Thank you macdiddy, Thats perfect, thanks very much :)

DVD. I'm not sure if the bluray was on the list on the THX website, but the SD version was, which I presumed meant DVD.

No, its not is special features - I guess i was hoping that someone with this dvd had found and used it - failing that, if they own a different dvd with it on, to suggest it and where on the disc it is. Thanks for taking the time to reply though - i do appreciate it.

There isn't a settings menu - Special Features, Chapter Selection, Language Selection and Play Movie - I've been through the lot :(

Hi, Can someone please put me out of my misery? I have just bought a 55" Panasonic VT and I wanted to calibrate the picture. So I read a few forum posts on here, went on the THX website - saw that the Alien DVD was on the list as having the optimiser - went to HMV, bought it, but I damned if I...

Thank you very much for taking the time to post your comments. In my original post i meant to put there 'isn't' much chance to audition stuff locally, though I think there is a Richer Sounds in Nottingham, which isn't too far. As a result, it's true that i am just going on reviews, not just...

Hi, I want to get a decent (by my standards at least) CD player system for my back room. I have a budget of about £1000 and have pretty much set my heart on the Marrantz 6005 CD player and PM6005 Integrated Amp - but I'm not sure whether to go with the Q Accoustics 2050i (because the paino...

Just clicked BigBoss' link, obviously my post above is irrelevant because they are outside of the EU - doh!

I can't comment on the partnering kit, or Simply Electronics, but I think that under EU law, consumer electronics have to come with a minimum of 2 years guarantee now, and have done for several years. This link to an AV Forum has an interesting article from the Guardian posted about half way...

You will definataly notice a huge difference. I have a Panasonic DMP-BDT210 which is a great bluray player IMHO, and is well within your £200 budget. I can't say i have timed it, but it goes from off to ready to play a lot quicker than the popcorn takes in the microwave (2 minutes). And if...

thank you for your help :)

thanks - I need to correct my earlier info, it is a 309 amp, so probably just the single sub out. he has just emailed me a picture of the back of the sub. You have your hi level inputs L and R/mono, and your low level inputs, again, L and R/mono. I presume just a straight forward connection from...

Oh I get you now, he is refering to the sub conection when he is talking about the double phono

Hi, Both are new really, but he did buy a Boston Accoustics 5.1 system originally for it, but it was faulty, so he returned it. It is only the entry level amp i think, the SR608 i think. Thanks

Hi, My brother in law is having trouble working out how to wire up his Canton Sub to his Onkyo Amp. I am going over at the weekend to help him set the system up, as I have had some experience versus his nil. But this is what he said in his email to me - '... but connecting the amp to the sub...
