I know Warner has defected to the blue side and everyone is saying the war is over, but personally I haven't heard the fat lady sing yet. My question is, with blu-ray singing victory and the recent press releases stating 10mill BR players in the US by end 2008, who's going to buy them? There's...

Just happened to be in at my local retailer to check out the HD-DVD selection, and wouldn't you know they had 2 copies of V for Vendetta. Picked one up and watched it this afternoon. All I can say is the PQ/SQ is reference material. A must buy. Post Edited by Administrator, please do not name...

Recapping my issue with my NAD T773: Unit would exhibit an excess of hiss and hum after sending a signal to the unit via optical from my DVD or cable box. Tried everything to remedy the problem but nothing worked. After some communication with the wonderful people at NAD I decided to drive...

56TXi/NAD S250 or NAD T773 Hey guys wondering if you could help me out. Right now I have the 56TXi/NAD S250 in my setup. I have an opportunity to trade it for a NAD T773(week old) and some $$$. Should I do it? Kevin

You here about people replacing their stock power cords on their receivers and amps. Just curious if anyone has done it with their DVD player. Except for maybe improving on the EMI/RFI what other advantages would there be. Kevin

I just picked up a NAD S250 which has individual gain knobs on the back for each channel. Do I set them to max or will that introduce hiss? Kevin

If you had a choice of either an Aragon 3005 or NAD S250 which one would you pick? Currently I have the Rotel RMB-1095 but I'm looking to try something different. Basically I can sell my amp and pick up either one of the the two I mentioned above. The Aragon in NIB and the NAD is 3mths olds...

Just curious what you guy/gals think about using either a Yamaha RX-V1400 or Marantz SR5400 as a pre/pro. It would be paired up with a Rotel RMB-1095 amp. Powering a Paradigm Studio(v3)40/20/570 5.1 setup. Kevin

In a previous thread I asked a question about my houshold voltage reading in at 115v-118v. Household . I was wondering would my setup benefit from a Monster Voltage Stabilizer. Everything in my setup except my amp states Power requirements of 120v. Kevin

Just curious what is classified as too low for your household voltage. I just got a Monster HTS5000mkII and the dial read 115-118v. Would that be classified as normal? Kevin

I just traded out my Rotel RMB-1095 and Monster HTS1000mkII for a Rotel RMB-1075, Monster HTS5000mkII and Rotel RSP976(v2). Now I have a dillema. Currently I'm using a Yamaha RX-V1400 as a pre/pro, but now I have this 3week old 976. If you had to choose which one would you keep. HELP ht_addict

They also mentioned about RCA caps, but at $32US for tweleve and my receiver has a lot of inputs would using...

I read in a previous thread responded by Michael TLV that the Panasonics skimp on black paint on the insides of their sets. This can lead to more reflections. WHat I'm wondering is if anyone has gone out of their way to add an extra coating of paint to the internal walls of their setup? How easy...

I just noticed on my Premier S-series of stands while I was filling the center post with sand that the top plate has holes on 4 corners which I believe is for isolation spikes. Where can you get these spikes as none came with the stands. Kevin

Just picked up the latest issue of S&V to find the Paradigm Studio 40v3 Home Theater System was reviewed. The seup consisted of 40's, CC570, ADP470 and Seismic 12 sub. Since I own the Studio 40(v3) and love the sound I wanted to know what a magazine reviewer had to say. Kevin
