Kane, I helped a friend with a HTIB purchase recently and under $500.00 (US) this was the best sounding and performing HTIB we found. I think you will be very happy with it.
I love this place! See Daniel, everybody here is extremely helpful. There are some very valid points brought up here in this context with some excellent suggestions. Keep in mind that is a forum consisting of extremely enthusiastic audio-video buffs, for whom this hobby is a passion. It can...
Daniel, Hi and Welcome! I would definitely recommend this model from Panasonic - the SC-HT900. I have heard this at my friend's house and it sounds and performs pretty good. I haven't found anything else under $500.00 that looks or sounds as good.
Hi Robert. Congratulations on the fine purchase. I'm sure you'll enjoy the superior picture quality for many years to come.:) Here is what I would suggest: Even though the Sony DVD player you have is not a progressive scan player, you will definitely get a lot better picture than you are...
Mr. Bob, I had to reset my audio preferences to 'Bitstream' after I flashed my player. Ofcourse, it doesn't hurt to double check your connections and cables and your selection on the receiver/SSP. If these things don't fix it, try unplugging the unit from the power source, wait a few seconds...
Scott, My 2001 zooms non anamorphic 4:3 letterbox movies beautifully. In 1080i. People, I put up the resolution patterms in Avia in the 2001 again today and guess what, it resolves all the lines beautifully in both 480i and 480p. When switched to 1080i, the resolution drops noticeably. In...
Hi folks. Jay, When I used the terms 'film-like' and 'real' in this context, what I meant is that the mpeg decoder in that generation of panasonic machines, the 91, 82, etc., outputs a fantastic picture (for DVD standards) that just jumps out at you on a properly calibrated HDTV monitor. I...
Hi. I just got my LiteON 2001 yesterday. I have the latest firmware (229), have only component video hooked up in 1080i mode, Macrovision is off, and am watching it on an ISF calibrated Toshiba 65H80. My question is this: Has anyone checked the resolution pattern in Avia on this player...
Wow, so many views, not one post. Hmmmmmm..... If you are interested in this wonderful PDA, please make me an offer. If it is reasonable, there is no reason we can't help each other out. :)
Hi. I have a Athlon 1.1 Gig machine with 512 MB Ram, 200 GB Hard drive, Windows XP, Creative 5.1 Live Platinum, and an ATI AIW Radeon video card. This is the first AIW card based on the Radeon chips, I believe the 7200. I also have a DVD-ROM drive and a CD-RW drive. What I would like to do is...
Hi. Up for Grabs is a Sony CLIÉ™ PEG-NX70V - The esteemed Planet PDA Product of the Year. It has a built in glorious color screen, digital camera, MP3 Player with included remote and earbuds and more... I bought this unit brand new, but am putting it up for sale because I need the money and...
Sorry Eric_R_C, haven't been to the forum for a while, so didn't get a chance to answer your question.
The 504 does not have a PCM digital out, it has a DOLBY DIGITAL (AC-3) RF out.
However, this doesn't mean you can't listen to the regular 2 channel PCM soundtrack on the discs, it will use...
Thanks Gruson
I've been looking at Ebay. I might just have to do that, although I'd still rather buy from a HTF member :)
To all who have emailed me:
Thanks. I should have added this in my first post, so my bad. I was looking to spend upto $100.00 for an opened set in excellent condition...
Justin,
The 504 does not have a digital output, only the AC3-RF output and analog outputs. I'm talking about the audio part of it. The 704 does have all of these and it has a digital out. What does that mean to you in the real world? On the 704 you will be able to play the DTS LDs as well...
How about a 504. It has AC-3 RF out and flips sides automatically. Works great and has seen little use. Maybe we can work something out. Let me know. Asking $200.00 I can throw in some nice LDs for free.
