Well if you are looking for major brands in HT,then Denon,Onkyo,Yamaha,Marantz are leaders.
Sony ,Pioneer entered in this catagory recently.All product mentioned are origined in Japan.Denon has complited 100yrs & Onkyo >60yr.

They are even known for professional audio for long.

why to go for unknown onkyo!PONKYO! denon! menon!CHINESE-korean kachdaa! .Is it more worthful than sony( PIONEER[/B]) or this is a site for advertising - promoting business of unbranded unguaranteed items please clarify.I' M in a confusion.

Denon, Onkyo - unknown, unbranded, 'un-gauranteed', kachada? I don't know whether to laugh or feel insulted.

Mr. Bharath, my pure friend, I would suggest you do a little bit of work before you make such sweeping statements/questions. To use your choice of language, Sony is a 'baccha' when it comes to home theater and your 'Ponkyo' and 'Menon' are long time 'Dadas'.

Cheers

Mr. Bharat, your post comes across as flame bait and pretty much insulting, esp the part about this site promoting 'unbranded, unguaranteed' items. If I have misunderstood, pl forgive and re phrase your post suitably.

 

[mnhegde]

+ 1 to what Venkat said. The "Chinese-Korean ..........." you mentioned are the "Champions" of A/V world, Brother. No one would accept such statements. Please choose the words carefully.

 

[psychotropic]

Dude Bharat, why the hell are you on this site if you think it is for "unbranded" products? We admit that we are fools on this site obsessing about unbranded kachada brands, and are not familiar with the really high quality brands like Sony. You shouldn't ask for advice on this site, because here we only know about the kachda stuff and none of your really high end Sony and Pioneer home theaters in a box, that give you "more thumping music and bass."

None of the sytems that anyone advises you to buy here will give you "more thumping music and bass", so why don't you rely on what makes your own ears (and wallet) happy and go pick up your Sony. May you have a thumping musical experience.

Be warned, people like venkatcr and spirovious will try and mislead you by telling you that Onkyo and Denon are reputed....it is merely a ruse to deprive you of thumping music....don't fall for it.....stick to Sony and you'll be happy.

 

[soulforged]

+1 to iAudio...it is a flame bait...and I'll bite...

Go for Sony or better still Bose. Don't think of Onkyo/ponkyo, Denon/menon...and defintely not UMC/shoeMC, Outlaw/shoutlaw and the likes...

Going by your logic, Maruti is a better car then Bugatti since Bugatti is unknown here...

 

[spirovious]

Relax friends,
I think he is new ti Hifi world.I have seen many people around me who knows only SONY as premium brand.
When I show my HT(onkyo),they will ask why did not you go for sony.
I also feel as same as Venkat & others. :lol:
He has asked a straight Q so that he feels secured.

He has to learn & do the homework(rather google work).

 

[soulforged]

U r right Spiro...but like mnhegde puts it...its the choice of words...and no sign of google-homework...

i am suri, very well experienced and knowing hell lot about audeo-vidio world items.- you can listen to me and have good knowledge from newbie level to fully experienced level.

i am telling to you to go for the HT-DDW-5500 - the punching and thumping is better level than 5000 - full bassy effect for thunderclap and attacking mode in action movies - "Tropic Thunder" you can feel full bomb-blasts in your chaddi!

welcome to SONY world - the speakers having yellow cones - very attraction, than the black cones of denon and onkyo speakers.

enjoy!!

 

[venkatcr]

Psycho, in appreciation of your kind words, next time we meet I am going to gift you with a high end Sony 12-in-1 made in USA.

Some untold stories of Sony --- for those who respect and care...

Every now and then the Sony people make amazing products and sometimes they even sell these exceptional components for a surprisingly low retail price. While these products may not quite provide state-of-the-art audio performance, they are superb and a bargain for ordinary folks like us.

Three notable components fall into this category: Sony SCD-1 (SACD player), 777ES SACD player and DVP-S9000ES DVD/SACD player. They have battleship like construction quality even exceeding that of high-end products costing far more. The last one, DVP-S9000ES was introduced for < $1,500. With some improvements like a good isolation platform, it performs wonderfully well both in DVD video and SACD audio. Even redbook CDs sound great.

