Cook, Jony Ive and Craig Federighi talk about the new iPhones, market share and the competition
Only a week after the big
iPhone 5S/5C reveal
and a day before their launch,
CEO Tim Cook says he isn't worried about iPhone market share, and even managed to throw a few stones at the likes of Nokia and Google's Android.
Bloomberg BusinessWeek's
Sam Grobart sat down with Cook to talk about Apple's place in the mobile market, and whether Cook is worried that competitors like Android will continue gaining market share in various areas as Apple continues to offer luxury-priced phones that appeal to only certain markets.
"There's always a large junk part of the market," said Cook during the interview. "We're not in the junk business. There's a segment of the market that really wants a product that does a lot for them, and I want to compete like crazy for those customers. I'm not going to lose sleep over that other market, because it's just not who we are. Fortunately, both of these markets are so big, and there's so many people that care and want a great experience from their phone or their tablet, that Apple can have a really good business."
Apple recently announced the expected high-end iPhone 5S, which has a starting unsubsidized price of $650. The iPhone 5C, which was believed to be a budget version of the iPhone for emerging markets like China, was expected
to be priced at a "budget" range
. However, its unsubsidized price is only $100 less than the 5S.
While Apple is working hard to make deals with China Unicom, China Telecom and China Mobile, many wondered if Apple would be able to sell to this market considering the still-high price of the iPhone 5C.

"We never had an objective to sell a low-cost phone," said Cook. "Our primary objective is to sell a great phone and provide a great experience, and we figured out a way to do it at a lower cost."
Google's Android is a good example of an operating system that spans both high and low end smartphones, offering a vast price range for those looking to shop on either side of the spectrum. This gives Android the ability to reach various markets, and continue gaining market share. In fact, IDC said nearly 80 percent of the world's smartphones run Android. It also said the average unsubsidized price for a smartphone fell from $450 to $375 last year.
But Cook brushes this off, saying that customers tend to buy Android devices and dump them in a drawer while an iPhone is the smartphone they truly use.
"Does a unit of market share matter if it's not being used? For us, it matters that people use our products. We really want to enrich people's lives, and you can't enrich somebody's life if the product is in the drawer."
Cook added that he doesn't see Android as just one entity competing against Apple. Rather, the operating system is so fragmented that many users are running versions as old as Gingerbread from three years ago.
Here's a breakdown: About 45 percent of Android users are on Jelly Bean, the latest version of Android, while 31 percent are still on Gingerbread and 22 percent are on Ice Cream Sandwich. Apple says 93 percent of its users were on iOS 6 at the end of June.
iPhone 5S
"And so by the time they exit, they're using an operating system that's three or four years old," said Cook. "That would be like me right now having in my pocket iOS 3. I can't imagine it."
Apple's idea is that having one company work on both the hardware and the software makes a big difference when it comes to user experience, instead of Google's method where Android is given out to various hardware manufacturers like Samsung.
Jony Ive (senior vice president of Design at Apple) and Craig Federighi (senior vice president of Software Engineering at Apple) -- who also took part in the interview -- agreed that the new iPhones marry hardware and software better than other smartphones. And while the iPhone doesn't receive new OS versions or updates as often as Android, they said that Apple doesn't just push out new features for the sake of having them; they take the time to perfect them, and make them better than anyone else.
"New? New is easy. Right is hard," said Federighi.
Cook also addressed the Apple/Microsoft comparison of the 1990s, where Microsoft licensed its Windows operating system to hardware makers like Dell and Hewlett-Packard while Apple only used its operating system on its own Mac hardware line. This allowed Microsoft to gain a ton of market share at that time while Apple's plummeted, and many wonder if Apple is making the same mistake in its competition with Android.
Speaking of Microsoft, Cook said the recent $7.2 billion purchase of Nokia's devices and services unit shows that more companies are trying to follow Apple's lead. He also took a jab at Nokia, saying that it's failure to innovate led to its end as a mobile leader.
"Everybody is trying to adopt Apple's strategy," said Cook. "We're not looking for external validation of our strategy, but I think it does suggest that there's a lot of copying, kind of, on the strategy and that people have recognized that importance.
"I think [Nokia] is a reminder to everyone in business that you have to keep innovating and that to not innovate is to die."
The iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C hit store shelves tomorrow, and while iPhone market share sits below that of Android and
Apple stock has taken a dive
since its $700+ high last September, Cook believes that the company is doing the right thing.

