Wow, what does it take to get a 5 star for video? Doesn't sound like this transfer deserved anything less then a perfect 5. Where does it lose the 1/2??
I'll add my "I heard' that Diesel didn't want to get caught up in sequels and limited by type casting, etc. Kinda like Charlies Angels 2, he didn't want the chink in his armor.
DareDevil sucked because they destroyed the DD story. The original story. King Pin is white, not black, and a lot bigger then the actor they chose. So, right off the bat, whoooa, they screwed up. The Electra character, they dropped the ball on her and her story, the dropped the ball on how her...
GrahamT - I read your post, sounds interesting and my be my problem as well. Can you elaborate on the 'lube' you used? And did you put it between the tweeter and the star shaped faceplate?
I have a similar question about my 370, but it's more like clipping or a resonating type of vibration. On deep voices that scream, there's vibration (or slight distortion) at the peak of the tone. Is there a test that can be done to determine if it's the tweeter? Like playing a sweep or...
Been looking forward to this movie. Saw the first in theaters and somehow watched it every day on Stars as it was their only movie for like 2 months and I loved it every time. A very realistic and believable type of action movie, kinda like a new reality show about amnesiac cia rogue agents...
And for sake of arguement, for those that don't know what bullseye really looked like you can see why I think they really destroyed his apppearance in the movie, nothing like in the comic books- They made him out to be some biker with a weird tattoo on his forehead. I mean they put DD...
If you read the comic (probably didn't) her body is stolen by a evil nija assassin clan and they revive her body to kill Matt. She doesn't Electra almost dies and she goes to China or something to train with the ninjas and old man shown in the trailer. As for DD, they ruined the comic so...
How much more will the DC have? How much longer? I saw the DC of Butterfly effect and it had only an alternate ending with about 5 minutes of different footage. That's much much a reason to make an entirely new second purchase. LOTR averaged about 30-35 minutes of extra footage and was worth the...
Ron Reda- You can return opened movies? Yea, I just bought it thinking it would be entertaining. Man was I wrong. This is a birthday gift for my wife's sister now. The movie was horrible, barely funny and I think had 1 explosion and a body count of 2 if lucky. It's Zoolander with guns that...
I have the Monitor 7s, CC370 and ADP170s, so I know how you feel :) I too haven't bi-wired mine yet, but I like the suggest above to simply run a short jumper with the same wire.
I hated the DD movie. They destroyed the story, and spit on his history. Electra's father dies on some docks, and indirectly due to DD knocking some thug out with his sticks and a gun misfiring. Where's the red parted hair? Burgundy spiked? Bullseye is a 250 lb thug, who wear's a costume, not a...
It's a because you can make a movie with a large fan base built in. People will see the movie NOT based on the actors or the writers, etc. If done right, it's sure to make money. DareDevil tanked because the story was a treacherous hollywood attempt to make it fit in the time frame. There are so...
Yea, only CRTs do this and mine does it as well. However, mine will discolor, usually a green or magenta blob at the bottom corner or top corner. You can lean the speaker towards the tv to see it grow and disappear as you move the speaker away. This is not a permanent issue (or so I was told)...
I might be upgrading my sub soon and I know about SVS. I also read a reveiw with the HSU and have auditioned the PDW 2100. All around the $600-$700 area. However, I've recently read about the Outlaw FM-12 and it's only $579. It's in the same league specs wise and was wondering if any knows...
Well, that background music isn't much more then 10% of the total soundtrack being delivered. I don't mean they come on 10%, I meant what comes out is very minimal to the center and fronts.
I don't think they'd just drop a product on the market. They'd press release the models, then take orders, etc. That can even take months even longer. Look at the Phillips LCOS. I've read that was supposed to be shipping like last summer. Then some trickled in but were defective. Then they...
You rarely actually hear the surrounds. I have the titans for mains and will upgrade to monitor 7s soon. I'm using the ADP -170s for surrounds and they are on what, maybe 10% of a typical movie? You'd really only get good use from them with DVD-A or multichannel SACD. Even then, it's mostly...
Thanks for the info. Weird, cause Lowes here in Orlando only sells oak, pine, poplar and MDF. Guess it varies depending on your region. Still would like to see a picture.
I would highly recommend the Paradigm system with one exception. Watching movies I think some 80% of all sound comes thru the center channel (or at least the most important stuff does) and thus the center channel is VERY important for movies. I'd say move up the center channel to the CC-170.
I have the PDR-10 and will upgrading as well. I think for the difference in cash there isn't much difference in performance. Not only that, but I'm sure the 2200 is huge because the 2100 is pretty big (bigger then the PDR-10, hehe) As long as you get either one you'll be fine, they both use...
Here's what I think- In the future, I'd have to say OLED will be king. But that's a few years off and anything can happen until then. CRTVs will be dead in 3 years, and LCOS is a flash in the pan IMO. Why? Because only 2 companies make them and there's no one rushing in to join them and they are...
Have you listened to the Atoms yet? It sounds as though you haven't. If not, I really recommend it. Listen to your Dad's Infinities and then bring the same CD to the paradigm dealer and check it out. Also, Paradigms are decent matches with the newer Yamaha's from what I've read. Also, think of...
My Titans aren't shielded either. It only matters if your have a CRT TV (which I do) so just move the speakers 6-12 inches away from the set. Thing is, depending on the TV size, mains are supposed to be like 6 feet apart anyways, wide enough where shielding isn't an issue. If i went away...
Lee MT- I'm thinking I will eventually put my Titans to the rear as surround backs, and get Monitor 7s up front as my mains. As for deciding on speakers, it also really depends on your receiver as some don't match well with certain speakers. There aren't many that match well with Paradigm so I...
