Thanks for the info. Now concerning my small room size, should I get the 30 or 34 inch set? I know there are rules for viewing distances, but given the limited space are those extra few inches really going to matter? Thanks, jeff

Hello everyone, I have a home theater room and am looking to get a 16:9 direct view tv. I have only come up with one series of tv that interest me. This is the sony xbr 910 30-34 inch tv's. Anyone have any opinions on another comparable brand. These sets look awesome. My room size is 11.5x9.5...

I have a serious question here. I know there is no right or wrong answer here and it is subjective to the individual and the kinds of components you are running. However, are high end cables really any better than regular radio shack type cheap cable? I currently bought into the hype of audio...

I really don't know the theory behind what it does but all I can tell you is that it is amazing. Musicians use these to get a great sound live and supposedly these are used on radio shows to get that great sounding live mic sound (the deep clear vocals). Like I said before this could be used...

I was wondering if anyone else uses a sonic maximizer in their home theater. I am a musician and I stumbled across a BBE sonic maximizer and fell in love with it instantly. I cannot really describe what it does, most of you are probably way ahead of me and already know, but as far as getting a...

Thanks for the replies. My only other question is for the fans that I have in my tv stand is it better to move the air out or have one fan drawing air in and then another to exhaust it out? Currently I have 2 ac fans running in opposite directions. I think that is why the dust is so bad in...

I know this isn't the most glamorous topic but in my room it is a problem. We had a new house built and I have converted a bedroom into a dedicated theater room. I have covered the window and have my tv in front of the window with my reciever etc underneath in a stand. I put in 2 heavy duty fans...

Thanks for the info. jeff

I know you can hire an isf calibrator to come in and calibrate your tv. Since most tv's now have dedicated inputs for multiple devices, do you have to calibrate each input seperately? If that was the case, the calibration would cost as much as a high end tv? My tau alone has 6 dedicated inputs...

I have a question about dampening a room. I currently have 1 inch thick studio foam squares on my back wall behind the tv and front tower speakers. I have seen a dramatically better sound and less echo (I have no furniture in this room as it is just for home theater). Currently I have no foam...

Thanks everyone for the advice. I think I will "borrow" one from a local store and if i like it then i'll keep it. Thanks, jeff

Maybe someone can help me in here. I have a home theater room with monster surge protectors, but have seen new products that actually are supposed to "clean" up the ac current on high definition televisions, resulting in a better picture. Monster sells 2 units and I'm sure there are more on the...

Thanks john for the info, however it still leaves me wanting to know more about it. The article was good at explaining about surge protectors, but unfortunitely didn't tell me a thing about hdtv line conditioners. I was just wondering if anyone has one of these or uses a line conditioner and...

hello, I was wondering if these items are actually a necessity for hdtv or if this is another attempt of an advertising gimic. Monster touts these items as a must for htdv, plasma, or lcd's. I have ac surge protectors w/filters, etc. but now I see things like these that are supposed to...

Thanks for the info mark..I appreciate it. jeff

I have built a home theater room. I am replacing my panny tau but I am wondering what tv to get. I want 16:9 aspect ratio definitely. I have 1500-2500 dollars to spend. I am thinking sony xbr910 either 30 or 34 inch models. My room is 9.5 by 11. I have a denon avr3801 receiver with infinity...
