In the market for a used A/V receiver with at least 50 watts (RMS) per channel that has A/B speaker switching. Looking for Onkyo, HK and Denon makes. Willing to buy at reasonable price or trade my current receiver, HK AVR-310, which works beautifully just doesn't have A/B switching. If...

forget it... I'm still recovering from last night. :b $3500 in title

Ralph, we have no price that I can see. Thanks, B

I'm looking to purchase one of these for my parents and needed to make sure they have a few essential features. From what I read on the specs sheet of Onkyo's website the 502 has: A/B speaker switching component switching DSP for "all channel stereo" Can anyone out there confirm all...

Thi, UGM sir. Thanks, Brian

Thanks Lito. Unfortunately the budget on this project is pretty small so they won't be an option but I appreciate your reply. I went over last night the the house and so far we now all agree that no speakers will be installed in the ceiling. Just doesn't make much sense for a lot of work...

Once again Brad, we agree. I knew it would be hard to convince her with bookshelf sized speakers but maybe I can sway her with smallish satellite speakers. I'm going to give that a try before I go through all the trouble installing the in-ceiling speakers. One last idea did occur to me...

Thanks Wayne for the reply. I know you guys are right. Unfortunetly my mother has given strict orders to my father and I not to install any speaker (in-wall or other wise) on her front wall. I have tried to convince her that properly installed in-wall speakers can be painted and are...

Thanks for the reply Brad. I agree by the way. Trying to imagine what the speakers will sound like is tough. I guess I could hold them in place temporarily somehow and give them a listen before cutting holes into drywall. We will be using scaffolding to install the high speakers so it's...

Well it's a large size room IMO at about 20X25 with sloped cathedral-type ceiling and open floor plan. My father asked me to help him install surround sound in this room with two requirements... It has to be pretty cheap to do and only in-wall or in-ceiling speakers will do. My main...

Country Wide customer for 5 years and very satisfied. We had our first mortgage with them and just re-financed with CW a year ago. I've had nothing but good dealings with Country Wide employees and I do apprecaite the online account access and payment options. :emoji_thumbsup:

Real good info here on "ick". Hope this helps. Brian

Thanks Evan, I appreciate your post. I just went ahead and turned on all the high def settings and everything appears to be working fine so far. I only have a few games so haven't run into the potential problem you spoke of. Thanks again. If anyone else can add to this please feel free...

Hey all, I need assistance with properly setting up an XBOX with the Hitachi 51S500 HD RPTV. The way the TV manual reads to me is that it natively supports 480i, 540p and 1081i formats but that it will "upsample" 480p and 720p sources to 1080i format to display. So, when setting up my XBOX...

Is this sold?

Rudy, YGM. Thanks, Brian [email protected]

Thanks Lee... I apprecaite your objectiveness. ;) Anyone else?

I ordered a HK AVR-325z from Harman Audio a month ago and just shipped it back last week due to it going directly into protection mode. I was informed yesterday that I won't even get shipping information on the replacement AVR-325 till Sept. 1st so I contacted HK customer service and let them...

We just recently went through this with our dog last week. Darren's suggestion is actually what I found from a few reputable online sources. The only thing to consider when using the solution mentioned above, was that it is a fairly harsh solution and should not be used anywhere near your...

Yeah, It's a shame I didn't check Best Buy's price one more time before ordering from audioadvisor.com... AudioAdvisor had them on a great sale for a few weeks now for $399.99 a pair with free shipping so I ordered from them. Low and behold I happened to check the BB website and saw that...

I don't know how accurate these pictures really are but still interesting to look at. http://thehollywoodextra.com/honda/honda.html Can anyone, "in-the-know" comment on these? Thanks, Brian

Thanks, I apprecaite the replies. I have a HK 310 and really like it, so I'm kinda partial to the HK line myself.

Good day all... I have been tasked with putting together a budget HT setup for my parents and I'm having difficulty deciding on an A/V receiver. The only requirements that I'm looking for are: Under $400.00 price tag (non-negotiable money cap) Component Video Switching Solid movie surround...

:angry: well the set just shut off on me a second time the other night. It happened just as I described before with the exception I was doing basic video adjustments with the AVIA disk when the TV powered off/on. I'm calling Sears again to have them deliver yet another set. I'll try to...

I apologize for the delay... The 4th 51S500 TV was delivered about 9 days ago. :rolleyes:The 3rd set had acceptable picture but the delivery guys ripped off a 4 inch half-moon section of the bottom outside cabinet so we immediately asked they deliver another set. This is becoming a long...

Thanks Raasean.

I went to: http://www.hbo.com/rock/?ntrack_para1=feat_sec1_image# and clicked on the promos for the new Chris Rock Comedy Special, "Never Scared" and the background beat sounds so familiar but I cannot think of the artist or actual song. Do you know? Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the replies. I neglected to mention in the original post that I have done the basic video adjustments using the AVIA disk. While the picture quality was some-what improved with those adjustments the problems i noted still remained. This is actually my second Hitachi set from...

I purchased a Hitachi 51S500 from Sears less than 30 days ago and before the "unconditional" return policy runs out I wanted to run these issues by my fellow HTF members. Please take a look at this graphic: http://img47.photobucket.com/albums/...13/hitachi.jpg I made this image real...
