- About a week ago I posted an article concerning my new Sony receiver's
- surround problem, a slight buzz coming from the rear speakers. First of all,
- many thanks to those who responded with possible diagnoses. I'm happy to say
- that I exchanged the unit for a new one, and the problem is gone, so it was
- just that one defective unit, not a design flaw on Sony's part.
-
- That said, I heartily recommend this unit. 120x2 w/ch or 75x3 w/ch front, 30
- w/ch rear, DSP, 20 soundfield settings, and a lot of other stuff. If you're
- interested in this unit, you can buy it from Colonel Audio/Video in Texas for
- $405, the best price I have seen for this unit. Very good service also.
-
- I also bought some Cambridge SoundWorks Ensemble II's, and like most people
- who have recommended this set on this newsgroup, IMO it's one of the best
- satellite/subwoofer speakers systems you can buy for the money.
-
- Last but not least, I got the Sony CDP-X229ES CD player from Kief's Audio in
- Lawrence, Kansas, for $310. Again, excellent service and price, and the unit
- sounds great - it uses Sony's new 90MHz HDLC Converter, along with other
- things.
-
- Anyway, if anyone's interested in specs or recommendations, please let me
- know. I'm a very satisfied customer of the above dealers, and nothing else.
