Re: PCM vs. HD audio codecs
RR -
In theory, there should be no difference between PCM and the DTHD or DTSMA. I wonder if the problem is the ProLogic processing that the receiver is doing? I'm not 100% but isn't ProLogic...

Re: Kal's Home Theater & Bar! (Lots 'o pics)

Re: Turntable shopping.. any help?
Again, I hear you. I must admit to an abiding affection for my LP12 - It's been with me since I was 17, and has been lovingly maintained and upgraded every since, over the past 21 years. Aside from...

Re: Turntable shopping.. any help?
wes,
Sorry, you misread my response. The "<$400" and that entire post was for a record cleaning machine. I don't believe you can get a truly special vinyl experience for less than $1500 at the...

Re: First Blu-ray music album released!
I don't believe this is really the first Blu-Ray music album released. I think that Trent Reznor released a Nine Inch Nails instrumental album "Ghosts" on BRD. He released it as free lossy mp3, $5.00...

It works just fine with recordable Dual-layer DVD's. Never tried it w/ PAL formatted discs though. I would be surprised if it did not work, since Sony is (trying) to sell them in Europe. Why increase...
