Hi All. If you go to the DVDBeaver site, you'll see a letter from Gary about how he's been losing money and asking again for folks to support him via Patreon or PayPal. It seems like he's close to shutting down. Although I rarely use the site anymore, and really don't buy many discs anymore...

After seeing the excellent documentary about the Hitchcock/Truffaut sessions a couple of months back, I bought the book, and have been reading through it occasionally. Today I came across something very interesting. Here is the exchange on page 222 of the latest paperback edition: "F.T. Both...

...I'm hoping that title gets your interest. In the middle of the night, my wife and I were awakened by the sub (the lowly JBL PB10). It was thumping in an arrhythmic manner. I unplugged it and went back to sleep. This morning, I plugged it back in again, and, so far, no thumping. The...

I'd like to publicly acknowledge Universal Studios Home Entertainment for a recent example of exemplary customer service. I bought the LE of To Kill a Mockingbird before last Xmas, but just opened it and watched it last month. I noticed the collectible cards were missing. I wrote USHE an...

Greetings, all. I don't intend to bad-mouth Boston Acoustics with this post. I am sincerely just looking for feedback on Boston quality. I had Bostons installed about 2.5 years ago. I don't remember the model numbers (I think they're the most basic in the FX or NX lines) but can look them up...

Here I am again w/ silly questions about my new receiver. I just tried headphones w/ it for the first time the other night. I always use the 7.1 inputs when listening to SACDs, even 2CH ones. On my previous Sony receiver, I didn't have a Direct option on the other inputs, and I found that...

Greetings. My old Sony STR-DE545 output sound to the sub along w/ the other channels for Dolby PL. My new Marantz SR7400 doesn't output to the sub for PL II. Speakers are set to Large on both receivers. I prefer PL II; the clarity and dimensionality is much better than old PL. However, I'd...

So, I was in the local new-used store today, and saw the Eno remasters. My favorite is Green World, but due to the reported problem, I'm holding off on that one. I picked up Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy). It's in a gatefold digipak, but slides into a hard plastic shell. I guess this...

In the 60s, I remember seeing a show from an anthology series. It involved a small, insular town. The people gradually discovered they couldn't leave the borders of the town. At the end, it was discovered that the entire town had been lifted from earth by aliens & placed on another planet. The...

Orange alert! I've had the BBC individual boxes since they were released, and love them. However, now that some series are being released in nice digipaks, I keep looking at the 5 Prisoner boxes on my shelf & thinking it would be nice to put the whole set in a single small box. To do so...

We had two friends over during the holidays. I had given my wife the SACD of Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On (one of her favorite discs growing up). We first listened to the MCH. My wife then wanted to hear the title song from Gaye's CD box set of a few years back. So, I played the 2CH of it...

I just received the hybrid SACD from amazon.fr. The 5th page of the booklet is white w/ black text. It should be a listing of track numbers, titles, and times. On my copy, there's a column for track numbers, and a column for times, but the middle column for titles is blank. Has anyone else...
