Jesse, I got an Antique Sound Labs AQ1003DT integrated off of ebay a couple of months ago with upgraded tubes for $500. My model is from last year without the biase meter on top, I love the sound of this amp and it drives my B&W CDM-7NT (Sensitivity 90db) without any problems. Jolida 202a is...

THanks Wayne, I was up there looking at the Sony Mega Changer but is now more interested in a Olympus digital camera that they carry. Just wondering is it a legitimate business.

Has anyone ever done business with www.hotbuyselectronics.com? They carry Denon and Sony and others at a very decent price. Just wondering if it's a good place to buy from. Thanks in advanced!

The 4S11 cable is a very good cable, they can be use for center. EC offer very good service when I bought IC from them. Most of the custom cable builder provide pretty good service from what I've read on this forum.

If you're looking for Canare Starquad 4S11 cable, here's a couple of places that build them. I know there are more but can't remember right now. www.elementcable.com www.signalcable.com

Thanks JohnSer, Definately not the chassis, it goes away when the amp get warm. I should contact HK. Good Day! ;)

Thanks JohnSer, The buzzing is definately coming from the receiver, while the buzzing is going on, the sound coming out of the speakers sounds fine. What can I do?

My Harman Kardon avr510 makes this buzzing sound sometimes when it is first turned on, after a few minutes, the receiver gets warmer and the buzzing goes away. This doesn't happen all the time, just more likely if I haven't use it in a while. This is something I have noticed for over a year now...

These are a few site to check out, these cables would probaly be in the same league as the Monster or better for cheaper. www.bluejeanscable.com www.heartlandcables.com www.elementcable.com www.catcables.com Link Removed www.rhinocable.net there's a few more but I can't remember...

I've read several of articles that the Rega Planet is warm sounding, I've never heard it but it's a player you might want to check out. There's one on ebay now that is within your budget. Good Luck!

Thanks Mark, for your evaluation of the bullet plugs. I'll check audiogon.

I'm planning on building some interconnects using Eichmann Bullet Plugs, what are your opinions on them and where can I get the best price. Thanks in advance!

Stephen, Here are some other options to try from some of the custom cable manufacture, I'm not sure they are better than what BC have but probaly on the same level. IMO www.boldercables.com www.elementcable.com www.bluejeanscable.com www.signalcable.com

If you plan on using a sub, then set the crossover at 80 so you can let the sub handle all lower frequencies. THX recommend setting the crossover at 80hz for hometheater applications. If you don't have a sub then the Denon would definately be a better choice as far as bass management goes. My...

Andrew, I'm sure most of the custom cable maker that gets mentioned on this forum will build whatever you need if you contact them, they seem to have very good customer service and will cater to your needs. Here's a few to try www.boldercables.com www.elementcable.com www.catcables.com...

I've had the 51s500 for about 3 months, and I would buy it all over again. The picture is clear and the colors are vibrant, paid a little bit under 2K at CC. You probaly can get a better prices now, Recommended.

I heard that the Denon 2900, has the BM issue worked out. The 5900 would be great. :)

Simon, The low sub output level is normal with sony sacd players, I was confuse why I could not hear bass from my sony scd-c555es player until I learned that the bass management in sacd players (not just sony's)has major design flaws. The sacd signal has to pass through the players PCM domain...

Try the Outlaw M-Block www.outlawaudio.com

Try element cable biwire, they are within your budget and warm sounding. www.elementcable.com

kanian, I'm using element cable biwire speakercable from my B&W cdm-7nt to my HK avr510/Rotel rmb1075 combo with great result. They clearly beat my Tributaries and are one of the best looking cable I've seen at this price, no buyer remorse here. Check them out, they are at elementcable.com)

A y connector does boost the dB a little bit, I say just keep it and save the trouble of going to return it.

Ozwald, I just bought a component cable from elementcable.com last week, their price is very good and they're very profesionally made. The picture I got was noticeable better than the Monster cables I had before, they also offer a 30 day money back guarantee so that helps. Their website had...

My thought on cables, Two things that make the most difference to me in cables is the wire gauge and the difference between silver and copper. I never heard any difference from oxygen free copper versus regular copper given that they are the same gauge and same type of construction. There are...

The 3mm heatshrink will probaly work for you, the ratio is listed as 3:1, but it will shrink a little more. Good Luck

75 ohm coaxial should be fine, I m using belden 89259 75ohm coaxial for my sacd with great results, 75 ohm coaxial would even work for digital coaxial cable if you want.

I noticed yesterday that while watching DVD's using the component video output, I could not pull up my receiver (HK 510) on screen menu (OSD). When I use composite video cable this was possible. Anyone experience this?

I picked up the S500 yesterday at CC and is very happy with the set so far. The picture looks terrific and the stretch mode was fine also, I don't know what the stretch mode for the F500 looks like but Im definately happy with the S500. The listed price at CC was $2,245 and I paid $1,975...

Thanks for the comments, what about Mitsubishi 48 in. Gold Series and Platinum Series? I wonder if they have good 4:3 stretch mode. Craig you said that the edges of the screen looked warped and the edges of the image was pulled of the screen , was this the main reason why you returned it...

I have narrow my widescreen HDTV ready sets to the Hitachi 51F500 and the Sony KP51WS500, they are both 51 inch. I heard Mitshubishi makes really good TV's but they don't make a 50 in. I think 55 is a little too big for our living room. Need your help on choosing which is the better TV, any...
