I caught the front projection bug a few years back when I walked into a High End HT shop while visiting a friend in Atlanta. Within days I bought an old CRT projector, then an XVGA 1024x768 DLP. I have a BluRay player but still can't...

What type of surround mode are you using? How loud are your surrounds adjusted? Some surround modes put some pretty strange sounds in the surround speakers to give a sense of space and if there turned up higher than normal (not...
