| CD/DVD Modding : Pros & Cons. Rja & Tubin's words are words of wisdom from experience, but Audphile1 makes a great point if you want to try a modded piece...buy it used and already modded. Like I said above...as the one paying for the mods, you pretty much eat that part of... | |
| CD/DVD Modding : Pros & Cons. FWIW - I don't think the new HD-DVD or Blu-Ray players will play CD, SACD, and/or DVD-A. The HD-DVD may play CD, I am not sure.For video, perhaps one of these new technologies will do a good job with the old DVDs, but who knows if the old DVDs wil... | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian I think we are on the same page with the ES stuff. Like I said, I just cannot remember the details. | |
| Review: Bent Audio Tap Linestage Teajay - what kind of rack are you using, or where is the TAP placed? | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian I would also add that I wouldn't shy away from Meridian just because it digitizes all inputs. This used to be a hang-up for me. But if it sounds great...who really cares HOW they get it to sound great...just as long as it does.Really, all these pi... | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian Bruce - The HTS 7.1 does do some sort of distinct processing for the 7.1 output with 5.1 source material. In addition, it recognizes 7.1 source material [albeit rarely available like Star Wars I think] as ES processing [or something like that]... | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian Bruce - the Krell HTS absolutely does support 7.1, even through the analog inputs, just not DPLIIx. It does Dolbly and DTS "ES" processing for the two extra surround channels, plus some other variations for those extra channels...I just don't reme... | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian I have a similar system as you. I used to have Focus 20/20s, but now use Whispers. Everything else is Legacy for surround as well as the subs. Even my source is an Upgrade Company improved DV-50. I think I have a pretty good idea how resolving you... | |
| Anthem vs Krell vs Meridian My experience was dramatically opposite from Freemand's [I hate when people do this in one of my threads!]. Perhaps he is referring to another HTS and not the HTS 7.1.I got a smokin deal on an HTS 7.1 while I owned an AVM 20. My intention was to f... | |
| Review: Bent Audio Tap Linestage Is there a way to demo the Bent? | |
| Passive preamps: What are the relevant numbers? When you do the "Bolero" test, what are you looking for beyond a potential DC leakage hum/buzz?I just did the Bolero test, but with different quiet music since I dont have Bolero. I did not get any abnormal buzzing/noise. It was quite loud which ... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Mmakshak - My idea above was a "get-together" not a "shoot-out". I think those two descriptions are self defining. Besides agreeing with your idea that a one time side-by-side comparison is probably not ideal, I really don't like the idea of havin... | |
| Legacy Helix Reference Speakers As I understand it yes, you need 3 two channel or six monos.As far as room size, I have no idea. I don't know if they are better suited for large rooms, or if it doesn't matter. I only listened to them...I wasn't really shopping for them.BTW, have... | |
| Legacy Helix Reference Speakers I have heard the Helix, owned the Focus 20/20s and now own the Whispers. From my experience, the bottom end of the 20/20s is unchallenged by any speaker I have heard except for the Helix. For example, in my room the 20/20s began to roll off at aro... | |
| REALITY CABLES ? Any updates from anyone? |
