Posted another thread about what to buy and ended up with this along with q7000i 5.1 speakers.
Sounds great but a couple of issues I’d like to resolve whilst I’m still in my 28 day return/exchange period.
1 - biggest issue is the sky q signal dropping out completely on system switch on, so I get no sound or video. TV is connected via arc with a semi decent hdmi cable. The only way to get it working again is to reboot my sky q box which isn’t ideal.
Done some research on this and appears to be a fairly common issue, but no idea if there is a fix or if it’s limited to just denon etc.
Peter Tyson are more than happy to exchange the unit, but also suggested trying a different hdmi cable. Any thoughts?
2 - second issue not really an issue as such, but I need to crank volume to 80% + to get a decent level of sound out the speakers. Even then it’s still only around -10db.
Is this just a simple case of the amp not being powerful enough? I still have the opportunity to swap it for a x2700 or something more powerful. I’d rather have an amp that can output a decent level of volume without needing to be at almost 100% capacity.
Some people say that apart from bit more power, there isn’t a big difference between 1600 and 2700, so it’s almost not worth making the step up and advise jumping straight to the 3700 or so. Again any thoughts?
