I am an electrical contractor, and I have been an audio/videophile for years. I wanted to address the "cheater plug" issues in this thread. It is generally not recommended to lift the ground by using a cheater plug. This is not because it can harm the equipment. It is because it could harm...

The displays that you have listed are all very good. You can learn much more about these over at the AVS plasma forum. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/forum...?s=&forumid=40 Regards.

I have a Pioneer DV-05 that exhibits the same problem that you are experiencing. I also tried the laser cleaning method without positive results. The player has never rejected a DVD, but it is becoming much more selective with CD's. Apparently, this is not an isolated problem for Pioneer DVD...

Jeff, Would you be so kind as to enlighten us on the bass management capabilities of the Onkyo. I have been very interested in this player, but I have read conflicting reports on whether it handles bass management for DVD-A, SACD or both, and to what degree. Your help would be appreciated. Jim

Sneezing can put tremendous pressure on the cervical vertebrae of the neck. This pressure can cause temporary compression of nerves that run through the cervical spinal column. If too much pressure is exerted on the nerves, pain can radiate through the shoulders down into the arms. Since each...

I own and operate a mechanical contracting business, and we do a lot of electrical contracting work. During the summer months, when lightning storms are prevalent, we get numerous service calls that are lightning related. Lightning does not need to directly hit your home to cause damage. In...

I have quite a few concert dvd's, and my favorite by far is the ELO "Zoom" dvd. The video quality is very good and the DTS music track continues to amaze me. This is one of the sweetest sounding discs in my collection. If you like ELO, you can't go wrong with this one.

Darrin, Each vest is equipped with one shaker. $20 is a good price. I purchased mine from ebay for slightly below that amount. However, at one time you could get them for less than $10, but due to their recent popularity the prices have increased somewhat. But for $20, you really can't go...

I have two of the shakers mounted to my recliner. I tried only one first, but due to the location of the mount, I felt it more on one side of the chair than the other. This imbalance bothered me. So, I mounted a second shaker to the other side of the chair. This improved the balance and the...

Mike, I was in Vegas three weeks ago. The daytime temp was in the 105 to 108 degree range. Evening temps were around 95. Too hot for me to play golf. I saw several courses from on top of the Stratosphere, but I didn't see any golfers on them. I have played golf in Vegas during the cooler...

My favorite by far is Punch. I have never had one that was defective. They are a little pricy, but well worth it.

If a sports franchise replaces one or more of its players, should they be required to change their name? The Yankees of this year are not the same as last year, not to mention the Yankees of 30 years ago. Musical groups from all genres change members frequently. The Temptations rotated...

On my RDC-7, my settings for DPLll music are: Panorama = ON Center Width = 4 Dimension = 4 I can't discern much, if any difference between panorama settings. However, the center and dimension settings do change the sound environment considerably. I am still experimenting with the...

The official response will always be..."no, it is not safe." However, I have been using cheater plugs on three Acurus amps for five years, and I am still alive. Without the cheater plugs, the ground loop hum on my system is completely unbearable. As long as the amps are built well, and have...

Michael, I have a three year old Pioneer DV-05 player that has been showing the same symptoms as you describe. Although I don't have any answer to the problem, perhaps this is a Pioneer issue. Does anyone else have a Pioneer player that randomly rejects disks?

Dan, Try this link for specs... http://www.citation-audio.com/cit70.html I wouldn't recommend the 5.0. It is 5.1 capable, but the software is buggy. Even the manufacturer discourages people from buying it. The 7.0 does not have inputs for SACD/DVD-A. I don't know where you might find...

Dan, I would highly recommend the Citation 7.0. It is completely analog and very good for both music and movies. It does not have DPL2, but it does have Fosgate's six-axis which I think is just as good if not better than DPL2. Based on your description of what you are looking for, I think...
