As someone that cringes at the amount of compression applied by the local cable company to HD signals, I'm not sure how I'll respond to the amount of compression Youtube will apply to its "1080p" stream.
I'm not sure where the balance between res...
What would they possibly fill the back panel with then? Vast expanses of empty sheet metal. Maybe some DL DVI and DisplayPorts....
What jj said was correct because in theater's there is a delay of 100ms where as in our house it is standard 40ms . so j. yang u really dont have to worry about that just enjoy the sound in ur home.....
So does that mean JJ is arguing more for a DD EX solution over a discrete 6.1/7.1? Or more currently DD IIz / Audyssey DSX.
Even though the commercial theater may be 5.1 and the BD is 5.1, it will still sound different because the commercial theater uses so many surround speakers, and you are hearing the sound from the one nearest to where you are sitting, plus the sou...

Post your review of a new movie that has just starting playing at your local theater.
On the heels of JJ's latest post on vinyl and his brief addendum on DACs. It's a bit curious that many audiophiles have difficulty believing appropriate sample rate selection with supporting math could reproduce the original waveform. The same gro...
Discuss your experiences with Digital Analog Converters (DAC). Express your frustration and enthusiasm, let others know which Digital Analog Converters work best.
No new materials from Stewart? I thought they might have worked on reducing the structure a bit. I really enjoy my Stewart Firehawk, but was a bit envious after demoing the SI Black Diamond II.
My biggest beef lately with theaters has been the amount of dust/scratches on the prints. I suppose it was the reverse situation when I started watching BD at home where it was almost surreal in terms of how clean the picture was.
