I see both are around the same price and are most likely the best bets in overall performance in the under $1000 price range cylinders. While it is probably splitting hairs about which one is better since they would both be excellent performers, do you think the XBL^2 technology with the...
Specifically, any info about the DVDS-97S(video DAC, deinterlacer, MPEG decoder)? I read a press release during CES about them but there was nothing specific. I have a Technics DVD-A10 in for repair, and the warranty company has decided it's not economical to fix, so they are replacing it...

I was flipping through the HD channels that are available in my area from Comcast and I was suprised to see UFC 44 being shown on INHD. I know it's one event old as 45 was shown on PPV a few weeks ago, but I thought it was cool they were replaying it on something other than PPV and in HD. Are...
Back when I first decided to try my hand at building a DIY sonotube enclosure, about 5 years ago, I built a tube with a ported top cap(6" dia. 19.25" long port). I realized after double checking my math that I made it way too big for the Shiva that I was planning to put into it(it would have...
I've always had my Center on top of my RPTV(you can click on my website if you want a picture), angled down to the listening position. I've been happy with its performance there, but for the heck of it, I decided to move it down below and in front of the TV while the wife and kids were gone...
Has anyone got one yet? I did a search, but there were no posts from actual users. I'm interested in how the video & audio quality compares with the 2900 and how well the bass management is implemented. DJ
I never use PIP, POP, or the split-screen capability of my Mitsubishi TV, but with events in Iraq and the start of the NCAA basketball tournament, I've found that the split-screen feature is actually very useful. Does anybody else use their PIP functions for this or other purposes? DJ
I was watching TV with my wife and flipping through the cable channels when I saw a flash of a very haggard looking Johnny Cash, so I paused to see what was going on, and lo and behold I found myself watching a Johnny Cash video on one of the country music video channels. Now, I never linger...
I'm moving some equipment around and my power amp's cord(Sunfire Cinema Grand) is not long enough to reach the outlet anymore. If I get a sturdy power cord extender, do you think there will be any appreciable loss? Thanks, DJ
One of the local high-end shops in my area is closing out a Jolida JD 603A CD player. From what I understand it is based on a Philips player and has a tube output stage.
It sounded very good hooked up to a tube pre-amp and amp, but since it was not hooked up to my equipment with music...
I own a pair of B&W CDM 9NTs in a room with a tile floor. I have tried placing the speakers on mats, wooden slabs, and even directly on the tile.
I am wondering if there is anything in particular I should try since I'm always on the lookout for modifications to squeeze out a bit more...
We just moved into a new house a few months ago and I have been wanting to pick one up based on the recommendations here, so I went down to the music store and got a BFD 1124.
I hooked it up and spent a few hours figuring out how it worked and started taking some measurments with it in bypass...
We moved into our house several months ago, so I finally got around to making a Home Theater website.
My rack is very spartan compared to some of you--just the basics, but it gets the job done for a very pleasing movie watching experience.

I finally got spouse approval for a progressive scan DVD player to go with my Mits 55908(I'm using an interlaced Technics DVD-A10 right now).
If I'm going to buy now, then I would get a Panasonic RP91, but I wonder if I should wait until after Christmas and see if they come out with a newer...
