The Lex for $1000, and the 5800's for $375 and $325(refurb)each, plus shipping from Montreal, Canada. I was bi-amping a pair of Paradigm Monitor 5's with 4 channels of one of the 5800's, with KimberKable 4TC cables, and the sound was great in stereo and even better with the Lex's Panorama...
I'm putting up for sale one Lexicon DC-1 pre-pro, latest version 4.0 (DD-EX,DTS-ES,THX,7.1). This unit was one of the latest produced, and has the 24 bit DAC's. Excellent condition, with manuals, remote, and box. It's still an awesome unit today, especially with it's Logic7 decoding, which I...
I noticed the same thing on my computer the first time I hooked up the S-video to my TV. I got rid of it by using a cheater plug on the computer power cable, as every other thing I tried didn't work. If you have a printer hooked up to the same PC, this will also create a ground-loop.

Just get at least one pair with the Magna-Sheild option so your center won't mess up you TV's color...
Do any of these players output mp3's through the optical or co-axial digital outputs, or only to the LR analog outs? Do either have time remaining for the disc, as well as for chapters, and that ever elusive 'resume' feature that I love on my old Pioneer?

I needed to dim mine slightly, so I just slipped a...
khang,
Have you seen a 61HX71 yet locally yet? I'm wondering if it will look any better than the H71, and worth the price difference ($300?). I'm still looking for the user manual/specs online, but these sets aren't up on the toshiba.ca/.com sites yet.
For me, the 4:3 seems to be the better...
I've been trying to find a Philips 60PP9601 to check out here in Montreal, but it seems there are none in Canada. Anyone seen any up here?
