    DPL IIx and LOGIC 7

    Help needed: Long lenght of HDMI and component video cables.

    Is fiber optic$ the answer Clint, What about going to fiber optics? Except for the OUTRAGEOUS :eek: prices, it seems like the best solution. I could have a 66ft cable with no worry about EMI from the electrical system. (See, I am running all the speaker cables through conduits on the...

    What if I don't want an Universal player?

    Guess you might be right. My objective was to spend LESS by taking out the DVD-A and SACD not more, by buying Krell or Thule. I will be using HDMIor DVI, so it seems that the Bravo and Panasonic are good options to audition. Any other thoughts? JM PS:Shokhead, the Denon 3900 IS a...

    DVD and Processor crossover.

    DVD and Processor's crossover doing the same thing? Ok, I slowly (as my paycheck allows) building my HT. During my research (day dreaming :p ) I read some user manuals and came across a question on the "excess" of crossing over. Getting down to it: I am planning on buying a Lexicon MC8...

    buying on ebay?

    If you had to choose a place to sell: Audiogon or ebay? I noticed that you guys have lots of experience selling stuff in the internet. Which one would you prefer: ebay or Audiogon? My gut feeling (not experience) is that Audiogon should be better as it is a smaller and more focussed...

    Spades or Bananas?

    "Just stick with gold plated stuff". The funny thing is that the top of the line WBT spades (WBT-0660) say only in the "fine print" that it is gold plated. Thanks for the input. Guess that since I am going with the Lexicon NT 512 (Bryston 9B St rebranded) I will have the extra space to go...
