I was curious about that too. It's like Ford coming out with a model called Edsel. Or selling Chevy Novas in Mexico, Novas means "no go". The CEO of circuit city got fired by the shareholders and the consumer bascially ignored the product. It was introduced during DVDs infancy and really...

Blame it Denon. I have a master's degree in electrical engineering and I can't stand the manual either (3300). I am not surprised that the 3803 would be baffling.

$1.98 My Denon Rx was not working. It would either not respond to the remote or would respond in a weird fashion. Before I returned to unit (it was only a month old), I posted on the forum asking if anyone else had problems with their Denon receiver - until someone asked me "Did you try...

Far from it. Divx was marketing disaster directed at the wrong consumer with the wrong technology at the wrong time. PPV and VOD have different markets and business philosophy. Plus, I think Mystro TV doesn't "insert" adds, I think it just doesn't allow the viewer to skip them at a push of a...

Go with the Denon. Everywhere I have shopped have stated that H/K is having problems and their quaility is suffering.

I always like to have a dedicated CD player since my receiver can't read my mind on playback preferences. I like to use some DSP processing on my CDs, where as DVDs are stricly Dolby Digital or DTS. I hate have having to switch between different sound processing and settings going back and forth...

Rob, Sorry to hear about your loss, at least it gives you an excuse to upgrade. ;) I have the same receiver and a similar oak cabinet set up. I noticed real soon that the electronics warm up quite quickly. Bob gives some good suggestions. Heat is electronics worst enemy. I have a 12V fan...

I think I replied to another thread but... The short answer is yes. I am very impressed with my DT set up: 2004TLs 2002CLR and BP2Xs The only suggestions is to make sure that the driver compliment is identical across the front, preferable all the way around. I made the mistake of buying...

I've got my 2004's on a Denon 3300. I've also heard Yamaha's are pretty good sounding with DefTech

delete duplicate. Sorry

I purchased the following, sight unheard, due to recommendations from this forum, and unfortunately, a "HT Magazine", (something about strapping rocket to your chair): BP2006TL's C/L/R 2002 BP2X (Wanted BPX, but no stock) I have them paired with a Denon 3300 receiver. I was so happy and...

Paul, (hee-hee he said "butt" :D ) How does the shipping work? They say on the website that you need to arrange that yourself? Tom

Rick, If you can't make it, dovebid will take proxy bids in advance.

Chuck, Some pretty cool stuff. My friend signed up for the auction and might bid for one of the HD plasma monitors. I am looking at and amp and a flat screen computer monitor. I don't think most of this stuff will "go for cheap" - dovebid might require a minimum reserve bid. But it don't cost...

Gentlemen, A friend forwarded this to me. The bankrupt Enron Corp has enlisted dovebid (www.dovebid.com) to offload some high-end consumer electronics. Including, Plasma TVS, RPTV, direct-view TVs, DVD players, computer equipment. Lots of cool stuff...

Interesting. I have a Denon 3300, however I am using the coaxial input. I just purchased a Sony DVP-NC655P (5 disc player) that is hooked up to the optical input. I am using it mostly as a CD player, but I plan on watching a few movies on that player to see if this is a common problem.

I have been using my Toshiba SD-4700 now for about 4 months. I am generally pleased with it's performance with one exception. At least once, sometimes more, on just about every DVD, there is a very slight audio dropout. I thought it was the layer change but it happens at strange times, like 20...

I'm putting the finishing touches on my HT room and remember back that there was this company selling wall plaques - "THX" "DTS" "Home Theater Forum" with logos etc. I can't seem to find my link. Are they still around? Thanks, Tom

I had a CD player that had no power-on/power-off remote control. So I plugged that into the back of my receiver. This got annoying because I ended up turning it off during movies because of the display. Now I have my "mood lighting" connecte to the back. So everytime I power up, the small...

I am trying to set up a Toshiba 34HF81 with a VCR, cable box and, of course a DVD player. I am trying to run independent cable feeds to each the TV, cable box (for premium channels) and the VCR (TV and VCR for basic channels). The cable input goes thru a 2-way splitter, then one branch to the...

I own the 2006TL's and with out a doubt, a dedicated sub is needed.

This is not "normal" for any player. Do you, consistantly, clean the DVD's in question. That usually explains 95% of the problem, the other 5% involved purchasing or repairing the player. Topm

Another vote for Definitive Technology. I just bought: BP2006TL (The smallest powered tower the offer) CLR2002 BP2X (Dipole surrounds) I got out the door, tax and all, for a tad over $2k If you want to spend the other $500, consider upgrading the towers to BP2004TL's or the surrounds to...

Thanks Mike for the insight. I wonder what your opinion would be on the LFE on my system? A Denon 3300, a pair of def Tech powered towers, and a "boomy" Velodyne sub. The 3300 only has on subwoofer output, but also has L and R preouts. Right now I have the Denon setup on "large", left and...

Greetings, My Panasonic DVD-A310 is failing. I am looking at new DVD players and hoped that there was a few good ones that the HTF memebers could recommend? I would like a progressive scan player, but will be running in interlaced mode until I upgrade my RPTV, so good interlaced performance...

I will NOT do a comparision to DVD DD and LD DPL. That is not my gripe with FG. My gripe is this: It says boldly on the box that the mix is a "Dolbly Digital * English 5.1 Surround". Which means to me that all 5 channels and the LFE channel will be utilized for the audio presentation. It is my...

Gentlemen, I was a host to one of those aforementioned htf meets. I have had other priorities than ht lately and have not been on the forum. I have remodeled my ht and will post pics come october. Sorry I missed this one. Please keep me informed of any new ones on the horizom (email link in...
