| What's the best HD DVD player under $1,500 FYI, I think the most expensive HD-DVD player made is still the Toshiba XA2, which lists for $599 but can be had for less. It's an excellent upconverter of SD discs as well. | |
| Sony KDL-52XBR4 - connection/setup questions... I can't see how there would be anything to be gained with the setup you describe and, in fact, that's probably the worst possible setup given your available equipment. Why would you want the TV to process the audio instead of the 805? I would sugg... | |
| Video Question: Plazma or LCD??? As an LCD owner, I will admit that the very best plasmas are still better than the very best LCDs, BUT the best LCD's are still very, very good and provide a very satisfying viewing experience. I believe your viewing environment should be the bigg... | |
| Polish for adagios? Email AZ and ask them what they recommend. I'm sure they have a particular product that they use for final polishing before they leave the factory. I know that a couple of high end guitar makers use a product Novus No. 1 for their final polish and... | |

| Warner and Blu ray? The quickest way for the market to adopt hi def DVDs would have been for all studios to produce in both formats.I'm not sure this is true. If this forum is any indication, many people are waiting for the "war" to end before they buy a high def pla... | |
| PICK ONE... ONKYO 805 or MARANTZ 8001 I haven't noticed any brightness or video delay (I'm not really sure what you're referencing in regard to video delay). The only audio lag I have noticed is when watching a TV show that is broadcast in Dolby 5.1. Most commercials are not broadcast... | |
| Warner and Blu ray? The Panasonic BD30 is getting good user reviews over at AVS. It goes for about $400 on Amazon. The cheapest Denon player currently planned will have a suggested retail price over $1k. | |
| PICK ONE... ONKYO 805 or MARANTZ 8001 I have the 805 and like it a lot. To my knowledge the 805 is a current model, but it's true that you can find them discounted. Previous to the 805 I used a Rotel 1066 processor with a Rotel 1075 amp and, honestly, I don't miss the Rotel at all. Th... | |
| Warner and Blu ray? Onkyodude, as a fyi, there are HD-DVD players that do 1080p. | |
| Need help Cary CD-308 or Naim CD5i As a FYI, I don't think the Cary 308 has a digital out either. I have the 308T (tubed version of the 308) and it does NOT have a digital out and assume the standard 308 would be the same. | |
| Holy Moly Blu-Ray Disc Players below $300 Jkalman, wow, where did that come from? Look, I was simply relaying my personal experiences with the two formats and I'm not sure why you feel the need to attack me in your reply. As indicated, I own both formats and certainly have no agenda to ad... | |
| Holy Moly Blu-Ray Disc Players below $300 I own both formats and don't care about the "technology" behind each. I just want to put a disc in my player(s) and watch movies. That having been said, from first hand experience I perceive HD-DVD to be the more complete product at this point. I ... | |
