I have a TSU3000 that I wouldn't mind selling. How much were you thinking of paying?

Sounds good! Thanks.

My friend and I both own products using the VPL-VW11HT projection engine (he a projector, me a Grand Wega) and we cannot figure out how to properly calibrate these devices. I have AVIA, however, the instructional videos only seem to mention CRTs. What should we do?

Thanks Brian I'll check those things. Sounds like if its the power then it should go away in a day or so. The speaker wire I'm using is Monster XP, I think that should be fairly adequate, right? Jon

Just today I was listening to my system when I began to notice a very audible (and annoying) click coming from my center speaker (something leads me to believe the tweeter). It happens on multiple sources (HD sat and DVD). It's not obnoxiously loud, but is distracting enough to detract from...

Martin, I browse both this forum and Ars Technica, and while in their trading section I noticed a thread that you might be interested in. This guy (who I do not know) appears to be selling an RP82. http://arstechnica.infopop.net/OpenT...6&m=6140925445 Again, I don't know him or anything...

I'd like to call dibs on the BP2004's and the LCR 2002 for $1500 for my friend (whose HTF account is pending activation). You should recieve an email from [email protected] soon.

Since they are only ~$10, I think one of us with some free time needs to buy one, build it, and post some pics. Who knows? Maybe we will discover the DLP/CRT/LCD/Plasma killer we have all been waiting for.... Or maybe we will just get a really good laugh :)

I would forget about the Pioneer completeley, as it isn't even a competetor to the two Denons listed above. Pay little attention to THX Select badging, as most recievers in the $700-$1500 price range without it can decode and handle DD-EX and DTS-ES quite niceley. Also, I know the 2802 has 27...

Thanks guys - these are exactly what I was looking for. But damn! They are $$$ expensive $$$!!!

Being the clever, but illogical thinker that I am, I decided that it would be MUCH more economical to buy 500 ft of RG-6 and then terminate it appropriateley and use it for audio, video, coax, bnc, and basically everything. My problem is - the only thing I know how to terminate it in is threaded...

Also, both the DVD player and the DirecTV reciever should be connected to your Onkyo using either digital optical or digital coax for the best audio reproduction. NOTE: Some DirecTV recievers do not have a digital audio out. If this is the case, just use regular audio cables.

While Jack is right, I don't think you should have a problem feeding your DVD player through your reciever. The 600 has 50 mhz (might be more) component video switching bandwith. That is WAY more than one needs to pass a 480i picture to your set (I think 480i needs roughly 10-15 mhz). As far...

I guess I'll have to do an AB test one of these days. Thanks

I recently found two old 6 disc CD changers in my basement; one by Marantz and the other by Sharp. When setting them up, I noticed that they look very similar. Being the inquisitive type, I cracked them open, and sure enough, they were identical. The only difference I can see is the DAC. The...
