  Hi Guys,
  Any idea if this amp can control the center speaker volume individually ?

  Thanks

    Well, bottom line, you can.

    But it is not a control on the panel or in the remote. You can go to setup and adjust the level for each speaker.

    Hope that helps.

      Thanks so much for your reply. How would you enter the setup if not on the remote or on the panel ?

      I've got a Bose 3 2 1 and I am just so tired of not being able to hear the voice while the background noise is too loud

        I think he means its not a simple volume button to press on the panel or remote, you do however have to use the remote to get to the setup menu.
        I have an older Yamaha receiver and I can change the levels individually, so i'm sure this one is exactly the same. It's more of a set and leave option though, wouldn't want to be trying to change it to often, would just be hard work.

  You can provide a fixed dB increase for the centre speaker (e.g. centre speaker is always +2.5dB higher than anything else), but you can't "just" control the centre speaker volume. Does that answer your question ?

    That answers it perfectly, Bing Lee were fully stumped with the question. I called and asked they still haven't called me back wit ha reply.

    Thank for that DJ. Sold !

      In addition, don't forget you use the little microphone that comes with the receiver to balance the speakers to suit your room & where you sit and you can also toggle on A.DRC when playing a movie late at night with the volume down, so when the actors are mumbling for effect it can be a bit easier to hear what they are saying…. I have an older Yamaha and it's pretty good….. Tempting to update though…;-)

  Is HDMI "Standby through with input select" the same as audio standby pass-through? :)

  • 

    DJ on 30/08/2013 - 13:34

    It will pass through the HDMI signal to the destination (TV, projector etc.) without the amplifier powering the speakers (e.g. in standby).

  I bargained a pair purchase the other week with this system with Galaxy note8 4g, and the yamaha yht399 went down to 500… I get the feeling they're clearing stock for anew model or something? You could always try pushing them for more of a bargain in store…

  To be honest, I kinda wish I'd gone for the yht299. I wanted the 399 for dlna, but haven't managed to get it to appear as a play destination on my home network. So I can't send music to it from my phone…. So it needs the telly on and its clunky file browser interface just so I can play music from the network…… Boo.
