| The best speaker you ever heard? Hmm, the battle goes on..... | |
| Acoustic Zen Absolute interconnects When you reach the quality of AZ, or those that Earflappin mentions you really can't go wrong. | |
| Toslink vs. Digital Coax for Long Run Hey Squaker, I really don't think that in this situation you will notice a difference. Over 10 feet I would think that toslink with real glass would be best, but again, I don't think you will notice. In general toslink is best on long runs, especi... | |
| Bologna OR Baloney How does this work? Please fee A slight variation of Nsgarch's suggestion would be to go to the local hardware store and get the foam inlulation used for pipes on your hot water heater and interior plumbing. It already has a 'slit' down the center and is real eash to use and it... | |
| When will a 60"+ true 1080P plasma be available? Goat, go back to the NEC thread where you just posted and ask that question. I can say that the difference between the 50XM5 and the 50XR5 in terms of inputs is that the 50XM5 has a DVI input that right now could at least accept the 1080p while th... | |
| When will a 60"+ true 1080P plasma be available? There is not yet a plasma that can display true 1080p but some of them can receive a 1080p signal and then convert it to 720p. The bigger question is how long do you want to wait? There will always be some gimmick coming down the pike worth waitin... | |

| Anyone heard of Monoprice Cables? I got into Ebays reviews and there were pages of positive comments on monoprice and only two negatives, each having to to with incorrect shipping dates. I think I will go with their DVI cables but on audio I will probably go with something higher-... | |
| Double your pleasure with same cable throughout? I have always been of the opinion that one high-end cable or an other is good enough as one can get really crazy experimenting and this can be expensive. The above comments might make me reconsider. | |
| FM antenna amplifier Sugarbrie,Your starkelectronic is a fun read. | |
| The best sounding FM Tuner is..... More for curiosity I have an old (but refurbished) Fisher 88 which is one of the last ones built that required an external MPLX for stereo. This feeds into a McIntosh CR 12 audio/visual control unit and then the signal goes into seperate tubed amp... | |
| I need help for processor selection You can do searches on any of the above at www.avsforum.com | |
| Do all tubes char inside when they die? Trash the tube. End of discussion. Also, be very careful to watch for a while the replacement tube. Your tube is probably just worn out, but you never know for sure. Oh, did I say trash the tube? | |
| Please, DON'T TOUCH It is often harder to be the guest than being the host. Guests who are very appreciative of the hospitality will not be a problem. That being said, your guests might also be more sensitive than you think. Do remember that even though the child is ... |
