I have panny rp 82 hooked to a hit 65swx20b

why is it that every movie I watch, about 1/2 way through or so, there is a "blip" in the movie or a brief pause. last movie I saw was from netflix - the bourne identity - and at this quick pause, the movie actually stopped and would not play past it thanks brian

sounds like with the speaker crafts in the rear you are not going for timbe matching. this may be a mistake you will regret or may not. I had to put my preakers in a cabinet as well and at first was dissapointed. they are paradigm mini monitors. after a email to paradigm and working with foam...

I really like the minis I have for mains with the cc370. I have adp 170's on hte sideas with titans to the rear. great set up. people dont like the 3's cause of the 8" driver I believe. perhaps the front port hinders it as well. expect to pay no more then 5-10% below retail at most and be happy...

thanks for the replies, I'll give it a go with all the stuffing. the cloth is part of the cabinet ergot the speaker cover is removed. Brian

thanks for the f/u. what about insulating the interior of the cabinet with egg crate or like material. or cut out back of cabinet? or "seperate" speaker from cabinet with padding? anyone had any success with these measures or the plugging of the rear port? thanks

to meet the WAF, I had to buy an enclosue for my HT stuff. the "theater wall unit" is made by hooker. It houses in a very pretty cherry cabinet set up my hit 65swx20b, denon 3803, rp82, paradigm cc370 and where the prblem lays - the mini monitors. the minis are each in a part of the cabinet...

using the radio shack digital spl, I get different levels if I opoint the meter tip at the speaker with pink noise or if I just point it strait ahead at the TV and leave it there instead of rotating the direction based on which source is emminating the pink. this will surely affect the levels...

next to my 65swx20b sits a 27" cheapie. this is for watching 2 games at once. problem is my mini monitor that is next to the 27" causes interference with the 27"er. is there a way to sheild the magnet from the tv that does not effect the quality of the mini monitor? thanks Brian

excellent replies. the reason I was wondering was because the 72 does not have coax out. sounds like I should get a dvd player with coax so I can experiment if I like. now for the next question, which player, the tosh 4800 or panny rp82 :) thanks Brian

Im debating between the pan 72, 82 and tosh 4800. will be hooked to hit swx20b and denon 3802. which is supposed to be better, optical or coaxial for sound quality thanks Brian

thanks for the follow up. this will indeed be my set up. I'll bet it will rock. Brian

thanks for all the info Mark, that was very helpful. the room has vaulted ceilings so perhaps the 38s would be great with 2 pair of 36s for the surrounds. are round rubber feet included and what type of screws did you use. I would like to have this info handy for my installers. thanks Brian

anyone have any experience mounting the 36s?

thanks all for the replies. each of you have 26s in the rear. exactly where in the rear are you talking and do they point at the listener. how do you all like the surround effect. thanks Brian

I plan on the JBL studio series and the Denon 3802 for a potential 7.1 set up. the room is 22' wide and 18' deep. For the sides and rears, spkr wire on the sides is 5 ft from the back of the room(adjacent to listener) and 7 ft high. the rear wires are 4 ft in from the side walls and 6 ft high...

anthony - why did you get the 26's, your first post said you were looking at the 38's. I bet the 38s would have been better but maybe your saying you are returning the 38's? brian

have any of ya compared em to the s26's? just wonering what the differences are in sound thanks brian

thanks for the f/u. I wonder if the redux in viewing angle is dramatic? also, if anyone has seen this screen, how does it do comparerd to some other mechanism of putting a protective screen up and having it be anti glare(hx81, diamond,ect.) vs a sheet from home depot vs the CC option. thanks Brian

here in Va, CC uses a company by that name to provide an anti-glare sheild for any RPTV you buy from them at a cost of $229. do all CC offer this and has anyone seen it or have it. what are some opinions on it? I'm contemplating the Hit65swx20B(at CC) or a hdx82(pos mits plat or pioneer643 as...

good info Ray and Phil. 1. I cant listen to the 26s, BB does not have them only the 38s. the 36s sound nice though. the 38s sound better than 36s as mains to me. if either of you or anyone else have heard the 38s, please compare them to the 26s as mains. 2. the 36s would work nice as side...

this is a very interesting thread. 2 questions for those in the know that may help me as well as the original poster. 1. s38 vs s26 as mains. aside from price, what are the differences one would notice listening to music and HT. is the articulation with one better. are the 38s boomy and...

ya got 7 speakers so ya need a 7.1. have you considered s38's up front to improve the front sound stage

Anyone heard the S38's up front with an S center. My guess is this would be the clear winner in the Studio line up but i havent heard them. Would they not beat the S 26's up front. BTW, S series is clearly better then N series as far as I can tell from my limited exposure. What if one used the...

I'm thinking S 38's with an S center up front and S 36's to the rear. N26's would be easier to mount in the rear then S26's so my first question is would the N26's make that big a difference for HT compared to S26's Also, would S38's be much better up front as compared to S26's up front...

also, are there any that include a Tivo unit in them?

I was planning on a Mits 65869 which is an integrated set. Now i am not so sure. I want the flexability of Sat HD w/o getting another HD tuner. 1.Which tuners are avail that would do OTA, cable and SAT(integrated mits tuner only does OTA and cable)? 2.which are the best? 3.are there a...

what are you replacing up front. do you have s26's there. how do you like the studio series. where in the rear of you room are these s26's and do you get a great surround effect with them??. lastly, how did you mount the rears?????? thanks for the replies in advance Brian

Phil, how difficult is it to wall mount S26's. you use a 5.1 set do you not. if so, where in your room are the surrounds placed thanks

say this quote on here today: "There are a few PC cards that let you tune in OTA signals also. You can watch them on the monitor or the TV and you can record them. The disadvantage is that you have to keep the PC near the TV." I am planning on putting a new pc next to new rptv. what is the...