Since Sony decided to attend to mass market customers, a cottage industry has sprung up (especially in USA) specialising in modifying Sony products to satisfy the needs of more demanding audiophiles. Replacement of electrical parts with quality stuffs as well as some mechanical improvement to reduce jitter, the Sony players like DVP-S9000ES land in another level.

It is a pity that a company like Sony who has the capability to produce quality stuffs now fights for survival with mediocre items.

At the same time, let us not berate a name like Sony. By the way, I had tried several times in the last few years to locate a quality Sony product in India but never succeeded. Where there are customers who look for quality products and do not go by price alone, I am sure Sony will be there with some of their excellent creations. I feel sad when seeing in this forum tens of thousands of views on price list, best deals etc with hardly a handful in more serious postings like D-I-Y, merits of components and accessories etc. May be a similar reason why Pioneer, considered another mass market brand, never came here (officially) with their Kuro plasmas which no doubt are the best in the planet. And let us not lift brands like Marantz and Denon to higher pedestals; they are no longer what they were, and when someone says they are "Japanese originated", I believe they sell these stuffs.

Let me hope one day companies like Sony and Pioneer will bring into our country their top-of-the-line products.

cheers.

are you suggesting that bharatpure should buy sony HTIB ?

or you want to correct wayward posters?

BTW - Sony makes superior broadcast quality video systems, but that does not mean that one should not deride their (extremely poor) HTIB systems.

Suri-ji, I fear it may not be sufficient as it may not go thru thick materials of jeanpant. Will this system have bass boost facility?

Murali, there are many companies in that unique situation. In addition to Sony that makes a few exceptional products, there is Teac whose Esoteric products are stuff of legends. But would you recommend a Teac AVR for that reason?

Sony set fire to the world with their Walkman, but Apple walked away with honours as far as hard drive based portable systems go. And in the case of Apple, it was not the product, per se, but iTunes that spelt the doom of other competitors.

Sony is a large company with excellent marketing as well as technical capabilities. But because of the unique business environment of Japan, there are some companies that are allowed to dominate in some segments. And it cannot be denied that Onkyo, Marantz, Yamaha and Denon dominate in the world of multi channel receivers. Sony has got into this market very late and has never been able to get a foothold inspite of the fact that some of the receivers did get some good reviews. And like Pioneer did with their Kuro TVs, Sony may one day exit out of the multi channel receiver market.

Why Pioneer did not come to India could be because they did not see a market large enough to justify the investment. Or, it could be because they do not have a large product range as Sony, LG, Samsung and others have. Even Panasonic's foray into India is half hearted at best. Even in places such as Dubai, companies such as Sony, LG, and Samsung have a much stronger presence.

Sony is a respected company, and I have used a Walkman extensively. Even today I have a Sony three in one that I have been using for ten years in my bedroom. But what we have to understand is the strength of each company in particular product areas or domains. As Suri said, when it comes to professional recording or broadcast system, hardly anyone can touch Sony. But to make a sweeping statement that the Denon and Onkyo are trash is what gets our goat.

And I am sure our friend Mr Pure Bharath was never thinking with the vast canvas that you have in mind.

Cheers

Sir,
I don"t know how to guide you. Your query itself says that you are in predetermined mood with the products available ,their quality and your opinion about this forum. I don"t think you need guidance from the members. Just audition the two sony products you mentioned and pick one of them you like.

Regards

To answer your questions, and since you appear to be from Kerala, let me point out the business of hotels those pilgrims visiting Sabarimala every season have to eat from. Practically all roadside restaurants and hotels generally serving only fish and meat suddenly turn their boards around when the season starts and cars and buses come in clusters from neighbouring states:

"Swamiye Saranamayyappa. Vegetarian hotel. Lunch ready".

It doesn't matter where the pilgrims eat from. They are all alike and are masters in this process of dual identity. Mr. bharatpure, for his tastes, can buy anything, whether Sony, Onkyo, Pioneer, Denon, Marantz etc etc.

cheers.
