I use the digital audio out from my 2015 Samsung H6350 to my 2010 Marantz AVReceiver and I do get 5.1 surround from at least the Netflix app. With a 5.1 movie played on my cable box connected to the TV via HDMI, if I set the AVR to TV input it is only stereo but setting the AVR to the cable box...
I believe I have an open pcie x1 slot. I'm assuming Premiere Elements can directly capture .avi files from the camcorder thru Firewire? Not sure which program Windows XP had something that captured from the camcorder but I remember it saved as .avi files. Avi would be the best quality? Somewhere...
What is the best way to get high quality video from miniDV tapes made on a Panasonic PV-GS120 and VHS SP tapes on a Windows 10 PC?
My old Windows XP PC had a Firewire connection. I had used a DVI to Firewire cable and the Panasonic supplied software or built in Windows media creator to import...
Do you mean 601? I tried 4 of them along with a Rotel avr receiver and the blended well with the BW asw600 sub but in its current setup my room sounded too bright. I tried them along with a 602 for front and a Marantz 7001 and stereo sounded great. Marantz could not blend the sub well though...
I tried out the rotel 1057 with 4 601s3 and the LCR60. The box the front 2 came is was damaged in shipping and as a result the left front had no tweeter output. The center channel seemed fine, never having a surround system before I'm not quite sure if you would need anything more for a small...
I just tried out BW LCR60 for the center channel along with 4 601s for the front and surrounds. The 601s could not be closer than about 16 from the 27" CRT TV. The LCR60 center was directly above and caused no problems with the picture. (I tried it alongside the tv to check and also no...
Any thoughts as to which CDs would be good to carry around to the stores to gauge speaker quality? I've heard people mention Pink Floyd but I guess something with a wide dynamic range. For the HT part I bought a used dvd of Fantastic Four because that's what I listened to in the 1st store and...
Would a Marantz 7001 have any advantage over a Rotel 1057 for a 5.1 system? They are about the same price, the 7001 has the mic to with eq for each channel but the Rotel gives much more flexibility with the setup, i.e you can have different levels set for each different source and set the...
I am looking into a getting a surround receiver, probably Rotel 1057 with either B&W 601 or 602 bookshelf speakers or the new Paradigm Titan models around the same size. At the store the Paradigms were connected to a Marantz 5001 and the B&Ws were connected to the Rotel 1057 with a B&W AS600...
I would be very interested to know how the 4001 works out. I am considering a 5001 with B&W 601 and 602 spkrs. Don't know if I should spend the extra money on Rotel 1057 which is what the B&Ws were hooked up to in the store. Marantz 5001 had paradyne spkrs so I'm not sure if the different...
