I have a Pioneer KRP-600m, a Marantz SR5005 receiver, a Comcast Moto DCX3400 DVR and a PS3. Setup is PS3 and DVR hooked up to receiver via HDMI. Receiver to TV via HDMI. I've had blackouts, 2-3 seconds in duration, only on DVR. So I tried hooking the DVR directly via HDMI. Still blackouts. So...

Nice. Don't forget to calibrate, as has been mentioned, even if it's just a basic do it yourself with a test disc..

Hello Jana,   First off, $45 more per month extra is way off based on the usage you are talking about. An LCD is certainly more energy efficient than a plasma, but at 10 cents per kilowatt hour, a 50" 1080p plasma running 2 hours a day wouldn't crack $45 a year TOTAL.....   I logged on...

Bump....please buy me!

I'm going all in walls, and as a result I no longer need this custom built center channel speaker shelf. It is made out of oak, so it will not warp. It is painted a flat black. It's designed to fit a Sony 53HS30 (or a 10 or 20). I do not know if any other Sony set uses the same cabinet...

I have seen a few channels of DirecTV look really good. The channels I'm mainly interested in, NFL ST (for me) and locals (for my wife) aren't so hot. My analog cable has been very good, except for some noise bars rolling through the last couple of weeks. They're gone the last two days...

I just spoke to DirecTV about this package. It seems that you have to sign a 1 year contract at a minimum of $31.99 a month just to have the ability to order any other type of package. A few years ago, they had a package for $4.99 a month that consisted of program guides and some news...

I'm looking into setting our house up with a DirecTV Sat system; I've had DirecTV in the past, but only on one TV, and only for NFL Sunday Ticket. Now, we're settled in our new home, and I'm ready to dump ATT cable, which has been plauged with various reception problems that they have been...

See update above....

Pearl Harbor: Not EX, but has a accidental EX flag on the French soundtrack. JPIII : Is EX, and has a flag to auto engage....

We had the family over Christmas Eve, and my wife received Forrest Gump DVD as her grab bag gift. Later in the evening someone asked to see the HT in action, so I threw in Gump and went to the Vietnam scenes. My Mom say, "Oh, I've seen this movie before!" Yeah, on a VCR through the TV's...

I'm curious about the EX flag question. My owner's manual states that the unit will auto detect EX soundtracks if the flag is present (discs made after Fall 2001.) I have Pearl Harbor, and it does not go to EX mode; I must engage it manually. Are there different versions of this disc? I couldn't...

Thanks guys! Oak it is....now it's off to the workshop...I'll post some pics when I'm done. Thanks

I'm considering adding the side surrounds to my current setup, but I have a placement problem. The entire right side of my listening position is open to the kitchen area. I'm currently running 5.1, with the rears consisting of Paradigm Ref in-wall speakers mounted about 7 feet behind the...

I need to constuct a shelf for the top of my Sony 53HS30 to place my Paradigm Ref Center, as the top of this TV is only 6.25" deep. I want a material that won't warp over time; is oak a good choice for this, or would MDF or something else work better? Thanks

I picked up a Sony DVP-NS900V DVD player yesterday, and spent the day watching a couple of movies and listening to some CDs. Overall, I am extemely satisfied with this player, both audio (hooked to a Marantz SR18EX/Paradigm Studio 100/Velodyne HGS12) and video (hooked to a Sony 53HS30). Last...

Yeah, my 200x3 and my a250 both did that....I had them hooked up to Klipsch speakers, and with the high efficiency of them, that noise was REALLY loud.... All the other Acurus amps at the dealer did it, Modial told me it was normal.....so I never worried about it. Oh, and I agree, leaving them...
