| DAC Question I have it connected via coaxial out on my hd-dvr. Meant TV as in HBO, Showtime, etc. Sounds much better then the analog connection. Given that you have a 20es cd player (I have dvp7700) I think you may want to look at a ead dsp7000 or bel canto as... | |
| DAC Question I have the 203.2, you can get this version off ebay for about $15 plus shipping. The difference being the analog filter and the number of inputs/phase switch. I find it fine for tv, the sound is a little on the forward side for music though but be... | |
| rotel rc 995 vs. adcom gfp 565 preamps... I think the main question you need to ask yourself is if you are going to used balance outputs or remote because the adcom does not have them. Otherwise it is a great pre, a lot of options on the pre-outs. You can run bypass (which I do very clean... | |
| great hdmi cable....archives Lots of people use monoprice or bettercables. I sometimes run into issues with my cable box if I change inputs on my tv when I come back to the hdmi connection all I get is staticm turn the tv off and then it is fine again. This all started after ... | |
| Is HDMI connection better than Component? With the toshiba the hdmi will transmit 1080i for hd-dvd and normal dvd's that it upconverts, with component you get 1080i for hd-dvd but only 540p for standard dvd (you lose the upconverting) so hdmi is the way to go if you have the input. | |
| Best Budget system? $500-$750 tops I have a both a perreuax 200i reference integrated and a panasonic sa-xr50 that I use with my kirksaeter silverline 220's. While the perreaux has a much larger soundstage and musical presence, the panasonic for $220 with digital in sounds very det... | |
| Dead Can Dance's Into the Labyrinth You should give immortal memory by Lisa Gerrard a listen. 4ad had many great bands-this mortal coil, lush, cocteau twins and still has a lot of new releases worth giving a spin. | |
| What happened to Monsoon Audio? Check ebay for the 14 series (i think this is correct as was their top model), scored a pair for $35. Not bad for 2 satellites and a 8" sub. Just replaced them with a pair of fosgate monitors ($159 from ac4l.com) and a panasonic sa-xr50 ($229 from... | |
| Denon PMA-501 Denon PMA-700 Had a pma-700 amp (I think this was the model...had integrated I had). IF was same had processor loop, very large amounts of bass vs. sensitive volume control. Small speaker wire connectors in back looked like they would handle bananas but would o... | |
| Philips 963SA normal characteristics? I have well over 1800 hours on mine, and paid less than $350 for it with a 5 year warranty. My Sony DVP-S7700 stopped playing dvd's so I took it to work to use with my hd600's. I got a new amp and speakers at the same time (bad idea since I lost m... | |

| Hasselblad 503CW or Bronica SQ-Ai I always liked shooting with my rollei 6008, just as sharp and contrasty but german engineered or you could always go old school with a sl66e and one of their tilt/swing lens. Had the Hassleblad 555eld digital and had nothing but problems with it,... | |
| Anyone still do insightful or intelligent lyrics? In this day and age, the lyrics of VNV Nation's Ronan Harris seem to really speak to the disillusionment and frustration that a existentialist feels while looking back into the society that surrounds us. They are as intelligent and timely at this ... |
