I'm a relative newbie to TiVo. I got it in late November and have been using most of the current features of the Home Media Option. I'm currently out of the country for work, and I'm usually gone 2-4 weeks at a time. I know I can schedule recordings over the web from TiVo Central, but is there...

anyone with that progressive scan feature and dvd-r-rw

Guys, We recently got married and had our wedding video put onto DVD. However they tend to skip here and there. The videographer said to have them to play problem free we need a DVD player that is dvd-r/rw compatible. I am thinking about upgrading my player since it is about 4 years old and...

Guys, I hooked up my new AVR-1804 today and it will only play a cd or the radio for maybe a second before it turns itself off and then the standby light flashes. It did this when I tried the tone test as well. Is my receiver a dud? What could I be doing wrong with it. Please help me out. I am...

How can you tell if it is out of phase? I will try to mark the wire the best I can. Thanks for the help.

Guys I need help. The 14g speaker wire I bought from home depot does not have anything to indicate which side is which? So my question is, while I am crawling through the attic how can I be sure I hooked up the + input of the speaker to the + output on the tuner and the same for the negative...

Hi everyone, This is my first time actually having a little money and doing a HT system so I have a few questions on wiring. My first question deals with a subwoofer cable. Will I be fine with something off ebay that is made by acoustic research, RCA, or low end monster or do I need a good...

oh, i thought this counted as basic, i thought that was for the more detailed questions.

I have been looking for reviews and opinions online and in this forum and I can not find one for 1804. I am looking for a not so expensive receiver and I think this is a good for for me. Anyone have any opinions.

the avr-1804 seems liek a good buy. it is 450 at good guys right now. I am trying to find a review for it but it is hard.

hi, there are windows there and we will have two large leather chairs in that section of the room like a reading room kind of. The thing is that little nook was made 50 years ago with the house so it is kind of the "TV spot". I am starting to think I will have to have one speaker ceiling...

I think the tv will be a 36 inch. Will it really make that much of a difference having the left speaker be 3 behind the center and right speaker. I think if I used speakers stands it would make a wall of sound giving the effect of one huge center channel rather than a left and right front...

I have the JBL NSP (northridge) set. I will be doing 6.1 with the JBL 10 inch sub.

After reading all this I have a question as a newbie, I am thinking about getting the 2802 from dakmart who said he warranites it for a year. If I want to make the jump to 7.1 in a few years what will I need to do? Buy a new amp for each channel or just the rear one that woudl be split?

What do you recomend? Could you tell me where it should be. Will it make that huge of a difference? The TV is set in that postion for the future. But I am trying to avoid speakers on the ceiling.
