    Considering Vision Corrective Surgery

    The fact of the matter is that you're going to find people on both good and bad sides of ANY topic. If you try to take a vacation somewhere you'll find people who loved it and can't wait to go back. You'll also find people who hated it and wouldn't send their worst enemy there. The fact of the...

    JVC RX8030. Video out...no picture.

    This may be a dumb question, but make sure on your tv that you are selecting the correct video input for your component cables. From what I can tell this receive "should" output everything from the component cable "monitor out". The only other thing I can think of is there may be a button or...

    IDEAL Dimensions for HT

    So, using the "golden ratio" of 1 w x .61 h x 1.61 l. If I'm designing my ht from scratch and not limited to an existing room then once I know the width of the room, i should make the others according to this ratio? For instance, if my HT were 18 w then the following should be the rest? 18w x...

    IDEAL Dimensions for HT

    I was just wondering what the "expert" opinions are on what the interior dimensions of an "ideal" home theater would be if I were interested in seating about 10-12 people. This would be for a front projection system, just to throw that in there. Thanks in advance all.

    HT Wiring Question

    I agree completely with Craig. If you'll have access to run the cable later, do it then. If you are going to button everything up and it may be difficult to run the cable, do it now. I live in a condo and installing my projector was a one-time deal, I wish now I would have installed HDMI cable...
