|   Need some help/suggestions... | Denon_man
Jul 27, 2002 8:54 PM | | Hi,
I need to upgrade 2 things in my system. I need to add a Sub and I need to upgrade my Philips DVD player (currently DVD 825). The Phil is great, except that it skips on layer changes and it wont pass DTS to my Denon AVR-2802. I have B&W DM602s and I need a matching sub. What is more important? My budget is around $250 and I will be buying used. I need progressive scan and VCD compatability, SACD/DVD-Audio would be nice too (but not needed)
Another question (not audio related)
I recently added a dimmer in my HT room, the light bulbs make a high pitched noise which is really irritating during quiet points in movies. Am I doing something wrong?
Suggestions are appreciated.

It is not the light bulb that is making high pitch noise, but rather it is the Dimmer switch. They utilize a circuit called "Switching circuitry" that causes that buzz. The best method to combat this problem is to turn it off while your HT is on. |
