Jason, I had the same problem on my XBOX. Got DD sound but it was all static and garbled. Sounded horrible. Anyway, returned it and got a replacement and fixed everything up.

Ron, tiny little clarification. At the opening of the disk it is not a Spinosaurus that peeks through the III scratch marks it is a Raptor. I know really lame complaint, should not even waste anyone's time with it. :rolleyes

I know this is a GC thread but I am having the same problem with my x-box. I have to play Halo in my master beadroom with all the lights off and the blinds closed. My family room with the HT is way too bright. I will have to try turning up the brightness. Just glad to hear that it is not...

I missed recording #6. I was sure that they would show them all back to back after the last episode but they never did. I have not seen any advertisements that they are going to show them all again. Anyone know?

oh, that's right. My dad got the new 720. I am still waiting for him to make up his mind if he is gonna keep it so I can pick up his old one.. :)

I doubt you will have any problems with standing waves :) hehehehe

Jamie, is that the Elite Pro-710 television? Funny that my dad just bought his Saturday and is getting it today. That seems like a really good price. I will have to find out what he paid for it. Although I think it was more than that. I am going to be buying his 5 year old Elite Pro-118...

What is so bad about stealing the Nazi stuff? I wouldn't even consider it stealing. I don't want to get off on a tangent so I will just say that the Allied soldiers were entitled to anything the Nazis had. The Nazis probably got half their stuff from the Jews anyway. What should have happend...

What is the word on the DVD? I thought I read previously in the thread that HBO "currently did not have plans" to release the DVD any time soon. Can anyone shed any light on the subject? ------------------

Jamie, now you are going to get alot of "these speakers are better than those speakers". I would not buy any speaker on any one persons suggestions. True Energy's are great speakers, Klipsch are great speakers, there are many great speakers. But go out to your local HT store and demo some...

Jamie, I can't comment on the veritas, but for $1700 each you can get a killer pair of def tech bp3000 or something there about. And they ain't no slouchers either. :)

Jamie, I had a pair of Klipsch 5.5 towers that consisted of 2 10" woofers and a horn. This pair was about 5 years old and was a relly good match with my Denon. Klipsch speakers are very effecient, my brother was runing some B&W bookshelfs with his Denon that was the same as mine. He would have...

Jamie, I agree with Nathan. I would go with the 6.1 discrete for sure. That is a pretty big room you have there so you are gonna need some pretty hefty speakers as well as a pretty powerful receiver. My buddy just got that Denon 4802 and really loves it. I have an older 3200, my...

Historical Question: Were the concentration camps and work camps not widely known until after the war? The soldiers came across the camp and were surprised by it. I had thought that those camps were known during the majority of the war, but this does not seem to be the case.

Thanks for the clarification Patrick. Who is Dennis? Don't Stone me now!!! :)

Ron, that is one of the nicest theaters I have seen in awhile. Just beautifull. Not gawdy, but very elegant. I am getting ready to begin work on mine in the next couple weeks, hopefully, and might have to "borrow" some ideas. Too bad I can't borrow your high ceilings. Again, much respect...

What I was envisioning was a layer of soundboard, then a layer of drywall, then the bottom half of the wall or so would be covered with that soundproofing fabric. With 2X6 plates and staggering the studs and insulating on the inside. Does this sound adequate?

Would you do the same with wood. But some sort of adhesive to keep the rock from vibrating against the stud? Also I hear alot of people using double layers of drywall. One layer of sound board and then another layer of regular drywall. Does the drywall go on last? What is the difference...

I have noticed that a couple of people have used metal studs for their HT. What are the pros/cons of using these? I know they are much cheaper but I would think that they would rattle and be more difficult to deal with when trying to screw the drywall to them?

Are there 10 or 14 episodes? I have heard both numbers.

Where can I find out more info on the 721? ------------------

Wouldn't it be great if we could get the old THX WOW laserdisc on DVD!!!! Man I would love to get my hands on that. Makes me wanna go out and get a LD player just for that disc...... ------------------

I have had one now for about 4 months and am getting a great picture. Better than my standard 2800 box up in the bedroom. ------------------

what is a discreet code?? ------------------

Johnny, it seemed like they did this last time. My offer ended April 30th, then the started another deal 2-3 weeks later. You may want to hold on and see if the do another. BTY, I got my $199 rebate check a couple days ago. So it did take like 8 weeks, but it did go through. ------------------

I got my Dish Network setup from dbs-sales.com back in April. They had the best prices around. Should be getting my $200 rebate soon. I would go through them again, as well as recomend them. ------------------

I get a problem like the no picture you are mentioning. I am navigating through the menu and then select a show and het enter. It goes to that channel but I just get a black screen. I have to go to the next channel and then back to get the picture to pop up. I get it about once a week...

It looks like DBS-Sales (or whatever they are called) has a "PVR-501 System / 2800 Receiver " combo for $220. So after my $200 rebate the whole system will only cost me $20+$25 S&H. Looks like a great incentive for me to dump cable. ------------------

Great review Ken. I was just looking to find some info on this dish as I am about to make the jump into DSS, and this one caught my eye. I have one question. If I record a DD movie off Starz and then play it back will it be in DD? Same goes for if I pause the movie will it resume in DD...

Thanks for the info guys. ------------------
