Burn in affects the tubes not the screen, so it would not be visible with the tv turned off. Maybe the image was burned into your eyes and not the screen. In a darkened room, staring at a brightly lit screen, the image will imprint on your eyes...like staring at the sun then you see a big bright...

hey I just clicked the tulmult link in the previous post then clicked the link there to get to their main sub driver page...that woofer next to the tulmult looks mighty familiar

hey

I ordered my 20-39 PC+ on X-mas day...I wouldn't have expected them to do anything that day, I recieved my tracking number today, I work Monday and Tuesday and will finagle the rest of the week off from my boss. Fortunatly its the slow time of year in my industry, so I'll get plenty of playtime...

I've been on Kaaza all day....great songs. I was amazed at how many are already in my collection. Heres one from The Red Hot Chili Peppers, album: One Hot Minute, song: Shallow Be Thy Game To anyone who's listenin' You're not born into sin The guilt they try and give you Puke it in...

I'm sure this has been posted or a thread has been started to this effect before...greatest lines, passages in MUSIC history...that covers all variations of the theme. The holidays always bring old friends and memories to town. This one's been running through my head all day :

In the past few months,(have searched, came up empty), it seems to me I clicked a link in these very pages that talked about a DVD-Audio/SACD player that Denon is/was going to un-leash on the masses. If I remember correctly the link took me to a Denon Corp. page. Is this unit available? Anyone...

While of course DTS or DD is the preferred format Many of my 'digital' cable channels broadcast a Dolby 2.0 signal, which I use traditional Pro Logic to decode into surround. I know the center channel is culled from the two front channels by taking the shared information from each channel and...

Thanks Tom...The date of August 25, on the article threw me a little. I guess if I had actually read the woofer designation I would have noticed that all the pertinent was already on your site. Two payments left on the new tv...be calling you guys soon. Thanks again!!

Are the Ultra's shipping with the new drivers yet? If not any word on when they will? This will be my gift to myself this X-mas. I was completly prepared to go with the new self-powered sub, but after reading the "listening review" from Paul at Home Theater Spot my mind has been changed,yet again.

I'm only now starting to seriously consider HDTV, just having got my first 'ready' model. The inherant distrust of "the cable guy" is one of the reasons I havn't bought a STB already. Plus with over 50 commericial free movie channels, I'm at like 110$ a month for tv, that look just incredible on...

The people at my local office assure me that their system passes the HD signal through if its being broadcast. For cable channels this should be no problem, as they all come to a local satalite for distribution along the network, but the local channels are captured by an antenna and fed into the...

Have you visited or posted at Hometheaterspot.com there are alot of real 'tweekers' over there with an extensive knowledge of many products. They even have a Hitachi-only board. If you havn't been there, go.

Would I be correct in assuming TWC is Time Warner Cable, and that you are renting a box from them for cable use? Or am I compleatly off?

When Uma walked up to the bartender after being rejected by "the guy" and asked "What's wrong with me?" my heart ripped in two. That kind of honesty and self-realization scares me. But as you pointed out, the film left the potential un-realized....we don't know what happens next. I believe the...

I kinda watch...basically because its on before Stargate......F#$% YOU SHOWTIME.....LOST MY 5.1 BECAUSE OF YOU BASTARDS!!!!(is Sci-Fi in 5.1 on satalite anybody?) although I'm warming to O5. Is this the masterbater from 'The Breakfast Club'? I kinda dig the squint-eyed, bug-eyed look he's got...

Both tv's will give you an excellent picture I'm sure. With the Sony you'll get a slightly larger picture but less control,calibration, etc. options than you'll get with the Tosh.. I've spent the last year on the debate of which RPTV to get. No-one wants to get ripped a new one, or feel that...

I'm on Adelphia Digital in Central Virginia. According to the people on the phone we're one of their 'premire' systems, recieving all they have to offer. About 2 years ago they replaced every inch of line in the county...I am a lineman for the county...sorry, broke into song there. Except the...

I just recently bought the Sony 51" wide screen HDTV-ready tv. And while I get an awesome picture with DVD's I kinda feel my cable system is lacking. I may not really be telling the whole story...my 'digital' channels are superb, i.e. HBO,SHOWTIME,STARZ,MAX...although no 5.1 from Max at all...a...

Basically the heading says it all. I'd be looking at the comparable size Pci Plus vrs. the Ultra. Although the on-board amp is a nice feature and actually provides more power than the Sampson 1000, just look at the woofer the Ultra houses. I'm sure its just astetics but to me the normal PC...

Hold out for the 57H82, its basically the 57HX81 with the addition of 720p and DVI "upgradability". What ever the hell that is....DVI and "upgradability", that is. I've been around the block and back over RPTV's and althought Toshiba often gets slammed in these pages for some of their...

Because of the lay-out of my room..kit,dining room, living room all-in-one..and the fact that both my sig other and me each require an entire couch for comfortable viewing.....not at all obese, but couch potato's like to stretch out their eyes.... we sit at staggered distances, she at 8.5', me...

I had pretty much decided on the Toshiba 57H82.. based on a friends 42H81..which is impressive in quality, but today I was in Sears and happened to find myself astonished at the picture they were getting on the Hitachi 53UWX10B. Its slightly smaller than the Tosh and slightly more expensive(at...

At any rate...if you're interested....Consumer-Direct.com now has the 50H82 listed for 1879.95. They're in Raleigh, N.C., so east coast shipping is fast and reasonable. A friend of mine got his 42H81 from these guys and had rave reviews about them. I'm holding out for the 57H82...I like the...

Good Luck figuring all THAT out! I have to say I'm some what pissed at the move to Sci-Fi....not only do I now have commercial interruption, but I no longer get it in Dolby Digital 5.1.....that really sucks!!! Does Sci-Fi broadcast digital sound on a satalite system? I'm on Adelphia Digital...

NEVER EVER buy from the Amazon Z-shops- the used stuff. They promise the same service and guarantees as if it was purchased through them but IMO it just isn't there. I purchased a dvd and after not seeing it for a couple of weeks, often individuals ship faster than corps, I sent an e-mail to the...

Cool packaging, I actually pre-orderd from DVDEmpire.com and arrived home on the release date to find it on my porch waiting for me. So cooool!

I'm with you man! I called Adelphia , my cable provider, and the rep knew nothing about it. I knew MTV was advertising 2 new channels...HITS and JAMS, but I didn't think I'd lose the one cool video channel I get. I told Adelphia to put me in the 'dissatisfied' column.

I could use my space in this forum to gripe and moan, but I think I'll just say this: I myself prefer OAR, some don't. Both should be available, on seperate disc preferably for quality and compression issues, and to provide space for a DTS soundtrack. I WILL NOT buy a disc that does not...
