| Janszen Speakers - help There is one external transformer, like wall-wort style. Also the second link up in the original post is a picture of the bottom. Thanks Kal! | |
| Janszen Speakers - help I should add that it looks like there is a 12-volt input on the bottom of each speaker, as well as some sort of knob that is very hard to turn. Thanks for your help! | |
| SACD player with digital input Thanks for the heads-up on the Marantz options. I looked at their website and the new SA8004 has optical, coax, and USB inputs. I looked at the manual, and the optical and coax support up to 192kHz, and the USB supports up to 96kHz. At $1000, it s... | |

| Blu-ray multi-channel analog vs. HDMI The SE upgrade for their Model 83 is purely to improve sound quality - but it applies only to the analog outputs on the 83.Right. Just wondering what sort of receiver or pre/pro's analog output would be able to equal or surpass the analog output o... | |
| Blu-ray multi-channel analog vs. HDMI Good point. Funny that an audio product would not have attention to audio quality, but alas, that is the state of mass-marketing and mass-manufacturing. I fell for the "bells and whistles" marketing. I feel so hurt and sad! Just kidding. Thanks fo... | |
| Blu-ray multi-channel analog vs. HDMI Kal,Yes, I have tried all the permutations of Audyssey, HDMI, etc. One of the problems with the 605 is that the Audyssey correction is not available with the HD codecs, due to processor limitations, I guess. And it is Audyssey 2EQ, a limited versi... |
