Yeah, a humming is usually a sign of a ground loop between the power and the signal cable. If it is floating the hum could also be from an unterminated input.
Emerson Electric Company (Network Power, Process Management, Insinkerator etc) is a very well respected company.
Emerson the consumer electronics company is not affiliated with the Emerson electric company. Their TV's, microwaves and radios are definitely low end.
Does anyone know how the dual core 1.6GHz atom will compare to the 1.3GHz Core 2 Duo SU7300?
I would expect the Core 2 Duo to be faster than anything labeled Atom, but 300 MHz faster on a stripped down architecture leaves me guessing quite a bit.
Depends on what you are really trying to achieve, but Pioneer makes good audio equipment and since you are looking for cheap I say go with the cheapest non KEH, KLIPS or BOSHE brand amp you can find :p
To preface, I am an electrical engineer,
I have built a CMOY myself in my lab at work, and basically it is nothing more than an OP-AMP being used to buffer/gain your signal. The premise being the signal generated by your computer (especially a laptop) is capable of recreating the Voltage of...
That Panasonic will work and is definitely a good choice. I think Panasonic makes some of the best 32" LCD's out there.
These days it is getting tougher to find "HD Ready Monitors" instead of HDTV's. About 3-4 years ago, finding a large screen LCD that wasn't an "HD Ready Monitor" was tough...
That is a nice TV especially if you are going to use it as a computer monitor. You definitely won't be let down by the picture quality on it, though I don't find the built in sound on Samsung LCD's to be slightly lacking (my bedroom Samsung LCD is attached to a very modest sound system)...
I have a T260HD which I bought last year and is basically the big brother to the T220HD and I like it quite a bit because I use it 80% of the time as a second PC monitor and 20% of the time to actually watch TV. The reason they call the T2X0HD's monitors and not TV's is they use PC resolutions...
For PC use an LCD is definitely recommended over a plasma due to potential Image Retention issues (only if you get careless typically). Also for PC use, 1080p is definitely what you want.
1080p = 1920x1080 as a computer monitor
720p = 1280x720 technically means as a computer monitor...
The V4100 is last years model. If you get a Sony, make sure it has 5000/5100 in its name for this years model. If you get a Samsung make sure it is a B series as A series TV's are last years.
The Plasma is last years TV and the LCD looks like it might be a 2009, but I cannot tell since they don't list its model #. This deal is by no means bad considering 900 for a 46" and 1600 for a Plasma is a very good deal for either.
Looking at 2009 models, a 58" Samsung plasma is about...
I'm not even sure why I am responding to you at all since you clearly lack reading interpretation skills.... but I wanted to respond to a couple points
Yes IEC requires electronics to do certain things. That doesn't mean every engineer is good at their job. I have found plenty of...
Depends on the break. I had a friends speaker which sounded just plain terrible at certain frequencies. It looked fine at first glance. Upon closer inspection the glue on the edge of the speaker used to create an air seal to the body of it had broken down. I used some epoxy to reseal the...
As an Electrical Engineer I would like to point out that while Westom is correct on several of his points, his rants are just plain ridiculous and not worth reading.
Yes, a surge protector is generally just a surge protector, having an attractive plastic/metal case on the outside does not...
I would love to know the answer to this as well. Ive been looking for a while and can't seem to find something to fit the bill that isnt way way too expensive.
