I have purchased many blue jeans cable, and I think they are fantastic. You get great quality cables (Mostly belden, but the HDMI/DVI are from avlink) and great connectors. As for HDMI/DVI/Toslink and such (digital signal medium) I believe using decent/good quality cables (such as the avlink...

I purchased a Denon 2900 refurb from ecost.com about a year ago. It has been great. Before that, I purchased a refurb Denon 1600 from ecost.com and that worked great also. So far, 2 of 2 aint bad :) Kimo

I just noticed refub. 5900's at ecost for 1100. I bought my last 2900 from them, and it is fantastic... Kimo

Hello All, I have a Denon 2900 (a refurb one from ecost.com got it in october). Everything has been great with it, but today I noticed some skipping while playing two movies. Normally I don't consider this to be a problem (it happens sometimes when the disks are really scratched), but it...

Ok, can a network cable be split into 2, YES and NO :) A regular cat 5 cable has 8 wires, but only 4 are used for tcpip, thus you can have 2 connections with 1 cable. That's the YES, the NO part is, you need some form of router to hook 2 computers to one high speed connection. What you are...

I had purchased one of the 2900 from Ecost a month and a half ago, and it is great. I would keep my eyes on ecost, as they 2900 listing seems to disappear/reappear all the time. It is strange that your order got canceled. When I ordered mine, the ecost rep was pretty good at letting me know when...

Hi Dave, I have watched my copy, and have gone over the 13:40 - 13:46, but I am unable to see any problems... I thought I remember seeing another issue, but I don't remember where it was. I will have to finish watching.. Kimo

Actually make that around 17 minutes 12 - 13 seconds. I am using a Denon 2900 in case anybody was wondering. Kimo B.

I noticed some video jumps in Raiders, anybody else. Specifically in Title 1 Chapter 6, at roughly 17 minutes 15 seconds. Indy is walking, and the video skips. I searched this thread, but could not find anything about a skip/jump... Kimo B.

MattJS, Glad to hear I am not the only one. I was suprised that I did not see it before, and then all of a sudden, there they were. I spent a while trying to make sure it was not my TV, and finally just decided to by pass the reciever, and viola, things looked better. I wonder if it is just a...

Hi MattJS, I also have a Sony 4ES, and noticed some interesting vertical "white" lines when going through the 4ES. (also using s-video). They went away when I went directly into the TV (I have a Panny 53wx43). I decided that it is either feed from the 4ES, or from the cable. I just decided...

I have purchased 2 Denon refub units from ecost.com. First was the 1600, and it worked great until it was stolen. I now have the Denon 2900, and it also works great. I just purchased the extended warranty from Ecost.com to be "safe". Kimo B.

Every once in a while you can find some good component shelves at Circuit City. That is where I got mine. Kimo B.

While a minor surface scratch is probably ok, it drives me nuts when I get new discs that have scratches on them. I guess I am too anal about this. I have noticed lately though, that the quality of DVD cases has gone down. I purchased 10 disks the other day (from a mix of studios) (I am...

Gene, I agree with you that the Denon 2900 is a great player. I have been listening to a lot of SACD's lately, and they sound fantastic. (I really like the 3 doors down SACD, and the Thriller mix is good too. I noticed an improved sound after I recalibrated my system (via Video Essentials)...