Tim Alpers announced today that he will vie with incumbent Vikki Bauer for the Mono County District 3 Supervisor seat. District 3 includes part of Mammoth Lakes,and the communities of Lee Vining, June Lake and points north to Conway Summit.
Dr. Andrew Bourne's contract with Mammoth Hospital has been terminated, according to spokeswoman Lori Ciccarrelli, "because he cannot fulfill its terms at this time."
Mammoth will throw a "WELCOME HOME" party for Olympian Meb Keflezighi this evening at the Village, according to the Mammoth Visitors Bureau.
Meb Keflizighi of the Mammoth Track Club won the U.S. National Marathon Olympic Trial Saturday in Houston, setting a personal record along the way.
Ryan Hall, a former Mammoth runner who split away from the Mammoth Track Club more than a year ago, placed second.
Bail was reduced from $1 million each to $750,000 each for Dr. Andrew Bourne and Joe Walker Tuesday at a hearing in Santa Barbara.

This diamond Anniversary ring is marvelous! I bought it to go with my engagement ring and it fits perfectly and beautifully! The diamonds are stunning and the price is even more amazing! I'm so happy with this purchase!
I bought this for my wife to celebrate our 20th anniversary. I can tell you that she absolutely adores it. We bought a modest wedding band 20 years ago and she loves the way that this accentuates and adds to her original setting. This ring is also big enough that she will many times wear it alone and it looks fantastic just by itself. She wears it instead of her wedding ring when doing an activity that might damage the setting in her original wedding band. As for the looks of the ring itself I was surprised at how much she and I love it. It really sparkles and the diamonds look great with no visible blemishes. I looked everywhere before purchasing this ring and simply could not find this quality at this price anywhere. If your considering it I highly recommend it.
Sooo pretty! I love it and the customer service was so easy to deal with when I had to exchange the ring for another size! Thanks so much!
I first bought a 1/4k but it turned out to be too small so I ordered this one which was just right. It was(is) beautiful and we used it as a wedding ring. I secondly learned that returning something to Overstock was a snap and THAT is important to me as it will definitely mean I'll be much more inclined to order from them again.
We purchased this ring as a wedding band since we aren't likely to celebrate a lot of anniversaries! We found true love in our late 50's, and this ring was the perfect symbol of that love.
I bought this ring to replace a similar ring that was stolen in a house break-in. The ring is beautiful and the diamonds are a nice uniform color.
A beautiful ring that sparkles and shine. I got several comments around the office.
I wanted a another ring to go with my wedding ring and since my husband has no idea I went shopping. This ring fits beautifully with the one I have and I couldn't come anywhere near matching the price I found at Overstock at outside stores. I initially bought the 1/2 carat ring but the stones were too small and I am very glad I got this one instead. It sparkles, it shines and I have had many compliments.
I really like the ring overall. However, it did have some cuts in the gold and the part of the ring opposite the diamonds is very thin. I was most impressed with how Overstock handled my initial problem. The first ring they sent me, the diamonds were cloudy and really clashed against my engagement ring. They took care of it right away and sent me another replacement where the diamonds were much better and was a better match. Again, I am very pleased with the ring, it definitely sparkles and catches one's eye. I would recommend this ring to anyone.
I got this ring as an anniversay gift from my husband. I had been hinting for years that I wanted to upgrade my wedding band, and this ring really did the trick. The diamonds are a good size, very sparkly, and the gold is thick and solid. I have very small fingers, and this ring is about as big as I will go (along with my engagement ring). I believe this is an excellent price for the value. He was very leary about ordering online, but overstock has such an easy returns policy, he gave it a shot. I'm glad he did!

