    The Dolby Atmos Home Theater Paradox

    What? My Martin Logan's ESL will not permit anything on top of them and I am perfectly satisfied with them and the 7.2 system I have. This is just a business trying to create a market for new stuff for people to buy. Most of cinema or TV is people talking to each other....that is where the...

    HDMI 2.0 / 4K UHD (2160p) Resolutions and new HDTVs

    "Your 4 k televison?" I would guess no more than one person owns one of these sets who reads this. 95% of people are satisfied with 1920 x 1080. 4K is like a 12 cylinder engine...yeah, Audi and Mercedes can make them but what for...there is no demand. Sony has had multiple failures in the...

    Emotiva XSP-1 Preamp Video Review

    Emotiva I have the model UMC-1 as it has analog video inputs for my s-vhs and superbeta units as this unit does not have these "legacy" inputs. I like mine, the only limitation is that there is a five second delay in the video because of the copy guard in the HDMI system. This happens when you...

    Audioholics 2012 GTG Event: Live Demos, Meet & Greet, FREE Prizes Food & Drink

    Clearwater Event I went to all the days of the event in Clearwater Beach and it was a great event. I learned about the excellent Emotiva products and now have the PreAmpProcessor and the 5.1 power amp. THIS IS WELL WORTH ATTENDING.

    Lexicon 12.4 Channel MP-20 "Media" Processor Preview

    Set up? I WOULD guess that set up takes hours and is confusing at best. Manufactures who get this kind of big mark up should include a DVD of a person hooking it up and setting it up but I would guess they did not do this. You should not need a masters in EE to set up this stuff.

    Emotiva UMC-1 Pre-Processor Video Review

    Emotiva gets my vote I own the early LMC-1 and this year the UPA-5 and I could not be more pleased with the products and especially the telephone tech support. You are not going to get that kind of telephone support from Marantz or Denon. My Harmon 5 channel power amp could not drive my...

    Atdec Telehook TH-1040-VFM Display Mount Review

    Why not? Why could the manufacture not offer color photo graphs that actually show the mount attached to a flat panel set? They should have provided 6 different jpegs that show the tv in six different orientations. I wonder what the product manager was thinking. Based on just a picture of the...

    HDMI Cable Speed Tests Fact or Fiction?

    Report incomplete The issue that is not discussed at all is the length of an HDMI cable. I do not want to spend the extra money for a HD receiver or BlueRay player for the bedroom HD TV. I don't know if a 25-30 foot cable will work or produce no or a distorted signal. I can hook one up to go to...

    Wal-Mart Shrugged - DVD and Blu-ray Fell

    price, price and how much does it cost Blue Ray Discs are just too expensive. Period. Pricing a three disc set of BOURNE movies is a mere $80! Business people have a tendency to shoot themselves in the foot. There is no way I want a Blue Ray player for $199 if it costs me a $27 for one movie...

    Speakers; When is good enough, enough

    Reagan Quote I agree: what reagan produced was higher unemployment than we have in October of 2009 during his second year of power. Sales of TOW rockets to Iran, lower wages for most middle class and lower class people and billions for a military that is unable to defeat a rag-tag army in...

    Going to 7.1-Channel Surround Sound

    Mismatch? I use a ES Sony stereo amp to run the Dynaudio and a 5 channel power amp for the others. Again: Most of the audio still comes out of the center b/c dialog is there. I have some German MB Quart C 104's I just got to use in the far rear but they are part of my bedroom surround sound...

    fiberoptic fragile I had to replace my two fiber optic TOSLINK cables as they refused to work as my length is over 20 feet from the DVD and HD Cable box to my Emotiva LMC-1. I use exclusively coaxial cable ....its much cheaper and utterly reliable.
