    technics best sub $300 receiver ... SA-DA20N, kenwood vr507/509 or Onkyo TXDS575X

    I own a Kenwood vr509 and I think it is an excellent receiver. I got it for $300 and it can compete with some other receivers in the $400-$500 price range.

    X-box questions before I buy today

    The X box has 8 gigs total, but I think 2 gigs are allocated for songs. Also, songs are ripped into WMA format.

    Infinity Entrasub Subwoofer

    Is the Infinity Entrasub Subwoofer any good? I read the specs it's 150 watts and 10". For $350 I think it's a good buy. Does anyone have/tried this subwoofer? What do you think about it?

    XBox DD sound problems (revisited)

    Lots of Mexican Xbox's had problems. If your having problems with your Xbox and it is Mexican, exchange it for a new one and the problems should disappear.

    Help to decide on DVD Player...

    If I were you personally, I'd buy an XBox. A gaming console and dvd player in 1, and only for about $300. Some people complain that the sound quality of the XBox when playing DVD's isnt as good as a standalone player, but I think it's fine.

    No Dolby Digital with Xbox! Help before I die!

    No Dolby Digital with Xbox! Help before I die!

    Should the cable brand even matter? I don't have a name brand optical and s-video cable but I don't think that really matters because when I hook my DVD player up with those, I get full 5.1 surround sound. Can someone answer my question? What AV Kit do you use? Microsoft's Advanced AV Kit?

    One more question for you guys. Those of you who have an Xbox and can have DD sound, are you using the official Mircrosoft Advanced AV Pack or a third party one such as Mad Catz one?

    XBOX: DD Center Channel MIA? What is the deal

    Guys, full time DD in games is VERY new. Sure there was DD in in-game cinematics, but game developers haven't really mastered full time DD during games. Well the good thing is at least its a software problem and not a hardware problem. Maybe in the future developers will use the center...

    XBOX: DD Center Channel MIA? What is the deal

    I have Halo and DD works perfectly. All my channels work fine. I think I know exactly what your problem may be. Start up your Xbox with no cd inside. In the system screen, go into settings. Then go into audio. Choose "Dolby Surround." It should work now, instead of just stereo.

    I'm a complete newbie to Home Theater. Could I get some help choosing a DVD player?

    Well, if your not too pressed for Progressive Scan, since you don't have an HDTV anyways, I would get the RV31K. It can play VCD's unlike the RP56. Just my 2 cents.
