You have got to get the DTS version. It is simply awesome. The sound envelopes you. It will make you feel like part of the movie/war. Get it now!!! Steve P.S. For info on the DTS version, drop me an email babe,
just got the DTS version and watched it today. the scene where they are in the crashed copter (not sure of time, i'll find out) and they shoot and RPG at it. it misses and whizzes by from front right to rear left. INTENSE!! first time i jumped while watching a DVD. steve
Independence Day wasn't mentioned much. The bass in the scene when the ship is approaching earth and it crashes into the satellite is insane. Some of the deepest bass I've ever heard there!! Steve
I had one pair of neighbors arrive at my door one night while my girlfriend and I were watching Jurassic Park. They apparently thought there was a T-Rex loose in my house, hehe. Funny thing is, once we invited them in, they stayed to watch the rest of the movie. They don't complain anymore. As a...
ok, my $.02 DTS in my opinion is a MUCH more dynamic use of audio that just DD. As stated, compression plays a crucial role. On the same token, so does your audio system. With a low-end receiver or separates and low-end speakers, you probably wont notice the difference. However, if you are...
Howdy, Does he have an A/V receiver hooked up? What I mean is, if he has a receiver hooked up through an aux cable feed, it is possible to get the sound from the TV through the speakers (AUX setting) and not have the TV on. Just an idea..... Steve
FWIW, there is already a DTS version out. Not sure when it 'snuck out', but it's out there. For the URL where you can purchase it, email me. I don't want to violate any rules by posting it on this forum. Steve
Thanks for the advice guys! I AM going to get a RPTV. I am headed in the direction of the Pioneer Elites. Any stories about the Pio Elites anyone cares to share? Steve
Here is what I was originally going to post before browsing through many hundreds of threads on this RPTV subject:
"Hello,
I am new to this part of the forum, so any help and/or criticism is much appreciated. I am in the market for a new TV to complete my Home Theatre. I am looking for a...
Greetings,
No, that didn't help. The PV800 is still making the noise. I suppose it's more of a 'hum' than a buzz. Had no problems with the old sub prior, so I know it's not a connection or power outlet. I heard a few other people had this problem with this particular subwoofer. I emailed...
Hi,
I just got my Boston Acoustic PV-800 sub today. Originally, I thought I was doing a good thing and actually upgrading from my old Boston Acoustic PV-600. Two things I notice right off the bat:
1) It seems a heck of alot 'quieter' (or less presence) on the same level and settings as my...
Wow, with all the intellects in this forum, I am surprised I got so many resonses :-) What is a pre-pro? Should I bag the receiver and go separates?
Steve
Hello,

*DTS-ES 6.1 compatable
*THX and Ultra compatable
*Prologic
*5.1 surround
*100-200 Watts per channel...
Hello,
I recently purchased the Klipsch Reference series speakers (RF7 mains, RC7 center, and 3 RS7 surrounds) for my 6.1 HT. I have a Boston Acoustic PV600 sub which I am upgrading to the PV800 in a few weeks. I am not sure how to set my bass management with these new speakers. Which...
If you are going to listen to the music you described, they will fit well. Mine should be arriving in a few days. When I went to demo them, they had a Mariah Carey CD on. Being she has such a wide vocal range, the speakers complimented her voice almost perfectly (or did her voice compliment the...
Hi,
I just bought the Klipsch RC-7 (center), Klipsch RF-7 (pair mains), and 3 of the Klipsch RS-7 surrounds (the odd one for the rear center of my 6.1 setup). I am going from tower surrounds to these and I am not quite sure where to place these new dipoles.
My room is 21' x 14' approx. My TV...

Hi,
I just purchased a pair of Klipsch RS-7 surround speakers:

Can someone suggest a product or anything which I could use to either mount these or a stand that would elevated them about 5 feet off the ground?
Also, should I place them...
Hello,
I've had this Sony Wega 27FS17 for 2 months now. I like it alot and have gotten quite used to it. However, when I went 'browsing' at the department store the other day, I noticed that the Wega's in comparison to other brands have quite a grainy screen. I guess being used to it, I...
Hello,
This is probably a common question here, but I could not find the answer through a search. I am looking in the next few months for a 16:9 widescreen TV for the house. Obviously for widescreen DVD's, this is ideal. Now, what happens if for example, you are watching regular TV on it...
Hello,
I am currently in the process of giving my Home Theatre speakers an overhaul since my front mains are starting to kick the bucket (cone blew on one). What I have auditioned and found that I liked thus far are the Klipsch RF series, but the RF-5 or RF-7 in particular for my front...
Hey, thanks for the response. I was thinking the same thing. Time to upgrade to some "top of the line' speakers. Muy only question is....what will maych well with my AR2C's?
I saw a few good responses already. I am just extremely frstrated. I just upgraded everything else, now the mains bite...
What a travesty. I spent the past 5 months looking for a center to match my mains. Now it seems the mains have kicked the bucket. I dont even play the stuff that loud. What gives? I need help please....
I currently have an Acoustic Research AR2C center channel. Recently it seems that I've blown my other mains that matched quite nicely with this speaker. I need advice on what mains I should get to match now since I've apparently blown my old mains. Any help is appreciated as always. Thanks...
Hello,
I realized tonight that one of my Kenwood JL-965AV's have a blown cone, one of the woofers. Is it worth replacing? How costly is it to replace? How difficult is it to replace? Thanks for any help. I am extremely frustrated at the thought of having to shell out even more cash for a...
