Chad, thanks for the response. More than likely, I'm the one that's confused. It didn't occur to me that I'd need a tuner in front of the receiver. That makes sense now. Just what does OTA mean? Steve K

We are seriously considering this a/v receiver for HT room but I have some issues I need to clarify. We have comcast digital cable and I understand that to receive high def signals I need to get a high def digital cable receiver which of course includes an up charge. To make it worse I think...

I have put a infocus sp110 on layaway. We've seen it in action and I've seen very good revues on it. The dealer says it will project a high definition image. One of the write ups I've seen say this "Ports for DVD, HDTV Set Top Box, VCR, TV Tuner, video gaming system, or computer. HDTV (1080i...

When we first started thinking about our "tv" room which continiues to evolve towards a home theater we like the little jbl speakers that are ceiling or wall mounted. With that plan in mind I ran my speaker wires into a box at each location right at ceiling height. We have now decided to go with...

We have about 13' from seating to screen. Right now it seems to me that the Sanyo Z2 is the best option for us. A 90" screen sounds great but we're afraid it may just be too big for our area. Does anyone project a smaller image than they could for any reason? I'm thinking maybe 70" or so might...

While watching the fellowship of the ring on a regular tv I noticed that many times the music drowns out the vocals. To my knowledge, there is no way to adjust the two different volumes on a regular system. Is that a problem with HT systems as well? Can the two different volumes be controlled...

I am still learning and haven't actually purchased the first piece of equipment yet. We are looking to buy within the next three months and right the sanyo z2 looks like a good enty level projector for us. I got to wondering though. When I go to the movies, what do they use? Not that I could...

Neil, making my own screen is a definite option, I didn't realize it until I saw your reply. I have a question though. As long as I keep the ratio correct, the scree can be slightly larger or smaller as needed, is that correct? thanks Chad, I have a pic online of our layout. If you want to...

In another thread two projectors were recommended to me to check out. The Sanyo Z1 and that panasonic 500. Both look like good options but I don't understand all I know about this stuff. Is it common to use a projector for normal TV veiwing? We watch TV through the week and movies/sports on...

Thanks for all the great responses. I am just now framing walls and running speaker wires so working weekends it may be a couple of months or so before I actually start shopping seriously. I know next to nothing about HT and everytime I learn something it raises about a hundred more questions...

We are putting a "tv" room in the basement. When we started we were thinking as large a tv as we could get downstairs and a few hundred for surround sound system. Then, I started researching and discovered more options than I ever dreamed existed. Now, we're really considering a front projector...
