    I also used a 2 inch PVC, it has only one 90 degree turn which is right at the box it goes into, other than that its a straight run, I wanted to go with a 3 incher but since I had to cut a hole in my steel I-Beam in the basement to get it throught I didnt want to go over 2 inches on the hole...

    HT room

    Personally I would go with as high a ceiling as possible, nothing crazy but in my opinion 9 feet is optimal, as far as the stereo, once again I personally would get a 6.1 or 7.1, Yes I know that the majority of movies are still 5.1 but nonetheless I think that a 5.1 soundtrack sounds better on a...

    InFocus 'acceptable missing pixels'?

    Honestly you are the only person I have heard complain about the 4805 with a dead pixel, it sux that they are treatin you like that, but anyway, I have heard that tuning to a channel that doesnt broadcast IE. a snowy station and leaving it on for about 2-4 hours can loosen a stuck pixel...

    Panny or Sony which one to buy?

    Go for the Pioneer, Sony is garbage, Im not gonna argue with anyone here but sayin sony has better parts in it is like saying KLH speakers are better than Paradigm or Klipsch

    Need some advice on a projector ...

    Take a look at the BenQ PE7700, the Toshiba MT700 or the Optima H77, I have seen the H77 and in my opinion the picture on a 120 looks awesome even standing 4 feet away from the screen, If I had the bucks right now I would get one of those 3 as they probably have just about the same picture quality

    Which 50" to buy?

    My vote is for the Pioneer Elite, A freind of mine has the 50" in his bedroom and its fantastic, He was able to get it Brand New at American TV for around 5,500.00, dont ask me how he talked them down that much because even he doesnt know how he lucked out that much, but the fact that it comes...

    Help! Losing my mind trying to decide between DLP and LCD...

    This may have been due to what they were feeding the TV's, if they had DVD's set on 480i or something of that manner it would look bad

    Insulationin the basement ceiling in theater room

    I put the drywall up on my cieling about a week ago, I put R-19 between the joists and used Sound Resilient hat channel over the joists, and after doing some tests, I wish I had put a double layer of R-19 up, alot of sound is still blocked but I had hoped for better results, but there is no way...

    If I trip a single fuse...

    the answer sounds like Yes, If all that stuff goes off at once when the breaker pops, and then comes back on once you turn the breaker back on, then the answer is definitally yes, you could try to upgrade the breaker to a 20 amp but I wouldnt recommend that, as if it doesnt blow the 20 it may...

    Infocus 4805's MSRP has been reduced

    I always thought Rebates were Gay and pointless, "to the consumer that is" the manufacturer just hopes that someone will lose the papers or forget to send in the rebate :thumbsdown:

    InFocus 4805 TVAuthority Q&A

    im not an expert on the reciever/speaker end of things, I know how to hook up a 7.1 and what is and isnt a good speaker, but I wonder if Lengthening your speaker wire runs "Perhaps doubling the lengths" would help that problem

    a questions about sound-proofing your basement

    Indeed, Erik has some great Ideas, a few of which I have implemented in my theater as well, in my ceiling I used the R19 Insulation between the joists and then put the Resilient hat channel over them like he did, I was going to use roof felt on the joists as well but decided against it, I have...

    Help! Losing my mind trying to decide between DLP and LCD...

    My vote is for DLP, after a couple years of reading and viewing LCD and DLP, IMHO you cant beat DLP, in all reality with the exception of the bulb dimming over its lifetime, the picture on a DLP will never degrade, whereas on an LCD it will over time fade and degrade ie. blue polorizer and LCD...

    Can I go to the Better Business Bureau about Sony?

    I know more people that have horror stories about Sony than any other product out there, a box of cereal has a longer shelf life than a sony product
