Saw this: http://www.mccormackaudio.com/index2.html But its a bit out of my price range. I want a mid-fi solution (< $500)

I was in Circuit City today and they were showing Apollo 13 on one of their Hitachi TVs. To put it bluntly, the picture looked horrible. I figured it was becuase of their eqipment, so I went home to check it out on my steup. Although it looked much better at home, the picture was still...

I'm interested in a, preferrably new, Sony TA-P9000ES. I've looked ALL over and cannot find one, as they have been discontinued. Keep in mind that this is the *P* model, not the E model. It is a 5.1 pre-amp. Is there a replacement for this produt or does anyone have any idea where I might...

I suppose this should go under the other The Upgraded Anthem AVM-20 2.0 Thread but its already at about 20 pages and my question keeps getting lost in the shuffle. Maybe this should be part II of that thread? Anyway: Am I the only one that hates to reset the surround modes each time the power...

I just recived this unit yesterday and so far it sounds great. One question though...on the front panel there is a mute LED with a small hole. It would seem that this should be a button rather then a hole. According to the manual it says to "push" it to turn muting on, but there is nothing...

*Sigh* In my continuing adventure with finding a functing TV, it appears that I have yet another problem. This is the fourth TV I have been through in the last month. I was watching TiVo when I noticed a sort of flickering of brightness. It is very subtle, but it is noticable on all inputs...

What are people using for DRC settings for basic analog cable? Interlaced or Progressive? What do people have the Palette set at? Thanks.

Ugh...I just finished setting up my new system and I'm getting distracting bursts of brightness. Its very subtle but very frustrating. I have unplugged just about everything in my house attempting to find the interferance, but haven't found the source. It is not present on my component input...

Anyone buy speaker cables from the user summitsource on Ebay? He sells 10 feet of 12ga monster speaker cable for 5 bucks a piece. Juts wondering if anyone had any experience with him/her. Here is a link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=1366927613

Aside from a Rat Shack switch box is there any "hi-end" way to achieve this?

Just took delivery of my brand new Denon 3800. I haven't hooked it up yet since I'll be moving in about four days, but I did look at the manual. There seems to be an enormous amount of control over picture and audio settings. Hue, Contrast, Delay, etc. What I'm wondering is if I should adjust...

I just put my deposit down on my black AV20, but I'm wondering what processing modes it supports. I can't seem to track down a definitive list. Even their website is missing it, as far as I can tell. Obviously DD and DTS, but what else? Also - what kind of balanced interconnects are people...

I just broke the bank by purchasing an Anthem AV20 pre-amp and Sony 57HW40 rear projection. That said, I am coming to the realiziation that while my display and processing equipment are first class, I'll be limited to some degree by my DVD source which is an older Sony 7700. I've looked at...

While going through some paperwork, I pulled out the manual and paperwork for my XA777ES SACD player. I happened to glance down at the "Limited Warranty" sheet and notice that it said "3 year limited warranty" instead of the 5 year that I thought I was getting. This is, obviously, a Sony ES...

I'm not entirely sure what these pieces are worth, but make me a fair offer and hopefully we can come to a deal. These are available together or separatley. Sony DVP 7700 - Absolutley perfect condition. Babied to the extreme and had very little use. There is not a single scratch or mark on...

I might be purchasing a 1066 soon and am wondering what I should pay for it. Is $1300 reasonable?

I'm currently dealing with a broken Sony 36 TV. Its been repaired once and will be repaired for a second time on Monday. Fortunetly, I purchased the Extended Service Plan from Cicuit City so I'm covered by what they call a "No Lemon" policy. According to this policy after two repairs, if the...

I've had my 36FV15 for about two years and it has performed flawlessly until about two days ago when it just shutdown randomly. I've left the TV on overnight and throughout the day to test it and it has done this two or three times after remaining powered on for several hours. It just shuts...

Due to some problems with my 555es and my itch to have the "best" I've decided to purchase the 777es, but I have one question... Does the main setup give you the ability to switch the CD player to accept CD 1 or CD 2 remote codes as the 555es and 775 do?

I've been enjoying my 555es player in the last week or so up until a few days ago when I discovered the player making this aweful thump, thump, thump sound as certain discs spun inside the player. Its sort of the same effect you might get if you have a flat tire, but a lot faster. It's as...

Just got my 555es a few hours ago. I replaced a 775 with this beast and so far am extremely happy. I've only had it about 4 hours, but here are my thoughts. Here are my inital impressions about unimportant things: Build quality is impressive. The extra weight is noticable.I like the style...

Whats the difference between these amps? I'm thinking of getting one on Ebay...any strong feelings about these units?

I just placed my order with JandR for the '555es. Got it for $569.99 shipped. I think thats a pretty good price. This will be replacing my 775 which I will return. Did I make the right decision? Will I really see that much of a difference in sound quality? I hope so as I really exceeded...

Does anyone else notice a scratchy sound in the wedding sequence of GF I? It is particularly noticable when Fat Clemenza is dancing and demanding wine after his overweight body can't handle the rigors of dancing. I did a search and could find no other posts about this aspect of the soumd, only...
