    Stream Video from Netflix, Amazon Instant Video and Local Movies from Tablet to TV

    Thanks for the info. Sorry, about not knowing about the WiDi part for the tablet. I'm just now doing research on this as I just thought how nice it would be do that, but that's pretty dissappointing they don't have any available yet. I would have thought tablets with WiDi would have already...

    Stream Video from Netflix, Amazon Instant Video and Local Movies from Tablet to TV

    Thanks for the quick response. That does look like it will work, although I'm not sure if the latitude 10 can do Intel WiDi. Do you know if it would work with it? If not, do you have a recommendation on a tablet that could do the job? Thanks again.

    Pixelation in Movies

    Hello All, I had just set up my new Sharp XV-Z12000 and am really admiring the picture quality. I notice though at times there is some pixelation in the picture, which seems to occur on smaller images in the picuter with brighter colors and sometimes occurs on fast moving objects. I've...

    Manufacturer Restrictions Question

    I appreciate your repsonses. I can see that by giving the RX-Z9 free reign to be sold wherever on the net (by people who don't care about the people or product that their selling) could devalue their brand image. I would think though that Yamaha's restriction of not honoring their warranty...

    Manufacturer Restrictions Question

    Hello All, After researching possible receivers to buy, I had narrowed my choice down to the Yamaha RX-Z9. I was in the process of looking for on-line retailers, to find the best price, and found that the authorized dealers that carry the RX-Z9 can't ship the receiver out of their local area...

    Surround Sound Speaker Placement

    Hello, Thanks for the response. I was planning on doing a 7.1 system. When you said 9 speakers, are you saying to use a surround speaker for each row by splitting the signal coming from the receiver? Thanks, Robert

    Surround Sound Speaker Placement

    Hello all, I am running in-wall speaker wire and was wondering what the correct placement would be for surround sound speakers. I will have two rows of seats about 3-4 feet apart. Would the surrounds be placed on the walls directly in the middle of the two rows or would they be placed...
