Avia and Video Essentials Question (1 Viewer)

[Howard_S]

Hi I've been looking at getting at least one of these disks for some time now. So far, I've only found the VE disk locally. Should I buy now or wait for the new version. I don't have a progressive scan tv and the new disk is suppose to have more progressive scan functions right. So should I buy now?

As for Avia. Anyone know where I get the best prices and have it shipped to Vancouver, Canada?

You can get Avia at DVD Planet. I am waiting on the Home Theater Tune-Up by Sound & Vision and Ovation. You can check out HT Tune-Up at Sound & Vision's web site.

HTT should be shipping by early Jan. I don't think we'll have fast enough turn around at the plants to ship in time for Christmas.

>Home Theater Tune-Up by Sound & Vision <

this is got a great price on it, $20. Does anyone know if it will include everthing that is on Avia?

Thanks Bob

How 'bout Video Essentials? Should I buy now or wait for the new version considering the fact I don't have a progressive scan tv?

Are there any Canadian dealers for AVIA? If not how much would shipping cost to Vancouver, Canada be if I buy from Ovation or Dvdplanet?

 

[Matthew Anderson]

Howard,

Just go to DVD Planet's web site and go to the help section and then to shipping. It will give you the price for shipments to Canada.

Howard I was also looking for a Canadian source for AVIA...no luck. If you go to DVDExpress.com you can get this for around 39 buck US with a $2.49 shipping charge to Canada. This is about $67 CDN. If you want to try Video Essentials you can go to http://www.pricegrabber.com and get a used version for about 15 bucks US and $3.50 shipping (about 30 cdn). I have been thinking about this... I was able to find this same DVD at A&B sound for 70 bucks
the used version will take some of the pain away ... when the newversion comes out

Hi Howard,

You can get a copy of Avia at any Future Shop or A&B Sound.

Seymour A&B have copies I'm sure.

I went to Broadway Futureshop and they didn't have it. :frowning:
Never mind. I can special order form A&B. Thanks for pointing me towards the right direction.

Just went to Futureshop today and they said they haven't carried it for a few months now.

 

[Howard_S]

I ended up ordering it online. Thanks guys.

Is the "Home Theater Tune-Up by Sound & Vision" made by the same people who make Avia? What are the differences between the two? Sound & Vision is less than half the price of Avia.

I just ordered the Home Theater Tune-Up from DVDplanet for like 16 bucks shipped. Should be as good as Avia. The software is made by Ovation, the same company that did the Avia DVD.
