    Locking power button on TOS 50H82?

    Initial search couldn't find anything... Have a Toshiba 50H82, you can "lock" all of the front panel buttons EXCEPT for the power button. Well, my one year old can't seem to escape the allure of that button. Real fun to watch TV when you have to keep getting off the couch to snatch that little...

    New plate amp question

    I've got an Infinity BU-120 150W sub with a blown amp module that seems to be no longer manufactured. The rest of the sub is in excellent condition. I know that if I buy a new amp from PE, I'll have the problem of finding one to fit perfectly or covering up the hole left by the old one. If I opt...

    Repair Infinity BU-120 or replace?

    I have a 4 year old Infinity BU-120 150w sub (originally about $400)that quit working. I pulled it apart and found a blown capacitor. Researching here I found that this is a known issue with this sub. I bought the C6 cap repair kit through Harman for only $11 including shipping. My FIL and I...

    Moisture behind screen on TOS 50in RP

    Had my Toshiba 50" WS RP since January and love it, but unfortunately, just yesterday I noticed in one corner it looks like I've got moisture behind the screen! Any ideas what would cause that? Don't have any humidity problem in the house. Is there an easy way for me to get to the back of the...

    Main speakers beside TV?

    Any rule of thumb about how far unshielded mains need to be away from a RPTV? Getting the 50 incher tomorrow and trying to get the logistics of where everything is going to fit!

    50HXD82 vs. 50H82?

    Probably been discussed ad nauseum, but the search function is down. What's the major diff b/w these two? BB has a 2-year finance plan that's hard to pass up, but they only have the 50H82. Would I be missing out on a lot with that model?

    Powering a passive sub with an old receiver?

    I've seen mention of doing this here and I never thought about it until my brother said he was upgrading his receiver and doesn't have the budget for a new powered sub. I'm not quite sure how you would accomplish this. The idea is quite simple, but just not sure of the logistics. Help?

    Another newbie interconnect question

    When hooking up a DVD with a 5.1 decoder to a digital ready receiver, can you use 3 sets of 2 cables or do you need 6 individual cables? All of the signals should be the same, right?

    S-video direct from DVD to TV?

    May be a silly question, but what's the purpose of sending the video signal from your DVD player through the receiver then on to the TV? Why not send it straight to the TV? The reason I ask is that I know that S-vid is better than composite. My receiver doesn't have any S-vid i/o's, but my TV...

    DVD player with DD/DTS decoder

    Relative newbie to this, what player would you recommend (around $250) with onboard DD/DTS decoders? I was hoping to get the RP61, but since that's nixed, what now? Should I wait a couple months till new models come out? Here's my setup: Technics SA-AX730 Digital Ready JBL N-28s all around...
