    Anyone who bought Norh speakers who regret them now?

    A friend of mine is offering to sell me his speakers. I was wondering what your feedback on the Norh 4.0 speakers are now that a lot of you have had those for a while already.

    Radeon 7500 or GeForce3&4

    Locally these are the only two video cards I can purchase. Which of them would provide a better picture for DVD playback? Are the differences that big on a FP system?

    What's your pick of the best music dvd ?

    I agree. Probably a reference DVD when in comes to concerts. Video and Audio recording is top-notch, and the music is just fantastic, whether you're watching in DTS, or Stereo. This concert alone has so much talent all over it. Of course there's Diana Krall, Paulinho deCosta, Anthony Wilson...

    Questions from an SVS user.

    When I watch movies, I like to run my sub a little hot (I'm sure a couple of you do), but when I turn up the sub to enjoy loud low frequencies, sounds such as footsteps get overly heavy. Am I setting my crossover too high? It's set right now at 60hz and turned on since I can't change it in...

    To SVS owners, do you really follow reference settings?

    I'm sure that with this sub a lot of people crank it up more than just 75db or 85db (depending on your speaker settings). But what I want to find out is around how much higher do you usually set your SVS when you watch movies?

    Reference Level- for what room size?

    A lot of us have calibrated our systems to reference levels using SPL meters, and most of us find this setting too loud. Just what room size is the basis for reference level anyway? Maybe its too loud because the rooms we use are too small.

    Is THX better than DTS and DD?

    Thanks. I do know that THX is not a sound format. I guess I should have re-phrased my question. Since the 5803 does let you choose betweem THX, DTS, and DD modes, I was wondering which was best to use since I haven't really had the time to evaluate, and I also wanted your opinions. Hopefully...

    Is THX better than DTS and DD?

    Who uses the THX mode in their receivers? My Denon 5803 is capable but I haven't really explored it yet. So far I've only tried DD and DTS. What does the THX mode do in particular and how does it differ from DTS and DD?

    Diana Krall in Paris dvd - stereo question

    something must be wrong, but not necessarily your receiver. You have to check your connections of course. I listen to DK DVD in stereo all the time and never had any problems. Do you have a calibration disc? you can easily find out what the problem is if you had one.

    Infinity vs. Bose

    I had AM-5's before. For the kind of money I spent on it, I can say it's probably one of my worst purchases of any kind of product in any category.
