grawk Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 yup Looks easy: Basically I just run my RCAs straight from the phono stage into the "breakout cable"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 do you have a mac, postjack? if not, the "provides connection and power from your Mac to Duet" doesn't sound promising. You'd want a mac for needledrops anyway. Get a cheap mini if you don't already have a mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chekhonte Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 So I finally broke down and bought the westinghouse 32" LCD HDTV. I really like it. It's about 450 dollars cheaper than the samsung with only subtle differences in image quality. You can tell if you scrutinize dark scenes in movies. Black is a little grey on this TV. I'm really glad I got it. I'm writing this post on it right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 I'd recommend checking out the vizio sets at costco etc too. I bought 2 vizio 37" displays this spring (during a woot off), and couldn't be happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My one complaint is that occasionally (I maybe notice it once a week) I see some minor ghosting. I think this is just a necessary evil when dealing with budget LCDs. The best way I found to adjust all the color/hue/brightness/saturation etc settings is to just look at the actor's skin. Adjust until the skin is lifelike. As for backlight, I wait for a scene that is inside a house or building, but with windows letting sunlight in. I adjust the backlight until the light is bright and lifelike, but not overbearing.

philodox Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Ok... anyways, speaking of google. I had a look at the TV's at costco and vizio is only available in the US. They have a Daytek one for a bit more with similar specs though... http://www.costco.ca/Browse/Product.aspx?Prodid=10291162&whse=BCCA&Ne=5000000+4000000&eCat=BCCA|79&N=4008767%205000014&Mo=7&No=2&Nr=P_CatalogName:BCCA&Ns=P_Price|1||P_SignDesc1〈=en-CA&Sp=C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chekhonte Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Yeah it can on the internet but my only credit card only goes up to 500 dollars. This was the best deal I could find locally. My reasoning for not getting a great LCD is that in four years when I'm looking for a new TV, LCD's will be miles better at around the same cost and the entry models now. I can live with a sub par TV for the next few years till then. Right now it's such a step up from my last TV that I've been on a 8 hour gears of war marathon just living it up!

Dusty Chalk Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Stereo version; mono version; and bonus tracks. [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Piper-at-Gates-Dawn/dp/tracks/B000T05R8Q/ref=dp_tracks_all_3/103-2678452-7779837]Amazon.com link[/ame] The best thing about it is the alternate versions of Interstellar Overdrive -- I have the French EP from which they're culled, and they are worth the price of admission alone. I don't have a preorder fairy -- I refuse to give him my credit card number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
