    Small room and THX ultra speaker package - bad combination?

    Hey, Marco, I know it's been 3 years, but a friend is now trying to buy the Jamo D6 for his room measuring 3.8m x 4.6m. Since you had the D6 system running in a smaller room than that, I was wondering how it sounded. Do you still have the system? Appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

    Smallville Season 5: No ENGLISH Subtitles! Why? Does R2 have them?

    Folks, I just received Smallville Season 5, region 2, from Amazon.co.uk and wanted to confirm the fact that it DOES have English subtitles unlike its region 1 counterpart. I simply cannot understand Warner's logic... :confused:

    Smallville Season 5: No ENGLISH Subtitles! Why? Does R2 have them?

    Precisely my point, Gord. Is there any way we can confirm English ST in region 2? Here's where I saw it mentioned: http://www.thehut.com/hut/8545432.product

    Smallville Season 5: No ENGLISH Subtitles! Why? Does R2 have them?

    And, I read some place that R2 has them. So, isn't Warner cutting costs on those? But I don't have confirmation on the R2 ST. Anybody?

    Smallville Season 5: No ENGLISH Subtitles! Why? Does R2 have them?

    Yeah, it has Closed Captioning but those don't help when viewing through a projector or through a TV that does not support CC. Does no one here own the region 2 set? No ideas why Warner left out English ST in this set only? The HD-DVD of season 5 has English STs. So, why not this?? :confused:

    Smallville Season 5: No ENGLISH Subtitles! Why? Does R2 have them?

    Just realized that Smallville season 5 has no English subtitles!! I don't understand why this is since seasons 1-4 had them. Any ideas? Also, does anyone know for sure whether the UK version of season 5 has English subtitles? Thanks in advance!

    Paul, Could you please check and let me know whether or not World at War has English subtitles? I have the BBC History of WWII box set and that has. Thanks a lot.

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Pretty Woman 15th Anniversary Edition...WARMLY RECOMMENDED...

    DaViD, A little OT, but since you mentioned the OPPO, I'd to know whether it's HDCP-compliant. My Sanyo PLV-70 is NOT HDCP and therefore, I won't be able to use the Oppo if it is compliant. Please clarify. Thanks

    The Passion of The Christ subtitles

    The R1 DVD comes in 2 flavors: U.S. and Canadian. The U.S. version has player-generated subtitles in the picture area (above black bar). The Canadian version has the subtitles appearing on the bottom black bar. Also, the U.S. subtitles are white and small whereas the Canadian ones are yellow and...

    Adult movies - Widescreen w/ Surround?

    Most Andrew Blake features are Anamorphic WS with DD 5.1 surround. Don't think they have DTS, though.

    BBC History of World War II

    How do these two (World at War & BBC HOWW2)series differ? If I want a definitive history which should I go for? If I buy both, would there be a lot of overlapping material? How well is the Battle of Britain and U-boats covered in each of the series? Thanks.

    If anyone was able to compare the two releases, please post the findings. I've got the original release. I'm wondering whether to double dip. I would gladly do so if there's an improvement in the PQ. Thanks.

    From the Marantz 8200 to the Marantz sr-18ex...A smart move?

    John, Thanks a lot for your detailed comparison. The reason I asked was because I own an SR-19 and was interested in knowing the differences between the two generations. I'm very happy with the 19. The only drawback for me is the lack of 6.1/7.1. Need to upgrade soon... ;)

    From the Marantz 8200 to the Marantz sr-18ex...A smart move?

    John, Would you say that, in terms of the preamp section, the SR-19 is inferior to the 8300? If so, are the differences very noticeable? Also, when you say, "...it sounds a lot like my 8300," in what ways does it NOT sound like your 8300? Thanks.

    Rotel or NAD for B&W705

    kiki, Wouldn't the 1095 be a better amp than the 1075? Did you decide on the 1075 based on budget? I was thinking of getting the 1095.
