Thanks Guys, Well i haven't considered going with all Paradigms only because the store rep considered the package and I don't know much about HT. I loved the Def Tech but too much $$$. I'll have to ask him about this match. he's coming to my home next week to check out my room layout. it is...

Well Guys, Every time I go to a different audio/video store I come out more confused as what is better for me. The rep pitches there best, trying to push there selling brand and gives me his full blown lingo as to why. The latest was this Mits TV guy trying to knock off the Pioneer Elite...

I am looking at the Sony SAT-HD100 ($799) or the Toshiba DST3000 ($799). I heard the Sony has many capabilities to receive DTV,DTV HD, Analog Off Air, and Digital Off Air programming, but runs hot and has a mini cooling fan that runs when the unit is juiced up. Can anyone tell me if this is...

Chad, Yeah, it is the Elite 2000 model which is discontinued now. The 720 model is the latest and has eliminated the full mode lock problem. I'm still trying to bring down the price even further than $5700 but who knows. Later, JaimeC

Well, I've narrowed down my selection for HDTV's to the Pioneer brand. I need help figuring out what the difference is between the following sets besides the size. I have added some features I think are important, but hey, I don't know: 1)Elite PRO-720HD, 64", 72 point convergence ($8,300.00)...

Rande, Thanks for yuor recommendation. Brett, I have not purchased anything yet. I was curious as to what to do to get the right receiver and not be redundant in buying the direct tv sat dish with another generic packaged reciever that might come with it. I think. Anyways thanks.

I am a beginner in the HT area and need help with some basics. I am currently looking at the DST3000 sat receiver to go with my HDTV. Is it a good buy for $600? If I buy the Mitsubishi sat dish and the generic receiver as it comes in a package at Good Guys Inc., should I discard the receiver and...

I am currently looking at purchasing about $10k in a home theater system. I am curious as which cables I should use to get my money's worth. Good Guys has quoted me Monster cables for all my hook-ups. They quoted fiber optic cable @ $44.99 (sorry, but what is this for?), video cable @ $199.99...

Hi Steve V, Thanks for the responese. Tell me about the Klipsch and how it compares to Energy. How much did you pay for your Klipsch and how much for the Energy Veritas 2.4 towers and and the rest of the package? I didn't take down the model numbers for the back, center and sub speaker when I...

Thanks Guys, I was at Good Guys today and heard the Denon 4802 with Energy Veritas 2.4. speakers .The rep put on some crappy music and could not not really enjoy the sound. she had the volume on too low. I'm not sure but can this receiver push such speakers? Can anyone tell me what speakers...

I am building my very first home theater and started to look at the Denon receivers. My first question is should i get the 5.1 or the 6.1 receiver. The room in my home which will house the home theater system is very large (about 20 ft. x 30 ft.) and already has the ceiling speakers built in...
