Pyle 5.1Ch 350W Receiver

@SayLaV

4 ohms? That’s what live sound engineers use. Oh excuse me it’s sometimes 2 ohms. i don;t get the big deal. Buy some good speakers (B&W) and use them at any ohms.

is it weird i have been singing Wootalyzer to the chorus of Womanizer by Britney Spears over and over in my head? I’m trying to make up lyrics for the versus, but i’m only one verse into the song.

You you you are, You You you are
Using Wootalyzer, Use that Wootalyzer baby…
You you you are, You You you are
Using Wootalyzer Wootalyzer Wootalyzer. (B. Oh. C.)

Woot don’t try to front
ooh-oh - you know just what I wa-a-ant.

I would buy it just because it has knobs. For several years receivers mainly had buttons. It’s easier to twist a knob to “7” then to press “UP” 7 times. And knobs remember their position where buttons tend to lose their memory with a power surge or outage. Yeah, knobs are good.

all the knobs i have on electronics now will not hold their memory in a power failure. They use magnets to tell the system you are turning the knob “up” or “down”. It’s how you get knobs that can turn and turn and turn with no end. Once they lose power though, they just reset to default

Still wondering what year it is.

It’s 2012. Does this happen to you often? I can see not knowing the day of the month sometimes but the year? Something ain’t right.

The last woot off with a good amount of craps in a bag was May, they need to go back to the old servers when it didn’t crash and the craps flew off the shelves easily. Yet the people in charge clearly either don’t care that the bags don’t work anymore or just don’t want to fix it.

Wootanizer, wootan-wootanizer, you’re a wootanizer
Oh, wootanizer, oh, you’re a wootanizer baby
You, you-you are, you, you-you are
Wootanizer, wootanizer, wootanizer

Damn you for this! Earworm hell…

You’re new around these parts. We’ve never had had servers that didn’t crash. It’s part of our heritage.

7?? What’s a 7? Mine start at 8 and go up from there.

@renrutnairbwoot

What are the chances they will go 2 woot-offs in a row without any bags of crap?

Reasonably high I think…seeing as they had bags Mon-Thurs of last week (if you knew where to look… ).

EXACTLY!!!

[syninthecity]

on topic, i need a reciever as the heart of a surround sound system.

the two rear speakers would be wireless, the two front would be wired. I’ve bought no speakers yet

Is this a good receiver for me?

is it easy to set up? what are ohms and can anyone tell me in small words why they matter 4 vs 8?

@SayLaV

I thought the Pyle was on Pot. I think these are true “pots”. They have a beginning and an end. Even my Marantz that has auto seeking still works as a pot and BTW if you lose power - uh DUH?

@Holysin

I seriously doubt there will be. Last woot off no BOC, the previous wootoff 50 some sold before the severs died.

However as far as the receiver goes… the power output is listed @ 4ohm??? That means standard (8ohm) speakers will receive ~50% of the 50W power listed?

wow. that’s just crappy? shouldn’t this be in a bag…

That’s actually quite normal. speakers should be equal or higher ohm. I can’t imagine anyone would push a system higher than 250w total with this system.
