    Newbie DVD Player Question

    I've got a question for you guys. I just finished watching Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Throughout the entire film I could hear the whirring of the DVD player. It was rather annoying. Is this something that's to be expected with DVD players or is there something wrong with the Sony I bought...

    Newbie DVD Player Question

    Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check if my stereo has the space however because I already have my sattelite receiver going through my stereo. I'm not sure whether I'm using both of my stereo's jacks. Oh how I hate moving my entertainment center!

    Newbie DVD Player Question

    I purchased the Sony DVP-NS300. It was actually $189 instead of $199. It was surprisingly simple to install. I've only got 2 bose speakers so I just hooked it up to my TV and I'm getting my stereo sound through my usual TV hookup. I know I'm missing out on surround sound, but I'm waiting to...

    Newbie DVD Player Question

    I'm going out now to do some comparison shopping at my local Best Buy and Circuit City. I don't have a HDTV and I don't plan on getting one anytime soon. I've got a 32" Toshiba stereo TV w/PIP. I've got a couple of video game systems and a satelite system hooked up to it. I can run the sound...

    Newbie DVD Player Question

    Thanks for the advice, especially the cords. I need new speaker wire, I might as well get some decent cords for the system. One of the things I was wondering about was whether to get a dedicated DVD player, or a player that plays music CDs/DVDs/VCDs/etc. Does a 5 disc system sacrifice image...
