I was going over to my friends house on Saturday for his little girl's birthday party and I spotted a receiver in his neighbor's garage, I couldn't tell what brand it was cause it was facing backwards. I went over to his house again today and this time his neighbor was in his garage so I walked over and asked him if he was interested in selling his receiver. He said it didn't work but if I wanted he'd just give it to me, of course I was cool with that cause my other buddy is an electronics repair man by trade so I figured I'd have him fix it.
When he handed it to me I noticed it was a Yamaha RX-750, sweet, then he proceeded to tell me that it only works when the "Pure Direct" button is pressed. I got home and looked it up and found that "Pure Direct" gives you a pure source output because it bypasses the bass/treble/loudness circuits elimination any muddying of the signal due to circuit routing.
I haven't hooked it up yet, will do so tomorrow. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with this receiver/amp/preamp. If it works, I'll just use it instead of the AudioSource Amp100 I was gonna order to run my Insignia NS-B2111's on my PC setup. Won't I be able to play with the bass/treble settings via my AudioTrak Prodigy HD2 soundcard once it gets here on Wednesday?
