    Any word on the 2nd part of the Projector article?

    Last year there was an article with 2 projector reviews, and it stated there would be a follow-up with some more reviews and comparisons. Is this ever going to happen? Just curious. Ken

    Going to build my first DIY sub

    I just saw that someone mentioned a Stryke Audio SAE 1201 for $100 U.S. and a 380 watt plate amp for $155. I don't see anything comparable to that at CSS unfortunately.

    Going to build my first DIY sub

    I see the prices you guys are mentioning on these parts (U.S. dollars I assume), and I wonder, is there anywhere in Canada that sells these types of things? I've been to Creative Sound Solutions web site, but I find the prices are too high. Any thoughts? Ken

    Sanyo Z1 settings

    I have a Z1 as well... Is the Misty Evening really as good as everyone says it is?

    How much, and where to find a VGA -> Component cabel

    I found a few things on Ebay. 15pin -> 5BNC. If I get BNC to RCA adapters, would that work, if I just use the 3 RGB connectors? It was $7!!

    My grey screen test.

    Dustin, where did you get your blackout cloth? I need to build a screen, I'm considering the Formica like Neil, but I wouldn't mind checking out the blackout as well.

    How much, and where to find a VGA -> Component cabel

    I tried Rhino, and they suggested avcable. It's a little more than I wanted to pay, but I don't have much of a choice!

    Panny PT-L300U vs. Sanyo PLV-Z1

    And the DVI input doesn't hurt either. I found the Z1 at HALF the cost of the Panny in Toronto, and even $1000 less thatn the 200U, so that was a no-brainer. I love the Z1, I barely notice any screen door, MUCH better than I expected. You're not making a bad decision either way, that's for sure.

    How much, and where to find a VGA -> Component cabel

    I'm in the Toronto area (we have power now!), and I am going to be getting HDTV through Rogers cable. The box from Rogers has component outputs only, as does my DVD player, and I don't want to have to switch the cable all the time. Can I get a VGA to Component adapter or something, without...

    Z1 versus L200?

    I have found the Z1 for $2100 Canadian, and the L200 for $1350 Canadian. This is probably a silly question but I assume the $1350 is a better deal?

    Equipment in Enclosed Closet...How do I get the Remotes to work?

    Does anyone know of a place in Canada, or Toronto specifically, where some of these things can be purchased? I haven't found anything at Radioshack. Ken

    Sharp Z90U vs. Panny 300U

    I can definately wait until September. My basement isn't even finished yet! I've found the Epson Powerlite S1 at Costco up here, so I may give it a try and see how it compares to the Infocus. It's an LCD projector, so no rainbows. Ken

    I wasn't aware that LCD's could suffer from burn in. Am I wrong? Ken

    Sharp Z90U vs. Panny 300U

    Hey all, Thanks for the comments, and getting back on topic. To update, I went to NBT Electronics and saw the Panny in action (Thanks John), and I was quite impressed. It was better than I thought it would be. Now, I have had the good fortune of being able to bring an Infocus X1 home for a...

    Sharp Z90U vs. Panny 300U

    Thanks for the info guys. One other projector has been thrown into the mix at the $4000 Canadian price range... The NEC LT-240. Any thoughts on that one, compared to the other two? Ken
