Why is my home audio receiver volume so low?
[2008-12-28 11:13:14]

Q: I have a 5 year old Kenwood VR-5080 home audio receiver that is properly hooked up to two functioning speakers that are correctly connected. Regardless of what input the sound is coming from the output volume to the speakers is extremely low. The volume range is from +13 at the loudest to -100. Only when the volume is turned to 0 or greater does any sound come out and it is still very quiet...

Can I hook my car subwoofer up to my home audio receiver?
[2008-01-18 21:06:36]

I know that most home audio receivers are 8 ohms, well I have a dual voice coil sub and each is rated at 4 ohms, so if I wire it to 8 ohms like this - http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=1&I=42 - Would I be able to plug my sub directly into the back of my audio receiver...

Samsung HT-BD8200 2.1-Channel Blu-ray Home Theater System (htib) Review Bigpicturebigsound.com

BD-Live (and Kicking) Without Wires

Soundbars are a compact convenience which, at their best, can create a convincing home theater audio experience from a single speaker array. Samsung , the company that made a Blu-ray player the size of a pancake, but much prettier (the BD-P4600 ) has taken their top-secret micro-Blu-ray technology and--when  no one was looking (spies, you know)--found a way to fuse a fully-featured BD Profile 2.0 player inside their sleek new soundbar.

But it gets better: There's a ".1" in this abbreviated home-theater-in-a-box, thanks to the 230-watt, rear-firing/rear-ported subwoofer. And to make things really interesting, while the subwoofer is a separate standalone box, for enhanced performance, it's also wireless for maximum convenience. Put it all together and you have the HT-BD8200 2.1-Channel Blu-ray Home Theater System .

Within the wings of the HT-BD8200 soundbar are two integrated (horizontally positioned) tall-boy loudspeakers. Like many other aspects of this package, these speakers utilize existing Samsung technologies, namely their BioKelp cones, driven by their hi-fi digital Crystal Amplifier, both of which could be heard in the Samsung HT-AS730ST Home Theater Receiver with 5.1 Speaker System. At the center is a wonderfully svelte vertical Blu-ray player with a motorized pocket that extends forward, accepting and ejecting discs to/from a top slot, although the loading mechanism needs a little encouragement before swallowing a disc. Nifty little LEDs and other animated lights appear during startup and power-down.

Look for the number of channels it has. Either 5.1 or 7.1
Look for the wattage or power of the receiver. They are sometimes listed in different standards. Some list peak power and others list theirs by RMS. Also look at the output impedance of the receiver and get one that matches your...
