<font color='#000000'>In other fora, this issue ussally becomes the subject of heated debates.  I happen to side with one camp. &nbsp;With what little I know about digital transmission, 0s and 1s really don't care much which medium they travel provided the medium conforms to certain specs...

<font color='#000000'>Sometimes the best value for the dollar can be had from pre-owned shops that sell 2 year old stuff that could have been priced beyond your budget when new but is now priced at just a fraction of that. &nbsp;And people who had them, generally, are meticulous owners who...

<font color='#000000'>Maybe not in general or totally. &nbsp;There are many exceptions. &nbsp;Like I said, price could be just an indication. &nbsp;Weight on the otherhand, when talking of amos, can be more indicative of better built and dynamic power ability courtesy of a generous power supply...

<font color='#000000'>It's always a good thing to have the front left, center and right speakers alligned to within a foot up or down along an imaginary horizontal line conneting their tweeters. &nbsp;So if the TV is mounted high or is large, set the center below it. &nbsp;Ofcourse, if the main...

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td> <font color='#000000'>That could be so true. &nbsp;Not to give offense to NAD users, but in the same price range, 5 channels vs 7 channels, doesn't that give you same indication of the quality of ROTEL over...

<font color='#000000'>Harman Kardon has an excellent reputation for sonic excellence and reliability so I don't think I could go wrong getting a product from that house.  I am actually eyeing their receivers and have a friend who owns a Citation power amp series thst is already more than 2...

<font color='#000000'>Suggest you check out ROTEL. &nbsp;They may have models in that price range. &nbsp;I personally consider Rotel a notch above the NAD brand, though both are good and known to be high-current in their amplifiers.</font>

<font color='#000000'>I am aware of twp brands that make very musical subs - REL and VANDERSTEEN, by reputation.   There may be others.  Most people in many fora agree that a musical sub should not be boomy.  And many subs with sealed enclusure (not ported) would qualify as such.  So look for...

<font color='#000000'>have the same experience. &nbsp;The two are not really interchangeable. &nbsp;I think booze is much much better as it gives more pleasure than what it is replacing. &nbsp; &nbsp;</font>

<font color='#000000'>I also agree. &nbsp;In another forum, i've come across supposed audiophiles whose dream systems are those stratospheric Cremonas from Sonus Faber speakers, audio note cables, rega planet turntables, Antigue Sound Lab tube amplifers, tube ended CD players and the likes in...

<font color='#000000'>I am also using the internal DACs of my preamp even if my DVD player has 5.1 analog outs. I posted the questions above because I am contemplating on upgrading my current generic player to a Pioneer, Samsung or Panasonic whose faceplates have this higher sampling DACs but...

<font color='#000000'>Honesty is indeed a rarity. &nbsp;And I commend them for that. &nbsp;They'll surely have my respect. &nbsp;But not my money. &nbsp; </font>

<font color='#000000'>Am just curious.  I noticed many DVD players with the 192/24 sampling rate on their faces.  And then when I look at the back, there are no 5.1 analog terminals, just stereo , digital and video jacks. If i use the digital connection, can i still benefit from the 192/24?  Is...

<font color='#000000'>The RXV1400 is a multi-channel receiver and should accomodate the DVD. &nbsp;I suggest you connect the DVD's digital output, either opitcal or coaxial, to the receiver's digital input. &nbsp;If you have no other video sources, like VHS or another DVD player, you could...

<font color='#000000'>Thanks rptiz. Seems like a cheaper option.</font>

<font color='#000000'>Only if they can generate EVEN order harmonic distortion which they don't.</font>

<font color='#000000'>Hi Shocker, Just to dwell a little more on your earlier problem regarding OSD, i know of some audio and video philes who do not use their plasma HDTVs to display OSD. &nbsp;They use another smaller LCD screen or TV right beside &nbsp;their amp set-up to display OSD...

<font color='#000000'><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td> From a business perspective, it is strategically important to have only incrementally better standards every so often.  That way, movies like Tomb Raider or Casablanca can be reincarnated...

<font color='#000000'>Thanks Hawke. Now I understand how movie moguls can drive around in chauffeured limousines. &nbsp; </font>

<font color='#000000'>Hi Swinfast, Hope this is not too late. &nbsp;Pls check out the technical specs on the VSX-D812s. &nbsp;I know Pioneer is an establkished name in Hi-Fi cricles, notably its Elite series. &nbsp;I am just amazed how it could blatantly (at least honestly) print on its...
