| Best A/V Receiver Under 700 I used to have a Nakamichi AV-8. he 10 is a a model up. No DTS on mine anyway, but I thought it was a great bargain. It replaced Denon and kicked it's butt. see them cheap on AG and at my dealeer at times. | |
| Bang for your Buck HT If you don't want progressive scan, the pioneer elite dvd-05 has been a steal here on AG. I have one - very noticable upgrade from everything else and don't pay a fortune for the 09's Tank-like construction. I've owned a bunch of Dolby Dig. receiv... | |
| Any mid-priced Receivers Worthwhile??? Since B&K changed models, you can get a 202 reasonable here on AG. I have B&K Reference Seperates also, and the receiver does a very repectable job. Prior I had a Nakamichi AV-8, which was great compared to the same priced Denon I had befo... | |
| In-wall speaker help I have top of line sonance in ceiling for surrounds and in another room for music. Haven't been dissatisfied. Just might not have your ear.... Also varies depending on model. I would check out B&W (if I didn't have the sonance already), and wi... | |
| B&K Reference 10/20 Upgrades I just spoke to B&K. Specifics not yet available. They should have info in 30-60 days. | |
| Speaker help please for $2000 US I replaced Studio 100 with Soliloquy 5.3 Small, but heavy. Seem much more musical, better image and soundstaged than Para. Underwoodwally sells "B" for $1400 pr. that I can't tell from perfect. Great in price range. Very efficient. May want to che... | |
| silverline sonatina vs soliloquy 5.3 Just got 5.3 from underwoodwally - plus center. Early impression is great. Purchased after buying 5s for bedroom and loving them. May want a sub with 5.3, but if using for music (sorry - like HT) Solilo makes a great musical sub Wally also sells. | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference Roger: Have Hurricane between DVD and Receiver and to TV. Daybreak DSS to Receiver. System 2 is Wireworld Silver S DVD to pre- and Monster to TV. Problem on A/B may be that it will be tough to trade out the switching to TV run. My gut level advice... | |
| Who R U? Glad I found this post. Past few months I bought some good stuff, sold some good stuff, and got a lot of good advice here on AG. I am Ed. We go by shaqspack (www.shaqspack.com) for our lovable lab Shaquille. You can see him on his Website. I'm 46 ... | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference Roger: Have both sonic horizons and Monster 2000 now. Love both. HCMaudio makes/ sells these. www.hcmaudio.com Tell 'em hi. Took them a while. Someday soon, I'll A/B them with test patterns on same set up. I forgot. My Pioneer DVD-05 has dual outp... | |
| Revel M20, Soliloquy 5.3, Silverline I replaced 601 series with Soliloquy 5s and center. Great upgrade. Soundstage excellent. Clearer voices. Am driving with Modest Nak receiver. Impressed enough I have 5.3 on order for main system. I have sub, and 5s don't get real low. We'll see 5.... | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference Got my sonic horizons S-Video from HCM hooked up today. I can't A/B with Monster 2000 cable, but they are excellent cables. The Horizon is top shelf and the daybreak is great for price (about $60). So, my opinion, yes, does make a difference. Both... | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference George- my experince was good also, glad to hear not just wishful thinking. I decided to try Sonic Horizons by HCMaudio, just for something difference and Wally was out of 2M. I'll let everyone know impressions. Hope this thread lives a while! Ed ... | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference PS my problems were with less expensive Monster products. NO PROBLEM with 2000 | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference A clarification in my original post. I recently bought Monster svhs 2000 for one (the "good one") of my two systems. Noticable improvement in this cable over MIT I had. I have had problems with several Monster's in terms of connectors breaking asn... |
