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...
Hello All, I just received my Denon 2900, and I immediately noticed a "problem" When playing DVD-A/SACD/DVD-V, I have to turn up the volume on the receiver to get to the same levels the Denon 2900 used to produce. For example, when listening to a DVD-A on the Denon 1600, I would never go...
Hello All, I am really thinking about getting an XBOX (I have a PS2 currently), as I would like to get some online games that the PS2 does not have. My big concern is what to do when a games comes out for both the XBOX and the PS2. So, for those of you out there, what do you do? Is it just...
Hello All, Well, now that I have my new receiver, I am trying to decide how to hookup my ps2's sound. Should I use analog or the optical. I have always used the analog in the past, and that was only because all of my digital connections were being used. How does everybody else hook up their...
Ok, I got my new Denon 1600 (well a refurb, but new to me), and also got my new DA4ES. So I went and got the BareNaked Ladies disk and an Eagles disk, and wow is all I can say. I was not 100% sure what to expect, but I am very happy. Hopefully in the future I will get a SACD player and enjoy...
Hello, I have an old Sony DB825 receiver (only does dolby digital), and when I run the test tones, the right speaker is a lot louder than the left speaker. There is no balance option, so I can't even them out. Before I start moving speakers around (to see if the speaker is bad), do receivers...
Hello All, I have searched the forum, and have found a couple of threads that indicate that the 4ES is 2way capable, but that statement seems to be followed with the "This think it is, but not 100% sure). Can anybody tell me for 100% sure that the DA4ES is compatable with sony 2way remotes...
Went to sountrack to look at the Panny 53wx42. I had already decided that I wanted this tv, and with the new models coming out, the prices on the wx42 are dropping. I got it 50 bucks less than the normal clearance price, and it is being delivered tommorow :).... While i was there, I checked...
Hello All, While I am on my quest for the "best" hardware for me, I am wondering what the "real" difference is between the above units. The 1600 uses the Faroudja chip and the 2900 uses the SiI504 chip. Would there be a major difference in PQ? Kimo B.
I have been doing a lot of "searching", and I can't seem to find a DVD player with SACD/DVDA for around 600-700 dollars, that has great video quality. From all of the reviews, the universal players seem to have great audio features, but usually not that great in the video section. I think I have...
Hello All, I am almost ready to purchase a Pioneer Elite/Denon DVD player (have not decided on which one), but was wondering if Pioneer/Denon are as strict as Sony is with there ES line and "who" the products can be purchased from. Kimo B.
Hello All, I am planning on finishing my basement, and want to turn the main portion into a home theater room. The dimensions would be roughly 11feet by 20 feet. The room has a support wall which comes out about 2 feet, and it is almost in the middle of the room. I was planning on having half...
I have been looking at RPTVs for a few weeks now, and now I am thinking about a front projection. My only concern is the lamp life. I will use this as my "normal" tv, which consists of about 30% DVD's (weekend), 60% TV (watching stuff Tivo recorded for me), and 10% PS2..... The panasonic...
Hello All,
I just finished watching TMP, and I was wondering if anybody else noticed some blurring in the picture. For example, when Kirk is talking to Spock on the bridge, part of the picture (specifically behind Kirk) is blurred. I noticed this through the movie. Anybody else?
Thanks...
