Yev, it's always a good idea to supply the readers with brands and model numbers of the equipment, so they can help you faster and better. I don't know of any plasmas that doesn't play a component video signal. Don't you have a DVD player hooked up to your plasma thru component video...

Vancouver, if it's free and you have a choice of the two of them, I would go with the HD Plasma, by the way the new generation Panasonic Plasmas are much improved with video enhancements and higher contrast ratios.

It's new to me, but it's not a bad idea. I suppose a gear box installed between the fixed short arm and the long swivel arm with a DC motor inside controlled by an infrared receiver should do the trick, for horizontal movements of the plasma. Why don't you make one?

JVC, thank you for educating me on Yes's Fragile DVD-A, I had no idea what it was, I guess I am getting old. Varkeast, please let us know how you making out with the resetting and what did you do to reset the unit. The only way I know to correct these weird type of problems is to...

I simply agree with you BMX, not long ago Panasonic for a while was incorporating a Faroudja video enhancer circuitry on their $ 150 DVD players, go and figure.

If you are totally satisfied with the sound quality of your HT system, I would definitely leave thinks the way they are. I am sure the selling price of the 2500 won't go down at least for a while, maybe until a newer model comes along.

OK, obviously you're getting electrical interferences, your HT system seems to be in line with other applaiances in the house. Funny, usually a power bar surge suppressor should help suppress electrical interferences. I beleive your next step should be to get a dedicated AC line from the...

Or, give your neighbor a nice Christmas present "ear muffs" for indoor and outdoor use.

Let's also consider the room the HT system is played on, speakers, subwoofers, the total setup makes a great difference in the final results of sound quality. Changing the RX-V 2400 for the RX-V 2500 because it's a new model and should be better, it's like saying: I have a Mercedes Bens that...

I suppose this is the only DVD that doesn't play normally on your DVD Player? or are you having this problem with all your DVD movies? It might be a stupid question, but what's Yes's fragile DVD-A? Mr.T

Get yourself one of these, if you don't have one: http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Monster_cable_Monster_POWERBAR_1100_MPB_1100 Mr.T

JohnA is correct, your receiver has 3 S-Video inputs, see the specs on: www.shopping.com/xPF-yamaha_RX_V550 Mr.T

Dmlee57, I have a question. Do you still get the same popping noise from the speakers when you first turn the equipment ON? To me it sounds like a problem with your amp. Mr.T

In most cases, if you need to use the plasma with your laptop from time to time, we recommend customers the HD over the ED, but for programs watching and DVD movies many customers rather save the money and go with the ED. Very often, customers want to see the performance of the 2 plasmas side...

Take it from me, the ED plasma is a better choice, it delivers a brighter, sharp and more contrasty picture, especially when playing a DVD movie on component video. We have installed quite a few of those models and most of our installers have a strong preference towards the ED model including...

I beleive the term reconditioned means factory brand new with a defect that it doesn't pay for the manufacturer to retrieve it, but it makes a deal with the buyer and the buyer in turn has it repaired and sells it as reconditioned with a full manufacturer warranty. Refurbished I beleive it...

MtryCrafts, unfortunately most unexpensive SPL meters have cheap condenser mics in them and that's one of the reasons why I think using Denon condenser mic should give you a better set up. Mr.T

I really enjoyed your intelligent conversations about possible methods of improving CD copying from the original, I certainly learned a lot of therminology, methods and possibilties, but I still think as I had said before in one of my thread that, it all depends how good the original CD was...
