Thanks, I will email your post to my friend. Not sure about the exact budget but Im sure that with the amount of time needed to have a house built, he can start setting aside a reasonable budget for a recommended set up.

My friend is in the process of building a house. He is planning to have 3 areas of his house to have music. Front porch, Rear deck, and living room. What would be the most basic, simplest setup/equipment as far as receiver/amps? A receiver with 2 room capability and additional amp for the 3rd...

This happened to me like 6-8 years ago. I remember having to change the polarity switch somewhere and also someone suggested that i may have added equipment that is not "shielded". Anyway, I was in the process of moving so I disconnected everything, moved to a new house, reconnected then it...

Thanks so much Steph. Mystery solved. I can now plan to get the right receiver for my exact needs. Little overlooked details like conversion and upconversion would really make a huge difference. Not to mention the "macross" typo, hahaha. I really need to brush up on my AV lingo so I can get my...

Stephen, one clarification on my posts. I meant analog conversion and not necessarilly "upconversion" . As long as all signals from my video souces can use one cable (HDMI) from receiver to my SOny Bravia 32" LCD would be sufficient for me. I correct myself, sorry. Is the 790/1910 still be the...

Thanks, Stephen. I'm going to start planning and saving for the Denon 790/1910. We have one of the Sony Universal Remote with the "macross" feature like you mentioned that will turn on several sources with 1 button. Otherwise, there will be like 10 remotes laying around. The "one cable from...

this is exactly my problem, having way too many cables from the receiver to the TV. Especially, the other people in the house dont know to switch outputs on the TV. It really is a nightmare. IF i can only have one cable, HDMI connecting the receiver to the TV it would simplify things, more...

I am looking for an entry level receiver, preferable Harman Kardon, Denon, or Onkyo (not in any order) that would upscale analog video sources (still have the VHS, old Video8 camcorder, etc) through its HDMI monitor out. My other sources are PS3, Xbox 360, DVD player (chinese that plays every...

Wow, this is exactly what im looking for. One quick question though, do you know if this player can read DVD+R media well? I have a bunch where only my Xbox 360 can read. A few of my DVD players, all of them labled can ready any media are unable to read them.

i am looking for a HDMI connection upconverting, reasonable priced DVD player. ive seen several at Best Buy between $60-$120. Im lookign for one that has excellent reading capability of dvd+r discs, so far only my Xbox 360 can read them and i hate to use my system just for watching movies. my...

I am searching a website that outlines which DVD's will come out at a particular date in the future so I can budget ahead which ones are worth getting. Anyone there know of such a site?

I am contemplating getting one. Are the new ones compatible to both Mac and PC? Or you have to choose the PC version or the Mac version? Also, does it come with a software to convert my CD's to MP3's to transfer it to the iPod? I am new to this portable MP3 thing and would very much like to...

There was a good Macintosh bulletin board I used to frequent months ago and I lost the link. Anyone out there knows it? Or any recomended ones?

I'm in the market for one too. How about the Panasonics? PVDV702? OR the JVC's? How do they compare?

What time is early btw? What is it like there? Is it like a bar? How's the setup?

I am from Georgia and I will be in Manhattan on Superbowl Sunday for job interviews. Is there a nice place, sports bar, etc with a big screen tv or multiple tv's to watch it that anyone can recommend? Preferably one with no admission fee. Thanks.

Thanks so much for the reply. What is ISF anyway? Maybe I need to read some FAQ's on this forum when I find time. I will try to consider the Toshiba deal too, Man Fai. And the Pioneer is something I did not even look at. Thanks for mentioning it, Hanson. Will continue to read replies. Thanks!!!!

It is all about marketing. Why do you think Bose sells?

I am looking for a widescreen HDTV ready monitor. I saw Panasonics PT56WX42 at onecall.com for around $2100 shipped. Is this a good one? IF not what else do I need to consider around the same price range? IS there somthing not good about this model? I am planning to buy one within this month and...

Hello people. I am in the market for a portable MP3 player. I've seen different price ranges from $100- $350. Other than space capability, what are important features I have to look out for? Any advice on which one is better? I don't really know how much money I need to pay but if it's top notch...

I am moving soon to the upper east side of the city. Does anyone out there know if I can install my satellite there? Is cable service good?

I just switched to Dish from Direct TV. I have a 4900 box though. Anyway, to compare the two, Dish has more channels for less money (Americas Everything Package compared to DTV Premium lineup), WB, UPN Channels,Dish has DD movies, and a few other things that are not important to me so I would...

Do they have a receiver with digital outs? I am about to decide on switching from Direct TV (poor customer support). My Direct TV Sony has digital out. I heard Dish's old receivers has digital outs but the new ones dont. Please advice.
