I have a JVC HTiB. Are you guys saying that it would be pointless to buy the Bose VCS-10 Center Channel Speaker? I have not seen a seperate JVC center speaker.

Chad, Thanks for the reply. I do no intend on doing anything in the service menu for right now. I hope to have someone professional come in and do it for me at some point though. Thanks again.

I have the Mitsubishi WS-65908 and it has a 64 point convergence setup. I am getting the new Digital Video Essentials DVD this week and will be calibrating with that as well. I was wondering does it matter if I do the 64 point convergence before or after the DVE? Also there is a main blue and a...

Jeremy, I watched Men In Black last night and it made it all the way through without cutting off at all. It could have been that MIB is not as quiet as the movie (The Others) that I was watching when I started this topic or (hopefully) it could be that we have solved the problem through all...

Jeremy, Thanks for your time and patience. I just verified all of the settings that you, suggested Input Att is for non digital sources so that one did not apply. I appreciate you taking the time out to look over the manual. I have done this several times before and some of the stuff simply...

Also something else to keep in mind is that the volume level for the front L and R speakers can not be adjusted. Only for the center and the rear L and R levels can be adjusted seperately. The front L and R speakers are adjusted by using balance control. That has to be the oddest thing I have...

Jeremy, Thanks for the link. I will certainly have a look at it. I also plan on buying the new calibration DVD that has been discussed in the software forum and a meter to test with as well. Yes that is correct. The lowest number is 0 and the highest is 50. I generally listen to DVDs...

Jeremy, Hi. Sorry if I came off as sounding frustrated. Although I do want this problem resolved I am not frustrated and certainly not with any of the members in this forum. Thanks for your replies and thanks for trying to help. Sometimes when people type it is hard to tell what state of mind...

Bill, Yes the mains and surrounds are set to small. I do not have a meter to calibrate with but even if I did I doubt I could make the needed adjustments with the rcvr. If I can then I guess I just don't have enough of an understanding of how to do it and do not expect it to be explained in...

I think this Y spliter may solve my problem. Can anyone tell me for sure. I will only be using one of the two male connections to go into my mono connection on my sub. Will I still get the boosted output gain that this device is supposed to provide? I have also been looking into some features...

If I get a Y spliter and go from the one Output on my amp to the spliter and then still only use ofne of the two males to go into the sub will I get the +db gain even without using both L and R? In other words can I use it just to gain some power? Also does anyone feel that another cable...

Brian, I am pretty sure that is the case but I will double-check to see for sure. Thanks for the suggestion Bill, I don't think the amp has the ability to switch between always on and auto :frowning: If it does I certainly would not mind having it that way. The more I think about it...

Bill, Two problems with that. For this inpout (the dvd) I already have the setting the for the sub on the rcvr all the way up. Secondly, and maybe I am not following you here, but my sub woofer only has one input and the rcvr only one out. There is no L and R.

This mainly seems to happen with my DVD player plkaying movies but not with audio CDs. Mainly I guess because there are times in the movie where low end is not produced. Maybe there is a setting on the dvd player that I am missing?

I have a JVC home theater in a box SRX 5020J and I am using the cables that come with it. This is a starter set for me and I eventually plan to upgrade piece by piece but for now this is what I have to work with. Anyway, the sub-woofer has auto standby and it cuts off way more then I am thinking...

Greg-TSL....Thanks for the link

I did make sure that was the case and it was already set to that mode. Thanks for the reply. Perhaps Burnout 2 was released without support. This has happened before where the boxart says it supports it but really doesn't I will have to check Acclaim to see if the game has it. For not I have...

There was once a thread on here that listed all games for these three consoles that supported 480P mode and above. Does anyone have that handy. Thanks Matt

I just purchased the component cables for PS2 and Burnout 2 says that it supports progressive Scan. I plugged in the cables to my Component input 2 that supports 480P mode and the picture comes up when I load the game but the indicator on the input does not switch to 480P it still displays 480i...

I have a MITS that has an input for 1080i mode. If I am plugged into that component input, will it downsample to 720P when I load the game?

Jason That is good to know because I plan on switching between my HDTV and 32" tv now that I have two sets of cables.

Nice!!!! Thanks for the reply.

Just wondering once I connect the cables to the HD Pack and then to my TV will I have to make any other adjustments to the XB. Is there a switch (like some DVD Players) to toggle between I/P? Are there any other menu choices besides Widescreen that have to be made in the main menu. I am at...

Ralph, Kandy... Thanks for the replies. I still have not purchased one but I am leaning towards the Onkyo HT-S650 now.

Bill, Thanks. if it comes in Black then I might have a better shot ;)

Bill, Thanks for the suggestion on the Sony but I already know how my wife would feel about the Silver system in our living room (try to argue with her if you want) ;)

Ralph...Which one is the new Onkyo? I would love to hear more about it as well.

Well I will have to go and listen to the Kenwood and the Onkyo now. Thanks for all of the suggestions and keep them coming if you have any others.

For the Kenwood fans out there can anyone tell me the major differences between the 205 and the 505 besides the price. Thanks

Does anyone have any links to reviews of these comparing the quality. I like the Kenwood and I have always liked Onkyo. Man my choice just got a lot harder. I may have to wait a few more weeks to see if anyone has any links to comparisons on these units. Thanks for all of the replies.
