Amazon is not taking any further orders for the 4K Steelbook as of now. I'm wondering if reported problems with some of the Theatrical discs may be holding things up? Anyway, I've got the older Bootleg Cut on DVD and also a Blu-Ray version, so it's not critical but was looking forward to the 4K.
A 50" or larger 1080P plasma would be my choice. I have a 56" Samsung 1080P DLP in my basement home theater, and it's a very nice tv with a great picture. However, my 50" Panasonic 720P plasma in the family room has a more even picture (light output is more consistent from edge to edge). DLPs...
Sold pending receipt of payment!!!!!!
I have this up for sale on another site, but I'll cancel it there if any HTF folks want this.
I bought this in early 2002 as a backup to my RP91, which I thought was having issues, but fortunately it wasn't (connector issue). I kept this packed in the...
Just had a friend cut and paste a blurb about a Sony press release "Sony announced today they are on the verge of resurrecting the Trinitron name for a new line of cathode ray based widescreen high definition TVs. The TVs will have more in common technologically with the small FD series...
I'd save up a little more money if $600 is truly your limit. The local Brandsmart here in Atlanta has a 42" Panasonic plasma & also a 42" Samsung plasma, both priced at $698. They've got a 32" Toshiba LCD for $498. The store is local to Georgia and S. Florida and handles a lot of closeout items...
You can get a decent picture with a non-HD digital signal on an HDTV. When Comcast went all digital in my area, the picture quality improved noticably on standard channels, but they still won't be mistaken for HD. An upconverting player will produce a very good picture on an HDTV. I doubt...
Amazon & OneCall are probably my two favorite online retailers. I bought a 56" DLP TV from Amazon and didn't have any problems. OneCall has always been a very reliable online dealer and I've bought a lot of electronics from them, but not a TV. I've also bought a good bit of stuff from...
I don't have this particular model, but I do have 3 Panasonic plasma TVs currently in use that I purchased over the last 3 years, and I'm very satisfied with all of them. Panasonic makes top notch plasmas, I say go for it.
Depends a lot on the state where the property is located. There are procedures that have to be followed and in some states it can take 2 or 3 times longer to close than in others.
Edit: This is apparently from Canada, not California, got my Ontario CAs mixied up. So blame it on Canada (and maybe Anne Murray too). Sorry for the mistake in the header. Colleen Leduc has an 11 year old daughter, Victoria Leduc, who is non-verbal with severe autism. Colleen was referred to...
The outlet is ok, everything else is working that's plugged into that box, and I've also switched plugs on the outlet, still no go. I've got someone coming tomorrow to look at it and give me an estimate (if they can determine what's wrong). Could be a fuse, or like you're saying, something a lot...
My wife said she had the remote in her lap when the cat jumped up. She grabbed at the remote and caught it as it fell, then the TV went dead. I've unplugged the TV, left it unplugged for 15 minutes or so, and plugged it back in, nothing at all. The power light on the front isn't on, isn't...
I've been a big fan of rear projection tvs, had a Toshiba TW56X81 that I got in late 1999 and now have a Samsung 56" 1080P DLP (regular model, not LED). I also have a 50" 720P Panasonic plasma in the family room. Overall, I'd go with a plasma. I think the picture is smoother on a plasma, and...
Burn-in really isn't a factor anymore with the current plasmas as far as regular TV viewing, it's not something I'd base a purchasing decision on. Also, the stretch modes have gotten very good, which will eliminate black bars in any case. They usually stretch the sides more than the center, and...
Amazon through Tiger Direct has a 65" 1080P Toshiba DLP for $1300, doesn't say refurbished. Amazon.com: Toshiba TALEN 65HM167 65" 1080p DLP HDTV: Electronics
I may be shipping a used guitar to Canada from the U.S (ebay transaction). I'm trying to determine what Custom's documents I'd need. I've done some research on the 'net, but most of the info seems geared toward manufacturers doing business in Canada. Anyone shipped anything recently?
Keep checking back after you order for price drops. I ordered a Samsung DLP TV for $1499, checked back a couple of weeks later and it had dropped to $1399. I called Amazon and received a $100 credit without any hassle at all. Same deal today. I had ordered a digital camera for $185 and received...
Go back and check the Sony manual again. It may be telling you that you need to shut off the audio going to the TV within the receiver (not shutting off the TV speakers on the TV). Could be that the Sony amp has the option of routing the sound to either the TV or to the surround speakers...
Ok, I misread how you had your system connected. Try running HDMI from the A2 to the 247, then HDMI out from the 247 to the TV. See what kind of audio you get doing this. In the A2 audio menu you need to have Digital Out HDMI set to Auto. FYI, I have a Panasonic 42" 75U, and on page 41 of...
I've have two plasmas that are wall mounted. In both cases I was lucky enough to have a closet on the the other side of the wall. I put my dvd players and cable boxes in the closet, ran the cables through the wall and bought infrared/radio frequency converters and receivers so I could pass the...
If you're receiver won't accept the higher level audio formats (DD+ TrueHD, etc) from the A2 over hdmi, then your optical connection will generate high quality DTS. As far as your problem with not knowing which speaker is which. I'd just plug one at a time into a speaker connection and play...
When you say the stand is not included with the Panasonic, are you talking about the basic pedestal stand that comes with most plasmas? If so, the specs at OneCall on the Panasonic say 'pedestal stand included'. I put the link below to the specs page with the blurb about the pedestal...
From doing a quick check of the HK website, it looks like the 247 will convert analog signals to 720P digital signals and send them over the HDMI connection to your tv. This means if you plug in a DVD player using component cables to the 247, you will only have to have one HDMI cable going from...
I purchased one of the 605 refurb units from Shoponkyo about 10 days ago. When I received it and got it hooked up, my Samsung DLP wouldn't accept the video from my Tosh A2 player going through the 605 via hdmi. I played with every setting on the 605 and A2 I could find, but no luck. I bought a...
Right now, the Onkyo 605 is pretty popular as far as a budget priced receiver (budget priced being a relative term). You can find it for $400-$450 new, and shoponkyo.com has it for around $300 refurbished (you have to be a member to see the lower price, and it comes and goes as far as...
I'd go with 4 for 7.1 since you're going to running wire anyway. I just got through running wire for two rear surrounds for my older 5.1 receiver, then almost immediately upgraded to a 7.1 receiver and am now thinking of buying a couple more speakers, running more wire, etc. I wish I had just...
As far as I know, Samsung is the only maker using LEDs in DLPs. Akai was supposed to have some LED based DLP sets, but I haven't seen or read anything anything on them for a long time. You don't have to do convergence on any type of DLP set. There are a number of reviews of the Samsung sets...
To state the obvious, standard def picture quality on any hi-def display is very dependent on the incoming signal. Not to say that some displays don't handle SD better than others, however, I've had two different brands of crt rear projection sets in the past, Toshiba and Samsung, and I...
