    Anyone own a Panasonic UB9000P1k ?

    Curious to know if anyone has this player and would care to comment on it's audio quality using the XLR out. Don't care if it can't play SACDs or DVD-As. Thank you.

    Desoldering Tool

    I own a McIntosh MC7205. It uses incandescent #7373 lamps. These lamps keep going out so I'm going to replace them all with LED lamps. There are 9 for the 3 meters. I've done the replacing of several bulbs over the time I've owned this amp and used solder wick, which is ok but hit and miss. So...

    Strange red banner has started to appear

    This is a recent thing. I now see a red banner in the area where you type. In the past it's always been clear. Curious if anyone else has noticed this. Example I captured is attached.

    Audiolab M-Dac+ owners/users

    Trying to get as much information as possible with respects to dacs. I don't do streaming and I doubt I ever will. So the sources will be either a standard cd player or a Blu-ray disc player. This dac has my interest. There are so many dacs out there which makes it awfully hard to pick one...

    Vin Scully passed away yesterday

    His passing hits hard. By far, the best baseball announcer ever. By all accounts, he was a better person. Although I live in San Diego, we were able to listen to the Dodgers on the radio in the early 60's. I can't tell you how many times I fell asleep with an earplug in my ear plugged into a...

    Bengals Chiefs Game on 1-30

    Maybe it's me, but during the second half of Sunday's game, I got the strong feeling that the Chiefs threw the game. If you compare their game against the Bills the previous week and how they came back and won, yesterday's second half looked to be a give away.

    Plasma Owners?

    Anyone still have a plasma set as their main display? I had a Pioneer Elite Pro-111FD Kuro set, purchase new in '09 when Pioneer stated they were no longer making plasma sets and ended up selling it in late 2019. It was an excellent set, albeit with a problem on one board that was repaired. I...

    Windows Media Player not functioning with Windows 7 anymore

    Not sure if this is the right forum for my question. if not, please move it. My old pc is running on Windows 7. Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft. Up until just a few weeks ago, I was able to rip a few CDs which would land in My Music and also in WMP. I could then copy the album...

    4K Streaming Devices

    Between the Apple, Roku and Amazon Firestick 4K devices, which of the 3 are the better choice. Picked up the 4K Firestick at the discounted price but it seems limited somewhat in that it seems to be mostly Amazons content. Any personal experiences with all 3?

    Both LG and Sony have introduced smaller OLED TVs. LG touts their 48" CX line to be aimed at gamers. Sony's A9S hasn't had much press.

    Disney + Anyone Using it?

    It showed up as an APP on my Amazon Firestick. Using the Firestick, downloaded it and it states free for 7 days. Decided to sign on just to see what it had. Looked at a couple of Pixar movies that I've seen in the past on Blu-ray to see how it compares. The immediate issue is the audio. These...

    4K Content Streaming Sources

    I will be purchasing an OLED set fairly soon, leaning more towards the Sony A9G over the LG C9. I sold my Pioneer Elite Kuro to make way for 4K and would like to hear about what people are using as external streaming sources and how well they perform and look. I currently have an Amazon...

    Anyone attended a Dolby Cinema?

    Curious to hear from anyone who has been to a Dolby Cinema. They look impressive. The picture is supposed to be outstanding as it uses a laser for the light source. If anyone has been to the AMC Mission Valley theater, please chime in.

    Outlaw Audio has just listed this new pre/pro on their website. At $900, it is quite a bit cheaper that other current pre's. No Dolby Atmos. They supposedly have another product to include this at some future date. http://www.outlawaudio.com/products/976.html

    Any Anthem Owners?

    Looking for anyone who owns Anthem Audio units that would care to comment on the sound signature and reliability. Any bugs that have been problems. I might want to try their bottom of the line receiver, the MRX 520. Since I have no intent of going with more speakers, basic 5.1/5.2 is perfect. I...
