The audio experience is enhanced by the five DSP modes--arena, theater, jazz club, stadium, and disco--that simulate the acoustics of the most common live venues.

As with the best surround receivers, the VR-9060-S offers decoding for a variety of formats, including Dolby Digital EX, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24, TXH Cinema, and Dolby Pro Logic IIx. The first several formats play 6.1- and 7.1-channel soundtracks from the latest DVDs, while Pro Logic IIx converts two-channel audio sources such as CDs, VHS tapes, and even LPs into full multichannel splendor to create a surround-like effect. The receiver also boasts an active equalizer function that adapts to the type of speakers you own (full range, satellite, etc.) and the type of program you're listening to (movies, music, or TV). The resulting audio can meet all types of expectations, whether you like your audio tight and crisp or full of booming echoes.

Additional audio functions include automatic signal detection for both analog and digital sources (instinctively switches between CD player, DVD player, or satellite receiver depending on which unit is playing); individual bass and treble controls; and a Midnight Theater mode that softens loud passages of movies so that people in other rooms won't be disturbed. And, of course, the receiver includes a quartz PLL-synthesized AM/FM tuner with 40 station presets.

Adding to the VR-9060-S's value is the receiver's ability to serve as an A/V component switcher (it's HD-ready), which is ideal for TVs with a limited number of inputs, and its S-video up-conversion function, which converts composite signals to S-video to improve picture quality and minimize signal loss.

For the ultimate in flexibility, the VR-9060-S offers three component video inputs (for such items as DVD players and HD receivers), five S-video inputs, and five composite inputs. It also comes with five video outputs (one component, two S-video, and two composite), along with eight audio inputs (including a front-panel auxiliary and a six-channel input) and four digital inputs (two coaxial and two optical). Listeners can even use the receiver to control speakers and components in other rooms thanks to the multiroom A/V and IR control outputs. The VR-9060-S, which measures 17.31 by 6.25 by 15.62 inches (W x H x D), comes with a universal learning remote control and is covered by a two-year warranty on parts and labor.

Product Description

Linear Flash PC Cards support true random access so reads literally happen in a flash. Not only can these cards access stored data rapidly; they can also execute programs directly from the card. This opens the doors for vertical applications. Non-volatile Linear Flash cards are used in a variety of applications, including networking and telecom equipment, industrial controls and instrumentation. Random access, ruggedness and reliability are the basic qualities required of Linear Flash cards. Adding convenient size and low power consumption makes a sure winner.Linear Flash cards from SMART Modular Technologies are fully PC Card (Type I) compatible and operate faster than hard disks, but are removable like floppy disks. Since there are no moving parts, Linear Flash cards operate reliably in conditions that can be normally hostile to data. These cards use solid-state components that can be used day-in-day-out because they are far more reliable than the moveable parts of hard drives.

LAMINATOR ACCENT II DISC NORTH Manufacturer: PRIMERA TECHNOLOGY INC Model Number: 62611

Product Description

The SCSI Terminal Server provides from 2 to 32 local serial ports that require no complex network overhead. The ports, which are simple to install and configure, attach externally to the SCSI bus of a Unix or Windows NT system. The RS-232 ports can be used for connecting devices such as terminals, modems, and printers. All SCSI Terminal Servers work with Unix systems from Sun, Hewlett-Packard, DEC/Compaq, and Silicon Graphics, as well as with systems running.The SCSI Terminal Server attaches externally via the standard SCSI system bus, a single card slot. A SCSI-1 switch and two SCSI-2 connectors are located on the back of each unit. The unit can thus be easily daisy-chained to other SCSI Terminal Servers and a wide variety of SCSI peripherals. Unlike conventional terminal servers that must use Telnet and Rlogin to create pseudo-ports, the SCSI Terminal Server provides real serial ports that appear as local TTYs under Unix and as native COM ports under Windows NT. This makes the SCSI Terminal Server simple to install and configure, without the problems of complex network protocols. The simple instruction guide and automated procedures save you valuable time. The SCSI Terminal Server supports speeds up to 115 or 230 Kbps. The intelligent design allows this performance to be achieved efficiently, with minimal impact on the SCSI bus even during peak loads. A simple packetizing protocol allows multiple lines to be serviced with each SCSI transaction, minimizing bus-loading and decreasing CPU overhead. Operating system drivers for Unix and Windows NT are provided at no extra charge with each unit. They are available on CD-ROM or may be downloaded from the Digi Web site. The drivers install automatically and provide several useful utility programs.

