| Help please How to remove stripped screw ? I'm with BDgrepory. If you can get all of the other screws out, you can usually lift the other edges of the cover up a bit, then turn the entire cover. It will generally move the stuck screw a bit an loosen it up enough that you can remove it.Just... | |
| Reference 3A Decapo "i" sounds shrilly Harkey,Did you previously have the same electronics, but a different pair of speakers, or is all of the equipment new to you?I own the Reference 3A MM DeCapo (non-i version) and it is definately not shrill. I've owned speakers that were very hot o... | |
| I'm Looking For the Best oh61,Well, you obviously already know the best source component as you've asked for an iPod input!Add to that a multi-enclosure tube amp that uses at least 20 tubes per side. If you are not into tubes, a huge 500+ watts per channel of solid state ... | |
| Input on DVD players Myraj,You are correct (sort of). Even in an active speaker, ultimately the driver is presented an analog signal. However, digital technology is changing the way we traditionally think of the signal path from the digital source, all the way to the ... | |
| Cable TV Picture Stinks JC,Are you saying the best picture quality you have achieved is with s-video (not Component or DVI/HDMI) or are you saying your TVs highest resolution input is S-video (no Component or DVI/HDMI input on TV)?Also, is the issue only with certain cha... | |
| LCD Screen Size Zar,I also looked at the Vizio 37" at a couple of places, including Costco and Sam's Club. Unfortunately, the Vizio 37" had poor color in my opinion, always looking too yellow. I tried to adjust it, but it appeared to be a problem with that model.... | |
| LCD Screen Size Zar,I just recently purchased a 37" Viewsonic LCD TV for $1199 (after $300 in rebates). It is a fully integrated HDTV with speakers, SD and HD TV tuners, table stand, etc. It is a great TV at that price. I bought it because I had limited space and... | |
| Omega Super 3 loudspeaker & Decware amplification Onlywax,The Decware Zen amp is a unique creature. It can sound stunning with the right speakers, but it can also completely fail to power some speakers that would typically be considered "good with SET". I know, I've tried one with my Reference 3A... | |
| Reference 3A and SS namely Krell I'm currently running my MM DeCapos with Channel Islands Audio VMB-1 monoblock solid state chip amps. Admittedly, the CI VMB-1s likely have a different sonic signature than the Krell, but they are solid state and sound great!I've also played mine ... | |
| Quad cd-p 1 vs. 2 The Quad 99 CD-P (version 1) does have variable volume control.I think Digsmithd is confusing the Quad 99 CD-P with the original Quad 99 CD player. The Quad 99 (non P version) was not a Quad design, it was sourced from another designer. It was not... | |
| Sher. Newcastle R-925: no center channel in AC-3. Make sure you DVD is set to DD5.1 in the audio menu. It may be set to PCM or Stereo which would exhibit the symptom you are observing. 3-channel stereo is a DSP function, ie the digital signal processor is processing the signal and creating a cent... | |
| question about tubes, cds, etc Allenwilkie,MrT is right. Following advice may end up costing you money and not produce the results you seek. I've owned many different CD players and have often shared my opinions about them. I've also had exchanges here and in e-mail with people... | |
| Loud thump when I power on or off Rilands,Sounds like the typical thump when using a subwoofer amplifier that has an auto-on circuit. When the amp senses a signal, it turns the amp on. I've heard this thump in many setups that have an amp that uses an auto-on circuit. I would gues... | |
| If you have a "kick booty" DAC, does the transport Theoretically, that should be the case. However, practical experience tells us otherwise. I'll leave it to the "digit-heads" to try and explain a reason. All I can say is that I've tried multiple different transports using the same DAC and they do... | |
| Zu speaker owners - do you have any gain issues? You could place an in-line attenuator between your pre-amp and amp. Rothwell sells a 10 db attenuator that would allow you more useful range from your volume control knob.Disclaimer: I have never used an in-line attenuator, so I do not know anythi... |
