Howdy. I'm considering a purchase of antique furniture for my flat panel device storage. The problem I face is that I don't want to have the doors open to control the units. Is there anyway around this problem? There are multiple shelves, multiple devices. Thanks. Chris
The lack of specs available is exactly why I posted. Neither case says what the specs are and as such I am hoping someone knows the answer... ;) /chris
Howdy. My local shack salesman claimed the dirty little secret that there is no difference between the Gold Series Stereo Audio/Video cable and the Gold Series Component Video cable, except $35. I went in there to buy components to build my own component video cable (I already have RG6), and...
I am considering the Cyberhome CH-DVD 500. It is $65 at Fry's, has a front display, and measures near the width of my current components (16 12/16 in.). Based on some reading, it supports most anything you throw at it. Thanks for sending me down the Cyberhome line. Presently, I'm leaning...
It's been a while since someone posted about the HT-S660. Things been going swell with it? I presume that since it was a low-end system, a low-end DVD player was matched. What would you recommend that plays DVD-R/-RW, too? Thanks! /chris
Thanks for the quick replies. Eric, I checked Pioneer's website for the two products and neither are listed as current proucts. I found the A/V receiver under their "older models", but couldn't find mention of the DV-260 DVD player, and Froogle only showed it at wal-mart.com (out of stock) and...
Howdy. I'm looking to setup a HT system in the bedroom. With such a small budget ($500), I know there are some sacrifices I'll have to make. Whether it is an HTiB or separate components doesn't matter much, presuming it meets my requirements. At a minimum, I want a 5.1 configuration with a...
Howdy. I too am in the market for a bedroom HTiB. Based on your feedback with regards to the Pioneer line, I am considering a Pioneer HTD-530DV. For those that have the HTZ-430DV, can the satellites be mounted on the wall? My one concern with this system is that passive subwoofer. I don't...
Howdy. I'm starting to shop for a rear projection 16:9 display. It seems that most (all?) of them lose color vibrancy unless you sit directly in front of them. Is this what I can expect from rear projection TVs? (BTW, if anyone has a good reference for rear project newbies, I would...
Howdy.
Arguably, DTS is better than Dolby Digital. Granted, this is a matter of personal preference, but hopefully my question can still be answered.
I have a 5.1 setup. Whenever given the option of DTS on my DVDs, I usually prefer it. Some of my DVDs support Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS ES...
Strangely enough, I can't say for certain. The TV that I watched was DVD's, other than Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I noticed it the first time (I think) on the season 5 finale. The screen blanked in one bright moment. Conversing with co-workers, they also said that it blanked for them, too, at...
Howdy.
I have had my A/V receiver for about a year. It is the Denon 3801. I have the VCR and DVD player going into it (coax and S-Video, respectively) and outputing to the TV appropriately.
I have noticed that on flashy scenes on TV/VCR (the TV goes through the VCR first), the TV loses...
