I just got a new receiver, and the arrangement I had on my previous receiver doesn't seem to work. I'll admit I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to this, so I'm in need of some help. Is there any resource for connection diagrams? I don't know what to run through the receiver, or tv or dvd...

I have a decent one (I think). It was over $100 when I bought it a few years ago. And if I remember correctly, it was one that was recommended here. Thanks for the tip though.

A year later... Anyone heard any news info on this? I'd like to see them come out with a SE. I was hoping with the influx of new movies in this genre, they might try and take advantage.

Well based on some of the comments on other threads, I decided to look at the Pioneer 1014. I found one at Best Buy clearanced out and they gave me an open box price of $280. Below what I had planned on spending, so I'm pleased. Hopefully it treats me better than that dang Kenwood.

I'm looking to get a new receiver this weekend, and would like some help choosing. Background: I currently have a Kenwood VR-6070. It's certainly not high end, but it does what I ask of it. The reason I'm replacing it is I'm having problems with the power/standby. Everytime we have any sort...

Can anyone recommend alternate sources for quality cables? All cables..component, speaker wire, etc. I have to believe there is more out there than Monster

Definately a video card definciency. 64 is really a minimum for any of the good games these days. On the bright side, it's a fairly cheap, easy upgrade.

I guess the biggest reason I would look forward to a sequal is because of the "PG" nature of the movie. It seems like the 90s didn't really have a Star Wars or Indiana Jones type of series that could really leave an impression on young minds, and do it cleanly. I loved that this movie was so...

Just an update...I've answered my own question. I ended up buying ten PV DVDS, so far I've watched three. The third one was ATOC and it must of been hella scratched...it's going back. 90 day return policy so it's not a problem, what is a problem is having ten DVDs that I feel like I need to...

Interesting questions, let me try to answer them 1. The significance? It was the medium used by Samara to attack people. 2. Why not? Because the people who wrote the screenplay felt it was an effective means for Samara to inflict her bad will. 3. Samara made it. How? With supernatural...

Thanks for the list...There are some there that I haven't seen. The problem is, it's too expensive to watch these movies. Everytime I watch one, I find myself at the casino later that night:D Another movie that isn't really about poker, but has some pretty decent card playing is The...

Keep in mind that I knew that I wasn't buying top of the line when I purchased this stuff...How did I fare? Receiver: Kenwood VR-6070 TV: Toshiba 36HF72 DVD: Samsung DVD-P421 Speakers: Yamaha NS-P220 OK, after a few weeks on this forum (I wish it had been before I made the purchases)...

Here is a list of some of the titles that I found for 2/$20.Attack of the Clones (widescreen)Bourne Identity SEIce AgeTraining Day Just to name a few. These aren't old or obscure titles, they are some of the best movies that have come out in the last year or two. They come in original boxes...

Michael, that hit the nail on the head. I tried it and noticed a definate improvement in picture quality. Baby steps.... It's great to have a forum like where the "pros" still take the time to help out the "rookies". When I left the house one day to buy a DVD player, I never imagined the path...

I have to say that my ribs hurt the day after watching this, from laughing so hard. As far as rewatching, there are definately some scenes that are too gross to watch a second time...but they are outnumbered by the scenes that I could watch five times in a row laughing harder every time. The...