by Marshall Chase Yamaha AVENTAGE® — Premium design and performance Yamaha designed their AVENTAGE series of receivers from the ground up with sound quality as the ultimate goal. They paid attention to the little details that add up to better performance — from a solidly built double-bottomed chassis, to separate power supplies for digital and analog circuitry. And to top it off, AVENTAGE receivers are backed by a three-year warranty. Outstanding picture quality in two places at once The RX-A3020 has dual-room/dual-source HDMI output. That means you can enjoy the big game on your living room A/V system, while a family member watches a Blu-ray movie on the bedroom TV. Plus this receiver advanced HQV® Vida™ video processing that optimizes all the video signals passing through to your TVs. Powerful noise reduction and video scaling can even clean up your lower-resolution sources. If you're a movie buff with a DVD collection, you'll see a sharper, more detailed picture with your old favorites. Unleash your iTunes® library and AirPlay® AirPlay lets you stream music from your iTunes collection directly to your Yamaha receiver, either from a networked computer or right from your iPhone®, iPad®, or iPod touch®. Not only do you get a fast and convenient way to listen to your favorites, but anyone in your home can stream from their player to share their latest find. The free Yamaha A/V Controller app gives you easy touchscreen control over the RX-A3020 with your smartphone or tablet. The RX-A3020 has a direct digital input on the front panel, so you can plug your iPod touch, iPhone or iPad directly in. That's definitely convenient, but it also sounds better than an ordinary analog connection, because it bypasses the iPod's audio circuitry and use the receiver's instead. This connection even charges your iPod when it's turned off. Free remote app for Apple® and Android™ devices Yamaha offers a free, downloadable app for both Apple® and Android™ devices that you can use to control your system with ease. That's especially handy when you're using the receiver for a multi-room setup, because you can control it from anywhere in your home where your smartphone or tablet can get a Wi-Fi® signal. AirPlay requires a wireless home network and a wired connection between the receiver and network. Enjoy HD Radio™ and your record collection The RX-A3020 comes with a built-in HD Radio tuner so you can enjoy digital high-definition programs from your favorite area HD Radio stations. With 40 memory presets, there's plenty of space to save regular and multi-cast stations that you just can't get without this special type of radio tuner. And since vinyl is back, this receiver features a phono input so you can connect aturntable for warm sound with your record collection. Your broadband entertainment network The RX-A3020's Ethernet port opens the door to a world of fresh, new listening options. Thousands of Internet radio stations from every corner of the world are at your fingertips. And music files streamed from your networked PC are just a touch away. The possibilities seem endless. Flexible connection options With nine channels of power, this receiver can drive speakers in a number of different configurations depending on your setup. Enjoy surround sound in your home theater with as many as nine speakers re-creating involving special effects. Or enjoy seven-channel surround sound and use the other two channels to bi-amp your front speakers for better sound. Or listen to stereo speakers in another room. Yamaha's Intelligent Amp Assign feature lets you set up multiple speakers to share the same amp channels — like outdoor speakers for Zone 2 and back surround speakers in a 9.1-channel surround setup — and the receiver will send power to the correct speakers for whatever you're playing.

Superb Written By CG, New York on Tuesday, January 13, 2015 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Fantastic receiver. I originally purchased the RX-A1040, but upon recommendation from both Yamaha and Klipsch, I returned it for the RX-A3020. The RX-A3020 has many of the features of the RX-A1040, but is rated at 150 WPC which is recommended to drive the Klipsch RF-82's. Receiver is performing tremendously and with all of the large selections of inputs and outputs this should function well for many years to come. Remote is great as is the Yamaha AV app on my iPhone. Glad I was able to purchase this receiver as I had looked at many other brands and models before this became available. Pros: Clean power, very little distortion, large variety of inputs. Cons: None
Yamaha products impress Written By UKColin, Memphis on Monday, September 08, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit is a full step up from my previous Yamaha RX-V671 that worked great. More power 150w vs 95w, Airplay that works great & more solid unit. Kinda miss not having iPod Dock although Airplay makes it obsolete . Will be bi-amping my main speakers using the YAO mic to balance them all. No problems, huge downloadable manual covers everything so far.
Impressive Performance Written By Ed, Wilmington, NC on Friday, June 27, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Overall the 3020 is a fantastic performer. I'm coming from a succession of mid to upper tier Onkyo Receiver/Amps which have, until recently, performed relatively well and offered excellent features for their cost. The last Onkyo died just outside of warranty so I was wanting to step up a level. The Yamaha is a tremendous improvement and solves a number of problems for me. With 3 powered zones I was able to pull a second amp out of my rack which had been driving a pair of outdoor speakers. Also, unlike Onkyo's offerings, the output sound to zones 2 and 3 is not limited to analog devices, you can output any source to any/all of the zones. It's loaded with power and I can't imagine having enough input devices to come close to maxing it out. Since I've only had it about 3 weeks I'm still learning its tricks and will have to follow this review up later once I've run the YPAO configuration and fully integrated my home network. The sound quality is definitely a step up from the Onkyos. The only thing that keeps it from being a clear "5" is that the remote is a little tedious - especially the functionality of Macro modes - although it will do virtually everything you need once its finally configured. Pros: Clean sound and great power Easy access to multi zone music Tons of inputs and HDMI outputs (even to Zone2) Relatively easy configuration - menus are very intuitive Great flexibility Cons: Remote can be somewhat clunky - for a unit at this level I'm thinking touch screen LCD is in order.
