  1. beautiful... jealous here. I love the bread boards to, perhaps someday I can afford something like that
  2. Thabks Schu - can you expand on this - i checked my settings menu and there is no such option on mine all there is a whole lot of technical stuff that the average person will have no idea what they are on about, i am in this category.. re many opts on 2ch like 2ch48khz or something like that, then all this stuff about bitrate,, they need a book for ps3 settings for dummies.. there is nothing on my ps3 that you described and i just downloaded the latest software, hope you know what i mean.. well here is a short SIMPLIFIED explaination about bit depth and sampling rate. think of a graph that is plotted with x and y axis... horiztonal and vertical lines... # The horizontal lines represent bit depth: _ _ _ _ The vertical lines represent Sampling rate: I I I I I I I I there for a source(sacd,dvda , etc) that is availible in high resolution may be a 24/192... that is 24 bits of depth(resolution) and 192 lines of speed(the fractions in time that a 24bit sample is taken) the deeper the bit depth and the faster something is sampled, the higher the resolution of the sample.
  3. Can anyone give me a little info on my Hereseys please? year/generation/finsh/crossove/speakers etc... I appreciate it, I know I could serach but I am sure some of you know as soon as you see them
  4. IC... sorry about that. by nature the hybrids are the units you want more so than the single layer sacd's... hybrids, as I am sure you know are two layers with two distinct playbacks...5.1 and 2.1 All I can tell you for sure is that I play BOTH types on my ps3 and I do it throug 2 channel setup and it sound wonderful. I think it would probably sound even better in 5.1 though
  5. I get all mine on: ebay ebay international amazon amazon international those over seas folks get more stuff than us... give a listen to DVDA, HDAD, MFS, and Masterdisc
  6. I don't have ANY issues with my ps3, whether cd dvd sacd dvda etc... the unit plays it all and plays it well. I am going HDMI to a integrated 130wpc and running it all two channel through Hereseys. I must say the difference between sacd's/dvda's/mfsl's and regular cd's is quite apparent, like night and day. You have to remember that there are different ps3 units even for the same model(80gb etc) , some generations play sacd/dvda and some don't...dont ask me why but that's the way it is. In the set up menu there are options for out put 2 channel,5.1, 7.1 sampling rates etc 1
  7. Rosewood belongs on my Martins guitars... but good buy anyway[]
  8. If you ever wanted to tes out the effectiveness and strength of your mids and high horns... try playing The Bulgarian State Woman's Choir Le Mystere will ansolutely give those things a work out and you will know immediately if they are weak
  9. wonderous... thanks for the help. I love old timey music and these records have not been played in a generation.I look forward to the experience... mono or not
  10. Awesome thanks... now only to find a TT that spins at 78rpms
  11. I guess thats what I am asking for, does anyone make a 78 speed TT? I have hundreds of these 78's that have been in my family since my Grand father. I am really want to experience these old jazz blues records
  12. I have planned to get a new turntable to add to my system... I was thinking about a Technics Mk5 sl1200... but here is the issue, I want to be able to play 78's... Can anyone help me out with a MODERATELY priced TT that would accomplish both 33 and 78 rpm records? PS... what are Half Speed reference/master records?
  13. By Genre first... then by artist in alphabetical order
  14. so then with pre outs it goes... player, integrated input, integrated preout to external amp input, then speakers?
  15. I use my PS3 to play my cd's dvda's and sacd's... but i am getting a dedicated sacd player... onkyo sp506 with the lastest DACs. Onkyo also has a great cd only player, the dx7555
  16. LOL... it was a good one. guy was clinging to the back of a semi at 70-80mph... Highights http://www.woodtv.com/dpp/news/strange/offbeat_ap_atlanta_man_clings_to_truck_during_police_chase_200904281539_2353484 Another one of the end... http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=ed797acb-3a52-4015-95f0-0fff195da36b LOL at the Atlanta Police dog... a Golden Retriever
  17. I am still a little confused by the addition of a Subwoofer(or two subwoofers) as they pertain to playback of audio. In conversation, some people have said they would NOT add a sub for music, and some folks add two(left right)... is this a personal preference or is this a setup issue in making sure that the subs do not over power the main l/r klipsch speakers. I was thinking about adding a pair of 10" subs to add some low end on my heresey fronts, but if its a waste of money for audio then I will forgo that addition thanks
  18. You know... I seem to be one of the only guys here that wants his cake and eat it to. I have come to learn that volume is a key factor in listening quality in that having to much can hurt your listening experience, but I come from the 60's/70's and I want my ears to bleed with both volume and crystal clarity. I think feeling the music concussion is part of the experience
  19. does this meet your criteria? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882115196&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-Receivers-_-Yamaha-_-82115196 it's on sale for another two days
