I have the follwing DVDs for sale. The prices are as marked, but no reasonable offer will be refused. Shipping will be $5 for 1-3 dvds (2 dvd sets count as 2 dvds) and $1 additional for every dvd above 3 purchased. I have excellent feedback with ebay (account=nohjy). I have also done a few...
Hi: I am selling all of my Home Theater Stuff. The money would be better right now (just had our second child) and we need the room in our living room. John
SHERWOOD P-965 I have for sale a Sherwood P-965 Pre/Pro in like new condition. The unit has a silver face-plate with the rest of the unit being black. It will come with all accessories including remotes, set-up mic, antenna, manual and orginal box. This pre-amp was purchased approximately 4...
Hi: I just got this new Panasonic upconverting DVD player as a present, but I already have a DVD player (and I am using a CRT RPTV which really won't benefit from upconverting). I am looking to get $255 + shipping for it. I have the receipt from Onecall and it will come shipped...
First, I want to repond to Ken F's message. The 53TW54 is not last year's model (Ken is thinking of the 53WX54). It is a step up from the 53X54. The TW includes an HD tuner, a glare resisent shield, and has an A/V storage cabinet under the screen. As far as I know the PQ on both TVs is...
Troy: No offense intended, but there is no way that you will get $800 for a 46" standard def RPTV. I would be thinking somewhere in the $400 range at best. People are not generally interested in buying old large screen tvs. IMHO, you will be lucky if you can sell the thing for more then a...
Hello: I have a convergence grid which can be used with any of the last three generations of Hitachi 57" CRT Rear Projection TVs. It is good with the UWX/SWX/TWX/XWX, F500/S500/S700/X500 and the latest generation Hitachis as well. It has never been used. I paid $50 for and will sell it for...
Troy: I would encourage you to look at the new Panasonic 53X54. You can get this TV for ~1,400 shipped and it is as good as any 50+ inch CRT RPTV on the market today. I know what you are thinking, I am just saying this because I own the TV. This is true - I do own it. That said, I also owned...
Rolando: Please do yourself a favor and see this TV before you buy. I have compared it to everything and for the $$ this TV can not be touched. The picture is spectatcular and the geometry and convergence out of the box were the best I have seen. I have been through the Hitachi S500, S700 and...
Well, I just got back from looking at the 53X54 again. This time it was next to the new Hitachi 57S715 and the winner is... The Panasonic 53X54 by a nose. The showroom was running HDnet on all of the TVs and with both tvs set up similarly, The panasonic was slightly sharper. The only area I...
Tom: Last year's Toshiba line had what was called the "White Line" Problem. I would encourage you to review the following message board to ensure this issue does not afflict the current Toshiba Line (just FYI: I have heard that it is indeed still prevalent in the new line). Toshiba Message...
Brandon: I just purchased the big brother of the TV you are looking at: the 53X54. It was between the Hitachi 57X500 and the Panny. I know what your thinking... that is some competition considering the Hitachi is twice the price of the panasonic. In the end, the panny does everything well and...
I have read in various posts that the xxx13 series has had some problems with inherent grain which is noticable on all inputs. I just got my 48413 and it has it as well. Even on DVDs (i.e. Toy Story, Resident Evil, Monsters, Inc.) there is this moving wall of video noise which is most noticable...

Which set would you buy out of the following: Pioneer Elite 530HDI Mitsubishi 55613 Hitachi 51S700 Sony 51ws550 or VVV700 please feel free to make alternate suggestions. I am most interested in DVD and HD performance. Thanks, John
Chris: I have convergence as tight as it can be. I have heard this is a prevalent problem and is related to focus. That said, I am suprised more people haven't commented on it. I am guessing many people have the problem and don't even notice it. John
I have a problem with blue leaking in scenes where white items/images don't seem to merge properly in black backgrounds. This is particularly noticable on men's suits with the transition between the dark suit and the white shirt. A good example of a movie where I have seen this issue frequently...
Hello:
Before buying either remote, I encourage you to look into the Harmony SST659. Its an amazing remote. It also has internet upgradbility which I know the MX500 does not.

This is a touchy subject among big-ticket electronics consumers. I have rarely purchased EWs, but I have found them useful in two instances: 1. If you plan to sell the item you are purchasing in the warranty period, the EW (if transferrable - most are)adds value to the item. I know if I...
