    Can my TV be salvaged?

    I purchased with my Best Buy card so unfortunately I probably don’t have an extended warranty via the card.

    Can my TV be salvaged?

    The repair shop guy, via email, said that he thought it might be a screen issue since the lines are vertical and horizontal so he wasn't trying to butter me up to bring it in. Plus, $10 is not much to see if it's just a faulty part. I was just curious if anyone else had seen something like...

    Can my TV be salvaged?

    So one night my TV works perfectly fine. In the morning it looks like the attached. It's a Sony 65x900c. Two months out of warranty. When I first fired it up there was only one horizontal line, but after turning it back on for a picture there were then 4 lines. There's a local place that...

    Anyone else clearing out their SD-DVDs?

    My roommate and I cleared out most of ours after the Warners announcement and we bought PS3's. I kept ones that I watch a lot (Firefly) and ones that probably won't have HD versions for quite awhile, but it was a nice way to clear out of lot of those 2 for 20 deals where you buy a movie that you...

    Has anyone gone Blu since Friday?

    After a few weeks the PS3 is still impressing me. 300, Harry Potter, The Fifth Element all look great. I think the real gem is Blade Runner. It's a steal at it's current price and the PQ is fantastic for a movie that old. My only disappointment is the lack of blu-ray releases and deals each...

    Has anyone gone Blu since Friday?

    I went Blu on Monday. After the announcment I just had to buy a PS3 and get some sort of hi-def on my newly purchased 46" Sony LCD. I only have 2 movies but I'm blown away by the quality.

    Do I need amps?

    I had a HK Sig 5 channel amp hooked up to my HK receiver in my bedroom. I thought that it was overkill for a bedroom setup, and I needed the money at the time so I sold it. While it isn't night and day by any means, I can definitely tell the difference between having it and not having it. With...

    Sub cable question

    I'm guessing I'm not going to find any specs on this sucker at the Monster site :D How expensive are digital coax cables? I have always used optical so I have no clue.

    Help!!!

    You don't need to hook your DVD player and VCR up to your receiver if you don't want to. Some of the reasons people do are: 1. If you have more connections on the receiver than on your television ie your receiver can handle three component connections but your television only handles two...

    On line

    Most large electronics companies are now selling refurbed gear through ebay, which I believe includes Pioneer. I bought a HK 430 last year through their ebay store and it had a problem of randomly turning itself off. I contacted HK, they paid the shipping, and sent me a replacement. I'd bid with...

    Sub cable question

    I have this 15 ft Monster subwoofer cable that I no longer use (was for my first setup). I was wondering if it's possible to use it for the digital coax connection from say a DVD player to a receiver. My thinking is that they are both just analog connections so it should work fine, but I figured...

    Thinking about replacing my SVS cylinder with a box?

    Well I hate to throw something else into the mix, but I would also recommend taking a look at http://www.acoustic-visions.com/. I bought a sub from them some 4 years ago and haven't really found a reason to upgrade (yet). They have many levels of subwoofers, which you can get in a variety of...

    Really lame Subwoofer cable question

    I needed a longer cable for my sub after moving and I bought one from Radioshack that is about 25 feet long. I notice no difference in sound quality over my previous 15 foot Monster cable. I don't want to start a cable debate, but IMO when it comes to subs the most important thing is a solid...

    Twin Peaks Question

    How about run times? There has to be a difference between the pilot and the pilot/movie right? Anyone happen to know how long either of them is?

    Twin Peaks Question

    I was wondering how to tell the difference between the Twin Peaks pilot movie that gives away the killer at the end, and the true pilot that is the beginning to the series? Are there any scenes or giveaways before the killer is revealed? I'd hate to watch the wrong version and then have it...
