    What do you want to see at a dealer?

    We're getting ready to totally remodel and we're looking for ideas. ANY ideas are more than appreciated, so is there anything you have ever wanted to see at a dealer that just wasn't there? What would be your suggestion for us to implement? Thanks in advance!

    Diffusion help

    I wouldn't go with RPG simply because of price. Also, two 2x2 panels will do next to nothing for you. I'd suggest looking at Auralex. I got a 12-pack of the 2'x2' Metro-fusors for a little over what you'd pay for one 2'x2' RPG Skyline. I lined my back wall (4 wide x 2 tall) from the ceiling down...

    Air Conditioning

    I'll try running the fan constantly and see if that helps any. As far as the portable air conditioners...they seem really gimmicky to me since it is physically impossible to cool more than you heat with a heat pump (air conditioners are heat pumps)...basic thermodynamics. Has anyone had any...

    Air Conditioning

    I need help badly. I need suggestions on what to do about the heat in my theater room. I've got your standard heat producers (DirectTV reciever, DVD player, reciever, subwoofer, and TV). When you add the heat of a couple of people, the tempature in the room can rise to as high as 85 or 90...

    RPTV or FPTV?

    Not sure on the Infocus...might have to look into that. Let me reiterate about the black level with the LPX-500...its pretty good (my comments made it sound like it wasn't). The DPX-1000's contrast is just downright amazing. I went and talked with my dealer today and we pretty much agreed front...

    RPTV or FPTV?

    Thanks for the info. On the LPX-500, at about 8-9 ft back I could see the screen door, BUT, that was still at the 110" screen size that they have in the room. If I scooted back a few feet, screen door went away. As far as the biggest reason the DPX-1000 looked better...I think was the black...

    RPTV or FPTV?

    Hi. After having hell with my 32" Sony HD XBR, I've decided to say goodbye to direct view TV's (when I started, I planned on doing a small HT...nothing big or expensive, but I kinda ended up going the opposite way). Since my TV is fubar'ed (and in the shop right now for the second time), I've...

    New meaning to BIG flat screen....

    Saw these at a convention...pretty freekin neat. They are in fact based off a 800x600 DMD chip (in otherwords, DLP). Whats really neat about them is that you can stack em (thats what they are designed for actually, hence 'MegaView Wall'). I saw a wall of 2x3....it was pretty amazing. Only a VERY...

    Just heard a bunch of high end Cabasse speakers....WOW

    One of the things that impressed me about the 55ND (or Vesuvius as they call the 55ND in its enclosure) was the lightsabre fight towards the end of SW Episode 2. Those low frequency sweeps were noticably more accurate than I'd ever heard before. Another thing that it did VERY impressively was...

    Just heard a bunch of high end Cabasse speakers....WOW

    I personally know both the head of Cabasse North America and the head sales rep...and the other day the sales rep got his new speakers in...3 Cabasse Artis Ambrose II's (L, R, and center). He's running these off a new 5 channel Butler tube amp. He also got a new 2 channel Butler tube amp that he...
