    Which speakers for front & center upgrade?

    I apologize for yet another "which speakers to get" post. But everyone here knows more about speakers than I do, and you know you guys enjoy this stuff. :) It was easier when I was ignorant and just went to Circuit City and packed my movie watching room with a Polk Audio setup. Don't get me...

    What if Randy Newman did the theme to Lord of the Rings...

    Short background on this piece: This song was performed by a duo called Paul and Storm during the Bob and Tom Radio Show on January 19, 2005. Paul and Storm were previously in the band Da Vinci’s Notebook. Anyway, this is their take on what the Lord of the Rings theme song would sound like if...

    Vertical lines on Sanyo Z1

    So my beloved projector was having some issues last night. For whatever reason, it was showing thin vertical blue lines across the entire display. They were evenly spaced, probably 20 or so of them in total. I searched through HTF, and I've seen many abandoned threads that mention this, but...

    Buying plane tickets when you don't know when you are traveling?

I need to be there 8 days after the birth for the bris, but obviously I don't know when that is going to be.

    Malcolm in the Middle - Reese Joins the Army: Part 2 - 05/23/04

    Pretty funny episode of what I saw. Unfortunately, most of it was cut out because of storm warnings. (Notice how they make sure never to interrupt commercials for storm warnings.) Anyway, I've never had the need to try and download an episode of a tv show before now, but I'm really curious as to...

    Can you identify this song from PCU?

    I've been trying to figure out the name of the song and band from this one song from PCU but with no luck so far. It's during chapter 15, about 45 minutes in. It's the scene when Droz and the 2 Daves are stealing the kegs. Can anyone help me out or point me in the right direction? Thanks in...

    Do I need to worry about bulbs disappearing?

    I am new to front projectors, so I apologize if this question is ignorant. I recently purchased a Sanyo Z1 and hope to use it for years. Do I need to worry about replacement bulbs disappearing from the market? Will there ever be a time where I can no longer find a replacement bulb for it? Are...

    Age old question...which subwoofer? (around $500)

    I know I've posted about this before, but that was more of a hypothetical then. I'm serious about dropping the $$ this time. :) I'm looking at the Adire Rava, the HSU VTF-2, and the SVS 25-31PCi. My current speakers are: Fronts: Polk Audio RT35i Center: Polk Audio CS245i Surrounds: Polk...

    Doorbell Signaler

    I've been researching doorbell signalers the past couple of days because you absolutely cannot hear the doorbell when we are in the basement. I ran across this: (Gee, I'd like to put a URL here, but the system won't let me. Anyway, if you google for Sonic Alert, it's the first match. Then go...

    Anyone taken the hobby to the next level?

    We had the discussion at work the other day about what we all would do if we were to choose a different career path. One guy mentioned opening a bar/grill, one of the gals metioned a wedding planner. I thought about it for awhile and thought it would be really cool to do some home theater work...
