    polk psw 350 vs sony wm40 vs velodyne cht-10?

    Sounds like conflicting priorities here. How much longer before you upgrade the mains? The brands you mention would be a fair step up from what you have now. Do you really want to buy a lower end sub now, knowing that you'll want to replace it in short order? Regarding your

    Polk RT800i, trying them but they seem muffled.

    Well, here's another opinion for you: :) I'm running Polks all around for my HT system (CS400, FX500, older RT10 mains). About a year ago I looked into replacing my mains to voice match the tweeters, but I didn't like the RT800's when I listened to them. They just sounded muffled compared to...

    CowBoy Bebop

    I hope Knockin' does well - I'd love to have some more Bebop around! Let's hope they do the disc right! FYI: Fry's has the Bebop perfect collection on sale this weekend for $129.99 - a great deal if you haven't picked them up yet. (And yeah, I know this isn't the discount forum - but more...

    Osama Bin Laden DVD: improved sound/picture and great extras! (humor)

    What about the Harrison Ford voice-over and alternate "happy ending" shot for the Middle-Eastern market? I'm tired of all this revistionist crap! I want the original theatrical run. :D

    Day of the Triffids...?

    On comparing the film to Wyndham's novel, it's rather like what happens to a Crichton novel when it becomes a film: most of the details are lost, characters change or disappear entirely, plot threads are altered, and you're basically left with a few major scenes hacked together into a...

    Attn. Denon AVR-3300 Owners - Need some info

    That's not a bug, it's a feature! :) If you check your manual on pgs. 41 and 42 (look for the little boxes), it states that "digital sources are not output from the REC SOURCE or audio output jacks." Just to be sure, I checked my setup (3300 w/ Sony S330) and got the same results you did...

    BLOCKBUSTER striles again: Pan & Scam GRINCH only

    Yeah, not much may come of it, but companies do keep track of feedback from their customers. If enough people start sending in those cards on a regular basis, the message will get across. It may not be enough to stop the Pan&Scam tide, but it may be enough to ensure that there are always a few...

    Star Trek: The Motion Picture Arrives

    OK, just finished my first time through the new STTMP:DE disc, and I have to say that it was freakin' awesome! :) I saw this film opening weekend back in '79 when it came out and still remember the mixed feelings I walked out of the theater with. On the one hand, it was great to have Star...

    Polk RT1000/800i's/CS400i/FX500i

    My HT system uses several of the speakers you mentioned and I am quite happy with its sound, performance & value. Mains: RT-10 (older Polks that I still love for 2 channel) Center: CS400 Surround: Fx500 Sub: Velo CT-120 (good, but saving up for an SVS :)) For your mains, I would recommend...

    Help Recommend Projector for Middle School!

    The school I work at is planning to purchase a projector system in the next few months. Not being up on the latest and greatest in this area of HT, I thought I would appeal to the wisdom here at HTF. Primary use will be a 50/50 mix between video/dvd presentation in a darkened auditorium...

    animated Tick on dvd?

    OK, now don't get too excited over all this, "just put it in your happy box!" This would become the centerpiece of my 300+ DVD collection. Hell, I'd have to buy gift sets for friends and family. We *must* have The Tick on DVD! From The Tick's latest HT Review: "Slide...

    >>>> Spoke to Warner Rep today concerning WONKA & CATS - here is what I was told.....

    Once again, thanks to Ron for contacting Warner and getting us an updated statement on their position. I'm encouraged that they are at least aware of the furor generated over the Wonka disc and are possibly considering a remedy. I think sales figures will show that they need one. On the...
