    Strato & Electrical Noise

    For those getting hum, how is the pre/pro connected to the amplifiers? Are you using balanced or RCA (single-ended)? Would balanced interconnects between amp and AVR/Pre/Pro make a difference?

    Projector & Strato Set Up

    Raj do u have 2 displays connected to the 8805? One on each HDMI out? If so, have you tried selecting HDMI MONITOR 1 OR HDMI MONITOR 2 instead of AUTO (Dual) which is the default?

    Projector & Strato Set Up

    Hey Raj. I have an NX7 fed by an 8802A. My source is a cinema 1 but the AppleTV 4K also does what you describe. I do think it has to do w a resolution change. I also notice the NX7 goes into high lamp mode. The projector fans become noticeably louder. though not loud enough to distract...

    Question About Upgrading

    I'm also considering upgrading to Strato S from Cinema One but would also have to buy an alto and DV700 for my several hundred Blurays. I'm orphaned since I can't expand to a second Cinema One and Strato doesn't work w it either wish Encore 1. could play Bluray movies from DV700 like Alto. 2...

    Kaleidescape+Roon+Tidal?

    Thx for the feedback. I already use a Roon ready endpoint and a control system. Not looking to control the system as much as to extend the utility of my current or future Kaleidescape investments. The music interface on my Cinema One is perfectly fine...so is the interface on my iPad for...

    Kaleidescape+Roon+Tidal?

    I'm an orphaned CinemaOne 2nd Gen customer still madly in love with Kaleidescape. I'll eventually move to a Strato/Terra system. I have been reading and re-reading various threads on audio and I think that a partnership with K+Roon and/or Tidal makes sense. I'd love to see this explored and...

    Control 4 or Crestron question about remote programming

    Here's another vote for SimpleControl. Has worked VERY well for me for several years. I use it to control JVC projector, Anthem D2V, Cinema One Gen 2, AppleTV, Tivo, Sonos speakers, and OPPO blu-ray player. Not difficult to program and has some pretty nice features like synchronizing across...

    4tb vs 6tb cost and availability

    Awesome news! Can C1 owners upgrade to 6 TB, too? If so, what's the process and part number?

    Cinema One owners, what options are you considering?

    No worries! These things happen. Thx for the prompt and diligent follow up!

    Cinema One owners, what options are you considering?

    I agree. I'd like that option as well. I also agree with your previous comments about K having the best user interface. Although, for audio, I'm looking closely at moving to Roon. I'm worried that K is ending support for CDs and importing audio long term.

    Cinema One owners, what options are you considering?

    Thx! Two questions: What happens when the internal drive on the C1 is nearly full? Does the C1 catalog instead? Is K considering an option for the C1 to catalog directly from the vault?

    Cinema One owners, what options are you considering?

    Back in early 2014, I was ecstatic about my shiny new C1 2nd gen. I'd bought it direct from K and was happily downloading movies from the new store. I still marvel at all that it can do for the price that I paid. There was talk that this was the beginning of a new line and that more options...

    The store has Disney, Marvel and Pixar!!!!

    Hey Raj, Did you buy any titles? If so, do they get added to your Ultraviolet account for playback via those supported services?

    The store has Disney, Marvel and Pixar!!!!

    My guess is that newer, more draconian content management, digital rights management and/or encryption are to thank here. Perhaps Disney demanded more granular control of their titles and the kOs needs to be updated/retrofit to support it. But why have different forks of the OS for Premiere...

    Streaming Musis service

    I use it too. Sonos offers access to Tidal. I love it! Agree that K should explore it. Since Alto has no music capabilities whatsoever--ironic, given its name--Tidal would be an elegant addition. Especially if K could use the catalog feature to map one's CD collection to Tidal. That'd be...

    compatible kaleidescape products with Cinema One

    AFAIK, the ONLY products compatible with the Cinema One (latest generation) were a 2nd Cinema One and/or the DV700 disc vault. As I type, I now realize that there were a couple of models of products named Cinema One. Which generation are you asking about?

    Questions about the Alto vs Premiere & UV

    The C1 has the ability to import and catalog audio CDs and does so bit for bit. The Alto cannot import CDs. Not sure if it can play them but I assume it can. That may or may not be important to the original poster. However, I happen to enjoy that functionality. Expansion options for the...

    X-Men: Days of Future Past [Blu-ray] Won't Load on Cinema 1 (2013)

    Positive. Got it for $9.99 from Amazon on Black Friday. Loaded right up and played without incident on PS4. Can you try inserting the disc directly in your player, assuming it is a C1?

    X-Men: Days of Future Past [Blu-ray] Won't Load on Cinema 1 (2013)

    I just received this disc and am unable to get it to load on my cinema 1. Player accepts the disc briefly and then ejects the disc with no error message. Have been reading that this disc uses new copy protection schemes that cause issues on all but the latest players or those that have been...

    Streaming Musis service

    I too would like to see this functionality. Especially since Alto doesn't support CDs!! I love the CD option on my newly orphaned Cinema 1. Not sure why K couldn't just add the Alto as a lower tier and keep the Cinema 1 in the lineup. But I digress. +1 for lossless audio streaming K...