One Glaring Flaw Written By Robert D, Pittsburgh, PA on Wednesday, June 25, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is a great piece of equipment, with one glaring flaw. In its effort to make everything idiot-proof by automating simple functions, Yamaha, in its infinite wisdom, has decided to tell you how to utilize your 9 channels of power by giving you a choice of preset configurations. I would be happy with 9 channels, one connected to each pair of speaker outputs. But Yamaha has done the thinking for you, and if you don't fit into its preconceived amp configurations, you are out of luck. I have a 5.1 system with one zone. One channel to each of my 5 speaker setup, one each to the zone speakers, and two channels left over to biamp my front mains. Simple, right? Nope. After consulting with my Crutchfield rep, and he with Yamaha's rep, it appears that Yamaha doesn't offer that configuration, so I am left in the absurd position of having 2 channels unused and two mains I can't biamp. Yamaha, I'm not a dolt, and I don't need you to preconfigure my amp outputs. Thanks, but no thanks. If you can think, check your receiver to see if you can do with it what you want. Big Brother Yamaha is watching. Pros: build quality, video and audio quality Cons: amp pre-configuration modes may not fit in with your system needs
Solid Receiver Written By ELH, Southeastern MI on Tuesday, June 17, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have 2 of these units, one feeding my Home Theatre Room and one (refurb) feeding my gym ( also used as spare in case main theatre breaks down). The home theatre unit is running 11.2 channels. I also have a Denon X4000 feeding my bedroom equipment. Sound quality is pretty good. Switching (HDMI) functionality is good also. While, I like the unit, I am having a heard time getting good sound distinction coming from the rear heights and rear surrounds...tested on both 3020 units. On the Denon unit, there is a much clearer distinction in the back wall channels. Overall, I do like the unit. Pros: Good unit. Cons: Rear wall channels not quite as clear as I'd like.
Real home theater in a box! Written By spasmonaut, PA on Tuesday, June 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is by far the nicest A/V receiver I've ever purchased, and would do so again in a heartbeat. It supplies effortless power and has dynamic range to match, with a plethora of real, useful features to make the experience more practical, approachable, and enjoyable no matter the content. This can truly be the heart of a home entertainment SYSTEM with robust connectivity and flexible programming options that are all within the grasp of anyone that can follow the instructions (use a laptop or tablet to peruse the manual, as it's electronic only, unfortunately). I don't really believe in all of the artificial boosting and tweaking of the original media, but this unit seems to gracefully compensate for real-world deficiencies without being obnoxious. I've only been loyal to one other common A/V brand that begins with the letter "O", but through a series of product failures that are widely known in the online community, I've finally converted to Yamaha after I swore for years that I wouldn't (if only because they were so ugly for so many years! Remember that hideous rust color to their screens?). This unit, for the six months I've owned it (not really long enough to prove anything yet), has not experienced a single software hiccup or glitch, and genuinely seems to regard the user more than it expects you to anticipate it. A short learning curve makes for an easy-to-use and pleasant system that does what you ask without question and does it all very well. Pros: Power, thoughtful and quality connections, fantastic build quality, impressive technical features, plenty of built-in entertainment value and lots of room for future expansion and to stave off obsolescence. Great auto-tuning software and intuitive and powerful on-screen GUI, crazy customization and flexibility for all sorts of source units, and a focus on multi-zone entertaining with enough prowess to excel at playback of nearly all sources including hi-fidelity stereo reproduction. Cons: Not exactly cheap, but a great value nonetheless. No printed manual, two-tone remote is a bit unusual, no built-in WiFi, not so much a con but a challenge is the sheer size of the unit for many shelves or cabinets so plan ahead for adequate ventilation and remember it is DEEP especially with an array of cables connected.
