JVC F10 help needed - Where is the bass??

Sent back the JVC and got this Tripath based DVD receiver meanwhile...

I had to hook it up for a first test and was well, disappointed is too weak an expression - this is by far the worst piece of equipment I have listened to in quite a few years...

when i use the aux in, it gets a bit better, but overall not reaching the level of my t-amp...

had to open it , of course:
- Switchmode power supply
- 1 decoder board
- the dvd drive itself
- and: one neatly designed amplifier board with 3 tripath 2020 chips on it

so i am wondering right now:
- is it worth trying to fool around with this one (multichannel digital amplification comes to mind)?
- can i run this on on 12 V SLA-Batteries as well?
anyone ever tried this?

Quanumfish,

What amplifier are you referring to?

@Jeff

This is an amplifier board that i found in a chinese made (aren't they all?)
DVD receiver branded over here as "CAT 2002"

Just a PCB with 3 2020 Chips on, dit oes not look worse than my t-amp, even a little less cramped... and even the leads are documented

so, when I find the time, I'll try to fool around with it, after all it was just 29 Euros.

yours , qf
