Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater New Poll: What Receiver Do You Use?

I'm surprised at the number of Onkyo's

HK FOR LIFE!

hehe, 630 here, gotta love the underrated power of an HK

A spot on the poll is need for receiver with amp.

wid - good point, I was thinking HT system or "main" system in the house if people have more than one, but I didn't say that explicitly.

ratpack - I agree with you on the cost effectiveness and how that is probably linked to the Axiom experience.

bugbitten - Yeah, I didn't think about the people using receivers into amps. That would be a good category to add, because there could be confusion about which way to answer that one.

Other notes - the HK and Yamaha people seem to be coming out of the woodwork, as the Denon lead is shrinking a little.

I also only voted for "Main System" but I have to mention that I am currently using Onkyos for both the main and Diningroom systems.

Happy with both.

Am I the only one surprised by the low number of separates users?

I use my receiver in conjunction with separate amps but there was not a category for this choice so I just voted for my receiver brand.

I am actually surprised by the number of Sonys!!!

I am an electronics tech by trade, and if its one thing I have learned over the years, its "goto a plumbers house, all the faucets leak, goto a mechanics house, and he has non-running vehicles in the yard...etc", so when I bought my AVR, quality, features, price, and WARRANTY was very important to me. I know Sony is not very well reguarded in the audio arena, but I love my SonyES and don't think I could have done better for the price.

If they were in the price bracket and had comparible warranties at the time I purchased, I probably would have went with Integra or Denon though.

I'm going to develop a separate amplifier and market it heavily to Denon owners for use as an outboard amp. It will be piano black and have a red LED level meter. I'll call it Mortis, the Latin word for death, which fits the color scheme nicely.

Why market it to Denon owners? The slogan says it all:


Nothing fits your Denon better than a Mortis

I don't get it but can I go ahead and pre order anyway.

Mortise and tenon. (sounds like a law firm) = Mortis and Denon.



Simple and strong, the mortise and tenon joint (also called the mortice and tenon) has been used for millennia by woodworkers around the world to join two pieces of wood, most often at an angle close to 90°.
