| DVD player for 200 Perfectimage:Ditto for the inexpensive Pioneer DV-343 plus the Stan Warren Mod. But you may also want to check out the Toshiba SD-1700 (which you can get from Best Buy for $149.00), or the new Progressive Scan Toshiba SD-3750 (for $179.00, also at... | |
| Budget progressive DVD players Avguygeorge:I know you cannot afford the Camelot Roundtable. Who can?? God knows, I can't. As I have said many times on these forums, I have a Pioneer Elite DV-37 (which retails for $1,000.00, and I got mine for $700.00..... even though my dealers... | |
| Replace 35" TV with something bigger Perfectimage:I happen to get my "Video Essentials" DVD on E-Bay for just under $25.00 (including shipping and handling), and bought it from a hometown guy (which makes it even sweeter). So far, I have used it twice, and let me tell you, my DVDs ha... | |
| Your Advice on a good HT receiver Dismalonyx:If you have a speaker system like the Martin Logan Aeons as your fronts, then I would have to concur with one of the other posters that has posted here. Nothing less than one of the top Marantz models will do for this application. Thoug... | |
| Recs for HT upgrade? Todd:I just checked the Camelot website. And the Roundtable does NOT have balanced outputs. I'm sorry.--Charles-- | |
| Recs for HT upgrade? Hello Todd:Glad to see you re-join us. I am also sorry to see that there aren't any "high-end" audio/video dealers in your area. But on the other hand, I am glad to see that you tend to utilize your time wisely when you are out of town on business... | |
| Decent DVD Player Jacasio:I concur with the above. Most of the players Pioneer make are decent players to begin with. But according to your equipment level that is listed above, I would be looking at one of their "Elite" players at the very least. Both of the playe... | |
| Replace 35" TV with something bigger Sean, Angela and Swampwalker:I would like to thank all three of you for influencing my decision to purchase a "Video Essentials" DVD. As I feel that I am as serious about home theater as all three of you, I feel that this DVD is an indispensible t... | |
| Replace 35" TV with something bigger Sean:I have the upmost opportunity to buy a "Video Essentials" Calibration DVD off of "E-bay" WELL BELOW retail (and believe it or not, it will be from someone from MY hometown...... Washington, D. C.). After reading this thread for about the last... | |
| BEST REAR PROJECTION HDTV?? Bazmataz:Although, I am not in the market for a rear projection HDTV as of yet, I have recently begun exploring the market as I do intend to get one within the next two years. As I already have a progressive scan DVD Player (a Pioneer Elite DV-37.... | |
| Which HT Receiver would you buy? Stownel:Those are some good choices that you have listed above. Check out all of those choices, but for about $550.00 to $1,000.00, I would also check out the Harman/Kardon AVR-510 (I believe now, they are going to discontinue the AVR-510, because... | |
| Arcam Diva 72 vs CAL Mk II with HDCD upgrade Hello Ekaras:How are you doing?? I was just reading the above comment, and all I have to say is that I disagree with what "Ritt" has to say in reference to the Arcam DiVA CD72. I read both European and American audio publications, and from what I ... | |
| How come no one talks about the BEST REMOTES?? Bazmataz:OUCH!!!!!! $3,000.00???? For a remote?!?!?!?!?!?!!! That's an awful lot of money for a remote control system, isn't it?? But $3,000.00 for a remote control system?? That's about how much my entire home theater system costs. If you don't m... | |
