    DLP rainbows

    I saw a rainbow once in BB on a Sammy. I don't remember the circumstances. I now own a Sammy, but haven't seen them at all. Some see them, some don't. Good luck! :emoji_thumbsup: ;)

    Samsung DLP TVs

    I've been waiting on the 1080 61". The wife and I got tired of the wait and we knew we wanted a bigger set for the bedroom so with a combination of CC sale, 10% off coupon and a GC, we bought one of the 42" Sammies. It's in the living room now, but will be moved to the bedroom once we do get a...

    Why are R2/R3 discs color while R1 B&W?

    Why are US DVDs released in their original B&W format, but full color in some Asian countries? Example, fight scene in "Kill Bill" and "The Man Who Wasn't There". Is this a choice by the director, the studio or some sort of Asian film requirement?

    Steve Vai - Live At The Astoria

    Marty, it is a DVD set that hit the stores last tuesday. I think the audio is great. I had been messing around with my new 563 last weekend and need to tweak it a bit more, but does it seem like the rear channel is a tad too loud. Not much, just a little. If not, then I need to recalibrate...

    Last Samurai Soundtrack Question

    The music in the trailers that I've seen is a track from Zimmer's other wonderful soundtrack, 'Gladiator'. I still haven't seen TLS. The only reason I want to see it is for Zimmer's music. :emoji_thumbsup:

    Fooling yourself about 5.1 soundtracks...

    David or anyone else, I remember the talk about DTS boosting their levels, but I haven't been reading htf.com as religiously as I used to. Does anyone have more info, links, or papers on this?

    Dream Theater - Train of Thought

    Frequent use? Haven't they only done that twice now? So what? Up until Jordan joined the band JP had been playing in the major scale and it's mode's for the past decade and a half. It's a good thing and fits the song quite well considering the lyrics. Overall, I dig the new album. Took me a...

    Black Hawk Down Music question

    Going through old post, I had to bring this back to the top. Sean, buy the soundtrack! It has several great pieces on it. I love the blend of ethnic instruments and the modern keyboards and distorted guitar. It works so well for the film. :emoji_thumbsup:

    The Matrix Reloaded (2003)

    I'm a little hesitant to post this for fear of ridicule and backlash. When The Animatrix was released I had an idea. After watching Reloaded Tuesday evening I had it again. I offer no proof or reasoning. Could Neo really be a machine that the Zionist captured? Maybe the first film is watching...

    SW Faceoff: Sony WM-40 vs. Audiosource SW-15

    Aaron, Sony used to sell a sub (the SAWM40) for $125 shipped from the my.sony.com website. You had to sign up and get some 'Sony Points', but it was a good sub for a super price. Quite a few of us bought one (or two!) and have been happy with them. The specs appear to be the same, but I...

    DC Area theaters

    The Uptown is a good theater. I saw Contact there. Chris, there is a THX certified room in the Springfield Mall theater. It used to sound awesome, but last few times I went there the sub sounded like it was bottoming out. Jeff, does The Senator play older movies?

    Does anyone know if there are any theaters in the DC area that screen older films? I've always wanted to see older releases how they were originally presented.
