    Get me up to speed

    It does indeed help, Thank you so very much glacialpath, most interesting. Yes, I knew about the PAL version being less in the way of video reslution, but the amount of space they saved for the DTS was substantial! I did not know that BD still had the same trends re other reigions having more...

    Get me up to speed

    When DVD players first came out, I hastily chipped mine and bought many region 1 discs for extra content and superior sound- (Saving private Ryan USA DTS anyone?) I will soon be upgrading and getting an amp which decodes HD dolby and DTS for blurays via a PS3. There are a myriad of settings on...

    New amp required after 15 years!

    Thanks for all replies on this thread guys, I really appreciate it. After looking, it is between the Denon 4000 and 4100. I may just bite the bullet and go for the 4100 if I'm gonna keep it for a good while. And its my 40th birthday in November, so why shouldn't i push the boat out, (or hint...

    What, They'd let you take it home/fetch it round? Really? I'd have to look for shops in the Northwest/Lancs though. I doubt that shop in Newcastle would be willing to travel so far

    That's a shame. No one can answer what I thought was a straightforward question? In case the above was too long I will provide a simple version. How does an AV receiver (VSX-909 RDS) approx 15 years old and costing £1200 compare to modern AV receivers? Can I get away with spending less these...

    Hi All, I was very keen in HiFi separates back in the day and still use much of my equipment in various rooms. I have a champagne coloured Pioneer VSX-909 RDS reciever in my main room that drives an M & K sub (incredible bass) and 5 surround Jamo speakers ( dunno the model without getting...
