My ideal HT setup would have to include this receiver along with an acoustically treated space that would really allow the atmos experience to shine. I would love to use the overhead speaker application, as this would really allow for the best sound localization or spacial placement for the...

I am wondering why Home Theater and UltimateAVMag do not have a review of the HSU ULS-15 or VTF-3 MK3 and the SVS PB13 Ultra and the PB12 Plus. I see that UltimateAVMag did a review of the VTF-3 back in 2002, but that is a long time ago. It is just a thought considering these two companies and...

This was originally a question to Robert, and he asked me to post it to the forum...thank you all for your help. In the message below I close with "suits my needs". I should probably more clearly define this. I have all Paradigm speakers...2 7se towers for fronts, 2 Mini Monitors for rears...

I was lucky and got my 3808CI from Amazon for $1299.99. I was wondering...how do I get the ability to use the 32 point Audyssey Pro? Thanks

In truth I was merely stating an observation regarding some reviews I have read, where the reviewer stated that the Pro-111FD would now become part of their test set-up and used to compare sources, such as DVD etc. and other displays. This is not my opinion. I am not a professional. I...

Hey, no problem Brett...thanks for your insightful and valuable contribution. I am always glad to read quality posts that add real value to the discussion and don't, in any way, attack any one for their contribution.

Some professional reviewers actually use the Kuro Elite as part of their test set-up. Imagine having a "reference" display in your home. Hands down...if you want the best in picture quality both in black levels, depth, color, shadow detail etc. etc. the list is endless then you only have one...

Now that is what I am talking about...thanks Douglas. It is great to hear about technologies, experiences and results based on expectations and real gut feelings. I can't wait to get my Pro-111FD calibrated!

Thank you for sharing. I completely defend calibration and am in support of it. I just wanted to hear from some of the people who have benefited from the procedure. Much is said about “seeing what the directors intended you to see” and I am on board with that. My questions are as...

I completely understand you and respect your opinion and position. Unfortunately, what really confuses me is that no one ever speaks to this subject except calibrators. Again...with respect, I am hoping that there would be a huge difference in results between a 15 minute or a 3 to 4 hour...

Just wondering what your thoughts are...thanks.

Gary, I think I have discovered that HDMI is how you get pure bitstream. Thanks

Hey Gregg, nice to hear from you. So if I get my Pioneer Pro-111FD professionally calibrated at 150hrs do I need to re-calibrate at 1 year? Aside from the earlier question, how often do you need to professionally calibrate displays? Hear is a real good question for you...how far off are these...

Thank you for your helpful responses. 150 hours is the recommended break-in per ISF. I love the idea of renting the DVE...super, thanks. After I master it I can buy it then re-use it when necessary.

Amazon customers complain about the same thing...go figure.
