    Considering a Samsung DLP?

    I have a 61" Sammy DLP. I have been very satisfied and about the only thing that I'll buy next will be a projector and a screen I can measure in FEET! (in any display, remember it can only be as good as your source, the built in Faroudja Dcdi helps with sdtv and HD of course is brilliant)

    Samsung DLP Plus Video Scaler?

    I pulled my wife's Briteview off her LCD and put it on MY (hehe) 61" Sammy DLP and it was better at handling SDTV. For DVD I use Denon's 5900 via DVI and of course with some tweaks it rocks.....I would think using like KDS' Leeza outputting in an appropriate 1:1 pixel mapping 4:3 material would...

    Denon 5900 / Sudden Closed Captions Display

    New info: Check your firmware.... it should read: Make Date 1015 ESS 6334-1 DRV 030825 SYS 6542-1 DSP1 6332 DSP2 6333 Many units late and early manufacture date have old firmware. Contact Denon for the update. I have DSP2 0020. I don't know if it will fix it but it's at least...

    Denon 5900 / Sudden Closed Captions Display

    I tried their customer technical service email twice....both returned. I would assume the DVI firmware would have all the latest in it.

    Denon 5900 / Sudden Closed Captions Display

    I recently got the 5900 and did the upgrade with no problem. Connected to Sammy DLP via DVI set @ 720p. During playback on 3 different DVD's the appropriate closed captions for the scene suddenly came up on the display. I rolled the disk back each time and replayed and it didn't happen again...

    Speaker Wire Life

    Does speaker wire have a life? Mine is 4 year old monster high res xp and I'm doing some changes. Good time to replace wire or a waste of money?

    speaker wire length?

    I don't remember where I read it but when I was setting up my Def Tech's I read to make them the same. I run my mains and rear effects the same length to the inch....(I get bored)

    Receiver; to use as switch or not? DVI?

    I havn't seen any receivers with DVI connections to maintain the best possible connection from the component to maintain the receiver as the switch. I too do direct connections to the display, too bad there aren't any high end receivers with strictly audio connections or manufactured both ways...

    Receiver; to use as switch or not? DVI?

    OK, This could be strictly a bunch of opinions or personal preference but here goes.... Should one put all video sources through the receiver and use it as a switch if possible or only audio and do all direct connects from each video component to the monitor and switch both as necessary...
