I'm a favorite of most any John Wayne film. Not a fan of his politics, but as a Western Hero he just can't be beat. I personally liked Laredo as a favorite Western; one among many that would tie for 1st place in my book of fandom.
Funny, looking back on this thread. I wonder what if any difference the super versions of the DTS/DD debate have going on now. LOL Bet the debate still rages on. ;)
Ed, Got a new BD Disc called Stargaze HD. Display from the player says: Dolby True HD 8.05 Mbps (varible)/ 30 Mbps Video =Mpeg4 AVC 7.05 Mbps (varible)/ 40 Mbps So, my guess is it's playing TrueHD per the software at # Mbps of a possible 30 Mbps....same as with the video. That was...
With all I've read I still can't figure out what my Pioneer 51FD is able to send over the analog outputs to my Elite (non-HDMI) Receiver. If I click on the audio button on the remote, while playing a TrueHD track, it will display TrueHD as the audio track being played. Is it a true TrueHD output...
I hope you're not getting all old and tried on me now ;) What would I do without you to actively keep me in line with the real audio world. I would like to get my room acoustiucally measured, hopefully I will be able to find someone local who can help me with that, equipment and skill wise...
Of course I don't really know, objectively speaking, that the room treatments I installed are really improving the sound quality, or if it's just my highly questionable subjective interpretation of what I'm hearing ;) A double blind test might even reveal that I can't tell the difference with...
For those of you researching the objective end of the discussion, Audioholics is doing a multi part article de-bunking expensive speaker cables :D And they say audio subjectivists can't look at both sides of the issue ;) http://www.audioholics.com/techtips/...snake_oil1.php
Robert, Whether this is relevant (see link) to the discussion or not I leave to your judgement. I found it a fascinating, but very long read...it made me question some things...for believe it or not I really am more of an objectivist than subjectivist when it comes to most things...but not...
Dana, there's more to this then a simple disagreement among friendly forum buddies. This issue has some personal history, especially between a few of the players here, myself included. Comments like yours push some emotional buttons; yours may have been more innocent than it seemed, but the use...
Samuel Adams leans to the warm side, with a darker presentation; I like a brighter, more up front taste like with Tsingtao. Though some say they both taste exactly the same, and this would be proven in a double blind taste bud test. The DYI beers can be great, but soldering the hops is tricky...
The reproduction of sound came first, if you are looking at it from a perception point of view; as in the brain processes the sound it receives from it's sense organs; without the sound reproduction happening first, the brain would have nothing to process.
