What would I watch, easy enough, Red's Christmas series with my family. What is Red's Christmas series you might ask? Well, my brother-in-law, who lives in Georgia, has a Christmas party every year with some friends of theirs. They draw names and exchange gifts. Well, Alton (my brother-in-law)...
Thanks, I have been really happy with the Klipsch speakers including the sub. I know alot of people were pushing other subs or multiple subs, but it seems like the one works well enough for me, I found myself having to turn it down some last night :p Naw, it is a 16X9 screen. My projector...
I have a set of klipsch speakers for my home theatre and I am using the Denon 2807. I have been happy with it. Its a little more than what you were thinking of spending but you should be able to pick one up for a little less than 800 new.
Well JJ, Its been awhile in the building, but it deffinately looks like the end results were worth all the effort. I love the seating, the bar tables attached to the back row of seating and especially the media center with pull out video storage. Congratulations on a job well done and hope...
Well, we still have a ways to go to finish everything, but have most of it to usable point. We still have a lot of touch up paint, caulking, etc to do, but since we are doing most of it, it will take some time. I have included some pictures this time. If you look, you can see our pond through...
I was leaning toward panels also, I am just going to buy some rigid 1/2 inch thick from an AC friend of mine. It may be a little into next year before I get around to that. I will probably go ahead and post pics as soon as I get the carpet put in. I am just ready to put up the equipment and...
Things are looking good JJ, I am looking to be finished with mine about a week before christmas. I will still have a lot of finish work and stuff to do, crown, base and other molding, etc, but it should all be usable. I have a question for you though. What have you decided to do about your...
Pick up a PS 3 60 GB today from best buy. Pick the 60gb for backwards compatibility via hardware rather than the 80 gb which uses software emulation. So now I am HD neutral. Total system now consist of the following ________________________________ JVC DLA RS1 1080P Projector Denon 2807...
Well, found a PS 3, 60 GB at Best Buy today which came with an additional free remote for 499.00. I purchased it instead of the 80gb due to the backwards compatibility issues. I cant wait to get this theatre done so I can see some high def on something other than my 24 inch computer monitor...
Hi, I just purchased a Playstation 3 and was looking at the Blu-ray and HD-DVD disc on Ebay (I have the xbox 360 with HD DVD drive also). I noticed that the prices were pretty low, many between 12 and 17 after shipping. Do I have to worry about these being copies and the quality not being good...
no question. just an observation Just wish a format would win out and be done with it. as for ebay, I had search for blu ray and only came up with the 84, i did it again today and came up with 3000, maybe I was only searching a sub catagory.
Thats exactly how I was looking at it. I already have the xbox with the HD DVD add on and I figure, if one format loses out this way, well, I still have a game console. Although, after doing some reading, I think I will look at the 60 GB version since it is backwards compatible with all the...
Hi, I was thinking of buying the playstation 3 motorstorm. You get the game + 5 movies by mail for 499.00. I noticed at Best Buy today that the majority of Blu Ray players were 499.00. Does something make them better than the playstation? You seem to get so much more for the same price when...
Just wanted to mention something I noticed today. I was in Best Buy, once again thinking about buying either a New 1080P HD DVD Player or a 1080P blu ray player. I presently have an xbox 360 that only supports 1080I. I was looking at the movies available on both and notice that the Best Buy in...
Tape, Mud and Texture will be finished Sunday, we will then start painting this week, I hope to have everything finished within the next 2 or 3 weeks. I will try to post some pictures of our progress here in a day or two.
Finished building the columns around my AC Duct, and running all my wiring. Also ran all my wiring from ceiling down through PVC. Put in bracing to hang speakers and projector from. I am ready to start putting insulation in walls and sheetrocking, I am still a little confused about...
I am not familiar with that receiver personally but took a few minutes and looked at CNETs review of it and it seems pretty impressive for 500.00. It has HDMI and is suppose to be able to pass a 1080p signal. it appears that at least one owners review states that it cant but maybe it is just him...
hmmm, this is weird, I thought a few of us had already posted to this thread, now the answers are gone. I will give you my pitch on it again. first off, You already have a receiver listed in your components that you already have, but assuming you dont want to use it (i noticed someone earlier...
Denon 2807 received pretty good reviews. it also has a microphone, and can be used in setup to adjust all your speakers for you with a few simple test. this portion of it recieved ok reviews it will pass 1080p signal, I have been pretty happy with the one I purchased. I think it is alot like...
Hey JJ, Behind the wall is stairs down, I had thought about building a shelf that went across the top of the stairway that I could put the projector in as you were saying but in the end, decided to ceiling mount it instead. The Theatre is actually part of a 2 story add on we are doing to the...
Questions: Attached is a diagram of the room. 1. Speaker placement: http://www.thx.com/home/setup/speakers/71.html http://www.dolby.com/consumer/home_e...omlayout2.html Sound and Video recomends on a 5.1 setup to put rears on back wall I want to wire for 7.1 but only put up 5.1 for...
Purchased speakers today. after alot of turmoil about which speakers to go with I finally decided on Klipsch. I picked RF82s for fronts RC62 for center RS52 for surround RW 12d for sub I am wiring for 7.1 but will just be installing 5.1 for now.
If I am going to have a 110 inch screen, is the proper distance from the projector to the screen going to be 10.89 feet to 21.98 feet? I was looking at the JVC DLA-RS1 manual online and that is the range they gave for wide to telephoto ( I am assuming that is what the W and T mean). If...
I am going to get a 110 inch screen from Carada. I need to order the speaker wire etc from blue jean tomarrrow and get the wiring done, so we can start closing in the walls. You mentioned running RGB, what about HDMI? I am going to ceiling mount the projector. So, are you suggesting that the...
Well, I made the plunge today and ordered my projector, the JVC DLA-RS1. I got an awesome price from AVS. They just lowered the price while supplies last. I talked to 3 dealers in the Dallas Texas area and they were all wanting 5995.00 to 6295.00 so I am very happy with the price AVS gave me...
Struggling with what set of speakers to get. I have listened to polk, dynaudio and klipsch. Problem is, I have listened to them all at seperate stores and am really unsure of which one I liked the best. I was leaning towards the Klipsch but then read a thread in the speaker section stating that...
