I have only one power outlet on my receiver. I was wondering could I plug a powerstip into this outlet, and then plug a bunch of components into the strip? I like the fact when you power on the receiver all the devices will power on (ie. DVD player, Cable Box, TV, etc...). I will plug the...

Garrett Lundy, would you get the waranty? oharag

I just bought a RPTV from Circuitcity. I was talked into purchasing the 4 year service plan. Seemed reasonible at $399. Got it on my charge card which is interest free for 12 months. Now I'm wondering if I should have purchased this warranty. I figured that it was such a large (and fairly...

Patrick Sun, good point. I have to think about that! oharag

Roy Van Nostrand, I ended up buying the extended warranty for four years. I figured I was getting it free with all the rebates and gift cards they were giving away. I'm like you I wanted to believe the one year rule with electronics, but in this case with such an expensive purchase I figured...

John Pine, the runs to the rear are approximately 20' (give or take 3-5 feet). I haven't had a chance to unpack this system yet unfortunately. My HDTV is coming tomorrow. I'll be spending the next couple of days plugging and unplugging wires/cables :) I was amazed to see that this Onkyo...

Thanks Wayde_R for the reply.

Hi. I have a question about my living configuration and how best to setup a 6.1 speaker system. I have an L-shaped couch configuration. I recently purchased a 6.1 HTIB. The rear speakers are I believe direct fire. How is it best to setup the rears? Obviously the center rear speaker would most...

Just bought one today. Little disappointed with the size of this set compared to the WX version, but this deal makes this set much cheaper. I went ahead and purchased the $399 4 year warranty. With the price reduction plus the $250 rebate on the set I guess I'm getting the warranty for free. I...

I went to Circuitcity and purchased the following: Panasonic PT53TW53 $1,549.00 plus a $250 mail in rebate plus a $100 gift card! Onkyo HTS760 HTIB $449.99 (10% off with TV purchase) plus $50 rebate plus $50 gift card! For the price I couldn't beat this offer. On top of this I got 12...

WOW, thanks Jason Charlton for the excellent response. Thanks Harold Southard for the info on the Panny. So it seems I'm at least covered for both sets if I receive a 720P signal. I guess I'll go and check out both sets at CC. Harold Southard any thoughts on the stretch modes for the Panny...

What's the deal with Costco? Do you have to be a member to shop there? I went on their website, but this TV is not listed. Are these in store specials, and may not be offered in all regions? Does Costco sell refurbed stuff, or this new out of the box? Thanks oharag

Harold Southard, Cripers, there always something new added in there to make the decision that much harder ;) I have not heard of this cablecard deal. What other TVs offer this feature (besides the Panny you just mentioned)? Okay if everyone had a choice between the following, which...

Oh, also what is HDMI??? How does this affect me? oharag

Hi everyone. I was hoping you could narrow down my search for a rear projection HD-Reay Widescreen TV. Here's what I'm looking for: - at most 50 inches (looking for a 46" or 47"). - rear projection - decent amount of inputs - HDTV Ready (I'll get my decoding from a settop box or satellite)...

Okay, could anyone quickly list positives/negatives of the multiple screen technologies out there? These are Rear Projection, Front Projection, Plasma, and LCD. I'm not too interested in future technologies as of yet (Oganic LCD and NanoTubes). What I'm getting at is what are the major...