Yamaha AVENTAGE RX-A3020 Written By Naresh, Aurora, IL on Monday, June 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I had a Yamaha rcvr about 6 years ago and was very impressed by it at that time. So when my 5 year old Onkyo could no longer process 3D HDMI it was time to upgrade so I choose the Yamaha. Moreover I have a home theatre setup where I have a TV and a projector in the same room with a motorized drop down screen dropping in front of the tv for movie watching. So I needed 2 HDMI outputs which this offers. Just FYI my main front speakers are floor standing kick ass Martin Logan ESL's and all others are top of the line Polk Audio. However, after all the hookup and fine tuning I have to say I was very disappointed with the quality of the sound from the Yamaha. Just didn't sound loud enough and the depth of bass was lacking. Another huge issue was- I could not Bi-amp my front speakers and at the same time have a zone 2! Zone 2 only came with a normal 7.2 option without bi-amp. Since my speaker arrangement is only 5.1 the 7.2 was a waste and I wish I had the flexibility to divert 2 channels to my Bi-amp instead. But Yamaha has pre configured speaker options which cannot be changed. So I ended up returning this and getting an Onkyo TX NR929- which is cheaper but better! More on that in another review! Pros: 2 HDMI output, 150 Watts per channel Cons: Sound quality not great. Speaker config for Bi amp in 5.1 plus Zone 2 not possible.
Outstanding Written By Skip, Dayton, Ohio on Monday, June 02, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Crutchfield had the receiver marked down because it is discontinued. Great buy! This unit replaces an Onkyo TX-NR809 that succumbed to the reportedly common HDMI board failure six months out of warranty. My decision came down to this unit and the Denon 4520 and I could not pass up this bargain. Set up is straight forward. Again, no paper manual, just a CD. I downloaded a PDF file and printed it out. The first thing I did was download the firmware update from the Yamaha website to a flash drive and install it via the USB input on the front of the unit behind the drop down door. I also purchased the optional YMA-10 wireless network adapter. Easy install on the USB port on the back of the unit. Despite what I had read elsewhere about problems with this adapter, I experienced none. This receiver is everything it is touted to be! The sound is phenomenal. Much better than my previous Onkyo. So far, so good. There is definitely a learning curve and I've only had it two weeks. There are a multitude of ways to tweak your audio and video. I will revise this review once I have more experience with it. I highly recommend this AV receiver, especially if you can get a good deal on it. It has everything you need to be the center of your entertainment system. Pros: Feature laden, plenty of power to drive all of your speakers, plenty of inputs and outputs. Cons: None found yet.
Great Receiver Written By MarkinCT, CT on Monday, May 26, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've been a Yamaha fan for years. They make quality products with outstanding sound. This receiver is a perfect example. It's loaded with features and capabilities. The sound is outstanding. There is nothing lacking in this - actually a hard copy manual would have been appreciated since on-screen scrolling of 200+ pages is not fun. Pros: Loaded with features, high output, Yamaha quality, outstanding sound Cons: none
Good Receiver Written By Irad p., USVI on Saturday, May 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) It's a lot nicer than the 2020, it have a tone of features and the clarity is a lot better than the onkyo . The only receiver that has better sound quality that it is that Marantz 7007. One of the things I like about the receiver is it does not run hot and it does well with different zones. Pros: Nice sound quality, lots of features , very cool and different zones Cons: Sounds a little weak for it power rating

Yamaha RX-A3020 Written By ToddP, Houston, TX on Wednesday, May 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I purchased this receiver to replace an Onkyo that died for the third time.

Yamaha RX-A3020 Written By eccash, Stony Brook, NY on Tuesday, March 25, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit replaced a Yamaha RX-V3300 with the same speakers and components in place and has better power , features, functionality and openess in its basic and DSP modes. It presents a distinct upgrage to the former unit Pros: Excellent interface with TV and other components, easy to setup has more features than I will probably ever use. Cons: Requires a little learning curve to fully realize its potential.
RX-A3020 Written By Andy, Eureka Mo on Friday, February 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This unit replaced a yamaha V867 tuner that I believe to be a very good sounding unit. lack of HDMI expansion was reason for upgrading. I couldnt be more please with the excellent sound of the new unit. Yamaha top end gear is hard to beat for both function and its wonderful warm sound. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a new receiver. I am running a Carver TFM25 through the pre-out for my front mains, Polk LSI15s and running Polk LSI 9s on the rear surrond. A JBL center completes my 5.1 system. Pros: Features, warm sound, room to expand for future gear. Cons: None yet.
