Thanks Mort. I am leaning towards the ipod nano. How long did it take to arrive?

I want to Thank the people helping me with this post and I will be checking out Amazon. I have alredy learned a bunch just from this post. Thanks again

After some research I am definitely leaning towards an ipod.

I did not know that an ipod and an mp3 player were different (Now I feel really stupid). Which one should I lean towards? My main concern is that it is small and just used for music only. I do want to stay with a reputable brand of course. What is a screen used for anyway and why would it be...

Hello everyone, I have asked many questions on this forum about my HT system and have always gotten great advice. I do not even know if ipods are discussed on the forums but I will ask my question anyway. I really know nothing about ipods but I want to buy one for when I am at the gym. I want...

I first want to thank everyone who has helped me to learn about HT when posting questions on this site. When upgrading an amplifier can sound actually get better with less wattage if it is a higher end amp? For example, I am using a B&K Ref 7250 and one day will probably want to upgrade. This...

Thanks tomd51. The price seems too good to be true($800). My guess is that my newbie ears would not detect a difference. I assume I would have to spend a substantial amount of money to hear a difference worth paying for. My pockets are just not deep enough at this point. Again, Thank you

I was just curious because I someone was trying to sell one to a friend for cheap. He is not into the HT thing so he asked me if I wanted it. I am reluctant about it because I love my B&K. It is the first and only amp I have ever had. I only started this hobby a year ago so I have nothing to...

I was wondering if anyone has expierience with ATI amplifiers. In particular the AT2505. I am considering upgrading from a B&K Ref 7250(200x5). Is this an upgrade or on the same level as the B&K? The ATI is 250x5 but who knows how accurate these ratings are. ATI amps seem to be reasonably...

I do watch movies that are on cable and get sound from all five channels so I know that my connections must be right. I thought it may just be how the station you are watching does their broadcast.

Hello, I am confused about how channels on television are processed by my processor. I first want to say I have Comcast Cable HD. When watchind TV sometimes the channel I am watching will say it is DD5.1 on the TV screen but it will only come through my front L and R speaker then on other...

Thanks everybody. I figured it was somewhat of a personal taste type decision, I just wasn't sure. I thought taht beings DTS was the more recent decoding choice that it was a no brainer that it should be used. I will conduct my own field test in the future. Thanks again

Thanks Stratman, please do. I actually purchased the Orb Mod2's for my sides in my 5.1 setup. I won't have them untill the end of this coming week. If you want send me a private message to let me how the Gallo's sound. I am contemplating between the Gallo's or the Orbs for a second 5.1 setup. Thanks

Hello, It may be a stupid question but here goes: When I have the option to choose DD 5.1 or DTS mode when watching a movie which one should I select? Is DTS better? What is the difference anyway? Does one sound better than the other? OK, I had more than one question-sorry. Thanks everyone

I have a Paradigm setup. Fronts Studio 100's, CC-470, sub PS-1000 all V.3. I have no room for studio 20's or ADP's. I am considering down sizing all together and going with one of these micro systems but I am petrified that the sound will make me very unhappy. The 100's and the 470 are big in...

Thanks for taking the time to help me JcPanny. I have read all about Orb and the others I mentioned. I know the real way to determine is to demo each but this is not possible. It seems that this type of speaker is inexpensive cosidering what I have spent for my other speakers and sub. I have yet...

Hello Everyone, I am looking to finish my 5.1 setup. Due to lack of room for side speakers I am forced to go with a micro sattelite speaker. I have been looking at some round sattelites from a few companies. I have read and read all the info. I could find on the net about three manufacturers...

After months of wondering how to complete my 5.1 setup I finally realized that me side speakers cannot be a bookshelf or dipole. I was told by my local dealer that the only way to go is with speakers mounted in my ceiling. Now I do not know which manufacturer to go with. I now do not know what...

Hello everyone, I have a speaker question about my HT setup. My current speakers are from the Paradigm studio line. L/R are 100's, CC-470, Sub PS-1000. (All V.3) I will have a 5.1 setup due to a 5 channel B&K Ref 7250 (200x5). Pre/Pro is a Classe-SSP50. I actually have a couple questions...

Thank you ggunnell for clearing this up for me. I actually do use the crossover in my pre/pro and the one in the sub. I just did not know when an external crossover would be used. Thanks again.
