733	Thanks for the replies, but I don't think you understood what I was asking. I'm just looking for the cheapest way to incorporate 5.1 with my Sansui quad ...	aadon2600	Mar 3, 2001 10:05 pm
734	Just read what I posted and still may not be clear...sorry! See previous post, and let me add:<br>I haven't bought any 5.1 stuff, including a DVD player....	aadon2600	Mar 3, 2001 10:08 pm
735	Go for an Apex 703. $180 from CC and it has DD<br>decoder built in which can down mix from six<br>to 4 channel! I can't say enough about this unit<br>it sounds...	fujiphotostore	Mar 4, 2001 1:01 am
736	Just get yourself a DVD Video player that has a built in Dolby/DTS decoder.You could get Dolby alone, but you would miss the DTS titles that are availlable....	the_quadfather	Mar 4, 2001 3:03 am
737	yes, but in my first post I specified I wanted to decode Ddigital and DTS, and unless I'm mistaken that one just decodes Ddigital. Thanks for your reply...	aadon2600	Mar 4, 2001 8:51 pm
738	thanks for your response...I know I could get a DVD player that decodes Ddigital and DTS and has 6 analog outs. THis would be simple & should work great with...	aadon2600	Mar 4, 2001 8:58 pm
739	Well..i just wanted to tell you my opinion:<br> Don't buy a dvd-player with the decoders inside.<br><br> For example, if you ever wanted to decode something...	l_vanajas	Mar 4, 2001 11:05 pm
740	The Technics SHAC500D decoder decodes both DTS and Dolby AC-3, also it handles red book PCM and Dolby Pro Logic (from Digital). It has a switch that will...	the_quadfather	Mar 5, 2001 4:31 am
741	Hard to have DD, DTS and Cheap all togheter, but there's a way, if you like fiddling with cables:<br>Apex 703 with DD-AC3 decoding for DVD, connected to the ...	winopener	Mar 5, 2001 8:10 am
742	Hooray for the DTS people, who have conquered their queasyness over advertising and promotion. A few days ago they showed up at a local music merchant with ...	shipwreck_quad	Mar 7, 2001 2:13 am
743	Is it possible to transfer to the old style Jewel case? You can get them at Radio Shack. If the materials are loose,like they are in a standard case, maybe you...	the_quadfather	Mar 7, 2001 3:51 am
744	Nope - you would have to trim away vital pieces of the artwork to make the paper pieces fit....	shipwreck_quad	Mar 7, 2001 5:32 am
745	You can get CD jewel cases much cheaper at a computer store than a Radio Shack, where they average about 30 cents each. The last time I looked at jewel cases...	shipwreck_quad	Mar 7, 2001 5:35 am
746	Hey Y'all:<br><br>I wanted to give y'all the web address for the National Audio Company who sells high quality reel to reel recording tape for good prices. The...	the_quadfather	Mar 8, 2001 5:04 am
747	Another souce I have found is www.polylinecorp.com. Their prices aren't as low, but their selection is good. They also have boxes, takeup reels...	tabpat	Mar 8, 2001 2:19 pm
748	Yeah, National Audio has that stuff too. The only thing they didn't have is sensing tape. I haven't been to NAB since they went to Atlanta. That was wild! They...	the_quadfather	Mar 9, 2001 2:49 am
749	Anyone (re: "Old Time Quad-ers") know if a Sansui XP-99 Turntable has low capacitence wiring that will support a CD-4 cartridge. The manual does not say ...	obli098	Mar 9, 2001 3:43 am
750	I don't know the answer to your question, but there are ways to tell. The low capacitance cables are thicker than the standard cable which back then was pretty...	the_quadfather	Mar 9, 2001 12:17 pm
751	Well, it is an "older" turntable, but I think it came out "after" quad. I'll have to put on my glasses and look the wiring over. (When I first bought it, I did...	obli098	Mar 9, 2001 10:30 pm
752	It still might be quad ready, unless it was a new design at the time. I would suggest that you try it. It can't do any harm. If it won't work, you might just...	the_quadfather	Mar 10, 2001 1:08 pm
753	Thanks Quadfather! I may just get the SH-AC500D ...it's definitely a cheap option for my needs and should work at least as good as a similarly priced ...	aadon2600	Mar 11, 2001 2:26 am
754	thanks, I will take your advice.<br>I was looking at the SH-AC500D as suggested by Quadfather. <br>CHecked www.audioreview.com and someone wrote an angry ...	aadon2600	Mar 11, 2001 2:33 am
755	whew! thanks but it would have to be even cheaper before I went that route ;^><br>regards,<br>Vario...	aadon2600	Mar 11, 2001 2:36 am
756	I've noticed that some DVD Audio discs sound too bright through this decoder. I don't know if it's the decoder or just the way the discs were mastered. Most ...	the_quadfather	Mar 11, 2001 2:07 pm
757	I did not know that the SHAC500D won't decode from sattellite or cable. I wonder about that one. It decodes pretty much everything I throw at it. CDs (it also...	the_quadfather	Mar 11, 2001 2:29 pm
758	One other thing about the Technics unit, it has a soundfield that falls apart. This is a unit that came out the same time as the Mill, and we did lots of ...	quadtrade	Mar 11, 2001 8:13 pm
759	OK, thanks for your input Quadtrade.<br>what is the Mill?<br><br>Also re: other receivers w/DTS & Dolby AC3 sounding better than the Technics - do you mean...	aadon2600	Mar 11, 2001 10:51 pm
760	I would expect that he means Millenium. I disagree. The unit is worth having. It is a good unit for the price, it gets you in the game. What do you mean about...	the_quadfather	Mar 12, 2001 2:25 am
761	What soundcards should I check out? <br><br>I would ultimately like to get the Minnetonka software - and it requires a card w/6 outs.<br>BUT that might not...	aadon2600	Mar 12, 2001 4:18 am
762	I have succesfully used a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz. It can have, depending on configuration, 4 inputs and 6 outputs. It is keenly priced, street price under...	malcolm2010	Mar 12, 2001 10:43 am
