    How to calibrate surround system?

    Difference between optical and coaxial?

    I do not believe that there can be no losses however trivial the conversion is. There is no such thing as 0% error in engineering problems IMO.

    Difference between optical and coaxial?

    For the original question of Optical Vs Coax: I would think that coaxial cable has to be better than the optical cable because, the conversion for electrical to optical and back to electrical done to transmit and receive using optical cable has to have some losses..though in small amount. Raj

    Ebay scam. Beware before bidding for high end receivers

    Also, I noticed that these sellers have 70 or 40 or some big number of feedback profile. This used to be a good indicator how the sellers is. But if you check it, none of those transaction involve more than 10-15$. Even no I checked ebay, (for marantz 9200) and there they are!

    Help on selecting HT receiver.

    Ok. I will move to 12'' sub. The reason I selected a 10'' sub was because the monitor 7s had a decent bass performance and assumed that I would not need more bass for movies.. guess I am wrong. Here is what I want from the setup. Even thought good movie performance is a need, I definitely...

    Help on selecting HT receiver.

    Hi Chad, At this point I think I would like to stick with an integrated solution. I have read in this forum that separates are much better.. but I think it will cost me more than my current budget (which already is a bit much :frowning: ) .. Thanks Raj
