    Sony STRDE897 Questions

    Looks like there are several versions of this receiver around :frowning: Just got one for my secondary system, and it only has optical inputs for TV/SAT, MD/TAPE, SA-CD/CD, an optical output labeled MD/TAPE, and coaxial inputs for DVD and SA-CD/CD. I used the coaxial for the DVD. Michael, if...

    News for Corrs fans

    Yep, the EPK is just fantastic!!! ;) If you haven't heard it yet, what are you waiting for? RUN... Hope we can get the acoustic versions in some later Special Edition. "Borrowed Heaven" seems to be a much stronger album than "In Blue", with a more mature and irish sound.

    3802 Remote Control - battery life

    The batteries that came with my 3802 lasted less than 3 months, and that was with little use, mostly on weekends. Hope the new alkalines do better.

    Slight "tick" thru speakers when I raise/lower volume on Denon 3802

    I have a 3802 and sometimes I can hear a faint click sound when adjusting the volume. But it is only noticeable when very close to the speakers and there's no source playing. Otherwise it is completely inaudible. According to the Secrets website, this is normal with digital volume controls:
