RE: Sony DAV S880 - £549 - Multi region!

Thanx Ste,

Sorry forget it was only the processor, active sub and speakers, looked at so many all in one systems over the last few days forgot wot was wot.

Thanx for the link too, found another one

http://www.reviewcentre.com/reviews3177.html

Shame none say how many overall watts it is.

RE: Sony DAV S880 - £549 - Multi region!

thanx for that ste, but sure I heard someone say that the aego5 is crap when it comes to playing cd`s, etc. Its the business for playing dvds, dvd-r`s, etc.

Any other suggestions from others.

RE: Sony DAV S880 - £549 - Multi region!

Thanx Westy, why do so many people love it then. I thought it was 600W, isn`t that more than the s550. I think the speakers are getting to me on the s880.

Thanx for the advice though, but any other ideas on how to spend £600 on home cinema. I love my sound and want the best for £600. Will separates do the trick and manage to beat the s880.

Cheers m8

RE: Sony DAV S880 - £549 - Multi region!

True a good bargain indeed, but with the imminent release of the davs s888 I would wait a little while.

Price should go down even more. Look what happened to the c770, its now £449 at richersounds.com

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

so i take it u will be using 101cd.com again, lol

RE: SAMSUNG HI-FI WITH BUILT IN DVD CAN I MAKE IT ALL REGIONS.

this is so irritating, surely there must be a hack out there somewhere, samsung- help us please!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

ps please take me off ur mailing list, emailed u just now Kate regarding this, couldn`t really give a monkeys how cheap things are @101cd.com

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

Hooorar, guess what got home just now and what did I find in the post:-
Well here it is,

one box from dabs.com containing new usb pci 2.0 card, check it out guys, only £9.99 and truly a bargain, check it out, goto www.dabs.com and in the quicklinx type 1639WS MP3`s transfer faster than ever now to portable mp3 player :-)

anyway, back to whats in the post, 4 dvds from www.choicesdirect.co.uk, ordered Tues night, I`m beginning to like these guys now.

And heres the shocker- 2 cds from 101cd.com, basic instinct and terminator 2, do my eyes deceive me, wow I cannt believe it. Only 7 and a half weeks late, and only 6 weeks past my bros birthday. Happy birthday bro, sorry its 6 weeks late.

But I`m with u guys on this, and with those stupid automated emails- urghhhh, never ever again. In todays world where most of my things are bought online, this has to be the worst ever, but true it was sorted, but not worth the hassle again. Time to organise favourites, I see a deletion coming :-)

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

Don`t let the monkeys break you, we can do it. Just hold in there, on a plus side, at least my LOTR finally came, 2 and a half weeks late but hey if finally came.

RE: Opinions on the sony davs s880

Thanx zipman, very helpful indeed. As this is my first time in buying anything like this and being a bit of a lamer, what sort of power are u getting out of ur system. I know the davs s880 has 600w total.

Just another any mayb silly question, am I right in assuming that an all in one system works from just one plug, i.e switch on once and thats it but separates means turn each separate on.

Does that take more electricity. Again apologies for not knowing but first time doin this...

RE: PACIFIC 1002 - under 60 notes...!

hey all,

due to my sheer excitement, it plays mpeg`s, sorry not avi`s, although I will try one tomorrow and let u know the outcome. Cracking player though. Labman .jpgs are cool, had a nice little slideshow of the hols today. Superb, at under £60 what a cracker and the region hack works.

RE: PACIFIC 1002 - under 60 notes...!

cracking buy, got 1 me self today, plays absoultely everything u chuck at it, dvd r-s, avis, cdrw, u name it, it does it.!!!

Good spot

Opinions on the sony davs s880

Hi all,

Just about to send my hard earned £600 smacker roonies which had to save up for the last few months. Can get a brand new Sony Davs multiregion davs s880 for £610. Are there any all in one combos which have more power than this beast. 600w is a hell of a lot. Tested one in comet last week and it sure sounds good.

If u guys know of any better systems than this davs s880 please help me choose.

Thanx all

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

don`t even get me started on this one, no it has not arrived and yes payment has been taken, 5 weeks waiting for T2 ultimate. Just a test ordered Lord of the rings the fellowship - 4 discs last Monday, still hasn`t come yet.

btw final destination finally came from choices direct - 2 weeks after, not bad, but 5 weeks,

Nice to know that my bros birthday has now passed.

