Halcro SSP180 vs SSP220
I would avoid the halcros. Ive had 3 220s and all of them died. The first 2 came to me with hdmi issues, the last one was brand new from factory and only lasted a little more than a yr and blew up. They are no longer in business so no warranty etc...

They have a firmware update available now that corrects the problem. 
Oppo DBP-83 SE
I've emailed them, and they are aware of the problem. It happens at low level, any level. They claim that a software update may work or else they will have to replace boards. It's only on the analog outs but I feel they screwed the buying public f...

Sellers adding for PayPal use is plainly BS
Cant we all just get along? Here's an idea, split the fees. Both parties benefit. The Seller is more likely to sell if someone can charge the fee( we're a nation in incredible debt) plus he or she, knows they have funds immediately. As a buyer it'...

Does Anyone design PC's for Plasma Monitors?
Its not fan noise,its a high pitched buzzing sound,They recommended using their PC because it has an RFI module on it. The noise may never go away but I was wondering if it would improve. Almost sounds like transformer noise.
