say 9 x 135wpc rated output). I still don't understand the concept of "Robbing Peter to Pay Paul".
What is this, how does it work, what connections are made, and can anyone suggest a good brand that is relatively inexpensive ?
SVAT WRC101 WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL FULL
Many on other forums have told me that this condition will not allow me to use the full potential of the Crown and not fully drive the speakers I am hooking up to it.
SVAT WRC101 WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL SERIES
The input of the Crown XLS series is 1.4 Vrms. Turning on the amp manually defeats this purpose.Ģ) The output voltage of the Pio pre-amp out is 1V peak-to-peak. I will not leave it on continuously and I will not accept having to turn it on manually every time I want to use it as I use a Harmony remote for "Activities" that require the AVR to be used. However, the Crown has no 12v trigger input nor any other type of remote functionality. Here are the concerns:ġ) The amp must come on when I am using the receiver. Only the crown is shallow enough to fit in. So, this kills the possibility of amps like Parasound, Emotiva, and others as they are all over 18 inches deep. My receiver barely fits in one and it even sticks out over the edge by an inch or so (not too bad). This unit must go into an entertainment center that has small depth cubicles (16" max depth). I have researched for many days now trying to find an amp that will fit the bill and that includes price ($400 or less). My problem is two-fold and I need to have both problems solved before I pull the trigger on this. I know this type of bi-amping is not optimum and have decided to add a dedicated amp to the system. I'm currently using a Pio SC-1523-K 9.2 channel AVR in bi-amp mode to my fronts in a 7.2 setup. I would like to add a crown amp to power my floor standing fronts (Polk 75T).