The "Network Server" on my new Yamaha RX-A3020 receiver gets "Access E Written By Charlie, Carlsbad, Ca on Thursday, February 06, 2014 The "Network Server" on my new Yamaha RX-A3020 receiver gets "Access Errors" I currently have a Yamaha RX-V2065 and just upgraded my Yamaha RX-V1065 to a Yamaha RX-A3020. The RX-V2065 has been working flawlessly for many years now with the "Network Server". I have a WD My Cloud NAS with a massive amount of mp3 files loaded on my home network. This has been working outstanding with my RX-V2065. But, since I have upgraded from my Yamaha RX-V1065 to a Yamaha RX-A3020 it have been nothing but frustration, headaches, and a-lot of wasted time on my part trying to get the "Network Server" to work correctly. After installing the new RX-A3020 receiver, which is on the same network as my RX-V2065 and using the same WD My Cloud NAS, I was expecting to use the new RX-A3020 receivers "Network Server" like I did with the RX-V2065. That has not been the case at all. I keep getting "Access Error" messages. I can play a "Genre" or an "Album" and it works just fine, but I cannot seem to use the "All Music", I get the "Access Error" message. While RX-V2065 is sharp, quick and works for hour on end with using the "All Music". The RX-V2065 receiver continues to "shuffle" thru-out the huge music library I have, but the RX-A3020 will not. I have contacted Yamaha thru their hot-line and support emails with no help what so ever, "take it in to a repair center", right. I have contacted Cructhfield and was promised a call back after they talk to Yamaha, this never happen. Yamaha please get the RX-A3020 to work the correctly like the RX-V2065 receiver. As far as I am concerned, this is a Yamaha problem, please let me know when this will be resolved? Crutchfield response on Wednesday, February 19, 2014 We received the following response from Yamaha: The RX-A3020 uses a different network chip than the RX-V1065/2065, so those receivers may not be compatible with the same NAS drives. The WD MyCloud NAS drive has several new firmware and software updates which could help. It's possible the RX-A3020 is looking for a newer firmware version, and doesn't recognize the older version. Firmware Update Page: http://support.wd.com/product/download.asp?groupid=904&lang=en There was a firmware update for the AV receiver back in the middle of 2013 which should be installed as well. http://usa.yamaha.com/products/audio-visual/aventage/rx-a3020_black_u/?mode=model If none of this does not trick, then the receiver's network chip may simply be incompatible with the WD MyCloud NAS drive. Yamaha has had issues with other DLNA NAS drives, but not the WD MyCloud in particular.
Very Impressed Written By Michael B, St. Louis, MO on Friday, December 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I haven't had this receiver for long, but from all that I have seen, it is very impressive. Until now I have been a Denon fanatic. This receiver has changed my mind. Pros: Ease of configuration (on screen menus are great) Flexibility Sound Field Power Network communications (automation) Cons: I haven't found any yet
yamaha 3020 Written By Dash, Amherst NY on Saturday, December 07, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Ease of setup, clarity, options , looks, etc.etc. all over the top. i have had Sony , what a letdown , Yamaha has restored my faith :) Cons: none yet.
Big Step up From the old one. Written By Star, Rapid City, SD on Monday, November 25, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The RX-a3020 is nice, It has 8 HDMI in and 2 HDMI outs. That make it a big step up from my old one. It is easy to set up.It also has RCA IN and out. Pros: Easy to set up and lots of In and outs Cons: None
Just what I needed Written By LuizC, Rochester, MN on Thursday, September 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Exactly what I needed for my home theater. Plenty of power, amazing networkability and ease to use. Pros: Power Sound Network functions, to include remote control on Apple devices Cons: Remote that comes with it Sound stages are not very useful, sound very weird.
Be c areful.. Written By netman8762, Central Pa on Thursday, May 23, 2013 I was replacing a Onkyo TX-NR3009. Right out of the box the Yamaha is very nice. Have to say though that the first thing that I noticed was that it seemed very light. I am not so set that I could not over look that so I went ahead and set the unit up. In setup I have to admit that I really like the Yamaha YPAO setup. It did a really good job and noticed that one of my cables (that I had changed!) was wired wrong. Very nice and quick setup! Upon beginning to get into the use I had to change the remote right away. I just could not deal with it so I used the Yamaha to control the receiver and the Onkyo to control everything else. The remote is just kind of awkward and there are not enough buttons to program to perform the functions that I needed. So I went ahead and started with a pristine copy of Wish You Were Here on vinyl. The sound in two channel direct node is awesome! Very strong and even. I then moved to a recorded episode of Definace. This is where it starts to get weird. I really like this show and I usually watch it with the Neo X movie setting. I went for the Spectacle first, then Sci Fi then adventure.... These soundfields are the weakness of this unit. They all sound like they are adding echo and you are watching everything from way down a tube. Went back to a Onkyo TX-R-3010 that I had around and all was well. The Yamaha seems to have really good two channel sound but it does seem weaker then its rated 145 per channel. I love the interface and the flexibility. Pros: Great two channel sound Very Nice interface Light enough to move around easily? Cons: Strange soundfields Seems kind of weak power wise. Remote, remote, remote
