Their looks were not exactly appealing either.

Factory refurb's can be a good deal if the price is right. I need to differentiate between refurbs and 'B' Stock. Factory refurbs, generally, carry same warranty as new sets and are free of blemishes.

I contacted 3 dealers telling them I was ready to purchase a Panasonic TH-65PX600U, but on condition that I would get the stand and optional speakers and requested a total for all three items. Two stores did not even respond, even after three emails. The third answered me after the second...

After reading many threads on "rainbows" caused by DLP's, I thought a point should be made. The DLP chip is not to blame for the "rainbow effect". The use of the color wheel in order to save costs (DLP chips cost more than LCD's) and use a single DLP chip is the culprit. Professional DLP...

If you were acustomed to listen to speakers with a midrange peak, then speakers with a flatter frequency response will sound....... flat.

Try WD-40 first to remove the glue, then isopropyl to remove the WD. Finish it with Windex.

Thank you, Wayne. Lots of good information you have provided. As why my preamps tone controls are not enough. 1- They affect all channels and therefore would EQ all 5 speakers. 2- I am using a Sunfire TGIII processor with a Sunfire Signature 5 channel amp (Mains and rears) and a Carver A-760...

I saw the Philips 32" and 37" LCD at Costco's and they looked REAL good. $1,495 for the 32". Both have ATSC tuners. Lot's of Web Dealers have them. Do a Google search. Good luck on your purchase.

There's no hard, fast answer here. Depends on the RF signal strength delivered by your antenna, cable or satellite receiver. In an analog system the picture will get noisy if the level drops below a certain point. This is also dependent on the tuner of the TV or other device. On a digital...

When you went thru the video menu; Was the color temperature set to high, medium or warm?

Most likely the TV set, but to be sure why not disconnect the tv from the surge protector and plug it straight into the AC outlet?

I get your point, Chris. I just re-read the original thread starter and this quote from Mike "(I was watching an Episode of Friends last night on DVD and Phoebe was wearing a bright red sweater and the saturation was excessive)." Makes a 99% candidate for a red push issue. As no reasonable...
