Whilst using 5.1 & 7.1 I am experiencing pops,clicks etc, with both Sky HD & DVD Acram but not when using Stereo etc at first I thought it was the HD box! could it be a cable problem? The HD box is connected via Optical & the DVD Coaxial. Or is the Amp on the way out?

Any ideas why the display on my N-vi keeps coming on for no reason, or this just another fault to put on the list of failures with them

I need to put 2 HDMI inputs (blu Ray player and sky box)into a switcher to feed one output. Does anyone use one? Does the unit have to be powered from the wall or not? Are there obvious quality issues to look out for or are these switches pretty much...

I have a 43" pioneer plasma in my TV room. Currently it is playing using the speakers that come with the tv. Is it feasible to buy a cheap, decent quality all in one system (let`s say under $1000)? Something fairly discreet. Something that will...

Hello AV people,Are there any Kuro users out there (500A or 600A) who are using a longer than standard length system cable between the monitor and media box...?If so, are you using Pioneer's own KRP-CA01 or did you explore using something else, such...

I've been enjoying the FreeSat reception from the Humax FoxSAT-HDR for a few months now (the HDR almost makes the Pioneer DVR redundant!) but a couple of things bother me.(1) I have a dual feed from the satellite dish (to LNB 1 and 2 in) with a feed...

Just finished it on DVD. Slightly disappointed. Acting was good but nothing special. Nice effects on the explosions. No twists in the plot. No suspence. No depth to make the movie dramatic. At the end, I failed to come out with a message.The depiction...

Hi guys, Just wondering, those of you using n-SATS as rears/surrounds, what heights do you have them set at...? Dolby & DTS info seems to simply suggest 'a height' above ear level but no real guidance to 'how much' above.... In my last place I previously had non Naim (B&W)satellites mounted towards the ceiling and understand this is the general guide but I was just wondering what anyone has found with the n-SATS ?....I have a spare set of n-STANDS so I do have the option of them going on the...

James N suggested that now I'm not using the pre- or power amp in the N-vi (new 282), I should turn off the front amp in the n-vi as it would improve performance. However, I've been shuffling through the menu and can't find this as an option. Tried...

Can anyone talk me through setting up my TV via the N-vi so I can get it through the speakers.Not being particularly technical, I find the n-vi instruction manual really unhelpful and though far from stupid!! (ok.. so that's my opinion) I am at a loss...
