    48" Mitsubishi

    I have been looking at some of the smaller projos and have decided on either a 48" Mits or 46" Toshiba. I have a Tivo, PS2, and Xbox connected. HD is not something I am in a hurry to watch due to the small amount of content and my inability to record it. So a few questions... 1) What are the...

    Is Panny really progressive?

While hooking up several new panasonic dvd players (dvds55s and dvds35s) I noticed that my displays (Mitsubishi WS65x11's and Hitachi Plasmas) both show that the signal is 480i. I enabled the progressive feature on the menus but that did...

    Trouble with my amp

    I just moved and got my HT set back up. Now I am having a problem with my Rotel rmb-1066 amp. Once I turn off my receiver there is usually a five minute delay before the amp shuts off (via the 12 volt trigger). About 1 minute before the amp shuts off it starts to make a buzzing sound. It is...

I have just ordered one and have been trying to think how best to utilize it for mp3 playback (this isnt a question of "how good are mp3s?"). I need to also know if you can...

    Tweaking rmb-1066 Question

    I added a Rotel rmb-1066 amplifier to my setup this week. I really like it so far and think it meets my needs perfectly. My question is how should I set the input gains on the front? Out of the box, they are all set differently. I have video essentials and a sound meter that I use for setting...

    What happens when a college senior takes 100 level classes? Well you start to think about things that normally would not be worth your time. Okay, I have been interested in moving to seperates for some time now and the introduction of the Outlaw piece makes that much more possible. I thought...
