VCR in the HDTV era
K, I got a remote control off of ebay that works well enough.  Once I got a look at the menu options I saw that the default setting were fine.  I tried engaging auto channel set and auto clock.  Neither one worked.  Which is what I figure.  VCR pl... 
Computer Speakers Not made in China
Harmon-Kardon has a pair of $1000 desktop speakers that look like crystal formations. No idea where they are made. 
Utilizing PC, options for downloading muti-channel
The only surround sound downmixing algorithms in the world that are worth anything are DTS headphone and DTS virtual speaker. Now that you bring it up, an enterprising hacker might be able to figure out how to run high-res surround sound through t... 
Computer output to DAC, which route?
Grace Design m902b headphone amp and ASUS Xonar HDAV 1.3 soundcard. The HDAV 1.3 (several minor variants) is the only line licensed to decode and transmit the audio from Blu-ray at full resolution. You will need Arcsoft TotalMedia player to do thi... 
Internet radio stations that sound really good
AVRO has a quite a few 256 kbps mp3 classical channels.Adagio.fm has a 128kbps Ogg stream, and a user request system.I'm afraid that Roku's products support neither Ogg nor AAC+, making them totally unacceptable to me. 
Resampling my music collection
then wouldn't it be more elegant to find some software based DSP that also uses a quality SRC?Wouldn't it be more powerful to use the best software resampler there is so I can then use whatever DSP I want? 
Resampling my music collection
I didn't know this thing had a quote feature.any other DSP process could be, say, a Meridian 808 CD player that upsamples to 176.4KHzLearn to read by inference. By "any other DSP process" I mean any other software based DSP process, and I'm obviou... 
Resampling my music collection
Onhwy61, this is not rocket science. Any other DSP process will do its own resampling if it encounters 44.1 kHz audio, and the quality of that resampling will be entirely unpredictable.

The problem is that you seam to think Wave Editor would be a good idea for me. If you aren't recommending that I buy the product, why are you even mentioning it? 
Resampling my music collection
In case you didn't notice, Wave Editor only works on Macs, and Adobe Audition costs less than a new computer. 
Resampling my music collection
Nevermind on SSRC. The "high precision" version was a plugin for foobar2000 that is no longer available. Adobe Audition of all the commercial software comes closest to matching the performance of Pro Tools. 
Resampling my music collection
That's a misnomer - 32 bit floating point is only 24 bit precision, and a digital filter needs twice the precision of the source to prevent round off errors.Jtwrace, that site is fascination. ProTools is the obvious reference to compare all others... 
Resampling my music collection
Neither Soundforge nor Wavelab do de-emphasis without a plugin, and the only plugin I've found that does it, the Waves Q10 plugin, does it with 32 bit precision, which just doesn't cut it. 
Resampling my music collection
Jtwrace, I am not a Mac user and will not become one until they have an equivalent to PowerDVD. And by equivalent, I mean support 100% or more of PowerDVD's features. The full, retail version of PowerDVD.I also need software that can resample and ... 
Resampling my music collection
If I resample my music statically then I don't have to worry about the mediocre real time resampling ability of various playback software. Obviously, I won't be using the same software to do a static resample that I would for playback.resample abi...
