    Anyone use a pc on a RP HDTV(DVI)?

    Use powerstrip to run widescreen resolutions. Karnis has a custom resolution guide at the AVSforum under the HTPC forum. The best resolution for this TV will come from 540 timings. I can't remember exactly how I had my Hitachi setup because I have not used it with a HTPC since I got my...

    Allright. One more tv asking advice post. 36xbr800, 40xbr800 or Tosh 36hf72?

    Not me I'd go with the 40. I too have compared these TVs and I thought the Sony was better than the Toshiba especially given the larger size.

    low end projectors versus high end projectors?

    Don't be afraid of the 4:3 projectors compared to the 16:9 projectors with respect to the usual argument of; You will only get this resolution on a 4:3 if you watch 16:9. Irregardless of what resolution people may come up with the simple fact is that the pixels are still the same size. The size...

    Front Projector Screen In Front Of RPTV??

    I'm actually in the process of doing the exact same thing you are with respect to having a screen coming down in front of my RPTV.If you go for an audio transparent screen you will pay big bucks for a screen that does not produce as good a picture as a lot of the other screen materials out...

    New Zenith 36inch HDTV/Monitor

    Sure would be nice if someone had seen this TV. I also read somewhere that Sampo or some other company is now using LG tubes instead of the Toshibas. This may indicate that the tube in the new Zenith is either just as good as the Toshiba tubes or better.

    New Zenith 36inch HDTV/Monitor

    I was on vacation so this reply is a little late. The big difference between the D53 and the D51 is that the D53 has a VGA connection. There are some other small differences but the VGA is the big thing because very few direct view TV's have this connection. Should be good for a HTPC or HDTV...

    Paradigm PW-2200 vs. SVS 20-39PC?

    My room is 16x20 and I have 1 SVS 16-46PC. I find one sub to be plenty not only for the room but for the entire apartment and the neighbours agree. Everyone is talking dual subs but at what point would 2 subs be required or rather what minimum room size would you need a second sub. Just...

    Scenium TruFlat?

    I heard it over at www.hometheaterspot.com under the RCA section. Price wise I saw a discounted price for preorders but I can't remember how much. I do recall that it was more than the MM36110.

    New Zenith 36inch HDTV/Monitor

    Has anyone seen the Zenith D36D53 yet or come across any info on the net other than the Zenith site? It's a new model that just came out but it's in the Sears Christmas catalogue so someone must have seen this TV by now. I haven't been able to find anything on the net regarding the quality of...

    Scenium TruFlat?

    I heard that they aren't going to release them until the 2nd quarter of 2002. That's too far away for me for something that might not be that great in the end or may be delaied even longer. That and the fact that their customer service sucks. Here's what happened when I contacted them. I've sent...

    Zenith 27, 32 & 36 inch HDTV Sets

    I too am looking for info on these TVs but more specifically the D36D53. I want it for HDTV & HTPC and to date it seems to be the only TV that has all the features I'm looking for. The problem is that I've never seen one and the Zenith site has very little info especially in regards to the...

    Which RPTV?

    Thanks for the advice. I didn't want to spend more than 2500.00 because this is just a temp TV until I move out of hell and buy a really good one. Where I live I can only get Panasonic but what I need to know is if you get the same picture from a regular DVD player on a RPTV compared to a HD...

    Which RPTV?

    Hey guys. I don't know much about RPTV and I didn't think I would buy one for another 3 years in which case I would just buy one of the most expensive ones so it would be pretty good. Well I can't wait for 3 years so I figured I would buy a cheap one for now. The only option I have is Panasonic...
