    pix you're a wierd cat, you go on and on about this problem with your one yamaha, even going almost as far a insulting another member for purchasing one, but then you push everyone to buy an onkyo/integra, which have many stories all over the net about reliability problems...

    does that make sense to you?

    Are you trying to make him think logically?

    So do I come across as "self-involved" in this or any other thread I've started about my receiver? IMO, it's bad form to ignore others' questions or responses in general. Just a natural tendency I guess.

    Well I see you finally got that quote thing figured out. Good for you!

    No, I'm pretty sure there was nothing wrong with your Yammie. Sounds like a user problem to me.

    oh NO THERE WASNT ANYTHING "WRONG", just a bad cap on the digital board.
    When the prob first surfaced it was only with digital inputs

    You havent figured it out YET, but dont worry, GM is just as clueless as you

    does that make sense to you?

    When have I "pushed" anyone into buying an Integra/onkyo?
    I have had one for four years with NO problems whatsoever , NONE.
    Thats a pretty good service record but, even more important my Integra has some real audiophile features, high current amps, a real phono stage worthy of serious consideration,
    and usable features like CD direct, 12v triggers, net connectivity.
    A lot have these today, but I bought this one four years ago.
    AND I might kid rich but he really made a decent purchase.
    But I garentee ya, a modern day yamaha isnt even close to what they used to turn out,
    and even rich will agree on me with that.
    A new "ht" receiver is nice, but I miss the day when you could get an audiophile grade receiver from a "mainstream" manufacturer

    Coming from you, I'll take that as a compliment. Seems that all the people you call clueless have about 50 IQ points over you.
    The few people you do agree with are, well... about as bright as a black hole.

    Anyone who calls himself a true Audiophile would laugh his a$$ off at this statement.

    No, but they fight like an old married couple.

    I said : "That's nothing - you should hear me play piano"
