All of which was noted in my review and hence the average value rating. Though the average value rating was more because the 3910CI is nearly as good as the 5910CI at a fraction of the price. There is still no Blu-ray or HD player that can do SD as good as either of these Denon players...

The term universal came about to describe a DVD player that would handle DVD-A and SACD formats. WE are a # of years (if ever) from seeing a "Universal" player that will handle all existing formats including Blu-ray and HD DVD. To blame the manufacturers for this displays ignorance of the...

I thought I was pretty clear about that in this review. By esoteric, I mean DVD players from Linn, Krell, Arcam, etc. In many of our reviews such as the $4k Thule amp I recently reviewed in the past, it goes without saying there are better value products in their class. In that particular...

I had the opportunity to play a PS3 last night on my reference system. The graphics were excellent, at least as good as I've seen on my Xbox360. What I didn't like was the antiquated setup interface which I feel the Xbox360is superior in this regard. I also prefer the controllers of the...

Don't forget Clint has backup and I weigh a lot more than 150lbs and I am not particularly fond of smart allecs :D

Yea thats great if you wanna watch Lethal Weapon 1 or Waterworld, but the software selection of movies people actually want to watch is still very limited. I never said SD is better than HD. I simply said most of the first gen Blu-ray discs did not measure up, NOR did the first gen player...

This is the real trailer of the movie. I can't wait to see it :) http://www.spoil-sports.com/RockyVI.htm

Steve just sent me a bunch of his CD's to demo. I started with the Genesis Revisited one. Overall its decent but I hate to say he really kills the songs where he tries to sing in them, especially with the evil sounding voice. I really wish he would stick to what he is best at - playing...

I believe the discs are at fault in this case since many of them are still using Mpeg2 compression. Hopefully this will improve with time but of course at a premium in price of the discs for sure: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc A player cannot "fix" bad source material. But the...

Yes a standard player that looks better than pretty much every Blu-ray disc I've seen on the Samsung BD-P1000. Not to mention no HD or Blu-ray player will handle DVD-A and SACD. While you can enjoy you're half dozen High def discs on these new players, most of your viewing time will be spent...

Ray probably didn't realize its already released. I have a review sample now and its currently on my bench for testing. I should have a review on it around xmas time.

How did you measure their resistance? You need a high percision ohm meter or impedance analyzer. Speaker cables should only be a few milliohms per ft so if you're MITs are really that high (not surprising since they are esoteric cables) you need to dump them. As for speaker resistance...

Guys; I have a phone interview scheduled with Steve Hackett for Dec 5th! If you have any questions you would like me to ask him, fire them off here or to me via a PM.

TEll me about it. In the past 3 days, I watched every Peter Gabriel era Genesis video on youtube.com and also listened to The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway double CD. I haven't listened to this CD in nearly 6 years! I think Paula only toured a few shows with him and after that her solo career...

Yea he was absolutely terrible on the King Crimson Deja Vroom DVD. He made so many timing errors and was just plain sloppy. I felt embarrased for the other musicians that had to bear with it during the performance and this is certainly NOT a show I would demo to people who never heard King...
