RE: crown ,mico dvd

Hi AWJ72,

Any chance you could mail the review to me too at :

elixeomzig[at]moc.liamtoh

I`m considering getting a mico ( if sainsburys ever get them back in near me!) If not, anyone got any other recommendations? How about the dansai from tesco (852) or the slimline H&B (£129 from amazon) I was considering the Pioneer 444 but then I read on the forums about the mico and thought it was worth a go at haf the price of the pioneer.
Currently I still have one of the original Scan SC2000`s which is ok but suffers from blockiness in the backgrounds sometimes (matrix etc) so I`m looking for something better than that!

Cheers!

widescreen vcr?

Hi, I realise that this isn`t strictly a dvd question & I might be being a bit thick but I thought someone might know:

What does it mean when the blurb for a vcr says something along the lines of `16:9 recording and playback capability` ?

I thought all vcrs did that - am I missing something?

Just wondered cos I`m about to get a new one so wondered if I needed one that said that.....

Cheers,

Neil

RE: surround sound question

Cheers.
Just had a listen in my local Currys and it sounded pretty good. Does it have a DTS decoder as well as the Dolby Digital or is the DTS logo just for the 6 channel inputs? Not sure whether to go for the 315 for the extra power - I like the small size of the 215 though......don`t think 315 will fit anywhere!

RE: surround sound question

Thanks for the info. I think you`re right and I should be ok. I knew one of the scarts did output as well as input but I thought it just did whatever was coming in from the other scart. A quick recheck of the manual tells me that I can select tvtuner as the source to output so hopefully should be fine.

I`ve been looking into either the Sony htk-215 or 315 anyone know if they`re any good?

Thanks,

Neil

surround sound question

Hi,

I`ve recently bought a Toshiba widescreen tv and am now thinking of getting a sourround sound amp and speakers. This should be great for dvd and video but, trouble is, the tv doesn`t have audio out sockets. Does this mean that I can`t get pro logic while watching `normal`, terrestrial tv? Is there any way of getting around this? Could I use the headphone socket for instance?

Hope someone can help.

Thanks in advance,

Neil
