    Dish/DirecTV HD reception

    Hello everyone, I'll be moving into our first house in about 22 days - I'd like to get either Dish or DirecTV - whichever offers the most HD programming, and whichever I can actually use in my location. So far, from what I can gather, both services require a clear line of sight to the...

    CRT color lens filters? Can we add these to improve the picture?

    Hello everyone, I know Toshiba (and maybe Hitachi) allready have red/green lens filters with their sets, to improve the "purity" of the light the phosphor emits. However, I believe Sony and the majority of other manufacturers do not have such filters. Would it be possible to find such...

    MPEG decoders that can "fix" poorly flagged DVD's

    Does anyone know where I can find some JBL HLS speakers?

    Hello, Right now, my system is made up of JBL HLS speakers - 620's for the mains, 615's for the rears, and the HLS center. I recently purchased the Denon 3802, and I'd like to find another smaller (610, 810) speaker(s) for the rear surround. The problem is, the HLS series is almost impossible...

    Panasonic RP-61 not being released?

    I heard that Panasonic has dropped the RP-61, and will not be shipping the unit. I guess they feel that it would lower the sales of the RP-91's. So I guess it's a pick between RP-91 and RP56? -Ryan Dinan ------------------ Link Removed

    Do ALL rear-projection HDTV's use 4:3 CRT's?

    Hi everyone, I was just curious as to if all rear-projection HDTV's -whether they be in a 16:9 aspect or 4:3 aspect - Use 4:3 CRT's. Obviously, direct-view 16:9 sets are a 16:9 tube. Do newer 16:9 sets now use 3 separate 16:9 shaped CRT's, or are they all 4:3? Thanks! -Ryan Dinan...
