I know this depends a lot on preference, but which Directv HD Receiver is the best as far as quality, ease of use, and being able to get satellite as well as over-the-air HD signals?

Can anyone tel lme which Directv HDTV receivers are actually capable of sending the satellite HD signal as well as the local over-the-air satellite signals? Thanks for your help!

Since I am relatively knew to this HDTV stuff and am looking into getting an HDTV 16:9 set and do most of my viewing on Directv, still use a vcr, and have a decent amount of laserdiscs; I have read that the DVDO IScan might be something I should look into to help the nondigital signals look...

Jason: I think the Best Buy you are describing is probably the Eastgate store, near Eastgate Mall (and a huge Biggs store). Does that ring a bell? If it does I will have to go out there because believe it or not that is the only Best Buy in the Greater Cincinnati area that I haven't been to...

As I am new to this and want to educate myself as much as I can before I purchase my HDTV, is there any difference in picture quality between a 16:9 tv and a 4:3 tv? I know the widescreen dvd's would be "squeezed" on a 4:3 set, but is there really any difference in picture quality between the 2...

Jason: One last question (for now): You mentioned on an earlier post that Best Buy stocks different models according to region. With you being in Westerville, Ohio and myself in Cincinnati, Ohio and only a few hours between us, does that mean that we are in the same region? And therefore if...

Jason: Do you have an approximate price on the Pioneer 64" and the model number? Thanks for your help!

I was wandering if anyone could enlighten me as to the pros and cons of the Toshiba 65H81 (80) and the Mitsubishi WS 65807? What are people's experiences or what have people heard and what are their opinions on these 2 models. I kind of had my heart set on the Toshiba, but with my local...

Jason: I checked the Best Buy web site and there was no Pioneer 64" listed, only a 58". How much are they and do they actually have them on display in the store? Also, you said that the Toshiba 65H81 was now listed and due to arrive in mid-September. Does this mean that Best Buy will...

Thanks for the help! Gil-What's the web page of Sound Professionals? Thanks!

All right. Thanks!

Does anyone sell an optical audio selector with more than 4 outputs? I have bought the one from Radio Shack but like I mentioned, it has only 4 outputs from a 1 line input. With the probable addition of some new equiptment, I am definitely going to need more than 4 outputs for my receiver...

All right fellas. Here we go. Since Best Buy isn't going to carry the Toshiba 65H81, is there any other "local" electronics store or department store that will carry them? I really like the model but would like to stay away from the "internet stores" for no other reason then the possibilty of...

Just talked to 2 different guys at 2 different Best Buy's in the Cincinnati area. I was interested in purchasing the Toshiba 65H80 widescreen RPTV. Much to my dismay, they said they didn't have any in stock and weren't even going to carry the 56"-65" models anymore! I confirmed this at another...

Paul: I too have that same question, except that I was looking for something around 65" and 16:9. I do watch a lot of Directv (and Directivo) satellite, while I only watch on the average of 1-2 DVD's a week. Any suggestions?

When I was referring to 16:9, I was referring to widescreen format vs 4:3 ratio. I understand that as the screen gets bigger, the picture may not be as clear (my 10 year old 32" RCA has a better picture than my 50" 3 year-old Hitachi). What I assumed they were talking about when they said...

After reading all the posts on this forum regarding HD RPTV 16:9 sets, you guys have scared the living s**t out of me! I am a relative novice at all this stuff, but I do know a little :). I was planning on purchasing either a Toshiba or Mitsubishi 65" HDTV RPTV with a 16:9 ratio until I read...

Thanks Guys!

As I haven't been able to find much information on this subject because Panasonic and Pioneer won't release their "affordable" line of DVD Recorders until the Fall, I was hoping someone could answer a few questions for me. 1. What are the major differences between DVD-RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RAM as...

In reading the limited posts and news release on the new Panasonic DVD Recorder due in stores this Fall, I have one major question- Is the DVD Recorder similar to a VCR in that it basically has a built-in TV tuner to record a program or view a particular channel through PIP? Any comments or...
