    PLIIx Cinema decoding of Dolby Digital 5.1 Sources with Denon AVR 3805

    I dont have a dpl-2x reciver (but a 3802), so i'm only gessing: With a dd/dts signal, the system locks to that procesing. dpl is available as an option with stereo sources. when a dd/dts dvd is playing, the 3802 wont switch to dpl/neo6. Also, with a dd stereo signal coming from the dvd...

    Paradigm's subs

    hi all i've been preparing to buy the servo-15 for a year now, (there's allways something more important to buy, before a behemoth sub...), and now there's 2 more subs in paradigm's arsenal. the sysemic 12 and servo-signature. the signature is too expensive (probably, didnt see it yet), but...

    Dimmers and HT

    i'm not using the dimmers with the tv!!!! that's not what i meant... i meant, can the (expensive) tv set be harmed by the noise in the current (seen on its screen). the tv is plugged into a separate socket, in the same room as the dimmers. thanks for your help anyway!

    Dimmers and HT

    Thanks Ethan I guess I'll have to install variable transformers as you explain. We have 220v in israel. I have an uncle who's an engineer, he will read your explanations, as I've no clue about electricity. He also (as you suggest) installed a regular switch to turn the dimmers on and off...

    Dimmers and HT

    Hi all I've noticed interferences on the TV screen, (a new Phillips 36" 16:9 beast) when the light dimmers in the living room (where the TV's at) are working. if they're closed shut, or at full strength, the picture is clean. It shows when either of the dimmers, even across the room, is...

    Auto Room EQ/MCACC/YPao: Must Have Feature or Overrated.

    For setting your reciever and than leaving it set for 2/3 years, untill you replace it, why would i need this feature? both these machines seems close in specs, weigh about the same (17kg), which can hint at amp section size, but the denon has extra channels (7.1). i would a/b them...

    What's phase?

    Hi all I hear (read...) people talking about a phase feature in their subs (my audiopro subevidence sub hasnt got one), and about dialing/blending it in. What's getting blended? isnt that the crossover's job? Thanks!;)

    help decide on Polk RTi10 vs Paradigm Monitor-9

    If you cant make up your mind, its always good to go and hear some real good setup, with proper amplification (at a higher-end store), and learn what makes a better sound. i remember first time i heard Star wars through a 8-10k system, i was blown away. only than did i start to realize the full...

    help decide on Polk RTi10 vs Paradigm Monitor-9

    Jason Auditioning takes a bit of learning. After hearing a few demonstrations, at different stores, you start to understand the factors that make the speakers sound different, including: your mood (!)... the mood of the session (crowded, relaxed, noisy, ect) the acoustics in the store the...

    Aragon stage one or Denon 4802

    hi i heard an aragon stage one, with their 2007 amp, (driving a set of definitive speakers), in a store (went in to check on projectors), and i was blown away (!!!) by this combo. as i have a humble 3802 (driving paradigm ref setup), i cant compare it to 4802, but it definitly is something from...

    How long does it take to set-up a speaker system?

    :) , it depends, are you gonna be tired?... do you have to mount the surrounds on walls? (if yes, night isnt a good time)... do you have enough wires? (running to the store not counted)... just placing your speakers on the floor and connecting them doesnt take long. have a nice...

    Plasma vs. LCD

    Hi I’m no expert, but seems to me that in the long run, lcd would prevail. it feels like a simpler (no pressurized gas...) technology. but that’s just speculating over what i read...lcd, right now, excides hd resolution, and hit the 40" size, with room to grow. also, plasma has the fading...

    buying svs's Q's

    thanks guys, i think i'll go out and listen to a pw2200 (my system is paradigm reference + 3802, with an 8" 100w toy sub), see the price on that, and decide. i really like the white finish on the pb-1 ( easier on other, strange, not ht lovers, walking through my living room...), so the...

    buying svs's Q's

    Hi all I'm considering SVS's new PB1-ISD, as even with the shipping costs, its a good deal. (about 1000$) Comparable product, here in israel, is a Paradigm ps1000, which i believe, the svs is much better. Am I right? does it sound like a good deal? is it safe to buy a product without a dealer...

    paradigm surrounds colors

    my v2 adp's were hung on the back wall of my new apartment living room, and they look, well, as they are, very big, very square, and yes, very black!!! does the new v3's come in lighter finishes? their site isnt saying so. some manufacturers make the surrounds white, which is smart!.

    Paradigm 470 vs 570. Which one for HT?

    VinnieR, shouldnt the store call you up, recalling the bad speaker from their own initiative, not waiting for you to call them first??? nice story telling, anyway!...:-)

    Denon AVR4802R or ?? Please Help !

    with these speakers, a 4802 is the least you can use. i mean, these are big, quality speakers, that deserve good amplification. 1200 seems low for 4802, no? btw, my 3802 is doing a good job driving studio's 60's.

    Denon 3803 question

    sounds a bit messy to me; going from a digital stream (sacd) to analog in the sacd player, than back to digital in the recivers chips. why cant it stay digital all the way. let the player read the info, and one machine decipher it. no?
