Toshiba is in the final phase for selling the HD DVD players. HD DVD players are the next generation optical disc system. It has been targeting a Japanese market launch by the end of 2005. The designs of the HD DVD players are ready for the U.S. and Japanese market and are ready for volume production.
Besides the experience of high picture quality, HD DVD offers many advanced features, including the extensive copy protection management system of AACS (Advanced Access Content System). AACS is integrated into players and discs to secure content from illegal copying. Various industry participants are in the process of finalizing the last details for implementation of AACS. Because the DVD Forum has adopted AACS as an integral part of the HD DVD format, Toshiba will launch its HD DVD products only after AACS is finalized.

Just read an interesting article on "Computer Audio Takes Aim at CDs":
"Here’s a great article on why computer audio is potentially better than CDs. Steve Nugent of Empirical Audio, maker of the Off-Ramp and Freeway USB transports we covered earlier, explains why jitter (the little picture) makes CDs ultimately inferior. If you’ve ever wondered why a medium based on 1s and 0s has so many problems then this article is for you.

We are back at the end of 2005 ready for some great lists. Here is the list of Robert Silva at About.com. This is list of basic products.
If a subwoofer doesn’t provide enough "kick" for you, then add more fun to your home theater with the Crowson Technology TES-100 Tactile Transducer. Although subwoofers bring realistic bass sound to the home theater environment, there is still something missing - tactile sensation. The combination of the TES100 Transducer and A200 Amplifier enables one to turn his/her own chair into a home theater component that adds the sensory experience of touch to your viewing and listening enjoyment.

For less than $2,000, this set sports a 32-inch 16×9 screen, as well as HD-compatible progressive scan and DVI-HDCP inputs, perfect for watching DVD and HD material (with an outboard set-top box). The LT32HV includes great sounding side-mounted speakers, and an output to connect an external subwoofer. The LT32HV also has extensive picture adjustment controls, a very wide viewing angle due to its Super Inplane Switching, and good response time, which minimizes motion lag on poor source material.

[[image:dvpns9100es_1.jpg::right:0]]Since I like the combination of DVD-video, SAVD and CD, I want to show you the Sony DVP-NS91000ES. This is a combination player sits within Sony’s ES range of Hifi components.
The DVP-NS91000ES is the first combination player in the ES range to include an i.Link (IEEE 1394) interface digital output for the DSD signal. The NS9100ES also includes HDMI and up-scaling to 1920 x 1080i, Precision Cinema Progressive, 14-bit /216 MHz video D/A converter and Audio-Video SYNC.
This new player is ideal for a high quality home cinema installation. The inclusion of HAT (High quality digital Audio Transmission System) technology overcomes the problem of jittery signal caused by the 1-bit DSD conveying high data rates. HAT incorporates three principal elements, variable-speed transmission from the player, buffer memory in the receiver and command signals from the receiver to the player, controlling transmission speed.
