Does anybody possess a Mission MM7 mini system? If so, is it any good?

I've currently got a Technics SC-DV170 (http://www.lasyl.co.uk/SCDV170.htm) which is a combined 5 disc DVD player, tuner, Dolby Digital AMP, and tape player. It doesn't have any optical inputs, which I would like to use for my XBOX and Sky+. My query is, what am I best buying: 1) A new system like the lovely Panasonic SCDT310e

hello. I'd like to run a digital out from my DVD player to a DAC. How long can this cable be? I can use a coaxial or an optical. I was hoping it could run six metres. Is this way out or is this possible? Thanks

Description says "very little use" At least he's honest!

....Hello folks Creating video means dealing with the sound that comes with them and during my video editing process I usually export the audio and normalise it/apply compression (dynamic processing in CEP2) filters. Some loud audio, however, yields a cackling noise. Even when it's normalised, these louder parts of the track retain the crackle. I'm guessing it was captured/recorded as such as...

Anyone know why a bookshelf speaker needs a rear-facing driver? If you have any old LS3/5a's lying around, they make excellent centre or rear speakers in an HT setup. -- Roger.

If this has appeared twice apologies, my reader tells me it posted AOK yesterday but I can see no trace of it in any group yet. I have just acquired a Technics SH-400 CD-4 demodulator. I'm currently using it as a simple stereo phono preamp. Is there still any marketplace for this unit? Any idea of value? It seems pretty revered in it's day. I don't have any CD-4 setup so can't test...

I recently purchased the HAR-LH500 and installed the M-Crew software onto my laptop (HP Omnibook 900, Win2K. A wireless peer to my desktop) but......... If I run the s/w (Ver 2.6E) without the LH500 connected I get informed of the siuation. When I run the s/w with the LH500 connected by USB, I get a message to the effect 'Fatal Error - switch off (not to sure on the message). After this, if I...

Anyone know what's the flavour of the month for op amps? It's just for some buffers and equalizers to go before a power amp so tbh, a 741 would probably be as good as is required but there's nothing wrong with being trendy. :-) -- Roger.

I'm going to use a PC as the video and audio source in the kitchen. What are peoples thoughts on a good amplifier/speaker solution? The simplist thing would be to buy a PC speaker set but even the 'expensive' ones look too cheap to be any good - is there anything i've missed? Otherwise I've got a sony stereo amp i could hide away with the PC and drive from the PC's volume control (or get a...

http://www.epinions.com/content_105506836100 In 1968, I took an old Philco record player and turned it into my first hifi record player by installing a Shure M3D stereo magnetic phono cartridge and then adding a preamp and low powered amp and sealing the entire deal by building these gigantic enclosures for a pair of Jensen duo cone 8" speakers that cost a grand total of $20/Pr. This was my...

Don't know if this is true but to save somebody some hassle it could be worth reading the following (found on another ng). The uk and alt groups have been getting a post saying insert name of group here "going down the pan" . If it appears here (or on any other groups you guys frequent) then if you respond, it is set to send the response to alt.peace. Someone has targeted that group like...

My D300 is now unusable, after an a couple of years of getting uncreasingly fussy. The transport motor spins but has inadequate torque to get up to speed. Looking at the abyssmal build quality inside, I'm amazed it lasted as long as it did. So, what's to do with this thing ? I've always hated it, slightly influenced by the poor service I had from Richer Sounds (Bristol) when I bought the...

I have a clip of audio that I want to edit so it sounds like it is being spoken over the telephone. Any ideas? Thanks, Marc

Ok, I have a DVD player which was one of the cheapest ones around when I bought it (mid 2001 - it's a Yelo DVD800). If I buy a 2nd-hand DAC, is that going to give me a good sound, as opposed to buying a CD player for the same money as the DAC? I'm talking low budget here? Cheers,

Though speaking up is not going to be easy with all the small minded, ego maniacal, loud mouthed losers that there are in this group. You know and we all know who you are.

Hi I wonder if someone can give me (or point to) a simple explanation as to the difference between data CD and audio CD formats. A friend of mine was trying to produce an audio CD and (I think) produced a data CD. They thought it is all data, so formats must be the same. I want much technical detail, just something clear (and authorative) enough to indicate there is a difference. As an...

Hello all, I have three DCC machines two Marantz and one Philips all three have the same problem - no output both in analogue or digital. Does anybody have any experience with this problem or know how to cure it. Many thanks
