Hi Vysakh, They dont add up, they can only work individually, the cpu chip gpu works when you are not pushing display to the max, it is to save battery, heat and noise on a laptop. Any questions, happy to help. D

Thanks Smurf for the advice, will check out those brands. Cheers Rex for the advice on impedence, am reading it now. I think I've decided to up the budget to a AVR-1912 as I've read the amp components/power supplies are a cut above the 309 and 1312/1612. The NR508/509 was a close second but a...

Hey guys, Has anyone got recommendations for a decent centre speaker for a budget to mid-range system. My L/R are bookshelves are of pretty good quality, an Australian manufacturer named Krix that run at 6 ohms 100W max at 88dB for 2.83V. I got given the bookshelves so I didn't even know the...

I got both the Krix and JBL for free so not 'attached' to them by brand. I could go a Krix Centre for about $400 but is there another manufacturer I might look at.

idonoThere will always be alot of useless crap on all platforms. The difference here is that on a windows machine there will allways be more software and more options for said software than there is on a Mac. The reason i call Apple fans iSheeps is because they are plain ignorant. They belive...

Your problem is the connection via Phono. The Phono input (I imagine a dual RCA) is very very sensitive, I understand due to the signal from a turntable requiring such. Any other device (VCR/DVD etc) is different. I don't know the exact electronics behind it but have experienced it many times...

damn, I wish I lived in the US in terms of prices. Even with the dollar virtually the same you can get a Onkyo tx-sr309 for as low as $250. Cheapest here I can find is around $450. Apols. (and damn I didn't realise it cost $200 to ship 10kgs to Australia.... we get ripped off over here). Good...

Not sure what you will get via wireless iPhone playback for that money, if anything, sorry. The Denon (H/K - same producer) AVR-1912 has something called Airplay, and its little brother the 1612 might also, but they are above your budget. @ssddx is totally correct in that Onkyo do a good...

In Australia anything with the raised ribs running down them, or a stripe is negative. Just make sure you hook up the same at BOTH ends. Figure 8 speaker cable, has the same copper content both sides.

Have a look at the Shure SE215. Durability with the reinforced cables etc is awesome and high and low end are pretty good also imo I bought a pair about 4months ago and they are awesome. Thats AU price also so you might even get the 315's for 100 US, Not sure...

And perhaps on Phase, 0 Degrees or 180 Degrees (Inverted) Gracias
