RE: Philips DVDR880 for £252 at Powerhouse

I got mine from Powerhouse for £252. Great bargain, tried playing a couple of films on it without any problems so I`m well happy. Any tips for a good place to buy Recordable Media would be appreciated.

Polars

Folks,

Can somebody out there please explain the difference between the polars mentioned when talking about speakers ?

Satellite Centre Speaker (silver)

Folks,

My centre speaker on my Eltax Stargate X1 has started to crackle so I need a replacement. It will need to be a satellite & silver. Any recommendations ??. If not I`m quite open to sugestions for replacing the whole lot & flogging the 4 remaining speakers & sub.

RE: SKY +

I`m glad I made this post. I was seconds away from parting with my hard earned wonga. Sky are just playing the digital age game & getting what they want. I`d welcome a real competitor to Sky & sit back watching the price of subscriptions & hardware fall like the FTSE 100 !!!!!!

SKY +

I`m interested in buying the SKY + system but don`t want to shell out £300 & then find out sky have knocked £100 off or start giving them away. I got stung with the digiboxes that way !! A thoroughly nice but dim chap in Curry`s told me that sky would never drop the price of the unit as they are making a £500 loss on every one they sell!!! They have an agreement with PACE that they will not sell them cheaper ever !!!! I find this hard to believe. He also said they were unlikely to be upgraded so there`s no point waiting for a bigger hard disc or something. Any thoughts folks ?

RE: What football team do you all support?

The Mighty Trickie Tree`s (Forest to those not in the know!)

RE: What was the first Dvd you ever bought?

The Matrix. I also bought Cube but watched the Matrix first. In fact I haven`t watched Cube since that first day. What was that all about ?

RE: another cheap DVD recorder offer

Doh !!! Sorry for my late post !

Phillips DVDR-980 For £399 @ Let`sBuyit.COM

Yep it`s true. they promise delivery in 7 days too !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sony DV-P735 & Pearl Harbour

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just tried to play Pearl Harbour on my beloved Sony 735. Unfortunately I can hardly get any sound through my Denon 1602 amp!!! although the sound comes through the Tv fine.I can get sound through when the interactive menu is up & the THX things sounds superb as soon as the film starts & the bi-plane fly`s towards the screen hardly a thing comes through. I turned my amp up to max & can hardly hear anything. I`ve tried everything I can think of so I`m turning to the experts in my hour of need.I tried Charlies Angels (stop laughing) straight after & that comes through loud & clear.
