| Can Anyone Please Walk Me Through This? Perhaps I'm dense, but I'm not twigging here on the issue... Why not just rip to WAV files using EAC and transfer those to the iPod if you are that worried about audio quality, or is the issue there that WAV files don't have ID tags and therefore ... | |

| Digital Cable Vs satelite Eh, sadly, at this stage, on demand is SD only. I expect the DVR HD boxes relatively soon--I'm in Northern Virginia and they have launched in DC. Given the content available in HD, being able to timeshift would be nice indeed.HRcapers, DirecTV doe... | |
| Digital Cable Vs satelite AVGuy is right--there is no universal answer here. I've actually used both DirecTV and digital CATV, and am now a digital CATV subscriber, but what works for me may not work for you. Here are some factors to consider:1. Picture Quality. For CATV, ... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Aw Plato, now why d'ja hafta bring my mother into it?I ride for me exclusively. I ride to make my muscles hurt and my lungs burn. I ride because sweating seems to be the only way of eliminating toxins that accumulate from life in a big city. I rid... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Jdr999, just up the pressure in the shock! ; )I'm probably 190, although I'd like to believe 180, and haven't had a spot of trouble. Although riding today, I decided I definitely needed to lube the joints... You could hear me creaking a 1/2 mi. aw... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session Y'all can keep your effete road bikes... Rides smoothly over rough pavement? He he. How about over a 6' drop onto gnarled tree roots? Me, I'll second the Truth! A sub-25 lb. bike with almost 5" of front and rear travel, climbs like you are cheatin... | |
| Favourite Guitar CDs In the vein of albums not yet noted, I'll nominate Bob Mould, specifically in his Sugar incarnation and the _Copper Blue_ album. Turn it up loud and be overwhelmed and awed at what can come from a single guitar.Although its probably showing my age... | |
| Question about 12v trigger on Denon 3803 Also make sure you are using mini *mono* plugs, not mini stereo plugs... Rat Shack sells both kinds. | |
| What makes your Home Theater system What makes my HT special?I'm not into sharing armrests. And, I get to pause the film when I need a bathroom break. Oh yeah, my chair is much more comfortable than the fake velvet fold down chair in the theater with the gum and nachos stains on it.... | |
| Digital Direct TV vs HD via Cable This is pre-actual ownership to see if you can get it. You get on your roof with the compass, you figure out the direction of the satellite, you use the level and the protractor to figure azimuth, lining the straw up on the protractor, and then yo... | |
| Digital Direct TV vs HD via Cable You are right about all the video sat services being in geosync orbit over the equator, but... The difference in elevation angle relates to which equatorial slot the licensee has. If the satellite is longitudinally equatorial, but latitudinally co... | |
| Digital Direct TV vs HD via Cable Hey Tom, I had both at the same time too, and now I have only one. And its not DirecTV. It all depends on your signal quality--I had SAT A, B, and C in the high 80s to high 90s and I still get better PQ from Comcast. YMMV.OTA is free, and that is ... | |
| Converting toslink output to coax The most useful reference seemed to be:"The signal at (used to drive) the toslink is the same signal as used for the coax out. So, find an old unit (Cd player) that has a coax out and remove it's tramsformer. Or you can use resistors to scale a 75... | |
| Help with inverted phase Newbie Question If you invert twice, you are in phase. Inverted phase is 180 degrees out of phase. Invert again, you are 360 degrees out of phase, which is really 0 degrees out of phase, which means you aren't out of phase. If that makes sense. |
