Hi gang, Right now I have a theater/bonus room (which hardly gets used, by the way). It's fairly big, about 20x20, and I have a SVS PC-Plus, the 25-31. We are most likely selling this house and moving into something much smaller. The TV/Living room will be all in 1, and no where near the size...

Hi, I am looking for a TV mount to use for a 15" LCD TV. This TV will need to be mounted up in the corner of the ceiling. We were at Circuit City last nite about the purchase the TV (Samsung 15") and I was just taken back by the fact that they wanted $119 for the mount. Anyone have...

Hi, My wife wants a TV in the bathroom. We actually put in a cable and electrical outlet in the corner of the room next to the ceiling. So we went shopping for LCD TV's last nite and both of us liked the Samsung LT-P1545 which was on sale for $323. But then I asked how to mount the TV in...

Granted, it's not even in stock right now, but I want to buy the sub in the next few weeks. Is it worth waiting for it to go on sale? Or could that be a few months from now? If anyone has been watching the price on this, I'd appreciate hearing your experience. Thanks! Aaron

Hi everyone, I'd like to purchase a smaller rear projection TV to replace an aging 32" Sony Tube TV. I've done some very initial research and am considering the Sony 42" Grand Wega LCD KF-42WE610 and the Samsung 46" DLP HLP-4663W. The TV will be mainly used for SD material, although I...

Hi gang, Believe it or not, I FINALLY picked up KOTOR. Bought it at Best Buy today for $15. I've never been able to pay $40-$50 for a game, and today it was finaly cheap enough. I remember reading some of the threads way back in the day and there were certain skill points or something that...

Hi group, I may be replacing a 64" rear projection TV soon. The room has blackout shades, so light control is possible, although during the day I don't necessarily like to have to make it pitch-black to watch TV. This TV has a wide range of functions, everywhere from SD cable, digital cable...

Hi gang, I'd like to add a small sub to my downstairs system. I don't really care about huge bass, as my SVS PC+ takes care of that in the home theater room. This sub would be for the family room and will be mated with Swan Diva's 2.1's or some other similar speaker. I'd just like to give the...

Unit is like new. I have probably used this thing maybe twice. I think I've just paid my 3rd monthly fee. I'm not too sure the whole TIVO thing is for me and I hear that my cable system is coming out with PVR's soon, anyway. I have the box, manual, accessories, remote, etc. I can take a picture...

Hi everyone, I am getting fed up with our local cable company not offering the local station in HDTV. I have also heard that the picture quality on Direct TV is much better than the PQ of the analog cable channels. Could anyone give me a quick breakdown of which company is best to go with...

Hi group, I want to install some speakers on my covered lanai and wanted to know if anyone might be selling a pair of gently used speakers. I know Klipsch, Boston, Sonnance, etc, make outdoor speakers, so I was thinking along those lines. Let me know if you have a pair you're looking to...

I just read on the forum that the "standard" AR banana plugs wouldn't fit on the thick 12g wire. Anyone know any connectors that work with this wire? Thanks, Aaron

If a reputable company was selling a Panny DMRE30 for $375, would a person to silly not to pick it up? I just got a new Panny RP82 a few months ago, and don't really have the need for a DVD recorder (I don't think), but at this price, I'm seriously considering it. What do you think? Edit...

I saw on another forum that the Sony 4ES is going to be replaced in the next few months. It seems to me that the receiver just came out, but I guess maybe it's been a while. Anyway, anyone have any info on the replacements? Thanks, Aaron

Hi group, I picked up a set of B&W speakers a few months back. Instead of using the 601's for the rears, I went with the LM1's. So I have these black DM601 S2 speakers for sale. I also have 2 pairs of black stands that you can have if you buy the speakers. One of the speakers has a small...

Hello group, Let me preface this with "I've tried to use the search function, but have been unable to use it for the last 2 days". I was wondering if anyone has any experince with using the DVDO IScan Pro with cable TV images. SOme channels, especially the lower channels, and some of the...

Anyone here running a Tivo thru a modulator? I guess my basic question is how do you get 2 outputs on the TIVO to be active at the same time? I assuming that when you select the output to be used in the Tivo setup, that's the only one active? Or am I wrong? I have the s-vid outs on the tivo...

Hello everyone, I got some of the Home Depot 12g speaker wire that I plan to use for my L/C/R and it's already run for my rear surrounds. I plan to buy some spades and banana plugs from Accessories 4 Less to put over the bare wire for the front 3 channels. I think I'd also like to...

I guess I haven't used the SVS 25-31PC+ sub too much with the lights on - mostly just movies at nite. Tonite I noticed that when the sub hits, the lights in the house (at least in that room) will dim slightly. I have also noticed that when the AC/heat in the house kicks on, the same thing will...

Hey group, I just picked up Namco Museum, along with the Gamestar arcade stick this past weekend. We're having a blast playing Galaga and Ms. Packman. The wife also has took a liking to Bloodwake, since its got a pretty simple 2 player version. Can you guys think of any other similar games...

Hi all, I know the dangers of playing video games on RPTV's. I was just wondering, however, if the damage is cumulative or not? I mean, if I play for an hour or two, then turn off the TV for a while, and then come back and play a few more hours, do I keep adding to the possibility of burn-in...

Hello, I just got my 25-31PC+ hooked up and have a question on the crossover on the sub. If I have all of my speakers set to small on the receiver and crossed-over at 80Hz and I also have the sub crossover set at 80HZ, should I be hearing a difference when I toggle the sub’s crossover...

Hi group, I have 56" of 24" diameter sonotube that was given to me by another forum member quite a while ago. It was kept at my mother's house until our new house was done being built. When I bought the sonotube home my wife's jaw dropped and I knew that this wasn't going to fly. And with the...

Well, I'm REALLY trying not to be frustrated again with TIVO. I got one last Christmas, and after dealing with the channel changing delay problems (though I was still changing channels with the cable box remote), the Tivo suddenly changing channels on my wife in the middle of her favorite...

I think I've finally narrowed my receiver choice down to either the Sony 4es or the Pioneer 43TX. Everything about the Sony seems to be what I need. The two 5.1 inputs are great. The 6 digital inputs are great, considering I'm worried about running out with the 4 on the Pioneer. The price of the...

Hi group, I'm looking for speakers that I can put on either side of my TV. The problem with this setup is that the TV is in the corner and I don't have very much room on one side for the speakers. I was thinking something "thin" with a small footprint might be nice, maybe something similar to...

Hi group, I am getting ready to wire my theater room with surrounds. The room is a single "bonus" room upstairs that has a huge crawl space where I can walk around it on the trusses. From where the receiver will be, I'll have to go across 3 walls to get from the receiver to the 2 rear...

Hello, Does anyone know of a good website that lists all of the available console online games, talkes about them, etc? Thanks, Aaron

Hi group, I still have never found a game like Diablo that I liked so much. It gave my friends and I hours of fun online co-op play. I have been out of the gaming scenes for a while. Can anyone tell me if there are any newer games similar to Diablo that would be good to try? I have both...

Hi all, Trying to set up my first home theater. I'm still waiting to get a receiver, which I think I'll have in the next month. Anyway, I just picked up a Tivo Series 2 and realized I don't totally understand how my 3100HD box is hooked up to my TV. Do I have this right? The Component...
