I have a front projector and I wanted to know if I got a HDdecoder if it would convert it to a signal my projector could use, via s-video. read some where that the decoders can convert to interlaced signals, therefore it might work on my projector. anyone have any clue, and will it change...
for those pts gamers out there, i was wondering if nayof you picked up generals but were so disapointed, that they will not get generals zero hour. I got tired of gameplay, online interface, bad ai until zero hour came out. from the graphics being smoother to the choises and units being better...

Alright, after some tests on my oscilat0r thru my sub, I get pretty balanced db levels from 30hz to 80hz but Iknow for sure I am losing out on the LOW LOW end. With a free air Fs of 26Hz, I know I can bring the db's of the lower tones higher with either building a bigger box or porting the one I...
Well, I got impatient... as some of you might know ive been having bass dilemas for a while, trying to choose what type of enclosure for my sub. So being impatient I just grabed an old 15" PA speaker that my brother used in his band and hooked that up as my sub. WOW, it was like having a bass...

ive read many things on the lowther horn and how it helps with the low end on full range drivers. my stupid question is: a. would it benefit a subwoofer to have an enclosure that is designed around a lowther horn? b. or is the lowther horn tuned to higher bass feq's say around 30-35 Hz...

I posted a while back that i was in the market for some speakers, well i moved, car insurance doubled and taxes suck, so now that that is all past, ive decided to save the $ and get the better set of speakers. I am still in the long process of designing them [and saving for them so plz bear with...
