Nearing the completion of my HT, I have broken down a list of different hardware that I'am looking to purchase...I just need your inputs on which would be better:
Receiver: Pioneer VSX-49TX Elite
Receiver: Kenwood VR-5900 Receiver
Receiver: Denon AVR-5800
I need a...
Congrats! I'am remodeling a game room on the 3rd floor of my house into a home theater. I've got most of the construction aspect finished. I've painting 90% of the room but gesh...with the molding, trim, etc...takes forever to paint! After painting will come the wires, stands, mounts, etc then...
I just have a quick quesiton. I'am currently looking at a NEC LT150 projector and a Panasonic RP56 DVD player and have a few questions..as always
#1. How do I hook up the DVD player with component outputs to the projector? Is there a component->RGB connector? If so, where can I order one...
I've been in the computer field quite some time, and usually have several powerhouses in the office and at home. I keep seeing people talk about building computers specifically for HT...but why? I know about the pretty good ATI Radeon, DVD players, Soundblaster Live!, and all the good multimedia...
Thanks a million for all the responses. I've broked down a couple of different options I'am going for, and if you wouldn't mind commenting, critizing, or telling me hey..something is missing...feel free
VCR: Panasonic PV-VS4820
DVD: Pioneer DV37 Elite
Receiver: Pioneer...
I've been looking to either a Sony projector, or a Toshiba 65H81. The bad thing about the Toshiba is the size. I would be putting it on the 3rd floor, so as you can see a 6x6/400+ pound TV would be a challenge. Does anyone know of the 65' incher comes "apart"? I know that some of the bigger TV's...
Thanks for the suggestion on the Sony unit. I've never had much experience with projectors. I plan on putting the unit on the ceiling about 10-15FT from the screen. Would that be any problem? How hard is it to align the unit to the screen to get a good picture? What kind of inputs does the unit...
I've narrowed my list of receivers to two. Which one would you prefer?
Harmon Kardon AVR 7000
or
Pioneer VSX-37TX ELITE
The Pioneer has a better feature set, but the HK has got pretty good marks too. Could someone elaborate more on "Logic 7"?
I'am currently building my home theater and have a few questions. First, how do you determine when a TV is TOO small for a HT? The room that I'am using is roughly 20x25-30. I plan on having 2 rows of seating. I've been looking at a 65' toshiba HDTV, but I'am concerned with not only getting it...
I'am looking for some things and wonder if you guys could help me out.
Lighting controls. I want to be able to use a remote to not only turn on/off light, but dim. Is this possible with say...a pronto as a controller?
Racks. I know you've guys probably have heard this 100000000 times, but...
I think this question would go here as I'am currently getting an equipment list as my first "dedicated" HT will be finished soon. I just have one question. I really wanted to go with a 65' Toshiba HDTV, but I wonder if projection would be better? The HT makes it a little difficult...it's on the...
Thanks for all the input guys. Yea, the CS5, for what I paid is a great center. It matches very well with the LX10 & LX5's. I've been researching on the Paradigm Monitor 7 as the mains. I really need to go and listen to them first. The LX10's IMO are still pretty good.
I currently have a decent "non dedicated" home theater in my house. I'll be moving into a 3 story home next month. So, I now have a room available for a dedicated HT. Here's the list of my current equipment and my "new" list. Do you guys see anything that I should change?
TV: Sony Wega 32'...
Hah..thought that would get your attention. Well after enjoying my simple home theater for the past year, I have the itch to upgrade. First thing first...TV. I've been looking at the Toshiba 65H80. I have NO knowledge in HDTV so that's why I'am here. If I get this TV, do I need a "HDTV...
