    Digital Cable boxes?

    I know we are often at the mercy of our cable providers for what cable box we have. I was thinking about going down to my local Time Warner branch office and see if I can get an upgrade. I've had the same box for 2+ years and I'm sure there has to be someething better out there. Do cable...

    Marantz RC3200 remote programming

    Has anyone taken the time to hook the remote to the PC and do the programming that way? (The remote has a RS232 port and cable) If you have, what did you think? How configurable is it? Do anything interesting with it?

    DLP Rear Projection

    A friend of mine recently ordered the Samsung 50" DLP HD monitor. Are there other DLP TV alternatives that are out now or about to come to market? I really like the idea of having a set with no burn in, though the thought of signing up for limited lamp life doesn't appeal to me. So I am still...

    HDTV content list?

    Is there being a list maintained anywhere that discusses who has HDTV broadcasts now - or - what major events are likely to be HDTV in 2002-2003? I've seen mention of specific shows, etc, but am looking for a single place where I can keep track of what is on the HDTV horizion. You see, if I...

    Whistle from some cable channels...

    Greetings- At home I am running a digital cable box and noticed that some channels have a high-pitched whistle in them. I wish I was one of those guys that could tell you the freq, but can't. It's not on every channel, but on many of them. Seems to be primarily on channels < 100. I hadn't...

    Klipsch speakers & subs?

    I know there are some klipsch lovers out there. My HT consists of the RF-3/RC-3 with the 12" sub (ksw-12?) and I used klipsch's smaller sf-1's as my rear surrounds. I like having floorstanding speakers in the rear because nothing is mounted to my walls. One thing I noticed is that several...

    Movie encryption and HDTV inputs

    I have been lurking a while and have a friend who is not buying an HDTV because of the movie channels threatening to encrypt movies. I don't think that he's against the encryption, but it had something to do with the output of set top boxes and inputs on HDTVs, and not being able to see them...

    Encryption, is it a big deal?

    I have been lurking a while and have a friend who is not buying an HDTV because of the movie channels threatening to encrypt movies. I don't think that he's against the encryption, but it had something to do with the output of set top boxes and inputs on HDTVs, and not being able to see them...
