My ideal ATMOS setup is going to be this Denon X5200W 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AVR, my family and me.

My Samsung TV has a "DVD in" labeled input (Y, Pb and Pr), so it has a component input, but there is no text in the manual saying that it accepts a progressive scan signal. My actual DVD player has a component output but it is not a progressive scan DVD player. *sight* Well, it seems that...

I have a 29" Samsung TV. Its is a flat model. But it is not a HDTV model. If I buy a progressive scan DVD, comparing it to my actual DVD player (not progressive scan), do you think I will be able to tell any difference? I will be able to see any image improvement? Is it worth it? Or should...

Last night I tried to enter the menu (OSD MENU) to see if the speakers were turned off. The OSD appeared 1 second and then it disappeared. Every time I pressed the OSD button in my remote, it appeared but 1 second later it vanished. I couldn't do anything. Imagine my frustation. :frowning: I...

Chris, Thank you very much. I will try your suggestion as soon as possible. Bob, As I stated befor, my DVD player and my XBOX is in bistream mode, it is not in PCM mode. When I run a PCM signal, my HK detects it and runs in PCM mode. But, right now, my DVD player and my XBOX are running...

I hope you can help me with this problem. My HK AVR320 receiver detects the DTS and DOLBY signal but it doesnt delivers 5.1 sound. With a DTS movie, the HK panel turns on the DTS led, the LFE, center channel, surrounds and the left and front speakers but in the output, it only enlightens...

Thank you very much Wayne. Which stereo receiver brands should I be looking for?

This topic is about 100% music. No movies. I hope you can help me. I have four separate rooms that I want to fill with music. The rooms are: living room, dining room, garage and games room. The speaker cable is distributed in the walls, ceilings and floor but it is no visible. The speaker...

It is "dB". "d" comes from "deci". Mmhh, I dont know how to write/say it in english but in spanish it is the tenth part of a whole. "B" comes from Bell. Its a family name and it comes from Graham Bell.

I put the screw I made and now it is working ok. This is the email I received today from JBL support: "Thank you for your e-mail, We do not have the screws as stocked parts. We do not have information on the type of screw used in the speaker. We apologize for any inconvenience...

Thanks a lot for your response. Im designing a stand for my speakers thats why I needed to know which type of screw will fit in that hole. I finally found my "thread gauge" so I measured it. It was made to fit a 1/4" standard screw. Neil, JBL website dont have that information. I sent...

I have a pair of JBL N24II speakers. Do you know the specs for the screw that can be inserted in the back of the speaker? Do you know if it is 5/16 with a fine thread? Or which screw type will fit that hole? Thanks in advance.

I have no VCR but I have a lot of VHS and BETA tapes that I want to watch in my system. Well, to be honest, Im not worried about the BETA movies and tapes. I have a HK AVR320 receiver. I already have a DVD player so a VHS/DVD combo player is not what Im looking for. I want to buy a VHS...

Problem is going to be shipping and taxes fees. UPS quoted $250 USD for shipping the SA-WM40 to my office. Taxes are around 30%. So, if I buy the RAVA ($399) plus shipping ($250) and duties and taxes ($120), I end with a $769 sub. :frowning: Shipping and tax fees are killing.

If the dealer has a "12 month promotion without any interest" my budget can climb to the $600 USD frontier. I have one dealer that has the following line of subwoofers: CANTON, KLIPSCH, PARADIGM and THIEL. This dealer has the promotion. What do you think of a Paradigm sub? Which one should...
