    I purchased an Atlantic Technology 272 powered sub to go with the rest of my AT 270 set. I bought it used and it was supposed to be in excellent condition. Anyway, it just arrived today and I set it up and calibrated it. The problem I am noticing is that I seem to be getting quite a bit of...

    Need help with DVD screen captures

    I'm using WinDVD and I have hypersnap-dx. I want to be able to make some screen captures of DVDs.

    Difference between region 2 and region 4 relaeses of South Park

    Are there any differences between the region 2 releases and the region 4 releases. I am just wondering because with the conversion of the Australian dollar to the US dollar, the region 4 releases come out quite a bit cheaper than buying from the UK.

    question about 3:2 pulldown and 16:9 displays

    Does a widescreen TV that accepts a progressive signal need to specifically support 3:2 pulldown or is that all up to the DVD player? In other words are there 16:9 displays that accept a progressive signal but do not do 3:2 pulldown?

    difference between Tosh xxHX81 and xxH81 series

    I am considering getting a new Toshiba 50" 16:9 display and am a wondering what exactly the difference is between the 50HX81 and the 50H81. From what I can tell the HX series has the anti-glare screen on it. Is the the only difference? If it is the only difference is it worth $150-$200 more for...
