Simply a great movie about how people act when their better nature is given free reign.

Go to apple trailers for a butchers. Very pretty in 3D I'm sure. Let's hope its more Terminator / Alien 2 from Cameron as opposed to Titanic.At the very least it looks like a fun IMAX xmas popcorn movie.

Because Naim doesn't seem to launch any scaler upgrade I am going to buy an external upscaler.It would be Lumagen VisionPro HDP (it has an SDI input if ever one day Naim decides to integrate that option on the DVD5 ?)I already own 5 really great BNC...

I have recently acquired an AV2 processor and already have a DVD5. I intend to use my existing system for the front but also intend to go active so will eventually have 3 NAP 250's driving NBL's via a NAC 52, SuperCap and SNAXO 3-6 & SuperCap. What do you recommend for the additional speakers and amplification I would much prefer to stick to Naim products. Would a NAP 135 for the centre speaker and a NAP 250 for the rear ones plus an active sub be a good balance? Or would a NAP V145 and a...

I know Naim is famed for its interconnectivity and upgradability but I was just wondering how feasible it was to pair an N-Vi with a Nait XS. I have an N-Vi and have heard very good things about the XS. I'd want the N-Vi to power the centre and rears...

Hi all,I've realised recently that EVERYTHING is becoming on-line and downloadable. This is music, movies (low-res and hi-res). I own all the latest gadgets myself, but my conclusion is this:Download in high resolution and watch/listen. That is the...

Does the DVD5 play both PAL & NTSC? Are they constrained by region codes depending on where it was bought?

Any of you into their Bluray have any opinions and experiences on this ?I know there's a good amount of titles released by the studios un-coded, but on those that are region coded is there anything technically different about them, apart from having...

Hi guys;I've had a DaLite pull down projector screen for about a year now and I've noticed that it started to warp/ripple. The deformity is mild at the current time and doesn't interfere with my viewing pleasure much. I guess that this will worsen...
