Ang problema dito may pera kasi na sobra at pwedeng gastusin, if none, the hell I waste my time here.
IOW, nangangati! Caladryl nga dyan!
Okay, I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel here (I think..), I just hope that it is not a da*n train.
This CONFUSION started when I bought 500gb HDD, got it primarily to back-up all my files, and fortunately or unfortunately, it contains HD's. (got it at the marketplace). So!....then I PM'd several good friends here like sir Munskie about his take on the PCH. Got a +/- feedbacks, however it was more on the good side.
Later!....the OPPO 980 came into mind, given it's very reasonable price, I again asked the expertise of sir Pchin in regards to OPPO player in general (he owns 983), I was advised to get the 983, but told him I was only gearing for the 980. Given a few minutes, I was just about to hit the BUY button when I read that the 980 is only good or prefers for screens
up to 42? Eh..I plan to use it my my PJ (90"), so scratched that for the mean time. You may ask why I didn't go for the 983?...reading and based on some feedbacks, the upscaler or some call it cosmetic HD is not that satisfying.
Parang pinipilit lang ang feeling ko sa upscaler....which I maybe wrong, based on the feedbacks I read now.
Now here comes the HTPC,
@ dyerds, I agreed with you right?
why don't I just upgrade my PC and use it for my PJ, then get a small screen for my personal use, a swiveling arm beside my chair ? (got this idea from sir jay2...
) this I think is the most cost effective way of using my HDD.
Baka makabili pa ako ng laptop. However, thinking of the DL part, im which I don't really have the patience and my DSL connection speed is not that fast, but the PCH is very comfortable to use. This will still be second on my list. I'd still prefer going out,shopping for DVD's. I am actually having the same dilemna when I had an iPod, do I rip and get rid of all my CD's and just settle for this thingy?
May gusto ko pa rin yung may hinahawakan at nayayakap.
started with the TV then AVR and so on. Probably the same thing is happening to bro froot that is why he is contemplating on which path to take not to mention also pala yung palagi ko pagbabasa dito sa PDVD forum, naka apekto ng malaki sa gastos ko para sa hobby na ito
@sir vtec3, SPOT ON! ka dyan. My audio gears has been with me for over 10yrs now, I initially invested on the PJ which I got a year ago, the construction and treatment of my room, then the furniture. So now back to the drawing board and hoping to get some suggestions to my confusion. I could have gotten the Bluray when it first came out, but after some waiting, now I am asking....did Bluray really win the war? I am thinking there is more to come and more confusion to follow.
OT: btw got the chance to see the Bang Olufsen store at Greenbelt. Inquired about a satellite speaker with what...six 3" woofer, an 8"sub, and a Tuner/CD player standalone (heat sensored, when you are about to press the panel automatically opens) ito yung nasa NipTuck na gamit. Akala ko mahal na yung BOSE ko....when asked
319,000ph daw, may discount naman ng 10%.
Oh...so which path will I take? Give me a few more days. Maybe joining the 2nd Shoot Out at sir streetsmart's HT might end this dilemna.
Many thanks for all the feedback guys, keep it rollin'!
Later....
