I'll let you know if he turns it down! Thanks!

Thanks Jeff. I will ask $500. I am hopeful to move up to the PLV-Z2000 1080p projector. The $300 rebate ends at the end of January.

My friend is interested in purchasing my trusty (and babied) Z3. Comes from a non-smoking home. Was ceiling mounted in a dedicated home theater and works 100%. Filters cleaned very regularly. No bad spots or pixels. Comes with Box, Remote, and all other items. Originally purchased from...

Now $750

For sale is my trusty (and babied) Z3. Comes from a non-smoking home. Was ceiling mounted in a dedicated home theater and works 100%. Pix here: http://www.nwtownsends.smugmug.com/g...83958#78443362 http://www.nwtownsends.smugmug.com/g...83958#35338023 Comes with Box, Remote, and all...

Any thoughts on this set? Anyone have it? It is now available for $3400! Course my other alternative is Samsung 63" or Pioneer 60"...

How about your choice between the WD-57831 and the WD-5772? Is the extra $700 worth it?

Well, no experience with the Z5, but I love my Z3. The Z5 is the 5th generation of the venerable Z series. I bet it rocks for the price...

After checking out that ad and reading the fine print and checking his feedback, I'd be inclined to think it is not a scam, but it is most likely a "Gray Market" product.... Just meaning it may or may not actually be covered by the manufacturer's warranty. I would check with someone in the know...

OK, thanks for the tip(s)!

OK, The HT has met with numerous delays & now another possible delay... During drywalling, my contractor was going to leave a section of my speaker wires uncovered since they are labled in that location. Well, he covered them up! So, now I have 14 pairs of cables with no labels at the rack...

From where Arsh?

It's crazy the way consumer electronics prices have dropped so much recently. Cabling is way too expensive in retail stores IMO. Usually going online will get you much better pricing, but you have to know what to look for. I usually ask around and then shop online for specific items or from...

Great! Thanks!

Using either the Panasonic AE700U or Sanyo PLV-Z3, if I opt to take the video from the DVD player (Pioneer 59AVi, Denon 2910/3910, etc.) to the PJ via HDMI, will I be able to also take the sound from the DVD player to the reciever via optical or will the use of HDMI prohibit this being that HDMI...

Hey RichardCoh, on my Toshiba 57HDX82 TV, the 1080i is better. This may be due to the fact that the TV upconverts to 1080i anyway. So, Muneeb is right... It totally depends on your equipment and source material. My TV will accept both signals but the 1080i picture is more detailed and sometimes...

How about audio via HDMI? If I use the HDMI to connect to the Sanyo Z3 projector, will I be able to send the audio to the receiver via optical (Toslink)? I've recently read where some players try to send all audio and video via HDMI. Any suggestions on a HDMI capable player that does not block...

Thanks all!

Thanks guys! You finalized my speaker search! I love Energy speakers and was considering them, among many, to use in my HT. This awesome deal sealed it. I bought a pair. Luckily I work in Washington (and live in Idaho) so they were able to ship them to my work address. Now for the rest of the C...

Thanks for the info Dan. I'll make some phone calls. The other problem is not being able to purchase equipment in person. Most companies do not want to sell via online or phone... One disadvantage of living in a smaller town. John S... Sometimes I wish the room were smaller! I have thought...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I am familiar with, and like, the KEF line but I haven't found anyone who carries them. Dan, where did you get yours? I will also research the others. This is a pretty good time to be buying HT speakers even though there are so many out there, the prices are...

I am considering adding the JVC HMDH5U D-VHS deck to my soon to be finished home theater. I know D-VHS hasn't taken the HT world by storm but are they still viable? Are movies still being made for them? I noticed some titles are going for ridiculous amounts online so I thought that may indicate...

Vishal Shah, those BIC's are tempting. Do you have them?

Sweet. Thanks. I added up my current speaker choices and here is what I have: Klipsch Synergy III series 7.1 = $1929 from BBuy Infinity Kappa series 7.1 = $3202 from Internet Salk HTS series 7.0 = $3900 + SVS sub = $4900 Factoring in the cost of the receiver, PJ, DVD and cabling, I...

OK, getting down to the nitty gritty before I start purchasing my HT equipment. (My room is about 33Lx22Wx8H). So far, I am planning on using the Sanyo PL-Z3 projector with a Pioneer VSX-56TXi and a Pioneer 47AVi player. Speakers have been the biggest hold up. So, I really like the Salk MTM...

I'm wondering too. They are marketed as both "Floor Standing" and "Perfect for your flat panel TV". They are using 5.25" drivers, so I would think they will be OK... Here is a link to them if you need it: http://www.klipsch.com/media/Products/1.RVX-54.pdf[/url]

How about VGA cable? Any limits there? (Should've asked this too....)

Good to know! Thanks for the response.

Would I have any problems with a long DVI cable run from my HTPC (containing a X800XT AIW) to my projector which I estimate will be about 25 feet away? Thanks!

Wow, I like that first one (second is nice too but is 6x the cost...). Thanks for all the advice everyone!