One year warranty. 1.5 years later, boom! Monitor goes dead as door knob. I originally paid $387.17 for this monitor new in 2005. I'm glad monitor prices have gone down, but this a big disappointment. I have old old monitors that have lasted me 10 years plus! I expected much more on life of product.

Nice Quality For Your Buck.......2002-01-12

I brought the monitor from Future Shop this Boxing Day; the price is in creditable low. This monitor is Awesome! The picture quality is totally clear and vibrant! For this price and quality, I can't say enough about how I feel about my purchase, so enough said, It's great!!

don't bother with this hunk.......2001-02-01

short and sweat review: Nice display when working. The big problem is that there is a bug in the geometry settings. Not only do you have to play with all the setting when switching resolutions, this monitor will reset it's geometry settings on a whim. You never know if your going to boot up to an oval display or not. Proview must of thought we enjoy fooling with their neat on screen controls so much that they gave us a reason to go in to them.

Customer Reviews:

Recommend SMC. .......2006-11-21

sometimes we have to ask ourselves -- is the consumer equipment we buy designed to be run 24/7 weeks on end? My SMC router worked quite well for about 2 yrs. It was mostly used in wired setting and as a consumer unit it worked fine.

After it failed, tech support was patient to troubleshoot the problem. After numerous resetting and troubleshooting -- my unit was replaced.

The lifetime warranty is amazing, generous and should be one of the reasons people should seriously consider SMC. Currently the warranty has been changed for the 'life of the unit' but still it's amazing that there are companies out there such as SMC that stand behind their products like that. When possible, I try to buy SMC.

On practice side -- online setup menu very well designed, ergonomics of the unit, wireless range and power of the signal -- all great. Network Printer port, unlike what I've seen in competing router models -- my SMC built in printer worked like a charm on every PC, even one running Win 98.

SMC doesn't produce millions of models as competition -- but those it does - are quite good and solid.

A steady performer for many years.......2005-11-18

While my folks have gone through 3 or 4 routers; this one SMC barricade has served me since 2001 with no complaints.

It is now starting to stop working every so often, so I have to reboot (pull the plug and plug it back in) so I am ready to upgrade.

Signal strength has been great - I can get signal from the far corner of my basement without a problem, anywhere inside the house, and outside as well.

Scam Warrenty, Zero Tech Support.......2004-05-22

SMC's "Lifetime Warrenty" is good for the "Lifetime of the Product", which means that when your product stops working after 1 year (like mine did) they won't fix it. And that's only after you try for days and days to get through to tech support. If you call and they're "busy" you don't even wait on hold, they say "call us back later". And of course, when you call back later, they're still busy. I went through this cycle for days and days until I finally got through and was told my warrenty was worthless.

Buy this product at your own peril.

Good but not great.......2004-03-12

Had this for more than a year with 4 wireless clients (2 SMCs, 1 Netgear, and 1 Dell TrueMobile). Easy set up (Web interface is decent), great value for the low price I paid (after rebate). I don't use the print server so I can't comment.

The only gripe I had is this thing does require occassional resets. I have it connected to a DSL router and this Ethernet interface occasionally get disconnected and the only way to bring it back is to reset the Barricade. The wireless interface stays up, however, so I can reset it via the Web interface and don't have to walk to the Barricade.
