26 looks no replys. ouch. anyone... My new amp purchase is still up in the air.....

I am looking for a 12 channel amp and trying to determine which of the 3 is the best unit in terms of quality and reliability: Speakercraft BB-1235 Niles SI-1235, Sonance 1250 or 1230. If I left a brand or model I should be considering please let me know. (i.e Russound, but I am not too fond of...

No responses to my first post so I guess I need to reword my post and subject. Looking for advice on RCVR to power 3 pairs of speakers through an ADS speaker selector and another pair of boston acoustic grand voagers for my back yard. With a $400 budget I was thinking it might be better to get a...

As a follow up. It's now Sunday morning and no one ever called to let me know what happened yesterday. First thing on Monday I will be calling Cablevision to hook back up my Internet and phone, and then to DTV to cancel my cancel order! DONT GET FIOS I am in Bergen County NJ.....

While a current verizon customer for 2 weeks, I cannot wait to leave! I don't even know where to begin with the issues there are so many. First they couldn't install all 3 services in the same day because I had to go through a "win back" program and was told I had to order the 3 services...

To make the situation even harder to decide, the reviews on the 72HM196 make the decsion even harder. I can basically get them all for about the same price depending on where I go. The sam 71 is about $400 more. Advice?

I thought about a Projector but it's not a dedicated room/ doubles as the family room and it's on the second floor where outside light is a problem too. It does have the perfect size to support one too at 32 x 18. The Toshiba's in one of the most recent Home Theater publications just got top...

Randy, def don't go with Toshiba. They don't have 1080p, they are trying to deceive the public my their short coming of only being able to produce 1080i, and have named their "Light Engine 1080p". I have lost all respect for Toshiba as a company now (and I have 2 Toshiba's one is a 57" I am...

I am in the final stages of a decision to purchase a new DLP set. I have decided to go with a Samsung but torn between the HL-S6767 and the HL-S7178. Besides the 4" size difference is there are major difference to warrant a $500 difference? FYI the 67" is from Costco, so it comes with...

Mit and dust issues? This is the first I am hearing of it and now must to my due diligence to look into the issue further. Can anyone elaborate on the issue further? I thought I was just about "there" in a decision but now this puts another wrench into the situation. Here is where I am...

Greg, is there any reason in particular you would suggest Mit over Toshiba?

Gary, Glad to hear there are others in my boat. We can start a "Buyers remorse club!" I told my wife I wanted to go to Costco today to make another run at tv comparisons. She was floored. "You want to go with me to Costco". Funny thing is that it only took he about 30 seconds to realize why I...

What ever TV I choose I hope Costco carries it. Their prices may be a bit higher then the local stores but their prices include the stand and their warranty is bar none. Otherwise I will have to pay $300 to $500 for an extended warranty, where Costco I can take the TV back for any reason "if I...

Ok, listen to what a Sales person (Manager I know very well at a local store who I purchased most of my equipment from over the years) told me last night. I was considering putting it in it's own post. The Sales Manager actually told me to pass on both DLP and LYCOS! "We are constantly...

I spent the last 2 nights visiting all the different electronic stores in my area to obtain "eyes on" analysis of various 65" plus models. As Joe recommended in his post, the Samsung was extremely surprising. The only TV which looked to produce an image on par with it (if not better) was the...

I stand corrected. I'll have to look into JVC now as well. I wish there was a clear cut answer for best 65 to 73" tv, but I understand it does become a bit subjective. That would be too easy too. So based on responses I should go either Sony or JVC. I might have to give this more time becuase I...

JVC? Not to be negitive on JVC, but I never hear anything postive about their TV's.Can they really stack up to sony, mit, or toshiba? From my experiancs in the past JVC would be under those mentioned (which I could be wrong and if so I am sure someone will call me on it)

It's interesting that so far mostly only Sony customers have been responding. One question that I have found is that 1080p can be questionable. Do these tv's actually post 1080P not just 1080i. I have read that Toshiba advertising is misleading and they do not have 1080p but their "engine" is...

I am in the market to replace my Toshiba 57" TV with a new 1080 70" plus set. I have been researching and still not sure which tv to move forward with any suggestions? The ratings on the Mitsubishi WD-65831 might sway me to consider going with a 65 but I would prefer to stay with 70" or above...

I know you indicate frim, but if you are willing to go to $150 plus shipping I might be interested. I have a 5.1 set up with the 2.1's as my rear sounds now. I am looking into adding them as the second set of surrounds for 7.1. Not 100% sure but if you dont find any takers and I can add them we...

Who makes it? I see one from "Dayton" but don't know anything about them as a MFG. There is also "Audioplex", which I don't know either. Anyone know about these systems? What about Sonance?

I recently maxed out my Denon receiver by adding my 4th pair of speakers. I am looking at advice to add a speaker select system that would give me more control over what speakers are playing. FYI- This unit only powers 3 pairs of speakers in my living room, dining room, kitchen, den, and...

I am in the process of looking for new outdoor speakers under $600. About a year ago I listened to the Boston Acoustics Grand Voyagers and loved them, only to put off the purchase to this summer. Now they have been discontinued (with the Voyager 7's taking their place) and was wondering if there...

Dean and Arthur, Thanks for the responses. $3,000 is about my max and hope to get a 42" in that range, any higher is hard to justify for a bedroom TV. I need the 42" becuase it will be about 15 to 18' from my head postion to the wall where the TV will be located. A smaller screen might be hard...

I am currently in the process of looking for a 42" TV for my bedroom. At this point I can't decide if I should look at either Plasma or LCD. The reason I have narrowed my search between these two is that I want to mount the TV on the wall at the foot of my bed to save space. The concern I...

Joe, The funny thing is that I puchased a Sonance Volume control to use already, but then realized I needed another amp. to power the speakers. That's when using the car stero idea came to mind. The second issue is the amount of wire I would need to get from my main unit to the outside. Easily...

I am looking for advice on setting up an outdoor sound system. I was wondering if anyone has either considered, or currently uses a car stereo deck to power your system? Taking this approach, it would give me the flexibility of not having to go inside the house to control the volume or channels...

Richard, thanks. Finally a repsonse. I have been looming like a shark waiting for a response.

After what seems to be endless posts here the conclusion for what I am looking for: To add speakers to my Living Room and Dining room might be best resolved using a separate receiver rather than adding an amp to my current HT set-up to power more speakers. I like this option becuase it will also...
