    Opinions on the Panasonic DLP TVs?

    I'm thinking of purchasing a 56" Panasonic DLP TV. Model number: PT-56DLX75. It has a lot of features and plenty of inputs. It's also relatively cheap compared other brands. Are Panasonic DLP TVs any good? The only good things I hear about Panasonic are their plasma display. Any input...

    MASTER BURN-IN THREAD: READ THIS FIRST! (And ask follow-ups here.)

    With TV in torch mode and movie menu screen left on for hours, your bound get burn in. Moderate contrast and proper colour temperature setting should mimize the effects. If your paranoid about burn in on a CRT RPTV, just get a DLP or LCD RPTV. They've come down in price quite a bit compared to...

    MASTER BURN-IN THREAD: READ THIS FIRST! (And ask follow-ups here.)

    I've had my Hitachi 51S500 RPTV for over a year now and have only played about 4 hours of games on it. All of it spent on NHL 2K5. If there was an option to turn off the score overlays in the sports games then I would be in heaven. I mostly play sports games with the only static image in them...

    Feedback from my sub - why?

    Sorry, I meant sub cable. Corrected now.

    Feedback from my sub - why?

    What I'm guessing is you have a rca cable connected to the sub pre-out which is then connected to the subs rca in with a y adapter. Don't think that should cause the feedback. Have you tried a good quality shielded sub cable? A good digital coax or video cable should work too.

    Just got a job at A&B sound!!!

    Yep, I've seen Parasound and totem in the Calgary stores for ages. They did have Nuance speakers advertised in one of their flyers quite a few years ago. Smaller towers for $600cnd a pair.(50% off the retail prices they said) I think that was the only time they had Nuance for sale.

    Zenith DVB 318 & LG 7832 DVD Player merged thread

    On my LG, 480p does look pretty bad. But I bought this player for the 1080i ouput and the picture is so much better at the resolution. Running through the DVI output BTW.

    Zenith DVB 318 & LG 7832 DVD Player merged thread

    I just picked one of these up today.(7832) Did a basic calibration with DVE and the picture is just fantastic for a $250cnd dvd player. A noticeable improvement over my $150 prosacn karaoke dvd player and better then my parents 2 year old jvc interlace player. Kill Bill and Lord of The Ring TFTR...

    Question about Hitachi 51S500

    I have that tv and it recommends limiting 4:3 view to less then 15% of the time. I personally like the 4:3 expanded mode best but do agree with you, it does it cut a bit off the top and bottom. That's why I still use normal 16:9 viewing. Just make sure you turn down the contrast and brightness...

    Too Big?

    I'm 9 feet away from my 51 RPTV and it seem just a little to big. 11 feet looks better to me. But I just got the tv a few weeks ago so I'll probably get used to it. It's better to go too big then too small. With RPTV, if you sit too close the picture doesn't look as good. Too dim and fuzzy. I...
