Next : Silver Anniversary XT

waaa....good good.....Do you need to sign anything?

I also waiting my cable to come.....

Which model HDMI and subwoofer cable you order???

1) Your TV also has an internal upscaler or it wouldn't be able to fill the screen. The Panny has a good upscaler, so don't feel too disadvantaged at not having a HDMI DVD. If you're sitting over 10ft, you won't really see a difference and may regret squeezing out an extra RM400 for a new player. Of course, if you already plan to buy a new one, then by all means go ahead. Just that not having one doesn't mean your TV will suck. Plasmas are very forgiving of the source unlike LCDs.

2) I'm using Monster THX, my mom is using the panny freebie. The Monster is a little sharper and brighter. The Panny freebie is still highly watchable. Monster is nice to have if you got some extra budget but not essential to enjoying your Plasma. That's why so many forumers like Plasma. It's highly forgiving of the source and integrates into your existing system well without needing substantial upgrading.

Ok let me know when you find out...I am still waiting for my unit

Yeap. She did sign it.

See? Got to sign for the package. So it's more secure, the posmen can't just leave it on the mailbox.

ok Thanks.....how many days from the time you placed order and reached?

Then I can count when my unit will reach...

Se7en days.

Always 7 days never late
Anyway, u got any particular reason for buying that QED sub cable? Does it come with Y splitter?

Coz I don't have one. No it doesn't come with Y splitter. What sub cable are u using now?

4.5m Audioquest Copperhead. This one has built in Y splitter especially for sub. Got it on ebay

Did you buy it from a Malaysian seller selling Audioquest stuff on eBay? Just wondering.

Any chance that Malaysian's name is Curtis Howard?

Opppsss ......... sorry my bad.

Hm....my order have not arrived....might be I order last last saturday...and they only start to deliver on last tuesday....then I think my order shall arrive tommorow la......

Looks like I will be ordering from Futureshop soon too.
What you guys think of those thin IXOS speaker cable at futureshop... the cheapest and probably the most suitable for surround speakers that I can find.

Maybe to get the Chord HDMI also, but is it really worth it aside from 'Yeah! I have Chord HDMI'?
I fail to see difference between my free Panny HDMI and Giraffe.... or maybe both are at different level.... or simply beacuse of the many points discussed before = simply digital!

I am using the girafe HDMI cable also, last sat night (after test my AVR for 3-4 hours), suddenly, my audio signal suddenly flashing...my AVR panel always changing from different surround....waa....I so scare initially....Later I switch my HDMI audio to Digital Coaxial Cable...but still maintain the video for HDMI....everything solve.....later the sound become ok......and video also still go through my AVR...Do not know why....really

Today, I switch everythng to HDMI, become normal back.....really puzzle me

1) may be the audio signal disturb through HDMI cable.....hm.....
2) My new AVR have problem....I don't think so la....do tell me this ...keeeee

I believe (1) will be the problem...keeee .....I am thinking to run my AVR again tommorow for 5-6 hours again cause on leave.....and wait for my new cable to arrive from futureshop...hurray...

Ha.....I get my answer myself already.....

Cannot use HDMI conection if just audio....when TV is off....

Read the HDMI warning from the manual.....

Ha! Found this out the hard way too. My BD30 flashing U73 error code, which means HDMI problem, if playing Music CD while TV off.
But if play with TV first switched on, and turn off later while playing, then ok.

Maybe shud connect optical/digital directly to 'CD' in, for listeing to music CD.
Ok ka? Will try...
