Sony STR-DA5300ES (Elevated Standard – Audiophile-Grade) Receiver/Amplifier – 7x120Watts True RMS (Semi-FAULTY – pls read) R 4,900 With remote. If this receiver worked perfectly, I'd sell it for R 10,000. The firmware is available for 100 percent functionality – pls read. As it only has a problem with digital processing, it’s core purpose as an audiophile-grade amplifier can still be fulfilled; I'm selling it for R 4,900. When testing the amp it works 100% with analogue input. But when I try the DSP options, it will sometimes, randomly, go into protection. Research revealed this is a common problem with quite a few of the flagship receivers from that time, and to do with the newer digital formats that needed processing. Fortunately, it's just a simple firmware update, which I have but I don't have the right cable to install it (USB-to-RS232 Serial). A friend in Orange Grove, JHB, has the cable and can do the update for you. If the update works, then you have scored HUGE. If the update doesn't work, this friend is also selling an even higher-grade Lexicon AV-12HD AV processor for R 4,900. So, for a minimum of R 4,900, you'll own a 7-channel audiophile-grade power amplifier, with bi-amp capabilities. For a trip to Orange Grove, or DIY with the firmware and instructions I’ll give you, you’ll get a 100% operational audiophile-grade receiver. In Summary:Sony STR-DA5300ES receiver with firmware data and update instructions (you’ll need a USB-to-serial RS232 converter for DIY) – R 4,900.Firmware update labour option – R 500 whether it works or not, but not charged if the Lexicon processor discounted option is exercised.Lexicon AV-12HD Processor standard price – R 5,900.Lexicon AV-12HD processor discounted option if taken along with Sony STR-DA5300ES – R 4,900. Sony ES – Elevated Standard (Audiophile-grade)The Elevated Standard by Sony, is a vastly superior amplifier/receiver, to the “ordinary” Sony range. Essentially the engineers are given carte blanche to create a “proper” amp, which obviously costs more and slots into the high-end range.120 Watts True RMS X 7 Power Amplifier (8 ohms, 20Hz – 20kHz, 0.09% THD)HDMI "Active Intelligence1" (6 inputs/1 output)2nd Room HD video distribution via component video2nd Room HD audio distributionDigital Cinema Auto Calibration with stereo micSuperior audio performanceUp to 8 channels of Linear PCM audio plus Dolby Labs® (Dolby Digital +/Dolby TruHD) and dts® (DTS HDFeatures: 7.1 channel, 120W x 7(True RMS into 8 ohms), HDMI (6 in/1 out), 1080p upscaling, Faroudja DCDi, XMB GUI, BRAVIA Theatre Sync, Digital Media Port, Dolby TrueHD/DTS-HD MA, Digital Cinema Auto Calibration, Sirius/XM ready.CASH ONLYR 4,900 Not Negotiable Kwaggasrand, Pretoria Westmellyalang@yahoo.co.ukview email…+27680648979view more https://www.facebook.com/al.pal.58/ – Al Pal Toohttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572204276334- I Know An Al
