Thanks for the reply. Yes I have been able to find ones that will detach from the wall but that requires paying for a new mount but more importantly new holes in the wall. I should have thought about using one of those to begin with however already had the mount that I used thus the need for...

Hi All. I have not been able to find what I am looking for as of yet and thought maybe someone here may have come across something like this before. What I need is an adapter plate that will allow me to quick remove a TV from a wall mount with having to unscrew it. It should support the...

Hi David, What brand of remote is it? I have a ceiling fan that has an RF remote and a RAV-2000 remote that only supports IR. I was able to make this work by creating an IR2RF converter with the help of Dave Houston. You can get more details on this at www.remotecentral.com in the X10...

I love my Z1. It sounds great and I have had no problems.

It should. I know my Yamaha c920 does. It is a 5 disk DVD changer and if I put in cds I can choose to do random among a single disk or all disks. Brad

Hi all, I am looking for a good high quality STB with the following features: HD decoder DirectTv or DISH Tivo or replay TV 5.1 audio output. I know that the PVRs currently do not record HD signals so I am not worried about that. I would just like to be able to record when I want for...

Hugo, Are you staying that I could get a direct tv HD receiver and not have to get a set top box? I thought you would still have to get a separate set top box. Thanks Brad

Thanks for all the responses. Jeff do you know the name of the program from Yamaha that will allows for the setup you describe. I will contact my dealer I just want to know what to ask for. Thanks Brad

Hi All, I have a Yamaha RX-Z1 receiver and I am curious as to what the RS-232 port provides. The manual does not offer a good explanation. I have searched the forum and not found any info as to what it is for or how people are using them. Thanks help the help. Brad

Sounds good. I won't bother with it then. Thanks again for the fast reply. Brad

Hi All, I wanted to find out if it would help/hurt/be a waste of time to tin the end of my speaker wire. I will be making all connections to either banana clips to the reciever or spades to the speakers. I am thinking this way there is no exposed wire to oxidise. Thanks for the help and...

Thanks Bob for the info and advice. I think I will do it the way you suggest and can rewire to use the receiver to do the switching when I add a HD tuner to the TV. I have not looked closely at the PVR yet but it sounds like they only support S-Video connections. Or will some support component...

Hi All, My new home theater system was just delivered so now I am in the process of hooking everything up. I wanted to explain how I planned to hook it up to make sure it is the proper way and that I am getting the most out of the system. First I will list the equipment then the proposed...

Hi All, I have ordered a new Pioneer Elite 64" RPTV. While I am waiting for it to be delivered I have been looking into arranging the furniture to get the most seats with a good view of the TV. Of course I will have the sofa located directly in front of the TV so that will allow my wife and I...

Thanks guys for the feedback. I'm excited about the equipment. As far as the trained ISF technician when should I have them come in. I have heard that I should wait a month or two before doing this. Is that correct? Also any idea on what the cost might be. Thanks Brad
