While I am enjoying my Sony 70XBR2 very much, I often fear that some power outage is going to wreck havoc on the TV's lamp . When the TV is turned off normally the fan stays on for a good 3 minutes to give sufficient time for the lamp to cool off. But in the event of a power outage the TV will...

Hello, I just purchased a Sony 70 inch XBR2 SXRD and I was wondering if I should use an S Video connection for seeing standard non HD material from DirecTV. I currently have everything (HD and non HD channels) going through the HDMI connection. And while 1080i HD looks awesome, standard 480i...

Hello all, I'm a proud new owner of a Sony 70 XBR2 SXRD, and I must say I love it! What I'm curious about is how do you know if a 480i or 1080i source is being up-converted to 1080p? when watching non HD (480i) programs on DirecTV, the info on the Sony XBR2 only says 480i. On HD programs it...

I am wanting to upgrade to some larger Martin Logans ( currently use Aerius i's), and I'm considering either the Quest Z or the reQuest. Which sounds better and why? Any thoughts? Any input will be appreciated very much. Thanks, SV

Yello has been one of my all time favorite groups for about 10 years now. I have all of their albums, and a lot of their singles with rare tracks and B sides. How many of you listen to yello? I like all of their albums, but my favorites are One Second, Flag, Baby, and Zebra. They are coming out...

I have a Denon AVR-5800 receiver for sale. It is about a year and a half old and is in excellent condition both cosmetically and functionally(no nicks,scratches, or blemishes of any kind). It was used in a smoke free environment, no kids, and was well taken care of. Comes with RF-remote and...

I have a fairly large collection of DD Laserdiscs, but I have no DTS Laserdiscs. I would like to add DTS laserdiscs to my collection. Is anyone selling? SV

I am seriously considering an Integra Research/Balanced Audio Technology RDA-7 multichannel amp. What do you all think of this amp?

I know that this pre-pro isn't new, but I have read some very positive reviews about it. I am seriously considering purchasing this unit, but need some input from you fellow AVS forum members. First off, what do you all think of this pre-pro? Is it as good as it seems to be? Some of the...

I own a Sunfire TGIII, but I am thinking of replacing it with either a Parasound Halo C2 or an Anthem AVM20. Which one do you all think would be the better choice? Main importance is sound quality for music and movies. Another important issue is ease of use. I noticed that the Halo C2 uses...

I just purchased a Pioneer DVL-919 Laserdisc Player, and I need an RF-Demodulator. I'm also interested in buying DTS Laserdiscs. I would also be willing to trade some DVD's for an RF-Demodulator, or laserdiscs. The DVD titles I have are as follows: __________________________ 1. 12...

The reason i'm asking is that I see a lot of posts about the Anthem AVM20, and B&K Ref50, but not very many about the Sunfire TGIII. I feel that there should be an ongoing thread for TGIII owners as well. A place that we can share opinions,problems and solutions, tips and tweaks, info on new...

I will soon be upgrading to separates and want to use XLR cables. I've looked at many different brands including Ultralink, Blue Jeans Cables, Wicked Cables, and Signal Cables. All the cables mentioned seem to be of very high quality, so deciding between them all has been difficult. I've...

Right now I am using a Denon AVR 5800 receiver as a pre/pro, and I have it connected to a Sunfire Cinema Grand Signature series II amp. I have a chance to get a Sunfire Theater Grand III pre/pro. My question is should I continue using my Denon as a pre/pro, or should I go the true separates...

I recently purchased a Sunfire Cinema Grand Signature series II for$2,395. I'm very happy with the sound quality that this 5 channel amp provides, it works great with my Martin Logan setup. As a new owner of this amp, i'm not all that familiar with it. On the back right side of the Sunfire it...

I found a pair of Martin Logan Aerius i's at a local Hi Fi store that were in excellent condition. They were a display/demo pair that they never sold. I have read good reviews on these electrostats. What would be a good price to pay for these speakers? Also, since these speakers are rated at 4...

Does anyone have any info on either the YAMAHA DVD-S2300 or ONKYO DV-SP800. I'm looking in to buying one or the other,but need help with my decision. What are your thought's and opinions on these two players?