Will steer clear of these monkey magics in the future and advise any1 else too as WELL!!!!!!!!!

RE: Heat - Pacino and De Niro (R2) £4.87

Shame that they can`t do that with Final destination, order is still delayed...

RE: Couple of Bargains over at 101cd.com

JE

Check this thread out

http://dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?Forum=223&Thread=147433&Type=1

and then think about whether to order from 101cd.com
Normally (and I mean on a normally) having seen these offers u have posted, the credit card would b out straight away, I love days of thunder and top gun but due to still not receiving T2 just like Neil and Basic Instinct taking 3 and a half weeks I think not. Sorry but just like it is.

RE: Lord Of The Rings (Fellowship) 4 disc DVD for £17.99 (Region 2)

please oh please for the love of god, do not order anything from 101cd.com

but on the other hand if u like waiting 4 and a half weeks for a dvd to arrive then please go ahead.

RE: Did anyone have any problems ordering their Basic Instinct S.E. ?

lol, just found out what endearing means,

but anyway back to issues, it goes down to the basics,

"have good customer service and u tell 5 people, but have bad customer service and u tell 20 people."

This is what is happening to 101cd.com at the mo.

Ordered about 100 dvds from play and 10 from cdwow, all came within 5 days.

Ordered 2 cds from 101cd.com

1 only just came after 3 weeks and the other will be arriving after 5 weeks.

Will I order agin, well u decide?

True, I know they`re coming on the forum but only after a whole load of us pestered them and sent them mails directing them here....

Throw us another freebie and i`ll think of shoppin at 101cd.com again,

RE: Did anyone have any problems ordering their Basic Instinct S.E. ?

WOW, now we have the wording DELETED, will my T2 ever come, rest assured after 3 weeks of waiting, I WILL NEVER EVER ORDER AGAIN FROM 101cd and will make sure every knows that 101cd.com is CRAP.

they even have the cheek to send me their emails about their latest offers,
like i`ll order from them again. U MUST BE JOKIN.

Hope they read this too, was gonna give choices direct a good show of hands but they are too take ages, ordered dvd 2 weeks ago and still hasn`t come.

PLAY.com is the way forward.

1 H8 101cd.com

RE: Did anyone have any problems ordering their Basic Instinct S.E. ?

Good on ya, at least the company has the decenct to admit when they`re in the wrong. Nice to see.

But come on 2 and a half weeks waiting for one dvd. At least my bros birthday is in 3 weeks.

Next time order 5 weeks in advance me thinks

Apologies for posting in this thread, but looking for a good cheap £50 quid ish for my samsung max-dn55, noticed on the back it had a phono out to subwoofer, and thought right get this sound boosted!!! It needs it.

RE: Did anyone have any problems ordering their Basic Instinct S.E. ?

Thanks very much for your recent enquiry to 101cd.com.

Re: Your recent order for Terminator 2 DVD set.

We have just received a delivery of the above item that we subsequently
charged to your credit card.

Unfortunately we noticed that this was the single DVD, not the double set
that you were expecting. We pulled your order from the post bag to stop it
being sent to you in error. We have made an emergency order to our
suppliers for the correct item to be sent to us.

Please bear with us whilst we wait for the correct item to come in. As
soon we receive the delivery, we will dispatch the correct item
immediately. Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience
this may cause.

Now the question is will the double set arrive,

if it does, my hats off to 101cd and u`ll be damn right I`ll order again, if not never ever again and i`ll make sure that every 1 knows that 101cd.com are rip off merchants!!!!

Anybody wanna run a book on this !! lol

RE: Did anyone have any problems ordering their Basic Instinct S.E. ?

basic instinct s.e come through AS PROMISED.

phew

RE: ....Terminator 2 Ultimate 2disc £6.49

Good one Neil

Thats the way to do it, emailed them myself 2 days ago and guess what, no reply, we`ll be in touch shortly, yeah right, can`t even get through on the phones, it sucks, so went to the 101cd.com site and on the contact us link, sent them a message saying "a lot of ur customers are disappointed, I think u should have a look at http://dvd.reviewer.co.uk/forums/thread.asp?Forum=223&Thread=147433&Type=1&Page=2

and do somethin about it"

hopefully that should help.

Next time i`ll stick to play.com

At least the customer service is excellent, not like here :-(