way over rated Written By sfb, fort laud on Tuesday, March 26, 2013 I have a 7 yr young Onkyo TX SR805.. I thought I needed an "upgrade".. I was mistaken. My Onkyo was taken off the shelf (40+ lbs) and replaced with the alleged "replacement Upgrade" 3020.. the Onkyo is more dynamic in sound, more power though it is rated 10 watts /ch less than the 3020. the power "seems" soooooo much more from the Onkyo. setup is MUCH easier on the Onkyo, the remote control is better, the Ipod connection is MUCH better on the Onkyo.. i.e... the fron panel of the Yamaha MUST BE OPEN with an APPLE CORD DANGLING OUT THE FRONT AT ALLLLL times while you listen to your ipod on the Yamaha .... (that's ridiculous) ... the Onkyo discretely plugs the USB in the BACK of the receiver... to hide the Apple USB cord... I mean really.... Yamaha.. C'mon... no USB option on the rear of the AV??? wow.. so in short the door of the 3020 MUST be open.. with the white cable runing out .. in order for the listener to listen to the iPod..... ( I just wanted you to know once again how absurd that sounds.. yet true... The Network setup is convoluted.... and not easy.. AT ALL. The on screen menu is horrible.. Onkyo's is MUCH better... Pros: really ???? none Cons: network setup, Ipod access ( i.e. cable plug in on the front door which cannot be shot due to the fact that you have a white cable plugged into a black box... (UGLY)!!!, sound is tinny, cannot for the life of me listen to my two main speakers and sub.. I have to use a sub par center channel.... etc etc etc etc...
Awesome Value Written By JonL, Lexington, SC on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've owned or listened to a number of home theater receivers in this class in recent years. All of them are well-built and sound great, if properly set up. The real difference, I think, is in the features and usability. That's where this receiver shines. My last receiver was a Pioneer Elite SC-68 - their top-of-the-line. As I said, it sounds great. Problem is, the features aren't nearly on par with this Yamaha. For example, Yamaha has Rhapsody and Pandora built in and easy to use. The Pioneer at least has Pandora, but the interface is as clunky as can be. In fact, the Pioneer user interface is lousy throughout, and the remote feels cheap. The RX-A3020 on the other hand is a breeze to use. All of its features are, and the remote is high-quality. I'll be putting the Pioneer up for sale now, and will stay with Yamaha for the forseeable future. Pros: Where to start.... built like a tank, outstanding graphical interface for every function, great universal remote (I prefer it to my Logitech Harmony), loads of power, great sound. Lots of internet options, including internet radio, Pandora, Rhapsody, etc. (make sure you have the latest firmware - the original firmware didn't have all of these). Has an outstanding "information" display that allows you to see every parameter of your input and output signals. Cons: Does not include a paper manual - a pdf on a disk is all you get. I hate that, though it seems to be the industry standard nowadays. I say charge 10 bucks more for it and include a real manual.
Yamaha RX-A3020 Written By Chris, Burbank, CA on Tuesday, January 15, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my first AV receiver, I'm new to the home theater game so it took a few days to get past the learning curve but now all is good. I am very pleased with the operation of this receiver. I like the Scenes feature, the YPAO setup my speakers really well even though I haven't experimented with their location. Well worth the money.
Yamaha 3020 exceeds all expectations!!! Written By Joshua, Syracuse, NY on Saturday, December 01, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This is my 3rd av receiver. In the mid 90s I bought a $1,000 onkyo, and around 2003 I purchased a 7.1 100 watts per marantz. I loved them both , but was trying to keep up with new technology. I've been researching receivers for the last 3 years, and was taking a strong look at denon! After all of my research I felt the Yamaha had the best bang for the buck! I couldn't possibly be more satisfied with this purchase! Both audio, and video are pristine! My friends , and family are truly amazed, and they all want movie nights at my house! My girlfriend says it feels like a night club when she plays her music. We've pushed it to -8 on the volume, and it goes to+16.5 in .5 increments . Outstanding power, and amazing clarity! I also purchased def tech bp 8060 st fronts , and received a free 8040 center, and 8040 bp surrounds! The whole system just rocks with zero distortion! I also went for the audioquest carbon hdmi cables , and type4 speaker cables! All together it's like nothing I've ever heard before, and well worth the money. I'll be using my crutchfield rewards soon to purchase the Yamaha 1020 bluray player next! Dolly was the associate who worked with me, and she was super helpful! I'm so glad I trusted my purchase to crutchfield , and will continue in the future! I'll be reviewing my other purchases soon. Get a simillar setup, and you too will be amazed! Pros: Absolutely everything! AirPlay is awesome! Love the remote app for iPhone! Awesome power, video upscaling is pristine, also audio is incredibly natural sounding....live music will cause goose bumps! Lol Cons: None...not a single one! Well worth the money!
