| Denon 2900 and Dacs Coach: I've been listening to my ECD-1 DAC for over a month now and am happy with the purchase. I thought the 2900 as a cd player using its analogue outs was very underwhelming. My opinion is it was designed as a DVD player first and made it a uni... | |
| Help-Genesis Digital Lens Most programmable remotes should have a "learn" function and you do exactly what you mentioned "...point a Programmable one in front of a Genesis one to pick up the codes"The Pronto code you downloaded is used for Phillips touch screen remotes. Th... | |

| Need sub recommendations for vr4 jr's I have a REL Storm III and ended up taking it out of the 2-channel setup after a couple of months with my 4jrs. I loved it with my previous bass shy speakers, but with the jr's they just sounded better w/o it. There was more bass with the sub obvi... | |

| Apple Powerbook "Optical Digital Out" Monster also sells one designed for the Apple Airport express, the stereo mini to digital optical out. I was hoping to get one with a digital RCA out to connect directly to my DAC, but unfortunately that particular mini doesn't seem to suppor that... | |
| Any high quality music servers out there? Kennyt: Thanks for the airport info. How certain are you that the airport is not doing something like digital -> analogue -> back out digitally, which seems like that would defeat the purpose of using a digital out. The reason I ask is it ap... | |
