Hello everybody. Haven't been on here for a while. It's nice to be back and looking for new gear. Well, I'm renovating a room for family/HT. The room is totally gutted, so I'm going to run wire for 7.1 The room is very ideal (finally I catch a break!) Its 13.5' x 20.5' with 8' ceiling. I will...

What color is this. How would shipping be calculated? pics?

yes, my other speakers do have the CMMD tweeter. Guess it's a no brainer since they are in my price range too.

Thank you. I will look into both of those. Would it make any sense to get the infinity just because my center and mains are infinity? I read people talking about timbermatching(sp?), but not sure if I would be able to tell the difference.

I recently moved and my living room is not too ideal for surrounds. So I was thinking of using an in-ceiling speaker for my surrounds. I have a 5.1 setup. Is there anything good for around $200 for the pair? Thanks! Josh

I just got a new Sony 32"LCD. It has a HDMI input. My cable box has a DVI output. My DVD has a HDMI output. What would be the optimum connection? Should I use the HDMI input on the TV for the DVD, or should I use it for HDTV and get a DVI to HDMI cable? Would it depend on if I watch...

I'm shopping for a HTIB for my brother. He just built a house so needless to say, he's on a budget. After a lot of research, I'm down to the Onkyo 770 and the Tyke/kenwood package. Any thoughts to help with the decision??? Thanks! Josh

I want to get a DVI cable, but am a little confused. I went to blue jean cables to order one and they have two pictures of a DVI-D, and DVI-I plugs. Mine looks like the DVI-D plug except that there are two long vertical pins inbetween the rows of small pins and the one horizantal pin. (Take a...

Hi, I've got to pick up a DVD player tonight at CC (Mothers Day) and was wondering what would be the better bet: an open box CP72 or a new F85. Thanks for the help, josh

I'm not sure if i'm asking this question right, but here goes: I want to be able to watch TV and listen to the audio through my stereo's speakers. How do I do this without having to turn on my VCR(which I am doing now) And can I keep the DVD player hooked up as it is now with the video...

thank you! I feel like such an idiot! IT WORKS!

Can anybody help me out here? I set up all the dts settings and speakers setting in the OSD, and then select DTS in the DVD menu, and no sound at all. What am I doing wrong? I hope there is nothing wrong with the receiver. . . please help, josh

Thanks dave, I appreciate it. It's good to know that there will not be a huge difference between the 54 and 88.5L designs. That definitily helps out my decision. I too was also leaning towards the sealed designs. thanks, josh

I know this has probably been asked a million times, but I can NOT make up my mind. I've got a Shiva and a PE plate amp(250), and i've narrowed the enclosures down to three: the 54L sealed, the 88.5L sealed and the ported 85L. I can't make up my mind though. So... I will be using it for both...

has anybody bought the compression style banana plugs from partsexpress part # 091-330? I really don't want to spend any more than what these cost, but obviously want a quality connection. I know alot of you have the daytons, but they are kind of expensive for me. I wanted to get something at...

Thanks!

I just went to order a component video cable at rhino and I have the option of "RCA/BNC or combination." I have no idea what to pick. Any help here? thanks, josh

I was looking at a chart that compares the HK225 to the 320 and one of the things the 320 has that the 225 doesn't is "Wideband, HDTV-Ready Component Video" Can anybody tell me what this is? Also, any votes for a refurb 320 vs. a new 225. I can't make my mind up. And how important is...

can you explain to me how those threaded inserts are used? I cant seem to figure out how they hold anything in place. thanks, josh

ColtonA took the words right out of my mouth. I've been into car audio for about 10 years now. There are SO many other great brands out there that can't be touched by stuff you can get at CC or BB for the same price. So do your research, and go to either elitecaraudio.com carsound.com or...

Ok, after doing some searching, I've narrowed down my choices to two receivers: the HK 125 for $299, or the HK320 for $399. I'm on a tight budget so the $400 for the 320 is absolutely the most I want to spend. So basicly, I don't know if the extra power and DTS ES is worth the extra hundred...

I was looking at buying a used 310 or 320. I just did a search to find out what the differences were. One thing is the 310 does not have component video switching. Can somebody tell me what this means. Also one person said the 310 had reliabilty problems. Can anybody second this issue...

Darren, thanks for clarifying. I did not know the information sent to these speakers were full range. I do want a smaller rear because I have a small living room and am trying to appease the wife and not have hugh speakers all over the place. I guess I will have to find a good compromise in...

Thanks for the suggestion Dan. I checked these out (online) and according to all the reviews, people love these. Only thing is, IMO, they are darn ugly. But I may still get them. What are some online sources to get these at a good price? And does anybody else have any other suggestions for...

what is the passive radiator jeff is speaking of? Do I need this too or just the amp and sub?

thanks everybody for the help. I think I'm going with the vented Shiva in an Adire Alignment (85L) It suits my size requirements along with being good for both audio and HT. Can anybody comment on this setup that has built it. I would love to hear your thougts on how it sounds. thanks, josh

Hey everybody. This is just my second post here. Great forum. I'm going to do the DIY sub thing like a lot of other people here with the Adire sub and the PE plate amp. I'm new to HT, so what kind of questions should I be asking myself when choosing between the shiva and tempest, sealed or...

first time posting here, so hello everyone. My name is Josh. Just getting into this HT thing after being engulfed in my car stereo for the past 4 years. It's finally finished. Anyway, I've got lots of questions, but I'll start with just one: I need a set of rear surround speakers. I want a set...
