    Help with speaker calibration!!!

    Thanks, I decided to do something in the middle as far as volume. Regualr and movie level of sound. Seems pretty good. Watched Nascar and Hulk yesterday and both were ~15 dB in difference, both were good. Andrew

    DVE differnece PAL or NTSC

    Not sure where to post this, sorry of wrong area. I have the PAL version of DVE, but I am in the US and I guess should have the NTSC version. Will it make a difference, even though I am capable of playing PAL discs? Andy

    Great Video Game Moments

    First time our Atari turned on and Pac-Man displayed on our TV. My father and I were sitting on the floor Indian style and played for what seemed like an eternity. We still talk about it today and still game together on my 360. I am 34 now and he is 60. :)

    Bi-Wire? Speaker Gauge? Need some help...

    Thanks again JC. I like when the answers are short and too the point. That link offers what I wanted. Not just a "use this" answer, but also teaches me why. That is what I was looking for and that is what I was given. Thanks again brother! Andy

    Bi-Wire? Speaker Gauge? Need some help...

    Thanks for the short and easy to understand answer JC. How about gauge wire for a speaker setup such as this, also on the sub? Andy

    Bi-Wire? Speaker Gauge? Need some help...

    Read around and all I could find is that Bi-Wire is just a fancy term that does nothing, Bi-Amp is more like it, but nobody explains what it is. I gather that bi-amping is connecting 2 amps to the speakers? But what are the benefits of bi-wire if your speakers have 4 connections in the rear? 12...

    Need help finishing my HT!!!!

    Thanks for the reply. I was looking at the SVS complete and liked what I saw. Have not heard it yet. Was always wondering how much of a difference floorstanding and bookshelf there was. Reading it does not seem to be a huge difference to the "Basic, but educated consumer" like myself. I also...

    Center Speaker Placement

    I was unable to place mine above the screen as there was no place the mount it. I put it below the screen and angled it slightly up using a widget. I am quite pleased with the audio coming from it. People do not even know the speaker is there since it is behind a screened door.

    Toshiba HD-A20 Reviews?

    Any idea when it will be out and how it fairs to the A2 or A1. I know it outputs 1080p. Any place for a good comparison review of these? Just wondering if it is worth the extra $100, I am considering the A2 now. Current setup is a Samsung 61 DLP model HL-S6187 Denon AVR-887 Thanks...
