| Best DVD player in $500-$1000 Range I usually get a discount for many reasons, one being a 25 year friendship with an audio salesman but, if you call Uncles Stereo at (212) 721-7500 I an fairly certain they will ship it to you for around $750 or less. Let me know how it goes. | |
| Why balanced outputs? In recording, balanced means +4db level settings, unbalanced= -10db. | |
| Best DVD player in $500-$1000 Range Chasskelljr, The build quality of the DV-37 is fine, with excellent design features, (separation of power, audio, video sections). Its performance equals, or betters the DV-09, and if you ever need progressive scan in the future, your already set.... | |
| smoothing those sibilants... I think that Cardas would be a very good choice when comparing cables if you try the H.T. Truthlinks. They deliver the emotion as well as the H.T. cables. | |
| smoothing those sibilants... My Denon AVR-5700 had the same problem, I changed speakers, tried various interconnects, changed power cords, and my best results at taming those "SSSSSS'S" were the Harmonic Technology Truthlink interconnects. When I can afford it I will upgrade ... | |
| Pioneer DV37 far better then the DV05? One thing I forgot, the DV-05 had a problem when you started a CD or jumped tracks. It skipped the first half second of the track. This made it feel uncomfortable every time you started a CD, and was one of the most annoying things to "live with".... | |
| Pioneer DV37 far better then the DV05? *last line was a typo. | |
| Pioneer DV37 far better then the DV05? Hi DVD, You sure asked me the right question. I owned the DV-05 and now own the DV-37. The DV-05 was an excellent player. Previously I had the Sony DVP-7700. It was also a superb machine, but I wanted the best video possible and found that the DV-... | |
| cables Harmonic Technology Truthlink. Will give you warmth, without sacrificing detail and tranparency and creating a false sound. Check www.harmonictech.com Read some reviews. There are a few dealers with loaner cables, allowing you to check them out, b... | |
| Best upgrade for the money ? Get new speakers and get some reasonable power cords later. | |
| Natural sound (REL Subwoofers) There is a review of the REL Strata II by Robert Harley at the REL website. It is truly worth reading, even if you are interested in a different model.Try www.rel.net. | |
| Natural sound (REL Subwoofers) My REL Strata III doesn't have that boom, boom thud that most subs have. It sounds like I have a full range pair of speakers. When I first heard the REL I was really shocked, it was the first time that I had ever heard a sub that stayed in time wi... | |
| Best DVD player in $500-$1000 Range I have owned the following top of the line DVD players: Panasonic, Yamaha, Denon, Sony DVP-7700, Pioneer DV-05, and currently own the Pioneer DV-37. Unquestionably, the Pioneer has the best picture, and the best audio. The Sony was a close runner-... | |
| B&O, overpriced artistic piece of audio? I agree about the audio aspect of B & O products, but I must say that their widescreen televisions with the Runco line doubler built in look as good as anything I have seen for DVD playback, and their phones look cool. I wonder if they are any... | |
| Cheap Tweak? I second HDM's motion, that TPC packet from XLO works very well, and sure qualifies as a cheap tweak. |
