    Is there such a thing as a 4:3 TV with HDMI?

    Dumb question but was curious. I have a weird situation that kinda warrants it but I don't think it exists.

    Need help on picking acoustic ceiling tiles...

    My home theater is in my basement and we recently moved my son into a room above it (not directly but close enough to probably bother him). My basement is pretty much split into two open rooms. The ceiling is approx 8 feet up where the sound equipment & TV is and the room my son is above (it...

    Best price on a decent HDMI to DVI cable?

    I was looking to connect my new Voom box to my smaller HD with HDMI to DVI since the Voom only has DVI. I was looking at Best Buy and was shocked to see these cable going for around 150 big ones! They only carry the Monster brand so I know a lot of that price is the name. Anyone had any luck...

    30 inch tube HDTVs: Samsung (DVI) Vs. Philips (HDMI) questions

    I was looking into putting an extra HDTV in the upstairs living room & was looking at the Samsung 30 inch TX-P3064W (roughly $850)and the Philips 30 inch 30PW8402 (roughly $750). I was trying to decide between the two (Sears has them on sale) and I could get them for a little cheaper than the...

    My review of The World Of Sid & Marty Krofft boxset

    I bought this the other day & have never seen a review for it so I thought I would just jot some thoughts down about the set for those of you who might have an interest (though if any of you have an interest, you probably already own it). I, like many of you, grew up when Saturday morning...

    Okay...who do I bug to get more HD for my TV?

    I currently have Charter Cable & have had their HD service for a little over a year. When I started they were only carrying HBO-HD & Showtime-HD. They added Discovery Channel HD back around the first of the year but dammit...I want more! I currently use a receiver & antenna to get HD off the...

    Sony RM-AV3000 versus Home Theater Master MX-500?

    I am stressing over which one to purchase since both can be had online for about the same price. I have a pretty nice home theater but a remote has always been the last thing on my mind. A buddy has the Sony 2100 remote and was telling me about the things it can do and that I could toss my...

    Recording from DVD-Audio questions...

    Just curious if any of you have tried this. The only reason I even bring it up is I would like to have a copy of some of the discs that I buy on DVD-Audio for my car without having to buy a whole different cd. I know that recording the 5.1 audio track is impossible (or is supposed to be). I...

    Need suggestions about how to price this home theater set...

    I recently upgraded my entire home theater and I am going to try to sell my old stuff thru the classifieds. I want to try selling all as one set but I might have to break it up. I could only find a couple of these items on Ebay (to get an idea of value) so I thought I would get some opinions...

    Picture in Picture Question....

    I recently bought a Mitsubishi WS-65411 & it has PIP. I have never had a TV with this feature before so it is rather new to me. My question is: Do you have to have another tuner/vcr hooked up to get separate PIP off cable? I have tried hooking it up every way possible thru the digital cable...

    Mitsubishi WS-65311 VS. WS-65411???

    I am looking at purchasing one of these over the weekend & wanted some opinions. The only major difference I see between the two is "Quadfield Focus" & 200 bucks. The question is...is it worth the difference. One place says yes, the other says no. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
