| Toslink to SPDIF RCA digital converter I don't remember the 'Lense' had a toslinc;but hey,I'm old. | |
| Mirage M1 or M3 vs M1Si or M3Si Series Actually, the si versions are much better.The tweeter and mids are where the improvement occured. A lot of fussing re. placement pays off.If you have the manual, their recommendations are spot on. 10years ago when a friend and I had similar (he ha... | |
| How to get a Meridian 518 to pass a DD 5.1 signal? I had a 518 going into a 565,but mine had the dts 7.1 installed. There is a Meridian user site called something like "hitchhiker guide to Meridian" That may not be the exact add, but it is something like that. I sold my 518 because of space consid... | |
| Loss of digital signal...help Post this same question on "avsforum.com"(under dvd recorders)and you'll know if other owners have had this same problem. | |
| Best projector in the 6000.00 range At the rate projectors change,a used one is the better buy.We have several online dealers that sell at good prices and come w/ warranty.---Getting the right screen is also important. The Sanyo plv70,Sharp 9000,and 10000,Sony 11 or 12ht are hard to... | |
| $400 pre-amp/proc or wait awhile Most of the changes in receivers are about 6.1,7.1, dts ex, dvd-a, and sacd. One could eaisly find a used receiver that just did DD for movies; for that kind of money.I mean with 2 children on the way,you do need another hobby.(and something that ... | |
| Noobie Question on speaker cable for my system Jer;As an xmas gift I bought my sister a HC rceiver. Her's is a similar/something like avr300/ I got it new from a dealer for just less than $550. It has the cable box and a dvd player running thru it. She has PSB speaks---I just used lamp cord.--... | |
| Why Would You...? I own both pieces.--Actually,one buys the Arcam 27 for its picture quality; I did. I own the Meridian for the sound quality. I have never even put a cd in the Arcam and I never listen to music thru the Meridian. Oh,btw,The Meidian is in quite anot... | |
| Favorite all-in-one remote control? Like some others I prefer a simple remote to control things. I have and still use the HT sl9000. I also have their Mx500. I find the 9000 a lot eaiser to use in the dark.--(one button device change / 500= 2 buttons)The 10 key part is more mid posi... | |
| Cable TV High Definition converter I have the Arcam 27 as a dvd player and you bet; some HBO /SHO movies have less pq. This applies to much of the local ota content as well.(i.e. the Rose Bowl game). Still much "hd" content is shown in 4.3. However "good-hd" content is no match for... | |
| pioneer elite DV09 or DV47ai Ok, most important: Do you have or plan to get a HD tv set? If yes; don't get the 09. It is an older interlaced player;works well with older sets but not newer HD sets. | |
| 2 ch HT/music...hope to hear from the 2 ch purists In that LD is a 44.1 format--- Then hoping the LD transport has a digital out--- a good 2ch dac will do much, in such a setup. | |
| DVD recomendation I think the last post was a bit winded. If your display upconverts 480p to 720--- Then yes a progressive player will kill any 480i player. Generally, the scaler in the better dvd players will be better than that of the display within the tv. How l... | |
| Help me find a new HDTV...... for $3500 I remember reading an add for a printer and the 'hook' was; theirs was capable of resolving 164 shades of grey. So while absolute black is important resolving the shades of grey/black and shadow level/detail are the hardest things to reproduce at ... | |
| What is a DVI input? Don't think for a minute the $200/$300 dvd players with a DVI output better the "high-end" quality dvd players (without dvi). Yes, they do trounce the "low-end" /"mid-level" players. Much depends on how large an image is being displayed. --- AND--... |
