    Is breaking in a Plasma for 100+ hrs a myth?

    I have read on "other" forums to get the best performance from a plasma is to break it in with a special DVD at lower settings for its first 100+ hours. Have any of you done this? Have any of you not bothered and had no problems with your plasma?

    are Paramount and universal sticking with hd-dvd exclusively?

    Forgive me if this has already been asked. But will Paramont and Universal continue releasing movies on HD-DVD (and SD-DVD) only? If so, I don't think HD-DVD will be completely dead.

    Optoma HD70 affordable 16x9 40-50 inch screen???

    Thanks for the reply Jim. I posted some pictures below. What I really wanna do is put a screen in front of my old CTR TV pictured below. Just use a simple stand for the screen on my stand pictured below. Then for daytime (it gets bright in my room during the day with the window) and...

    Optoma HD70 affordable 16x9 40-50 inch screen???

    Yes, thats right. In the 40 to 50 inch range. My current situation I will only be sitting apprx 6 and a half feet from the screen. My living situation will probably change in the next year and then I plan on upgrading to a larger screen, so I'd like to get something affordable in the above size...

    I have not seen a new DLP in that size range for quite some time. And I wish Sony and JVC would get on it for some SXRD's in that size range!!!

    No threads for The Black Donnellys?

    Shocked there are no threads on this highly underrated show. It was quietly released this week. Anyone else pick it up? Its listed as having a DTS soundtrack, but on my copy, no DTS. Not a huge concern since the overall soundtrack does not have a very active mix (except the music) but just...

    NuVision Televisions -- good product?

    I've seen some very good reviews lately on not only the DLP LED (in the most recent issue of Sound And Vision), and on few web pages of their 42 inch LCD as well, though it is priced at $2300 Thought I'd give this thread a bump since it has been a while. Discuss...

    Denon DP-300F Turntable

    Good question. Would anything above the $40 Grado black be overkill on the DP-300F?

    Denon DP-300F Turntable

    Yeah, my dealer highly recommends using a $40 Grado Black cartridge with it. Said it will dramatically improve the sound.

    Advice on getting a 40-42" 1080p LCD

    Amazon had some good reviews on it. Mixed reviews on AVS forum. Some complained about a green tint problem, while others did not notice it. I saw it at Best Buy and it looked superb, better than the other displays, though they were feeding it Batman Begins HD-DVD, and all the other TV's were...

    universal remotes

    I still use my Marantz remote that came with my Marantz AV9000 (circa 2000) which is the exact same remote as the Mark II remote. Still in love w/the remote, operates everything w/ease, and they can be had pretty cheap on eBay.
