Bought in the early 90s to enter the world of DSP and Dolby Surround. <br><br>This is due to the acquisition of the 24 Caprices of Paganini recorded by Michael Rabin in 1958 CAPITOL (EMI 1993), but in a sublime interpretation miking terribly lackluster and a repulsive coldness that I decided to m equip this new technology. <br><br>Seeking an amp that can make me enjoy formats audiovideo the moment but also giving me the opportunity to change my sound environment while being able to supply the most satisfactory manner my B & W D630, all without me ruining it m ' was advised by the seller. After listening (with the same model speakers), unconvinced by Yamaha, and conquered by its elegant design, it replaced a LUXMAN LV-100 a bit weak. <br><br>Announced power 8ohms 2x55 RMS with less than 0.08% of DTH. Characteristics were satisfactory for listening to audio in a space average. <br><br>In practice, the amp was more than satisfactory in use as Audio (with or without DSP) in Audio / Video (Dolby Surround) and until today. <br><br>Associated with B & W (and to MARTIN Speakers in rear channels) and used almost always in 4.0 with DSP Jazz Club + DSP logic for the films he made in use audio, instruments present and detailed sets (and the possibility of hear Mr Rabin as if it were in front of me) voices and precise effects in detonating use A / V <br><br>Offered with a comprehensive remote control to adjust all of the sofa and a string of input and output connections, comfort was total! <br><br>Far beyond today A / V, and after 20 years of loyal service, the beast begins to show signs of weakness, left channel to the sentence, it will be replaced. His replacement will he give me as much as this KENWOOD KA-V8500 has given me all these years? <br><br>To see and hear ... <br><br>:) <br><br>Features: <br>Total Power: 370W <br>WxHxD 440x162x432mm <br>16kg <br>Audio: Phono, Tape, DAT, CD, Tuner, AUX <br>Video: Video 1, Video 2, Video 3, DBS / TV, VDP, S-Video, AV AUX <br>HP Output: 2x Front, 2x Center, 2x Rear. + PRE OUT: Subwoofer, Center, 2x Front, 2x Rear <br>His selection: <br>BYPASS (stereo) <br>3 Stereo (front + front) <br>DSP (DSP) <br>DSP LOGIC (Dolby Surround + DSP) <br>PROLOGIC (Dolby Surround), <br>Mode: 2 front, 2 front + front, 4 front + rear + front + front 5 rear. <br>DSP effects: 1 Movie Theater, Movie Theater 2, 3 Movie Theater, Jazz Club, Stadium, Arena, Opera, Cathedral. <br>Any and all configurable remote!
