Don't know if that's a contradiction in terms, but here goes. I have an old Denon DP35-F turntable I bought about 20 years ago and a stack of LPs. I'd like to record my LPs to WAV format to store on my computer and burn to CDs. My current receiver doesn't have phono inputs, so I need to get a...

I'm a total newbie to the home theater hobby, so please bear with me. I recently completed my HT buying spree and decided on some cables from BlueJeans Cables for my interconnects. When order the subwoofer and digital coax cables, I ordered lengths about twice what I thought I'd need (I wound...

Just wanted to chime in that I'm part of the club as well. I got my 25-31PCi on Tuesday. When I took it out of the box, my first reaction was "woah, this thing is big". I can't imagine waht a 16-49 would look like. I got it hooked up but haven't had time to calibrate it or even try it out...

I don't want to add to the various debates on if cables make a difference, but this question relates to the quality of the connector on S-Video cables. When I first got my DVD player, I bought an AR Pro S-Video cable (6 ft length), which worked fine for me. Recently, I was rearranging my HT...

I just got my ticket as well, on 6/5. I mailed my rebate form in on 4/24, so it took 6 weeks or so to get it.

It has 3 sets of composite inputs on the back, but only one S-Video input. The TV is a Sony KV-27V42 27" model. However, I unplugged my S-Video cable from my DVD player and plugged it into the receiver and it still doesn't work. This works fine w/DVD player, so apparently it just doesn't...

I just got my Marantz SR6300 and have been setting it up when I came across an (apparent) problem with getting to OSD to display on my television. Currently, I have my DVD player connected to my TV's only S-Video connection, so I've been trying to get the OSD to appear using the RCA monitor out...

Thanks for the input Chu. For a non-EE type like me, all this talk about square vs. sine wave, shunt, grounds, PSCs, etc makes my head spin. Are you aware of any independent reviews/comparisons? If you read Zero Surge's web site, you'd think you'd be a fool to go with any other type of surge...

Has anyone had any experience with Zero Surge surge supressors? I read about this company years ago and remember a review or two that stated their method of surge supression was the way to go, but haven't seen anything here. I've read a posting or two from an EE at Sutton that dissed them, but I...

I'm looking for some mains and center to build up a home theater system. I've been listening to Paradigms Mini Monitors, but decided to go to a different dealer and give the B&W 601 and the NHT SB2 a try. I was very impressed by the B&Ws; excellent imaging and there seemed to be a clarity that...

I'm in the beginning stages of assembling a home theater setup. My plan is to replace my old NAD stereo receiver with a Marantz 4300/5300 A/V receiver, then get the L/R fronts and ceenter, the rears, and finally the subwoofer. My short list of speakers is as follows: Paradigm Titans/Focus...
