    Denon 5900 DVD and 3805 Receiver I-Link connection?

    I recently bought a Denon 3805 receiver for my 2nd HT. Currently the 5900 DVD is in the primary HT using multi-channel analog for SACD/DVD-A. I have cat5e cables going between the 2 rooms and I thought I'd give this I-Link a try by hooking up a Cat5 wire between the receiver and DVD 5900...

    ATI All-In-Wonder 500DV AGP Video Card

    *** Opps, I meant 8500DV, not 500DV *** I was going to use this ATI card in my older PC but I freed up AIW 9700 from my other PC so this one is a spare. I'm asking $100 Canadian for it and if anyone is into games, I can send you all the games included in the 9700 AIW as well. I have all...

    Stacking amps, any danger?

    Okay, I finally got the Aragon 8008 MKII from my dealer to test drive for my MartinLogan Aeon speakers. I currently have Aragon 2005 and I'm hoping to get better sound with the 8008 MKII driving the mains only. The big problem is the amp is 19" wide which won't fit in my rack. My rack is only...

    Xantech 791-44 not firing IR on the emitters

    I just got one of these Xantech 791-44 expansion block and I don't think it's working. It's receiving signals as I can see the red LED is blinking whenever I press a button on the Marantz RC9200 remote (I'm using the RF to IR module from Marantz). However, on the dual emitters, none of them...

    Fine-tuning a sub-woofer

    I'm trying to fine tune my MartinLogan Descent sub to blend in with the system: Aeon as fronts Cinema as center Scripts as surround And of course a Descent Primare SP31.7 Processor I have a radio shack analog meter and I've set up the levels through the processor's pink noise and they...

    Small LCD for previewing video in HT

    I think it's more appropriate to post here since I can only think of car LCD panels are generally small in size - about 7" or so. I have a HT set up in the house and I've always wanted to get a small LCD mounted somewhere to preview video/processor setup/timer recording for PVR, etc. I...

    Audio Refinement Pre-2DSP

    I was wondering what do you guys think of this processor? From the price point, it's excellent. I can get a demo sale for $1500 Canadian. I know it doesn't have much features but I wonder how it sounds? One thing I have in question is the DPL II upgrade? It mentions the chip can be upgraded...

    AR Master Audio Cables for multi-channel

    Another cable question. I had some audio cables which were too short (1 meter), now I'm looking for some new 2 meter cables but I'm not sure if the standard AR cable would do the job or I should go for the Master series. Thanks, Simon

    RS232 custom control, what software do I need?

    My processor has a RS232 port in the back for custom control, the DVD changer I'm looking for (Sony DVP-777ES) also has a RS232 port. The question is what software do I need to control the devices? Thanks, Simon

    Universal CD/DVD Player

    I'm currently using a CD Changer for music listening and I've been thinking of getting a single disc player. However, I'm not sure if I should pick up a universal player such as Lexicon RT-10? So far I'm interested in the Primare D30.2 as I just upgraded my pre/pro to Primare P31.7. What do...

    Calibrate speakers based on tones from processor or AVIA?

    I wonder which one would be more accurate. I do like the AVIA subwoofer calibration though but it usually makes me mad because I can never get them all well-balanced. Also, the processor I have - Primare P31.7 has a mic input so it can calibrate on its own, however, I don't know what type of...

    Which processor would you pick for $3000US

    I'm from Canada but the majority of the members are from US so I'd set my budget to US $3000. So far, 2 came to my mind would be Anthem AVM20 2.0 and Classe SSP-30MKII. For another $1000 or so, I have more selections such as Aragon Stage One, Primare SP31.7 and Classe SSP-60. I'm sure these...

    Mini-LCD panel (6" to 8") for HT

    I've seen some new processors have built-in LCDs for previewing stuff, I'd like to know if I can get a standalone for HT. Actually the ones made for cars would be nice. However, I'm not familar with car audio so I'm not sure if they have standard video inputs and power. I've seen some LCD TVs...

    Power consumption for HT

    I've received my "Kill A Watt" from SmartHome today and I'm surprised how little my HT is drawing through the Panamax 5300. I have absolutely everything plugged into the Panamax including all HT related wall-warts. Durning moderate volume (what I feel comfortable), it's drawing about 3.9 Amp -...

    Long computer type Power Cord for Subwoofer

    I recently bought a Panamax 5300 and because of cable length for the subwoofer, I have to hook up the sub to different outlet. I was wondering if there's a place I can buy long power cord about 20'? I have a MartinLogan Descent and it uses the same type of power cable as PC. Any help is much...

    Panamax 5300 or 5500?

    I bought a Panamax 5300 yesterday and I haven't had a chance to hook it up yet. I'll need to fix the cable mess first. Anyway, I was wondering if the 5500 is worth the extra money? Thanks, Simon

    Kenwood 5900 DVD Changer vs. Sony DVP-875?

    I currently have a Sony DVP-850 and a Panasonic RP82. The Sony is filling up and I'm hoping to sell it then get a new changer (300/400 discs). Which one do you recommend? I'm using SLinke and DVD Lobby to control 850 so I don't use the Disc Explorer at all. I assume with the Kenwood, I should...

    Automate Aragon 2005 5-ch amp on/off

    I bought an Aragon 2005 power amp few months back to mate with my MartinLogan setup. I like the amp a lot but I'd like to automate the on/off through the pre/pro. I have a Sony TAE9000ES and before I got the Aragon, I was using the TAN9000ES which had a SLink cable to the pre/pro for power...

    TAE9000ES too bright, would EQ help?

    I haven't been playing around with the EQ built-in to TAE9000ES, but I found the 9000ES too bright for my taste for 2-ch music. I have no experience in adjusting EQ so I don't know where to start. I can understand the final adjustments would be depending on the room but I'd like some pointers...

    Upgrade from TAE-9000ES to DA4ES as pre/pro?

    I wonder if this is a good route to go from the TAE-9000ES to DA4ES as pre/pro? The DA4ES seems to be highly rated and the price is way cheaper than Anthem AVM20. I was thinking of the AVM20 for the replacement of 9000ES. The 9000ES is rather old, no 5.1 analog in, no DTS Neo6 and DPLII. I...
