    Sony VPH-D50Q FP and Progressive Scan

    Chris....yes you're right...can't seem to get the red tube to cooperate in that pesky lower right corner. I'll try again when I have renewed patience and a few spare hours... Thanks again for the tip. Dan

    Sony VPH-D50Q FP and Progressive Scan

    Thanks for the reply Chris. Your settings are only half the story though. Because the Denon and it's PS signal is a new kind of input- diferent from what my old Sony DVD put out- the tubes had to be re-registered. I found the Sony Service Manual for the D50-Q online http://www.vidya.com/D50/...

    Sony VPH-D50Q FP and Progressive Scan

    I have a Sony VPH-D50Q CRT front projector with the built in line doubler board (EXB-DS10) and I recently upgrade my DVD player to a Denon DVD-2900 with progessive scan output. The problem is I can't get the projector to see the PS output. I turned off the board (on the setup menu) and tried...

    HTF REVIEW: "Signs" (with screenshots)

    Having loved Shyamalan's last two features I was absolutely shocked at how bad this movie was. SF is my favourite genre and I'm always complaining Howllywood doesn't put out enough Science Fiction, so I'm pretty easy to please (I loved Dune) but this film is tedious, badly written, with...

    Who owns Paradigm Studio 100's?

    Chris, For Home Theater 140 watts will be fine. I got the red lights flashing on the Bryston while listening to Santana at high volume. Get these speakers man, you won't be sorry. And in the future if you upgrade your amp, you'll fall in love with their sound all over again. Dan

    Who owns Paradigm Studio 100's?

    I was driving mine with a Bryston 9B but the 120 watts per ch wasn't enough and I was getting red overdrive lights on the amp. I now have a Cinepro 3K6 (400w per ch)and they sound incredible, like I went out and bought new speakers. These speakers are real power hogs. D.

    ATTN: Cinepro Owners/ looking for power conversion instructions

    Hi, Now that Cinepro has (temporarily?) gone out of business, I'm looking for information from Cinepro 3K6 owners on how to do a 110 to 220v power conversion on the amp. Any info is appreciated. Thanks, Dan

    Is Cinepro out of business?

    This is really bad news. I've been saving for three years to buy a Cinepro 3K6III and now that I'm finally ready to order I read this. You can't buy 6x400 watt amp in Cinepro's price range that I know of- and I've looked. Very sad. I can only hope someone buys the company and starts...

    Double-Double or Double Trouble?

    That's the answer I was looking for. Thanks Michael.

    Double-Double or Double Trouble?

    I suppose I could have re-phrased the original post question to something like this........ If I have a set with a built in line doubler, should I bother to spend the $$$ to upgrade to a progressive scan DVD player? I can't do a test if I don't buy and I won't buy if it's not going...

    Double-Double or Double Trouble?

    Michael, I have the Sony VPH-D50Q front projector with Sony's EXB-DS10 built-in line doubler board which I can manually turn on or off. Dan

    Double-Double or Double Trouble?

    I'm thinking of buying a new DVD player with a progressive scan output. I'll use the player's component output into my FPTV which has a built in line doubler. Will the scan be quadrupled (sp?) or what? How will the image be effected? Anybody know? Thanks, Dan

    Horizontal Towers/A workable idea?

    Dave, I agree the 100's are nice but because my HT room isn't very wide they are a bit obtrusive. I bought the speakers before I bought the screen and FPTV. Before I consider selling them for matching fronts, I think I'll do a test by putting them up on blocks horizonataly and have...

    Horizontal Towers/A workable idea?

    This post has be sitting over in the speaker forum for a day or so with no replies. Can anybody here help me out? >I've got a 110 inch 16x9 screen which takes up almost one whole wall of my home theater. My L&R speakers are Paradigm studio 100 towers (2 woofers, 1 mid, 1 tweeter) At...
