XM HD Receivers with 5.1 Neural Surround are Here!
If you were impatiently waiting to be the first on your block to be able to listen to XM's upcoming new XM HD channels (XM POPS and FINE TUNING), the wait is over!

I had thought that Pioneer was going to make the first ones. Am I totally off-base? And my impression was that Yamaha had two lines with XM HD. Why did you choose this line?

3 Different Models
Has any one made (found) a comparison of the three models with Neural?

Sound quality for Neural Surround will be the same, the difference is the other features that Yamaha packs into these tuners.

Does the unit support XM Video out (see what playing on tv/monitor) like the Polk Home XM.

Someone needs top tell me how good this stuff is, because Pio released the VSX-816 to replace my VSX-815, and the only change is the addition of XM 5.1.

So I have been looking at these for the last couple of weeks on the internet and decided to get the 5950. I ordered it from MyRadioStore.com yesterday and can't wait. I have a question though. This receiver is many levels above the type of speakers I have. I have home theater in a box speakers from Samsung that are 40W and some Pioneer's that are 30W & 50 W. If I hook these up to this receiver will it blow the speakers or worse damage the reciever. I am going to be real careful with it. I plan on going to CC to get some Pioneers' rated at 120W regardless to at least start out. Can anybody help me, I am a novice (obviously). |

As long as you don't go crankin' it up to the point that your speakers are sounding distorted or anything like that, you should be fine. One thing to beware of with home-theater-in-a-box setups... sometimes the sub is unusable outside of that original receiver. I had one of those from Panasonic, and the sub and receiver units had to be tied together. All of the speakers connected to the sub, as that's where the actual amp was, but the sub is also what powered the receiver, and without the receiver attached, the sub would not power on. Just a little thing I thought I'd mention since you mentioned your current system is from a HTIAB. |
