    Denon 2500 BD Player - Problem with Firmware Update Process

    I recently burned the new firmware on a CD-R and when I placed it in the open tray, entered the "9" "8" "7" "6" sequence followed by the "Pop Up Menu/Menu" key, all per the instructions, nothing happens. Please tell me that someone else out there has had this issue. Incidentally, I'm also not...

    Just wanted to thank everyone on this forum who has contributed in any form or fashion to the ongoing discussions regarding the InFocus 4805 projector. I'm happy to report I just ordered one today from Kirk Punches at TV Authority. This will make a great addition to my new home theatre...

    Anyone take the InFocus 5000 plunge yet?

    Just wondering if anyone out there has purchased this projector, and if so, what they think of it. I'm debating between the 4805 and the 5000. The 4805 price point is low enough that I could purchase it sooner than if I waited to save a little more for the 5000. My wife and I are building a...

    How common are ripples and wrinkles on pull-down screens?

    This topic got generated in a different thread, but I was hoping to get some more feedback on people's experiences with manual pull-down screens, so I created a new thread specific to this topic. I'm worried about wrinkles and ripples or waves on the screen surface of a pull-down model...

    Front Projection Screen Vibration?

    Just wondering if anyone has had problems with their manual pull-down or electric screens vibrating (and thereby affecting the picture quality) due to a movie's soundtrack? A friend of mine just told me he went with a fixed tensioned screen mounted on the wall for his DLP projector to avoid the...

    Help with Terk TV44 Antenna

    Hello everyone! I'm having trouble getting all the local HD channels in the Minneapolis/St Paul area with this particular antenna. When centering it on my dish, I get all but one of the local HD channels. When I start sliding it more to one side, I get that last missing channel, but somewhat...

    Help! Problems with Sony 9000ES DVD Player

    I wanted to find out if anyone else has had such a problem as this one. When I turn on the player, the blue Sony graphics screen that comes has its colors altered and the image is shimmering at times. It isn't static and it changes randomly. It's like someone is turning some sort of video...

    Thoughts on Duvetyne Lining?

    Just wondering if anyone has had this done and if so, what are your thoughts on how your set now performs? I'm having Gregg Loewen do the yearly touch-up on my calibration this September/October and plan on having him line my Toshiba 57HX81 with Duvetyne. Thanks in advance for your...

    Gregg Loewen's Magic

    I just wanted to tell everyone how happy I am with Gregg's ISF calibration services. He was just at my place this evening and worked his magic on my Toshiba 57HX81. He spent almost four hours at my home making sure the set's picture was as perfect as could be. He's enthusiastic, a real...

    Problems with "The Cable Guy" DVD?

    I used to be able to watch this disc until I tried it on my Toshiba SD-4700 player. Now when I put the disc in, it appears the player is doing something, but the screen is completely black. I am not able to access the menus either. Has anyone had a similar problem with either this title or...

    Any Thoughts on Richard Gray's Power Company Products?

    I've been thinking of purchasing one or two RGPC 400S units and would appreciate hearing what other members think of these products. My dealer swears by them for both audio and video applications.

    Which Setting to Use on CSW Newton S300 Surround Speakers?

    Today I received a pair of Cambridge SoundWorks S300 surround speakers. Due to the nature of my home theatre room, I will need to place these on the back walls instead of on the sides of the listening area. If the speakers were going on the sides, I would normally switch them to dipole mode and...

    New Special Edition of "The Mask" in the Future?

    I've noticed that the current New Line DVD of "The Mask" offers up both pan-and-scan and widescreen editions of the film, but there is no mention of an anamorphic transfer for the latter. I was disappointed to see that it appears to be non-anamorphic. My hope is that New Line might decide to do...
