    Hi, I just got notification that my 65HDX82 will be shipped today from 6ave:D (I'm wetting myself!!!) I have a couple of questions. 1) Why does the convergence change so much during the first 100 hours? And why 100 hours? 2) Why is SVM bad? What is SVM? 3)What is chroma bug problem and...

    Ok, I'm gonna buy. Please help me choose between 3 different Toshibas. Thanks!

    Sheldon, The price of $2900 INCLUDED shipping! They told me that they were an authorized dealer so the warranty would be fine, they did not even ASK to sell me an extended warranty. Now all I can do is wait.... Jason

    Any bugs in the Toshiba 65HDX82

    Did you try to calibrate with an Avia disk, it sound like a poor out of the box tv, just some tweeking issues, don't know about the speakers though. I wont even use mine. As to the reference to "quite a few people have gotten these sets only to have the tv stop working, or not work at...

    3802 tuner ???

    Hi, I tried to figure it out from the "manual", but...no help. How do I set radio station presets and recall them at will? Step by step please, not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to HT. Thanks, Jason

    Any bugs in the Toshiba 65HDX82

    Cris, I doubt you will find too many people with problems yet because-NO ONE CAN GET THEM YET!!! I have called EVERYWHERE looking for one, called Toshiba to see if they had started shipping and they said "yes", but I have no clue to where. I just ordered mine sight unseen from 6ave.com so when...

    Which mode for 6.1 discrete?

    So... Which mode do I turn it to, or does it matter if it detects the discrete channel? I would think you would have to turn it to something specific or else you would not be able to override it.(if anyone would want to)

    Which mode for 6.1 discrete?

    Hi, I have a Denon 3802 and I was wondering which mode for 6.1 discrete (DTS-ES)? is it pro-logicII? And what about 5.1 that I want matrixed to the sixth speaker, the same? The manual is a little difficult to understand. Do I set the Auto detect to on or off for the best surround detection...

    3802 multiroom hookup?

    I called Denon and found out something that the manual does not tell you. If you use multi room hookup you must use analog cables. I have my cd in the optical input but in order to be able to have it play in another room I have to ALSO plug in the R and L inputs. Hmmmm. Thanks, Jason

    3802 multiroom hookup?

    After looking at the hookups, everything should be as needed. Maybe I am just not implementing the "multi room" correctly.Meaning, how do I get something to play or stop playing? Right now I have the CD playing and I go to "multi" and set it to "stereo" (because I only have two speakers in room...

    3802 multiroom hookup?

    I'm not sure I know what you mean. It sounds like I would be shorting out somthing if I take the internal amp outputs and connecting that to the preout. Can I have a sixth chanel and multi room if I have an external amp? Thanks, Jason

    3802 multiroom hookup?

    Hi, I have set up my new 3802 and have tried to get the multi room speakers to work and I can't. I have a center back speaker connected to integrated amp output and hooked up the multi room speakers to the "multi room" pre-outs and run that to a Citation amp and then to the speakers. I have...

    About the 3802

    Hi, It is interesting that when I was waiting for a 950 there were posts all about the 950 and since I have no idea when my name will come up I have chosen an alternate route to nirvana. Since the Rotel 1066 is also hard to get and $600 more (quite a bit) I have been doing some reasearch. I...

    Receiver as a pre/pro

    Thanks All, I WAS going to wait for the 950 (yeah right) but am considering the Denon 3802 with Citation 7.1 for the front towers and the rear surrounds. Does it seem like a plan? Is there anything anyone does NOT like about the 3802? Thanks, Jason

    Wiring for a HT System

    Hi, I am fairly new to the "real" home theater thing and am just finishing a house where I prewired the great room for a modest home theater. I would look at smarthome.com at their superwire. It is prewrapped bundled wire that includes: (2) cat5, (2) rg6, and (2) fiber optic lines, all for a...

    Difference between 950 and 1066

    Hi, I was actually looking at just the features, I know they sound essentially the same. What kind of firmware upgrades are available? If this just came out, why do you need to upgrade it? What can it upgrade in the future? Thanks, Jason

    Difference between 950 and 1066

    Hi, Now when you say the Rotel has individual settings for each input then It remembers them when I switch from DVD to CD , 6.1 to stereo? The 950 does not have this option? Thanks, Jason

    Difference between 950 and 1066

    Hi, I am building a new home theater (and a new house to go with it)and I am on the 950 waiting (and waiting...)list. Since the house is not quite done yet I have a few weeks to make my decision between the 950 and 1066. I want to know what feature differences there are between the two...

    Do I HAVE to have an amp?

    Hi, I am building a new house and am starting to build a modest system. Outlaw 950 pre/pro (yes..I am still waiting), Klipsch RF3 fronts, Klipsch RCW3 in wall for the rear center (6.1), and the HSU VTF-3 so far. The house is not quite done yet so I have a couple of weeks at least to get the...
