[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ should be, could be, maybe - copied bluray discs don't play on all players, that's why I buy originals - they last longer too

[X_Factor]

i jus look at a movie once and most of the time i give it away after

hunger games is a nice one to look at, nice visuals and really good audio

50/50 lol


but i did gt the oppo for better video processing and if i had to play burnt movies ..wouldnt hv a problem either...i buy originals movies only when im away...i cant justify to myself paying 250 for a movie locally and watching it once..20us is ok

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ agreed.

The Oppo really is a fantastic player. Super Audio CDs and HD Audio is another great reason to own an Oppo.

they only carry def tech and mirage...klipsch own these companies..i prefer svs, velodyne or paradigm...think sound n security in valpark has sunfire which is rated high..but they have amp problems from reviews that i have read

[X_Factor]

SVS13 ultra probably 13k+ landed
sunfire atmos 15k+ landed
others may start atleast 6k landed

you can look into the dayton titanic line

but, if u have the space about 7cubes, a DIY 15" with amp may cost around 6K and keep up to almost any other in the market

i looking for a mid end sub....my theatre room is only 13 x 13...those more powerful sub would be an overkill

svs pb1000 looks good...i think ill hv to order one on amazon

[crazybalhead]

Go on the paradigm website, the local dealer is there and the prices are EXCELLENT. Landed will be close to US list price.

I would assume there would be some amount of data lost during ripping/compression, not so? But is it by a substantial amount to make a difference to the human ear and eye. My personal preference is just to purchase originals while abroad also but mainly collectors editions.

saw this in the classifies, excellent price/buy for someone

[dredman1]

Anyone know where I can find any of these 2 items locally? I know it's "old school" compared to more recent technology , but I'm trying to get piece of old school equipment to work

3.5mm Male to 2x RCA Female

Radio Shack will surely have those. Also try places like Balroops, Gopauls Electronics etc.

You can also get them on Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Female-3-5mm-Ster ... B000I23TTO
http://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-40645- ... 000J1H4VI/

skybox and get it in a few days

[dredman1]

Thanks Duane - will try RS.
Saw them on Amazon, but looking to get it by Mon or Tues. They will be the last resort.

[X_Factor]

shams
steves
etc
i dont think thats a hard to find adapter
but in terms of quality might not be all that compared to whats available off amazon

[pioneer]

Radioshack sells a decent quality inhouse brand called Auvio, if I remember right they have those items.

Edit - link

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... d=16055126

Might be about $150

I bought an ipod cable for $100 listed at $12.99USD

The price isn't bad, the quality is amazing.

[dredman1]

Forgot about Steve's and they around the corner from my work place.

Thanks for the links!

UPDATE: Got it at Steve's. Or at least a working solution, as they didn't have exactly what I was looking for.

3.5mm Male to 2X Male RCA, and a Female to Female RCA coupler

Thanks again.

Been eyeing some Auvio products in Radio Shack recently and was wondering about the quality...

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ I switched my RCA composite cables for the FLOW digital cable box from the crappy generic ones to the AUVIO gold plated and it made a HUGE difference in picture and sound quality. I'm using the Pioneer Elite VSX-23TXH to upscale to 1080p to the TV and BBC and NatGeo look almost like HD.

[X_Factor]

Auvio is good stuff!!

[Rallyfignis]

I'll buy the cables and try them out!
