    Well, I am planning on picking up one of these on Friday. I opted for the Touring Package with Acura's Navigation system. I went with the black exterior with the tan leather interior.

    Dot Crawl.....Cause and Cure!!

    I think I know what this is. My questions are simple: What causes this? and How do you get rid of it? I have the contrast turned down, but I still see this effect every now and then. (Not very often). Would an ISF calibration cure it? Please help, as I am mystified on this one....Thanks!!:D

    Denon's @#$%^*! FM antenna......

    I want to replace this useless piece of crap. It is just way too fickle in where it needs to be located. Who makes a good FM antenna that will utilize the "D-shaped" plug on the back of the 3801/3802? How do the new antennas hook up to the receiver if they don't have this....? Help me...

    That darn FM antenna.....

    I have a Denon 3802, and we all know that it lacks a bit of pulling power for weak FM stations. Question(s): What kind of antenna can I get that will help out? I was wanting to spend less than $30, and be able to plug it into the little "D-shaped" outlet on the back of the reciever. Do...

    RAT SHACK component video cables....(Flame retardant standing by...!)

    I don't really want to incite a firestorm here, but are these Radio Shack component cables comparable to Monster 2 cables? Am I going to see a big difference by getting better (?) cables from my DVD player to my reciever/ RPTV? (There will be a 6' run from the player to the Denon, then 6' to...

    Kid's DVD player......let's get cheap!!

    You know how it works: Upgrade to main HT.....old stuff to bedroom HT. I am looking for recomendations for a cheap DVD player for the kid's game/play room. Video quality is not that important. Interlaced only is fine. No need for DD/DTS processing. Simplicity is a plus...

    Plasma Screen TV Question! How 'bout it?

    All Right, I think I have decided to go with one of these because of the Spouse Approval Factor. She doesn't like to idea of a screen on the ceiling, or a different colored wall. Besides, light control is going to be a problem in this room. (So Front Projection is out for now). An RPTV set...

    The new house is finished, and I am going to buy a RPTV. (Later I may add a screen and get a FPTV.....!) But for now, I need some help. I am looking towards getting a 65" Mits. (16x9) I can deal with the red push issue easily enough. But I have heard that the internal line doubler is trash...

    Is this the BEST "Stretch Mode" ?

    I was looking to buy a Mits 65" RPTV. I checked out the stretched mode with a standard 4:3 local broadcast. I did not like how it distorted the image. What manufacturer has the best stretch mode for viewing 4:3 signals on a 16:9 set? Please give your opinions, I am confused. The...
