    Ned some help with lighting.

    Well hey, If I can put LEDs in these things, than that saves me time and money. I'll look into what fixtures I have and what bulb they need.   Also, all of my fixtures have a plastic trim piece, but one has fallen off, and they just look cheap. Do you know of any good trims? I know this is...

    Ned some help with lighting.

    Hey all! My entertainment center could use some new lighting. The light fixtures are these small, maybe 2 inch diameter light fixture with some type of odd bulb. I think it might be xenon or something. Anyways, the bulbs seem quite rare and are a pain to replace. You can't touch them with your...

    Have I found the correct receiver?

    Thank you!!! If there was a rep system, I'd give you some. This post has helped me finalize my decision on what to buy!

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Okay, now I'm not looking to argue, but what does the fact that he played guitar have anything to do with my question? I suppose why I am so mad about this, is because I am asking simple questions, but no one will answer. They seem to want to inform me on something else. As I said, Robert_J was...

    Have I found the correct receiver?

    Sweet. Glad to know that someone really enjoys Denons. You don't happen to know if it will handle the multi-zone seperately do you? I know that It's a 7.1 system, so if I have it set to 7.1 and watch a movie, my whole house would be playing the movie. Instead I want the ability to sometimes play...

    Have I found the correct receiver?

    Hello and thank you for opening this thread! I am looking to get a 5.1 surround sound system set up in my families entertainment room. I have a Samsun 52" LCD TV, a Blu-Ray DVD player, an Xbox, and a DirecTV DVR receiver. I know which speakers I want already. I have a good deal on some JBL...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Did you not read what I said? I understand they are two completely different things. As far as I can tell, the only member who is actually /TRYING/ to help me with this receiver question I have is Robert_J. I would REALLY appreciate if I could just get help with what I asked, and not have all...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Okay, here's the update. I'm looking at either the Denon AVR-891 or the AVR-991. The only difference I can see of the two is that the 991 has multizone outputs, and the AVR-891 only has the capability? I'm thinking about going with the AVR-891 because the Surround Back can act as the outputs to...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Thanks for the advice, but I'm not a newbie to speakers and setups. I'm just new to home theater. I'm a musician. I'm used to having an amp, and 2 cables going to my 2 speaker cabs. I'm not just "jumping into the fire." I've been doing research for a few months now. I had a simple question about...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Ohhh Okay. That clears up a lot of confusion. So the Denon will infact power the speakers just fine, even though it's a 7.2 receiver and I'm only going to be using 5.1? I'm unsure if there are any problems that may arise from doing so. Thanks for all the help and advice. It's really...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    Thank you for answering! So when you say JBL home theater subs are average at best, what does that mean? I'm currently watching movies and stuff through my TV's speakers. This upgrade is going to blow me away either way. I've hear floor speakers, and they have excellent bass response. I heard...

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    I understand that, but what I'm saying is I trust JBL.I've read many reviews and feel good about the speakers. Can we stop talking about speakers and actually get back to my question. Is the Denon receiver that I linked the receiver I want?

    Help! I know what speakers I want, but am unsure about A/V Receivers.

    No, that was not a typo. The room where the speakers are going has cabinets where the bookshelfs and center will go. I've heard a system with bookshelfs in the front and floor speakers in the back, and it sounded great. Also, I am familiar with the layout for 5.1 systems. I don't think the...
