    Upgrading your SVS? WTB 20-39 PCi

    You still looking for a 2039PCi? I just bought a used one from one of the forum members here. My wife took one look at it and just about had a heart attack! So I may need to sell it to get something smaller. Let me know, it's in original box and in perfect condition! Gregg

    Which RPTV?

    Do I go with the Tosh for DVI input? I've seen some recent HDTV satellite and over-air receivers that have DVI. Should I be worried if I buy the Pioneer that I won't be able to get HDTV if I don't have DVI? Gregg

    Speakers on a budget

    I just bought the Denon AVR-1803. It has DTS-ES, Dolby Digital-EX, 4 toslink connections, DTS Neo:6, 6.1 surround, and is quality stuff! I did a bunch of research before deciding on this receiver. I needed more toslink connections than most receivers could offer (xbox, dtivo, dvd) and still have...

    The time is NOW!!!!

    No, not Moon Unit (or Dweezil). Re: RPTV brands: I haven't seen in my research too many other RPTV's in the under 2k category besides Hitachi and Toshiba that are very highly recommended. I really don't have a problem with convergence adjustment (actually I just ordered the Avia CD), I am...

    The time is NOW!!!!

    I'm ready! Finally, the time is here! I've gutted my basement, and have chosen a suitable place for the NEW home theater system. More importantly, I have a green light from the spousal unit. My wife has put some constraints on cost. I am not adverse to refurbs/dented, etc. Here is...

    Small form factor speakers

    My brother wishes to set up a new home theater system at his house. However, space is a major concern. He is willing to spend about 2G's on the speakers and receiver. He wants to have speakers that have a small form factor and will be relatively unobtrusive. I tried steering him to JBL S-Series...

    Need suggestions for big (for me) purchase

    Due to the good year I had with my employer, I am going to gut my basement and build out my home office. And, more importantly, I am going to put in a brand-new HT system. Keep in mind that my budget is under $5,000 for everything. I am thinking about the following: Hitachi/Toshiba 50"...

    Spending a lot of money, opinions please...

    Ok, I've decided to do a wholesale replacement of every home theater component I have. I've got a budget of about 8 g's. Here's my (short) list of components I am considering, paying particular attention to the speakers: Pioneer Elite Recvr VSX-45TX Pioneer Elite DVD DV45A Fronts B&W DM602...

    OK, ready to take the plunge...

    OK, one more time then: 1. Would you recommend the NSP-1II over the NSP-1? What are the major differences? 2. I have the Sony SA-WM40, which everyone says is an excellent sub for the price. Don't need to replace? 3. What about the Pannie DVD over the Samsung? Big diff? Thanks! Gregg

    OK, ready to take the plunge...

    OK, I see that the NSP-1 is 209.99 or the NSP-1-II is 269.00. Would this setup be significantly better than my Ensemble II, Center Plus and Surround II setup? Thanks! Gregg

    OK, ready to take the plunge...

    I have a H/K AVR-110 with the Sony WM40, and Cambridge Ensemble II, Center Plus and Surround II's. I also have a Samsung 909 DVD player. I want to upgrade the DVD and speakers, and I am considering the JBL N series, along with the Pannie CP72. Cost is the definite factor here; wife does...

    Good receiver for $200-$250

    Don't laugh, but I bought a Sherwood RD7103 for 170.00 at Circuit City, and have been very pleased with it! An excellent entry-level receiver (bought it for my kids). Gregg

    Some advice please...

    My dad wishes to buy a HT setup for his new condo. He has a loft area, that is about 20x30 for this setup. He wants three configs based on budget: 5,000, 7,500 and 10,000. He really would like HDTV, and his condo has mandatory cable. Any hope here? Try to be creative if possible. Bring it on...

    Which is the better reciever?

    Yes, sorry, Logic7, which makes it sound very similar to DPL II. Gregg

    Which is the better reciever?

    The H/K AVR110 is a great receiver. If you want DPL II, use the VMax mode, it accomplishes the same thing and sounds great. It has plenty of s-video inputs, and has 3 digital outputs. The power rating is modest; it fills my large room with plenty of sound, crystal clear with no hiss. The DTS...

    How the heck did I have my vcr set-up??

    I'll tell you what I did for cable connections. It may or may not work for you. I got all of my manuals for my DVD, receiver, vcr, tv, cd player, and tape, and put them in front of me. My goal was to use my receiver to switch everything for simplicity (my family is HT-challenged). I did a...

    Reciever Brands?

    Harman Outlet. They sell refurbished receivers, including current year models. I bought a Harman/Kardon AVR-110 from them. It's got Dolby Digital/DTS, S-Video switching, optical in and out, and front panel connectors. It's an awesome receiver for 300 bucks! And it was highly rated by users...
