Hi there - first time caller!
Our Pioneer 506XDE arrived yesterday and we are a little disappointed with the picture quality. I'm looking for advice on the best way to set it up before my partner decides she prefers the old Loewe 40" CRT and we have to send it back!
I am using:
Pioneer PDP506XDE
Denon 2900 DVD player
Lexicon DC-2 SSP
Sky+ box
Viewing distance 12 feet
At the moment everything is plugged into the Lexicon, the only thing going into the Pioneer being the monitor out lead on a Scart from the Lexicon into Scart input 1 on the Pioneer. The DVD image is really good (could be better?) but the Sky picture leaves a lot to be desired.
My questions are:
Should the Sky box go straight into the Pioneer on its own Scart? (Audio needs to go into the Lexicon though).
Which Scart would you recommend for which device?
Should I use RGB or Scart from the DVD?
Should I be viewing at 75 or 100 hz?
Do leads really make that much difference?
Best settings when dumping the factory settings?
Is the Fujitsu P50XHA40US significantly better?
Many thanks for your replies - please help save my Plasma from the returns dept!
