I previously owned Paradigms. I had mini monitors, and CC-370. I know have rockets, The RSC200 center and RS150's for fronts and rears. While I find them similar sounding the I am able to drive the rockets much further. They never sound strained, while the paradigms would at times. The 200...

Yes I ordered it on Tuesday. I sold my speakers in a day on Ebay! Gotta love ebay. I do want the 250's. I was told by av123 that the RS200 is going to overpower the 150's, but for now it is going to have to do. Hopefully by summer I will be able to afford the 250's or maybe even the 550's. I...

I too purchased 2 pair of the 150's (missed the 250's on sale:frowning: and have to say I was quite surprised at how good they sounded. I originally bought them to be side and rear surrounds in a 7.1 layout but after trying them in place of my Paradigm mini monitors up front I actually have kept...

I just ordered some new surround speakers and want to configure my setup for 7.1. My Onkyo 787 only has 6 amps so I am going to use an old pioneer receiver to power the side channels. If I understand things correctly all I need to do is use two rca cables from the pre outs on my receiver to any...

I just saw this for the second time this afternoon. It plays much better the second time through. God I love this movie. Just so many great moments. For some reason the flow seemed much better this time through, maybe its just because I was able to just sit back and watch the movie without the...

:emoji_thumbsup: I saw this movie on Wednesday night. I don't see how any other movie could ever top this one. Yes the beginning of the movie did seem a little disjointed, but from about 45 minutes on it was absolutely spectacular. I was transported to middle earth. I thought all of the actors...

I just saw this last night. I think I just saw the best movie I will ever see in my life. So many great scenes. Sean Astin has just nailed Sam, just an amazing gutty performance. The last 90 minutes or so was flawless. I agree that Jackson did a great job of showing the effect the ring had on...

Has anyone else had audio problems? I noticed a lot of distortion at the end of the disk, I was about -15 on my dial below reference level. THe worst was when Theoden and Aragon are getting read to ride out against the orcs right before Gandalf comes back. It sounded horrible, I thought my...

Yeah, the file itself is bad, lip synch is off, etc, but the actual footage is good. Its nice just to see something from my most anticipated film of the year! The mood is dark and you can sense the dispair and hopelessness of the situation. THe music is good as well.

I agree with Office Space, major bomb in the theaters. I know its done well on dvd, but that film is just one of the funniest of all time. They really must have screwed up the marketing for that one.

its a looooonnnggg way till December.

I just saw this. I must watch it a few more times, but looks good, of course why wouldn't it. I wonder if its from the dvd as opposed to the real trailer.

I'm hearing sounds out of my right speaker that I can't tell are part of the movie or a problem with the disk. During several scenes. (Frodo at the Inn, Gandalf in the tower and a couple of other spots I'm hearing a loud popping or it actually sounds like someone driblbling a basketball. Its...

Does anyone else have a video store that puts out new DVD's early? I went to rent a movie last night and was surprised tothe see the new Harry Potter DVD on the shelf. So I bought it. It was actually quite good. I've never read the books and only bought it so my kids could watch it when they...

I used home depot 12 gauge speaker wire.

I agree. When we built the house, I was horrible about taking pictures. I think I have like 10 pictures of the whole house going up. With all that was involved it seems I never got around to taking pictures. I made sure for this project that I did take pictures at each of the major steps...

I put GOM on my walls and love the results. I used ceiling tiles behind it on the bottom half and Dacrom batting on the top. The material was actually pretty easy to put up and saved me from having to tape all that sheetrock.:) Instead of tape I caulked all the sheetrock seems. Overall I'm...

I just put my ceiling up a couple of weeks ago. I special ordered come Armstrong ceiling tiles from home depot is black. The grid I painted as there was a minimum order for black grid pieces. It really went together pretty easily. I agree with Jon_Are if you plan it out well you can...

Here are some pictures of my home theater project. I'm currently in the final stages and can't wait to finish. I started it last Spring and after taking the summer off(had to do outdoor projects you know), I started up again in November and have been working on it every weekend since. It...
