Im considering the Denon AVP A1HD as a pre. For some reason Denon thinks all europeans want their equipment in silver, which really wouldnt match the rest of my equipment, so its not an option for me. Does anybody know is the US or Canadian version og AVP A1HD is able to accept 220v/50hz...
The Svs PB ultra13 finally arrived at my home yesterday. Now im trying to get it to work with my paradigm servo 15. When calibrating the speakers are set to 75 db om a test signal, and using one sub the output is around 80. Ok, using 2 subs now should give me a 6 db increase. So what do I do...
When feeding a receiver with a HD signal from a blu ray player does it matter what video chip the receiver has, or is that only used for upscaling non 1080p source material? Does the realta chip for exsample in any way effect a 1080p signal. I would prefer the receiver just being transperent...
I currently use the sunfire grand cinema as an amplifier and a denon as a pre. They are connected with rca cables. Thinking about buying the new Marantz AV8003 as a pre and connecting the speaker channels via the balanced XLR connections. One of my subwoofers dosens have a XLR input...
With the upcoming blu ray players like the pana BD50, that is able to decode all HD sound formats and send them as PCM to the receiver or pre amp, is there any advantage in having af pre amp that can decode the HD sound formats ? As long as its able to receive a 7.1 PCM signal via hmdi and...

I had already decided to buy the rambo set that streets on may 21. But it looks like they didnt include any english subtitles, which really annoys me, and maybe I wont buy it for that reason.
I find it much more relaxing to watch the movie with the subtitles on, and I really cant understand...

So far my Pioneer 515 have been able to play all my dvds (around 400), but I have problems with Jin-Roh.

Because of the talk of a defective Heathers dvd on this forum i checked my Heathers, and the disc wouldnt load at all.
Now...on the anchor bay page, it says they will replace it and you just have to send the defective copy to them.
I live in Denmark, and I mailed them to ask if that was a...
I remember being very upset about MGM´s missing subtitles, especially on titles such as Ronin and Stigmata, and I also remember MGM giving a promise to support subtitles in the future on the HTF chat.
But I really feel the battle for subtitle on dvd´s is moving in the wrong direction. And...

According to bullet and babes dvd who is always pretty up to date on future releases from Hong Kong Legends says that HKL has secured the rights to the film.
This is good news indeed since all HKL films are anarmorphic and packed with extras.

Hi group,
I just got my servo-15 today and im trying to get it to work together with my Atlantic Technology 452 thx sub.
I use it with the Denon av1-se.

I have a fairly large room at about 1500 cubic feet.
I have the AT 452 placed in a corner close to the listening position which

As I want more bass and the SVS shipping costs to...
