    Def Tech Set Speakers to Large or Small? Need HELP!!!

    The 450s do have a sub, you receiver just has to power it. The SMs give very detailed 3-way sound. I think you asked this question on the AVS forums, but if you didn't, I will say the same thing. Run them as large and the rest small. I ran the 350s large, I tried both ways and couldn't tell...

    Opinions on Onkyo SR702 and Yamaha RXV1500

    Hello, I think I am ready to upgrade from my Yamaha RXV 530 to something larger. The main reason is I need a second audio zone. I also think I need a little more power, not sure about it though. I am not running real high end speakers. I have Def Tech SM350s for mains, PM80s in the rear and...

    XBox and 16x9 in game

    I didn't realize I put this in the wrong forum, sorry. I just thought people weren't answering me. :-) So if my TV does not have a way to manually set 16x9, I am out of luck, correct?

    Calculating size based on view distance?

    Thanks for the replies.

    Calculating size based on view distance?

    I am trying to figure out what size widescreen TV to buy. I know I have seen some standard suggestions here, but in searching for them I couldn’t find them. There were basically some ratios that said if your view distance is X amount of feet, buy this size widescreen or this size 4x3. I also saw...

    XBox and 16x9 in game

    My XBox has never seemed to go into 16x9 mode for me and I don't know what to do. I have an old 32" Sony Trinitron. The Sony goes into different 16x9 ratios with movies on my cheap DVD player and on XBox with movies, but not with games. The XBox does seem to do different ratios than the DVD...

    Sub Frequency Question on Yamaha RX-V530

    I have a question about my receiver. I know the Yamaha sends all frequencies below 90Hz to the sub if I set my speakers to small. It also allows me to set my mains to large and subwoofer to "both" though. My question is, what frequencies go to the sub if my mains are set to large and the sub is...

    Rookie subwoofer connection question.

    I never had to set the sub to "no". That makes sense. Thanks for the info.

    Rookie subwoofer connection question.

    Rookie subwoofer connection question. Hi, I have a question on connecting a sub that does not have an LFE input, and what the impact is. If I connect my mains to the sub, and then set my mains to large, I will have full range mains. Will a sub go any lower because it is connected to LFE, or...

    Parts Express Subwoofer Kit?

    I came back and read this again, what does this mean and do? "the 250 watt PE plate amp has a 6 db boost at 30 cycles built in " Also is the "no ground plug adapter something you can buy. I can build computers from scratch, but beyond that you will have to explain more on the speakers...

    Parts Express Subwoofer Kit?

    Has anybody tried that 10”, 250W, Vance Dickason subwoofer kit at Parts Express? I am thinking of buying that, the new Sony WM500 or the Def Tech PS100. I think the performance should be better than the Sony, but I don’t know if it will match the Def Tech. I am also a little leery about the...

    Questions about RPTV, HDTV, and XBOX

    Thanks again for the advice. I think I may take the plunge when I get back in the US. I guess the maintenance thing is a new thing to me. I haven't touched my Trinitron in the past 5 years, and it seems to be fine. Maybe it's all out of whack and I don't even know it. :-) As for the high...

    65H82 Owners

    I have a different question for you owners of the XXH82 models. I am considering one of the smaller models, but I am nowhere that I can see one in person. Are you able to use the space underneath the monitor for your A/V equipment, or do you have to use a separate A/V rack. Thanks, Lowell

    Questions about RPTV, HDTV, and XBOX

    I guess I was thinking they would only last about 4-5 years. I don't know what abuse is, but I would use it appx 50-60hrs per week of watching TV and mix within that, 5-10hrs of game playing. I also worry about what standards will be defined with the 2006 deadline for HDTV. If I buy the wrong...

    Questions about RPTV, HDTV, and XBOX

    Thanks for the replies so far. How many years can I expect a RPTV to last? I am beginning to think it's a bad investment. Also is DLP worth the extra money? I was thinking of buying over the forth of July weekend, I am currently out of country. Would waiting an extra 6-months for 2004 make and...

    What can you get for less than $1500

    Hello, I must admit I have not kept up with TV tech. I want an HDTV, but don't know where to start. Can you get a good 42"-50" HDTV for under $1500. What's the difference between the HDTV capable, ready and so on? What do I need if I will be connecting to a DirecTV HD receiver or the cable...

    Question for Def Tech BP owners, or any other Bi-Polar owner?

    Thanks for the replies. How do you hook up the tower subs? Do you split the signal coming out of your receiver then right into the sub LFE?
