I currently have a Arcam 139 connected to my AV2 but wish to add a HD DVD player.What would be the best connection for 5:1 sound.ThanksNeil

Currently SBL's Front and Centre IBL's as rear.Is it worth adding a rear pair? Because of the room (There's a spiral staircase at the rear in the middle so 6.1 is out) would it make much difference.I know there is little 6.1 or 7.1 stuff out there but...

I've recently acquired a pre-owned AV2 on the secondary market and, after some assistance by other forum members (thanks!) have now figured out how to properly connect it to my Nait5i using the Nait's "unity gain" feature. I've benefited greatly from...

Oh no!After 8 or so years our Loewe Xelos has gone pop.First a hissing noise, then the screen kept shrinking in a concave / bow tie shape.Finally it kept switching off - and then the inevitable burning smell. Appears dead!So - replace or repair?...

AV2 connected to Pioneer BR player via coax digital and to Apple Airport Express via Toslink.Very different gains between the two sources.When watching, for example, a DVD DD soundtrack, AV2 volume is typically at 75 - 80 whereas a volume level of 45...

I'm using the 140 for my stereo music and they suffice. However, when I'm using it for movies, they seem underpowered. Just don't have the ommph.. and it's not loud enough even at 0db levels.Most HT amps are rated 100 watts and above, typically 150...

Morning, all. I've just been looking at Ofcom's website and they seem to be suggesting at www.ofcom.org.uk/consult/condocs/dttfuture/ that we're all going to need a new set top box in order to enjoy HD on Freeview. It's only a consultation but Ofcom's...

I have been using the AV2 for a year now and had no problems at all until last week. Now I am getting no signal from Coaxial Digital input #1. All I get is just get no signal flash up and 3 flashing bars and no audio but if I put it in Coaxial Digital...

Hi there,Reading a bit more and people are seeming to suggest that going from a 5.1 analog output to a 5.1 analog input, the LFE channel would be reduced by 10db as part of the standard ?and that it should be in the procesor that could compensate for...

I guess the title says it all...! From AnandTech.com:"Pioneer showed off an impressive prototype 9mm thick 50" plasma at their booth at this year's CES. We've seen a lot of thin LCD and OLED displays on the show floor, but this plasma is very...

I want to uset he DAB/FM module of my n-vi, but cannot have any more wall sockets, cable runs or channeling to allow me to use an external or loft ariel! My dealer has suggested I try a D&M indoor DAB antenna, whish I have, but still no joy on DAB or FM. With DAB I get no signal, and FM between 6-18% on some channels, but not enough to get a station. Does anybody have any other suggestions, or am I not really going to be able to solve this one without a loft, or external ariel. Thanks in...
