| Decent budget Blu-Ray Black Friday and the days after may yield a great deal. I purchased several Samsung blu-ray players in a past year for $90 that retailed for as high as $250+. I'm not saying that I have the greatest player on earth, but it does the job and it didn... | |
| Logitech Harmony Setup Question Ok - I was using the setup that's available at myharmony rather than the downloaded software. Now I've found the menues that you're describing. I think I have everything setup, but need to do some testing to verify.Thanks!I find it odd that the do... | |
| Logitech Harmony Setup Question Right, I did setup some activities that turned everything on and when I switched from one to the other the components with a power toggle shut off. What this tells me is that the activities are programed to always "push" the power on button everyt... | |
| INTEGRA DBS-30.2 VS. OPPO BDP-93 I suspect that having matching brand components would be a solid choice if you don't care about the extra features of the Oppo. | |
| INTEGRA DHC-80.3 Surround Processor I have a 50.1 receiver and find it really easy to use. My local hi fi store uses Integra for all of its home theater installations. I think they have a second layer of setup options for installers. | |
| Best speakers in the 3000 -5000 range I love my Focal Chorus 836v speakers that are right at the extreme bottom end of your range. See what you think. | |
| Redbook vs. SACD vs. Linear PCM 24 bit 192 kHz Do you really think that if I had a Redbook player that made the CD layer sound better than the Liner PCM that it would mean that the Redbook was the better format?I think it's quite clear that the Linear PCM should be the better format. I have no... | |
| Christmas Music and Audiophiles? Today another three new Christmas CDs arrived: Il Divo, Faith Hill, and Celtic Woman. So far Il Divo is a great CD, but I prefer the sound/style of the Canadian Tenors. Faith Hill sounds great other than the first song sounded a bit hollow. Celtic... | |
| Redbook vs. SACD vs. Linear PCM 24 bit 192 kHz A quick A/B between my SACD player and blu-ray via receiver revealed that the Linear PCM is a much cleaner sound. I can't say that it's so much better as to invalidate other music formats, but it is a wonderful sound.I would assume that an upsampl... | |
| I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too? Wasted money is wasted money and it could be put into something better like vinyl.From my perspective, there are two main things to consider. First, the advertised engineering behind the product strongly states, from a logical perspective, that an... | |
| Christmas Music and Audiophiles? Picked up Yo-Yo Ma - Songs of Joy and Peace based on the recommendation but have not had a chance to listen to it yet. That recommendation also led me to get Yo-Yo Ma's new Goat Rodeo album. I put it on in the car and can't wait to hear it on my s... | |
| I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too? "I'm now in the process of running a direct line to my computer server which stores all my music files and one to the cable and WiFi modems. And of course there is only one reason, to enhance the quality of the sound." - SgrAs a point of humor, a ... | |
| Christmas Music and Audiophiles? Tpreaves - I can't argue with "Bah Humbug" as I get really tired of all the useless stuff that has been confused with the holidays. I would prefer it to be simple. Why does everyone insist on making 4x the amount of food any normal person should b... | |
| Jitter and 75ohm cable length I should note that I'm referring to a sound (pun alert) technical theory and not just a best guess. | |
| Jitter and 75ohm cable length A few examples of "in practice" don't discredit the validity of the "in theory," but this is why the theory should only be used as a guide. |
