    Dio's Holy Diver to be remastered

    SWEET! Let's just hope they don't drop the ball on this one, so many CDs are being POORLY remastered these days. IIRC it was Black Sabbath that was remastered poorly, and RJD sang for Sabbath for some time. I hope this connection doesn't translate into digital. :D

    How Do Digital Receivers (like HK 2005) Handle 4 Ohm Loads? More Power into 4 Ohms?

    I'm speaking just from that Panasonic point of view (XR25/45/50/55/70 line). It is true that they can HANDLE them, but not very well. TI's documents of their chip (the heart to the Panny and some other lines) show that the high frequencies roll off as more power is pumped into a lower...

    X-Arcade Solo for sale!

    No, the joystick doesn't (and I'm happy about that). IMHO: Force feedback is nice and fun, but with a joystick, it takes away from the precision.

    Can't decide between Panny XR70 and Pioneer 1014

    I can always wire my speakers through the sub and use its crossover.

I have the serial adapter, PS2, and X-Box. I'll make pics available upon request. I still have the box as well and will ship it...

    Can't decide between Panny XR70 and Pioneer 1014

    Whichever I buy I'll be taking to college, so space is a priority. Immediately, this makes me think Panny. Plus, I don't use analog inputs, again, Panny. However, my Polk speakers (which I adore, RTi6) are only 89 dB/w efficient, so I'm concerned about power. In college, I will be bi-amping the...

    Help with computer Hi-Fi

    As for the sound card, if you don't play games, the DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT get a Soundblaster. They excel at one thing: games. Other than that, you can do just as good, if not, better, for cheaper. If you don't play games, or music is prioritized over games, then check out the Chaintech AV-710...

    Need reciever choice help QUICK! Should I get this 3805??!?!

    I have an opportunity to get a used Denon 3805 for $550 + shipping. I'm a bit conflicted. I was going to wait for the new digital recievers coming out soon, but this seems like a damn good deal. Whatever new reciever I get will be coming with me to college, and the only reason I havn't pulled...

    Good reciever for College and Home?

    I'm a bit conflicted right now. I'm using an Onkyo TX-SR501 and it has served me well, but I'm getting the upgrade bug a bit. Now, I'm a senior in high school right now, and am going to college in August (University of Michigan, Go Wolverines!). I would like to buy something rather portable. At...
