thanks for all the posts! I was really angry about this and wanted to return 963 and try another one, but it will not solve anything... though I will definitely try to play one of these in another 963 unit... yesterday I tried another copy protected CD, Pulseprogramming: Tulsa For One Second...

tanfenton... I have just 3 listed above and all of them are copy protected. It even says on the CD cover COPYRIGHT CONTROLLED or something like that, don't have them here right now... what's the use of this protection if I cannot listen to the music! jazz... i don't want to return them...

thanks JAZZ! and you're right! all of them are copy protected... but this is so stupid and it pisses me off ... you pay money to support musicians and music industry or whatever and then you buy originals and you get what?!?! most (cca95%) of my collection is originals, but i guess others aren't...

Bought Philips DVD963SA 3 weeks ago and was really satisfied with it and still am actually, but one thing really confused me yesterday... noticed some digital pops/click on certain CDs, actually just on 3 of them, and on other 200 or more played everything is fine, so a bit confused...

so does any of you know if ESP or G-Protection options affect on audio and how? these probably use some compression? D-EJ855 is with G-Protection...can it be shut off? because i won't need it at all...

thanks duncan! line out is definitely my priority! because i intend to use the player at work and with porta corda, so probably i'll go for EJ855 then! what's the price for new EJ855 anyways? and for D777, just in case ?

what do you people use then with your porta corda and ER-4S? i think i will buy that Grundig 4100 that Lini suggested... any Sony or other of new models that are bellow $150? my sony D-EJ401 has pretty decent line out, but it skips ocasionaly so i'd like to try another... i am sure you have...

i just ordered ER-4S and already own Porta Corda. I also have 5 years old Sony D-E401 PCDP which skips sometimes, so that is the main reason why i am posting this... Should i maybe consider buying something better? What would be the best thing to buy of new models if your limit is $150? What...

I have Senn's HD250 and the cable is a bit old and ruined, so if maybe some of you can give me some advice how to replace the cable and which cable i can use, how long one... any thoughts? HD250 are plugged into porta corda so i'd like to use mini plug... thanks rmer

thanks to all for the info... can some point me out where to hear more about that adapter cable that can make 4p's into 4s's has anyone tried 4s's with porta corda? maybe some review already here? does it work better with 120Ohm adapter or without ? can maybe someone compare it with other...

i have porta corda and i am interested into buying these... can anyone tell me where is the best place to buy them? also if anyone has them with porta corda i'd really like to hear if you are satisfied and some opinions... my beyer's dt831 are sometimes to heavy to carry around thanks robert

i recently won monster ip400mkII (0.75m) on ebay and it will be at my place in a week or so... rmer

does anyone know where to buy Acoustic Research rca to stereo mini cable? or if someone has like 0.5m of DH Labs Silver Sonic BL-1 to sell to me, i know someone of you guys recently said that will order like 50 meters from welbornelabs... let me know best rmer p.s. maybe someone is...

was thinkning about rode nt3, not nt2 like i wrote because nt2 is too bulky and a bit expensive for me for now so nt3 or c1000s or maybe that sony eclect is good enough too for what i need ? rmer

i know that this may be wrong list to ask, but i don't know any mike-fi list (let me know if there is any though). i have sony mz-r700 MDrecorder and i want to get not too expensive and not too heavy mic for field recordings. i don't want to record vocals, instruments or anything like that so i...
