Well, I'm not going to say its the best (I'd love to hear opinions on it, though) but I just bought an ESA brand(?) from Circuit City yesterday for 1999.99, so its technically under the 2K mark. They had 18 months interest free financing to boot, so it made sense to me. Its a secondary TV for...

Well, I guess I am holding off for now. Lots of dental work coming down the pike for the wife and I. Thanks Colin for your help. I'll check out the Athenas then when I get back around at it.

Hey guys. Need some help. We moved into a house last October with what was an overpowered system for an apartment (meaning = can't turn it up) to a 12x26 bonus room for this system. I have 2 Front tower Jensen speakers with a Jensen center channel. I bought the 3 for roughly 150 bucks or so. I...

Ok, sent you an email. Thanks.

Robert, Hello from Tennessee. I tried emailing you but I got a delivery delay message from Hotmail. I am interested in the sale of your subwoofer. A few questions if I may. Is there a reason for the sell? Just upgrading, I assume? Did It do well in your surround package? I have a 50...

Ok guys could use opinions and options. I am moving into a brand new house from my apartment in Nashville. I just found out today, less than 2 weeks away, that Comcast cable is not in my area. My builder told me yes, boy was I stupid to believe that. So I am doublechecking with a rep of theirs...

Just wanted to give a heads up to people questioning the Mad Catz selector. I bought it today from Gamestop locally and installed. I tried to go the "cheap" way and bought a regular AV selector from Best Buy earlier in the day but colors were HORRIBLE! So remembering this thread I went to...

Thanks to all the replies for this newbie. It wound up being the darn speaker a&b switch on the front. All the hassle and that's what it was. Again, though appreciate everyone's help on this as I was never more confused about something than like this. System sounds awesome.

Got Digital Optical cable and still same problem, getting front speakers but still no surround speakers.

Ok there are no red, green, blue jacks for the receiver. So I know I need to go with those to the tv. Now my assumption is that the red and white jacks are an analog signal and that when I hook those up to the receiver that's why I'm getting front sound only as its just an anaolg signal. In...

Guys, I'm stumped. I have recently purchased a Kenwood Vr507 and some speakers. I am fairly sure I have the speakers hooked up correctly as I can get sound out of them so again, pretty sure. I have an HDTV Toshiba 55" Tv, DVD player, Xbox, PS2, etc. I need a really easy "hold my hand" help...

I appreciate everyone helping out on this as I have just come back from Circuit City with what I felt was a good deal. An open box Kenwood VR-507 for 199.99 missing only the manual and was the display only, as well as a pair of the Polk R10's for 29.99 a piece. Can't beat that I don't think...

Thanks for the replys folks. I am leaning toward the Polks. I just want to make sure that there is nothing obvious missing. I think I found a matching center speaker for my Jensens. Does anybody know of a place that sells Jensen online, B&M, etc.? It seems like no one does.

Ok folks need some help. As you can tell I'm on an extreme budget. My question is simple, I'm looking for bang for buck and needing some surrounds to go with my new set of Jensen Floorstanding C7 speakers. The Polks are on sale at Circuit City for 80 for the pair, the JBL's are online for 100...

Well, I am willing to go a little over but to give an idea I was looking at some towers from the Outlet section at Amazon from Jensen from $80 a piece and according to today, free shippping for all orders over 99. Its very tempting, I just don't know if they are a good deal or not. What specs...

First off I'm a newbie and don't understand all the lingo you guys are throwing out here but I'm learning as fast as I can. Getting a house in probably 6 months from now and I want a sound system for it. I currently have a JBL home theater in a box system from a couple of years ago that has a...

Thanks for the info guys. I'm starting to get the handle on this.

Pre-amp outputs? DSP? Help a guy out here, what does that stuff mean? The outlaw does look good but I still would like to know what some of this stuff means and more importantly, what what it means to me. I appreciate all the responses so far.

I appreciate the help guys. This is and has been really confusing to get into from my standpoint and I do computer work! Is there any minimums though out there to look for? For instance, I'd like my receiver to last a long while. I'm the type of guy that I would rather spend more now but...

I'll try to explain the best that I can. And pretty basic too as I don't know all the techno lingo that seems like everybody else does :) The subwoofer has two red and white jacks on the back of it. The RCA jacks i believe. One says video, the other says aux. From video I run those to the...

Ok guys, total newbie here. I have a general question. I have a JBL ECS300(?) Home theater that I purchased a couple of years ago. It is a combo subwoofer and receiver. It is only Dolby Pro Logic. My question is can I hook a newer receiver up to it and use my current speakers and subwoofer...

Hello to all. Been reading for the past couple of weeks trying to figure out what some of this stuff is and means. I am a complete newbie at Home Theater stuff. But willing to learn. For some of us new guys out there, is there a chance I could get some minimums for receivers, speakers, etc...
