    How much would an Amp help?

    Depending on which amp you buy...yes! For music most people use seperates, preamp/amp and two very good speakers. I use a Denon 3600 and POA-5200 amp. I also have a Denon 370 CD player and Boston VRM -60 Speakers. I went with this setup because I wanted a system dedicated to music. I don't...

    How much would an Amp help?

    I own a Yammy 3000. The reason I went with the 3000 was it use Burr-Brown processors for the front L/R speakers. This was a tremendous improvement in sound quality over cheaper Yammy's that did not the Burr-Brown DAC's. Unfortunatlely you will never reach music nirvana with HT receiver. My...

    Aspect Ratio Control on DVD players

    Are there any DVD players under $400 that will allow you to adjust the aspect ratio of the picture. New players seem to have the 3:2 pull down, but it's fixed. Thanks

    Yamaha DVD-C920

    Chris, Panasonic players have a great reputation on the video side, as they don't show the chroma bug.

    AppleBees Riblettes

    Exactly what part of the pig constitutes calling a piece of meat "riblette". Is it a baby rib, or developed in a food processing lab by mad food scientist? Anyway, when watching the Packers this week try eating some real tailgate food.

    I survived yet another round of lay-offs.

    Just got laid off from that giant soft drink company who's signature beverage goes quite well with Rum and Jack Daniels. Anyway, I was only there for a year. Four months after I started my position went away and rumors of layoffs were ramp-id. Took almost 10 months for it to happen. Now I just...

    What are THEY saying about your HT?

    That has to be the dumbest question people ask when they see my HT. "About how much would cost for me to do this?" You know good and well you have to have a passion for this, otherwise $100 would be too much for some people. I just say enjoy it, and if your really interested I'll know and then I...

    New Pictures of my HT, check it out...

    As far as sound is concerned there are a couple improvements that can be made and one that I will have to deal with. The L/R surrounds are 2-way di-pole and too close to the rear wall. This was the only location for them due to the large entrance to the bar. The sound often echoes off the tile...

    Jayson, I will be very interested in seeing the final results. It looks like you are putting a lot of planning into this one. My walls were up so I had to fish the speaker wires and electrical for the lighting through the walls. Very time consuming. The only other item left for me to add is...

    It's a partial basement, around 500 sq feet. The builders just put up dry wall, carpeted the entire area and included zone heating and air. A door leads to a three car garage and stairs behind the movie posters. I extended the room 22" in to the garage for the in wall look. I added all the...

    Setting up speaker distance using ms with a Yamaha 3000

    From what I recall 1ms is equal to 1.1 feet of distance. Why does the Yamaha 3000 on allow a setting of up to 5ms for the center channel???? I may be confused with this process, I'm use to a Denon which you can use meters or feet. My center channel is 12ft from the sweet spot and my LR/RR is...

    Dish network and the Toshiba 50h81

    Daved, I also have the 56h80 and the technician is correct. Before I purchased the RCA HiDef box with component connections, I was using a regular box with a s-video connection. The picture was horrible!!! Now I'm no expert, but I beleive it has somthing to do with the amont of resolution...

    DirecTV NFL Package in HD????

    Question....any word on whether or not they will be broadcasting any games in HDTV. Reason I ask, when WGN out of Chicago began to broadcast an HDTV signal DTV picked it up on channel 199 for one game. I realize that this is a local bradcast out of Chicago, but why can't they give us feeds...
