    HTDV Artifacts on new projector

    I to have been seeing the same problem on my Hitachi 57TWX20B RPTV. I watch all my HD OTA (hey it's free!) with little if no issue...alas it is the signal NBC has chosen to send. I have been very satisfied with OTA broadcasts from all 3 so far with exception of the Olyimpics. We are...

    Roger.. You asked about brighter....well i'm a bright fan too! I almost went for a Mitsubishi Platinum but it had and has always allot of red push issues that required allot of attention but a great bright picture. I loved my Sony but when it was time to upgrade at the time Sony was having...

    Need advice on RPTV!

    Deal or Steal On Sony Book Shelf Speakers?

    Paradigm Speakers Opinions

    Well AHEM, here is a story.... I have been living with (4) NHT SuperOnes and a SuperCenter and a most excellent Atlantic Tech Sub for almost 5 years. Quite frankly I thought they were awesome and they did serve me quite well. BUT some things were missing. For movies they were almost always...
