phtnhappy,
Your input is welcome, thank you. We would do ourselves a great service to respect all our fellow audiophiles. No matter their previous indictments.
I appeal to your kinder, gentler, intelligent self, how about we move to be less sensitive to individuals posting their views about products in other theads, and more understanding of each others idiosyncrasies. We are all entitled to an opinion of products, that's what makes this place a better........well place.
Exploring each of our own positive and negative experiences with a certain product will only serve to help us all to better understand those same products. And that is a good thing, would'nt you agree? Thanks.
Hans,
Thank you for the advice, I will take that into account when operating my unit. Thanks again. To your point, I think I've heard somewhere that using the OSD is one the best ways to ensure the surround mode you've choosen is actually the one selected for a given input.
josephmckinney,
Funny thing you should bring that up. While I started the thread, I did not want to exclude anyone. I did think about encompassing Ultra Theater owners specifically, since I own an Ultra Theater combo. Maybe the idea should be explored further, to have another thread started for LMC-1/LPA-1 owners specifically. Called possibly:
Emotiva LMC-1/LPA-1 Owners Thread - The Next Grilleration, I mean Generation.
Sorry for the George Foreman pun, I couldn't resist.
HarBlar,
Sorry to hear about the flood. Hope everything is cool now. I guess the positive side, of that story is that you were able to get new speakers out of the deal. If that can be seen as a positive.
Again, the Infinity's are great speakers.
I hear what you saying about not wanting to buy another processor, right after you paid good money for that find Onkyo 804. It will serve as a fine processor until all this HDMI 1.3, Room Correction, etc., get sorted out with Emotiva.
The new top of the line processor for Emotiva ithe DMC-2 is supposed to retail at $1500, and is what I'm looking at when they become available in December or around the turn of the new year. It should be a world beater for a few years until something else comes out.
TJEli,
Nice system.Man that LPA-1 looks sweet sitting there in the rack, I can't wait to get mine. Jeepers, golly!
Is that a Velodyne SMS-1 I see on the rack? How do you like it? I was thinking about getting one, still am.
BigStig,
Sir, I understand how you feel. The DPIIx is an issue I will have to experience to gauge my sensitivity to. It may or may not drive me crazy. All depends.
I run a Comcast HDTV DVR box via coax digital cable so I think I will have to deal with those same issues. I'll see if I can work around them. I am hopeful, but we'll see. The proof is in the pudding.
I don't plan to put the LMC-1 through its paces. I plan to use the unit, listen, and be in bliss now that I can own a separates based system. With a 40% discount on future processors no doubt.
