A company called Converge AV makes a VGA to HDMI adaptor box (i've seen one recently) Check with monoprice.com for one. They seem to be the go-to place for the DIY crowd.

I'm already thinking up ideas. The first step to upgrading would be to replace my current Pioneer VSX-1016TXV receiver. Next , would be the ATMOS surround speakers. I've already got a 12 ft x 18 ft with a 10 ft ceiling space.

This could really help me unclutter my 8 components in a HUGE way!

Whoa, that was fast! Thanks for the info! Btw, Oppo players are my preferred players to buy!

I inherited this player several months ago from a neighbor via FreeCycle.com. They said it 'acted flaky" All it needed was a firmware update. I connected to my router (Trendnet TEW-652BRP) and was connected to AMAZON for streaming media, my YOU TUBE and PANDORA accounts. I've recently started...

Have you tried J & R Music on Park Place? Their vinyl collection keeps on growing! The last time I was in there they had moved the Oldies/Dance music upstairs to make room for more vinyl!

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! I was at fault! Instead of selecting 'Antenna' during setup, I selected 'Cable Analog/Digital'. I felt kinda foolish at first, but, now i'm owning up to a recent mini stroke I had 18 months ago. Small mental things aren't registering like they used to. Thanks for the tips anyway!

Thanks, checked there before posting to get info on my TERK antenna. Its just odd that my weaker (SAMSUNG) antenna was able to bring in those channels before, but, after a little more than a month just stopped being able to at all!

Had to cut back on Dish Network, so, decided to use my Philips DVDR3505 OTA Tuner-Dvd Recorder w/ a Terk HDTVa antenna. I'm an apartment dweller in Brooklyn. No rooftop antenna. I aimed the antenna at the local towers in manhattan, but, the building next to me is blocking me. I can pickup...

Does anyone know of any plans for a definitive collection of Tina Turner videos? I have SIMPLY THE BEST, BREAK EVERY RULE & NUTBUSH CITY LIMITS (on Laser Disc). Since there wasn't anything extra on dvd on its release I have hung on to it. Besides it having an edited version PRIVATE DANCER, it...

Not sure if this will help or not, but, have you tried craigslist.org (under electronics) for turntable listing? The main page defaults to san francisco, but, on the right, you can find a locale close to you to check for whats available. Happy hunting!

Hi, kinda surprised to see this topic pop up again. As far as the keyboard not operating properly, there is mention that the keyboard power consumption must be 120 mA or less. This is on page 32 of the CDP-CX450 manual and page 26 of the CDP-CX455 manual. Also, the keyboard must be plugged in...

Not sure if this will help, but, try checking out www.gemm.com or www.alibris.com . Both are great sites for looking up music, books, etc.

I'm not sure about new vinyl, but, I have gone to www.alibris.com to research old vinyl. Domestic, imports, cd's, books. Nice source.

All of the different cd/dvd/etc formats and not one company makes a DECENT changer to accomodate the variety in one megachanger! Players to handle, decode and playback PROPERLY the discs made are what the consumer wants. As the owner of almost 1200 CD/SACD/DVD-A, close to 500 dvd discs, I am the...

This is a followup to previous post. The model 450 has name/artist/group disc selection as opposed to the model 455's name/artist/Top Artist grouping. Personally, I prefer the 450's grouping which allows multiple artist names per group. Only being able to list 8 artists (455) can be a bit...

I have 2 Sony mega changers (CDP-CX450 & CDP-CX455) both units have ARTIST NAME input, the CDP-CX450 has video onscreen display for its discs, the CDP-CX455 does not. The model 450 came with a LCD remote control (RM-DX450), the model 455 does not. The remote can control either 2 mega changers...

The Pioneer DV-578A (single disc, $199.00 list) the Toshiba SD-4960 (single disc $199.00 list) and Onkyo DV-CP802 (6-disc $499.00 list) are all quick reviewed in the November 2004 issue of HOME THEATER magazine. Check for comments on them in the forum and see if either of them might fit your...

Not gonna read-em! Missed last half of last season and half the fun of playing catch-up for me is doing it all real time. I was strong willed for a few other shows gonna see how long I can be strong for this one!

First off, I would suggest anything labeled "REMASTERED", "ULTIMATE" or "MASTER SERIES". Of course the quality will still vary according to original condition, an engineers ear and decisions. I have purchased several box sets (tempations- Emperors Of Soul, Marvin Gaye-The Master, The Four Tops...

Hey Todd, you are right! I must have scanned too fast. Maybe it was because of of some of the more repetitive and um, how do I say this politely...venting comments about what should or should not be included in this series. As someone who have read D.C. (and Marvel) comics since a kid (i'm 49...

Hmmm, lots of discussion on the current season of Smallville! After scanning the above pages, i've noticed that no one has made mention or connection to Belle Reve that was mentioned by Lionel Luthor. In the D.C. universe it is a government run, high security housing for some of their most...

It is now 12:40am and the Viacom stations are still broadcasting. I have had Dish Network for almost 5 years now. I have no reason to jump to Direct TV. Mainly because I can't afford to. Besides, I have lots of other channels to fall back on and I think that what Viacom is doing STINKS!!! Yeah...

Pics were sent.

Dish Network customer here in park slope, bklyn of almost 5yrs! There is NO comparison! I will NOT go back to cable ever again! I have NOT lost a day of work waiting on a repairman since I switched. My channel selection beats cable in everyway. Yes, I have purchased my recievers, and except for...

Main unit, 2 S-controllers, DVD playback kit, Sega GT-2002/JSRF (on 1 disc), Star Wars Jedi Fighter disc. Vey little use. $150.00, plus shipping. Prefer certified money order.

Black, 1 pr. Great condition. $120.00 plus shipping. Prefer payment by certified money order.

Just a sugesstion, but, I remember Princeton Graphics (www.princetongraphics.com)having a line of monitors called Arcadia that fit that niche. Check their website for more info. I'm sure that there are others companies with a model or two that may have what you need. Also, check out Comp USA for...

I would suggest checking out Sony CDP-CX355 (300 disc) or Sony CDP-CX455 (400 disc) changers. They can be used as stand alone changers, or linked to a second & controlled by one remote. Multiple playback options, disc access by number, artist, etc. I have the CDP-CX450 (no longer being sold) &...

I happen to love As Falls Whichita, So Falls Whichita Falls (which has music usd in the movie Fandango, which, so far has NOT shown up on on DVD yet) and Offramp. Both very laid back pieces of jazz.
