Hello all,
I saw a Xenon 810 and another model Xenon 710, at SM Mega appliance. Both are slim types but have different panel layouts. The 710 is cheaper at around PHP 5,3XX. I asked the salesperson what the differences are and he was nice enough to show the units to me. The fronts have almost the same function buttons. The displays are at almost the same location (not sure what kind of display).
At the back, one thing I noticed on the 710 is the presence of dedicated L and R audio output jacks which is not present in the 810. Both have the 5.1 channel outputs (Front L/R, Rear L/R, C, and SW), component out (3 jacks), S-video, composite, RF, and optical out. The salesperson mentioned that the 710 is not multi-region, only R3
, although I have doubts.
Are the dedicated L and R audio output jacks necessary? I wonder why the more expensive 810 does not have it!
Can someone please advise? Especially to the owners of the 810, how do you connect to your audio system? Which jacks will you use to connect to a 2 channel audio system?
Thanks,
dB