Yamaha RX-A3020 Written By Anonymous, Lafayette, CA on Sunday, November 25, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I researched this product carefully and found it to be the best in class, and it didn't disappoint. Easy setup; easy to understand. Crutchfield always has the best prices; and it didn't disappoint there either. A very satisfied customer here.
RX-A3020 Written By Don E, Paso Robles, CA on Thursday, November 22, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am not new to Yamaha processors and this one is the best yet. I am presently operating it in the 9.1 mode and the sound is warm seamless and puts you into a club or concert hall with accuracy and realism. This processor is powerful and versatile. I particularly like the ability to incorporate my external amplifiers such as MacIntosh MC 275 or Anthem Statement P2. Flexibility is also enhanced with the HDMI inputs provided. I consider this very user friendly processor to be a bargain. I highly recommend this processor if you want good build quality,attractive industrial design, power, fidelity and value. Pros: 150 watts per channel excellent provides the best movie or music experience with substantial control authority that combines well with the inherent flexibility of this first class processor. Cons: Steep learning curve but once you master it the RX-V3020 it becomes the heart of a first class home theater experience.

Don't abuse us or other users. If you don't like a poster, just don't read/reply. This is meant to be fun. You can also add that person to the 'ignore' list (click on their username, then you'll see the option to add to ignore list). • If you have a serious problem with the site or any other user, you can use the alert button which is next to all posts or pm us.

Crete - Greek Aqua disco
Crete - Greek Aqua disco. Edge hosts a pool side Bonanza. Bamboozled Willie has to phone California to find his way back to his room.
Day off. Crete, the morning after. Last night got completely out of hand, and I'm just now trying to piece together the various shreds of memory I have left. We arrived in Crete and found ourselves staying in what is basically paradise - a large coastal resort hotel with chalets by the clearest blue sea you ever saw, with beaches, palm trees, hills, little rocky paths everywhere, the whole bit. Clearly, its going to be a great few days here. Today was also the birthday of Bess from Principle Management, so later in the evening, The Edge invited us all over to his place to celebrate, because he was so amused to find that his chalet/room had not one, but two swimming pools. It had an outdoor pool and, yes, a fair sized indoor pool and whole spa set up, making it, he said, the most over-the-top accommodation of his entire career.
Now, I don't know whether it was the beauty of the place, or the realisation that the end of this leg of the tour is so close, or some psychological reaction to the massive contrast between here and Bosnia, or maybe it was just the moonlight and the moment with a birthday thrown in, but something in us ignited and we declared 'party time' of the highest order. The bar was raided, the tunes were cranked up and into the pool(s) everyone went in various states of dress and undress. The Edge found himself hosting Crete's very first Aqua-Disco and we made the most of it. In the pool, singing, yelling, dancing. We did Go West, we did YMCA and birthday girl Bess performed the whole of 'Born Slippy' on the side of the pool. Everyone piled in. Madness. Dancing on the treadmill. Ice-cube fights in the steam room. Building a make-shift bar on the edge of the pool. Making candle sculptures to float in the water. Aching from hours of water aerobics, and laughing, laughing, laughing. Couldn't find the way back to my room. After an hour wandering about little paths, peering at chalet numbers, hopping fences and climbing over rocks I knew I was utterly, hopelessly lost. Nice night for it, mind. Still had the mobile phone, so called a friend in California who had a tour itinerary, so he could give me the hotel reception number here. I called reception and they sent out a little Greek porter to find me and lead me to my room. I've no idea how anyone else got home.

Banteay Kdei (Khmer: ប្រាសាទបន្ទាយក្តី, Prasat Banteay Kdei) is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia. It is located southeast of Ta Prohm and east of Angkor Thom. Built in the late 12th to early 13th centuriesCE during the reign of Jayavarman VII, it is a Buddhist temple in the Bayon style, similar in plan to Ta Prohm and Preah Khan, but less complex and smaller. Its structures are contained within two successive enclosure walls, and consist of two concentric galleries from which emerge towers, preceded to the east by a cloister. Source
Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.Text by Steve Smith.
