Alternatives for Yamaha HTiB YHT-392 (Pune)

[girish_sutar]

Hi Guys,

After reading all features for YHT-392, I thought of freezing on this product. I liked the overall performance of the speakers & sub and also the features available in the AVR HTR-6230 which i heard at Vijay Sales, Pune.

However thought of asking the experts here if there are any alternatives available to YHT-392 for below of my preferences -
Watching Airtel STB 40%, Music 40%, Movies 20%
Budget between - 30K to 35K
Roomsize - 11X15

I have checked with Vijay Sales and eZone in Pune but could not find products other that Onkyo, Yamaha & Sensei. Had also visited Bose, but definitely way beyond budget.
Are there any other places where I can find more alternatives in Pune with above budget?

Regards,
Girish

This package is
AV Receiver RX-V465
5.1-Channel Speaker Package NS-P270
right?

Buy RX-V 465 Sepratly
Im Mumbai Alfa price was 18 k with bill and warentee if I am not mistaken
Spend rest on speakers as yamaha low end speakers are bad

A suggestion JBLS Basic 5.1 package ( I think SBS 140) is available in hypercity @ Rs 13 or 14 k with JBL headphones free.IMHO better package than Yamaha

or stretch a little bit and buy a decent 5.1 package.

@hemant
YHT-392 would be HTR-6230 receiver + NS-P380 5.1 Speakers

@girish
u can go with hemant's suggestion, get the RX-V465 + some decent speakers
someone has posted in the price thread that the Mission MV-DS is available for 17k at Vijay Sales, check them out

Hello Girish

Shouldn't you be looking at future proofing your purchase? I feel anyone who is buying an AVR ought to have Lossless decoders like Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio decoders on board and not just HDMI pass through but HDMI input to actually process those lossless audio.

I didn't see any of those features in 392's specifications. 6230 might be a better choice, but you ought to be auditioning some more (especially Onk and Den) before you zero in.

Best,

Deepchand

Girish,

Irrespective of anything, you ought to have DTS HD-MA, and Dolby TrueHD decoders on board and HDMI I/Os actually doing the job.

Onkyo 3300 seems to be a cheaper and better option, also because of it's more than decent AVR, which decodes HD Audio and DTS Master Audio etc. (which the Yamaha RX-V465 does too, btw).

 

[girish_sutar]

Thanks for all your valuable feedbacks and i am definitely going to relook at my options. Yamaha RX V365/465 which i would like to explore alongwith JBL/Mission is what i would like to explore, however would they match with the AVR?
Also what would Polka Audio cost me for a 5.1 speakers?

 

[hemantwaghe]

Polka Audio

it is POlk Audio!!!!hyeah:hyeah:hyeah:

Thinking of something naughty,sutar sahb? ( For non maharashtrians-Plka means blouse!)

[girish_sutar]

Thanks Everyone!
Makes sense of whatever you have suggested.

You guys have really helped me to finalize on good future ready receiver i.e Yamaha RX-V465.

I had also checked the JBL speakers to support this at the Sound Factor yeseterday, but somehow found them little too loud and thumping, lot of punch, is it because of the Harman/Kardon AVR to which it was connected.

Will these speakers go absoultely well with RX-V465?

 

[yogeshtulsiani]

if you are keen to buy the RX-V465 from ebay.in (coupon & emi advantage), the distributor has informed me that the 465 will be on deals of the week tomorrow for Rs.19,990/- free shipping with bill & warranty

Deals of the week - No coupon can be used
BTW Max coupoun I saw is of 1000

Still retail value is better ,only advantage may be EMI ,that to restricted to very few banks.

0% EMI would be restricted to ICICI CC. In terms of discount coupon, I thought coupons work on the first day of the deal. Also vodafone users can avail of the 25% max Rs.750 off (not sure how the vodafone coupon works thought)
