Why not try to get the free chair. I doubt you will get the new financing, but for the sake of good customer service they may give you the chair. The worst that can happen is they say no.

I think a lot of it is just personal preference. I've found that 1.5x the screen is too close for me, but that 2x to 2.5x is about right (for me).

6th Ave. is definitely an authorized Denon dealer. I bought my 3803 from them, and had a very good experience. I would think that, as an authorized dealer, what they say about the warranty on an open-box is legit. You could also try calling Denon (the number is on their web site). Though it...

Jeff, thanks for the information. I haven't been to Blockbuster for a number of months now because they had only P&S versions of many new releases at the time, so I switched to Hollywood even though it was farther away. It sounds like I will have to give Blockbuster another chance if they now...

I was told by my local Hollywood Video that they in fact do not have the film, but the reason has nothing to do with its content. I was told that Hollywood could not reach a deal with the film's distributor, and so will not be stocking it. Sounds like a price per copy dispute. . . I have...

I purchased my Denon 3803 from them on-line, and have nothing but praise. They are authorized for (I believe) all of the products they sell, and have excellent customer service. I would not hesitate to buy from them again.

I've had mine for about a week, and like it very much so far. The picture is excellent, and so is the DVD-Audio performance. I bought if from a local authorized B&M, who gave me a 10% discount off MSRP. I know I could have found it for less on-line, but I want a full warranty, and the local...

I have a Samsung SIR-T150 and have been very happy with it. I bought a display model from a local B&M after a replacement model was introduced.

Anamorphic DVDs will say that they are either "Anamorphic," or "enhanced for widescreen," or "enhanced for 16:9," or something similar. As to your second point, I think you are being overly paranoid. 2.35:1 Anamorphic movies will have black bars on your TV. MANY movies are filmed in that...

Mike, you may have set up a theme based channel, and told it to record certain shows whenever they are on. For example, if you like "Judge Judy" like shows, you can tell it to record shows that have the word "Judge" in the title up to however many hours you want. You'll then get Judge Judy...

Chapter 11 Bankruptcy does not mean that the company is closing up shop. To the contrary, a Chapter 11 allows a company to temporarily stop paying creditors while it prepares a plan of reorganization. This plan must be approved by the Bankruptcy Court, and is designed to allow the company to...

Yet another reason to not rent from Blockbuster. I've had at leat two similar experiences with "late" returns. On time, my wife returned the DVD on her way to a morning class (before noon). The computer showed that the DVD was "returned" at 10PM that day when my wife and I were together and NOT...

Robert, please post any response you get from Blockbuster to your letters. I too have now switched to Hollywood Video, though mine is about a mile and half farther away than Blockbuster. As some of the previous posts point out, it is much easier to educate the "full-screen" customer, and they...

Sherry, thanks, I will check out DVD Overnight. I've also learned that NetFlix has a "lite" plan, which allows you to rent two at a time for a total of 4 per month. That may also be an alternative.

Yes. I've had exactly the same experience. . . well, not exactly because in my expreience the Bolckbuster employees don't know the answer to most questions, and just make up answers. On my last few visits I have noticed that ALL new release dvds that have a separate p&s and WS version, are only...

Have you tried fussing with the cable connection, maybe it is loose or a bad cable? If not, my best guess is that its the TV. I've never heard good things about Apex brand products (other than they're really cheap). My brother bought an Apex DVD player a while back, and it would just not play...

Most web-sites that sell DVDs cary the AVIA disc.

I'm with you Jack. My wife can't figure out how I know that the TV is on when the ReplayTV is off and there is no picture or sound from the TV. Glad to know I'm not the only one :-).

Jamey, I have a 50HX81 TV and a Toshiba 5700 DVD player. I do not have anything hooked up s-video or composite because I use the set-up for home theater and HDTV only in my basement. I watch "regular" cable tv in the family room on a different tv. I will hook up the DVD player using s-video to...

You arec orrect that many states that have adopted a version of the Uniform Commercial Code or other similar laws recognize certain implied warranties such as the warranty of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. These implied warranties come with many restrictions, such as you...

Jamey, I believe that you assumption is correct. I have an OTA HDTV receiver connected to my Toshiba HDTV through my Denon 3803 and cannot change the strech or zoom. I think this is because the receiver (and in you case the cable box) is sending a 1080i 16:9 signal to the TV, so it does not...

The Denon 3803 (which should be available soon) does both 100Mhz component switching (2-in, 1-out), and will upconvert composite and s-video to component. The MSRP is $1200, but you may be able to find it for about $1000.
