Can anybody tell me where to buy is the best price ? thanks Ermm.... wat for you need bluetooth on a receiver? That's a pretty good price you got there. Some forumers are able to get it for RM1890 at Legend SS2. Better get it at Harvey Norman, easier to find parking  |

I think I might have to consider getting the CHT-10R instead. My setup is in my bedroom of around 350sf only and the movie area is about a quarter of that only

I've just finished hooking up the amp and played some scenes from the Mr & Mrs Smith and Dave Matthews BD. Fantastic stuff, definitely a big improvement from my Denon AVR-1705

If any of you guys think that your subwoofer is not powerful enough, I'd suggest you get one of these. It's friggin' huge at over 7 feet long!

A few weeks ago, I posted about my old amp having no sound coming out of one channel. Somebody suggested that I open up the casing and get rid of the dust in there. I finally got around to open up the casing just now and gave the internal a few good blows. After that I hooked up an audio source and a speaker, all channels now working
Anybody want a Denon AVR-1705? Half price, RM600 only http://www.crutchfield.com/S-10F21GafQ8Y/A...20&I=033AV1705B This post has been edited by arj: Jul 30 2008, 06:38 PM |

Got myself a pair of AE Neo 1 and AE Neo Center yesterday
Will be using my existing KEF satellites for the surrounds. A few people suggested I use the KEFs from the front for a 7.1 setup but I think that'll be too messy! Next project: Subwoofer |

QUOTE(mys_terious @ Aug 21 2008, 11:25 AM) i think sanyo z2000 was rm8K plus when i checked more than 6 months ago.. although its just the 'entry' model for full hd, many pro have mentioned many times that a average full hd pj is always alot better than a great 720p pj... this includes the blacks I think somebody mentioned before that there's no tax for projectors.epson tw1000 if buy from price japan delivered to malaysia also below rm7500.. lets say u belanja the custom rm500 for poweroot kopi, total is rm8k with 2 years international warranty.. i have also called up epson malaysia n they have confirmed they do cover the warranty. but i went for optoma 65 at the end also.. for rm3600 n the pic quality really vely good for me liao.. like htkaki said.. BEST VALUE! |

QUOTE(callmevil @ Aug 22 2008, 06:43 AM) as for this 'pc' product thing. its only tax free if the pc comes as whole.. say if u bring them in parts like just a psu, u will get taxed.. i dont understand either. Yes, PSUs will get taxed if you bring it in individually but for other parts like processors, RAMs, graphics card, motherboards.... they're non-taxable. |

QUOTE(djdyks @ Aug 30 2008, 02:58 PM) Monster's Y-Splitter @ $68 ... ok ah ? If RM then the price is kinda ok. If USD then is expensive IMO.QUOTE(callmevil @ Aug 30 2008, 03:45 PM) Y effects SQ o not?? It increases the volume abit...QUOTE(fentanyl @ Aug 30 2008, 03:46 PM) Isn't that too low? Your sub volume? My sub volume is at around 40%. I think -3 is just nice. Any higher it can be a bit boomy.Added on August 30, 2008, 3:49 pmI did YPAO for my system with subwoofer volume at 65%. Here is the result: Front Channel R & L -2.5db Centre Channel -2db Surround L & R -2.5db Sub +3.5db is it OK? |
