    Quick Denon DCP-150 question

    Is the digital out on the DCP-150 optical or coaxial? I've seen it referred to as both on Head-Fi.

    Of Gender, Dorm Rooms, and Audio Sources...

    I'll be going to college this fall, and I have some reservations about fitting everything (i.e. audio equipment) into my dorm room. I know that these are some ridiculous questions, but please consider the extenuating circumstances. The first question: audio fidelity heresies aside, would it...

    Class of 2006...where are you going?

    April is the big month for college decisions and it's fast approaching. I know that I'm not the only high school senior on this forum, and I'm curious where everyone is headed off for after high school. I figure that in the next two weeks, there are going to be a lot of really happy*...

    Quick T-amp PSU Question

    I just bought the RS 13.8 volt 3-amp PSU for my T-amp and I've noticed that it's not a regulated power supply, but a switching power supply. I've read on various threads that regulated is better, but what are the pragmatic differences between a switching and regulated supply? Is it worth it for...

    Building a System around SR200

    When compared to my peers, I'm a very patient person. I believe that my patience is shown somewhat is my lack of a headphone amp. I've been a lurker/member here for two years and have yet to buy a headphone amp. This is because my philosophy about buying things is that I should save up for what...

    Rio Carbon Impressions (mini epic)

    introduction When I first got my iPod a few years ago, I was absolutely ecstatic. I had anticipated getting an mp3 player since the Rio players came out and when 256 MB of memory was a big deal. I had seen the larger Creative players, but I was wary of the 6 hour battery life. When the iPod...

    Budget HT recs needed to convert parents

    Hear my plea: A few months ago, I moved my old JVC mini-system downstairs and hooked it up to the TV to create a simple speaker system. My parents really love the external speakers and recently gave me the go-ahead to create and buy a better Home Theater system for the family room. I'm...

    Leaving a PCDP connected to a wall wart

    So, tell me, is it okay to leave a PCDP connected to a wall wart when not in use or is it better to disconnect it? I've always wondered about this. I'm thinking of my DCP-150 which I use as a stationary source. Should I unplug it when I'm not using it? Or does it really make a difference? It has...

    Dude...when did this happen? (Cnet reviews Grados)

    SR60 SR80 SR125 Interesting...their review of these and the Shure e3c changed my point of view that they only reviewed really bad headphones. If this was already posted...sorry. Note that the V700DJ is rated as better than the SR60 and SR80. It's also rated equal to the SR125.

    RIAA and FBI fight piracy

    You're going to be seeing this picture on CDs in America soon. Article here. They say 23 billion dollars have been lost to intellectual piracy theft. I guess that not all of the piracy comes from the US. Now the FBI's involved...any thoughts? I don't know what difference a picture will...

    I got a Denon DCP-150

    Hi. I've lurked on this forum for awhile, but I've finally registered. Hooray for me and yes, my wallet has already suffered. I'm not much of a full-blown audiophile since I'm still a student but I'm trying. A week ago I bought a perfectly functioning Denon DCP-150 with the case and two dead...
