 I'm new to Bose 901's (and no, I won't be convinced to sell them because people think they're terrible).   I'm looking at receivers and the Harman Kardon 3390 or 3490 seem the most appealing.  These have the pre out/main in necessary for the 901's.   Interestingly, Harman Kardon just...

My setup is a Samsung plasma hooked up to a Hk 3490 connected to a couple pioneer floorstandings. Also connected are a turntable, dvd player and sub. Yesterday, when I turned the receiver on, I was surprised to hear no sound, and when I increased the volume to - 20 dB, a muddy hissing began to...

Hope the receiver forum is appropriate for this question. My main system utilizes two energy eswv10/vsw10 subwoofers. These are 10" subs with 300w bash plate amps. They are able to go down to 23hz within +/-3db. The bash amp in one has suddenly failed producing almost no output, the other is...
