Hi, A friend just called figuring I'd know the answer to this - which I don't, but figured you all would. He's having contruction done and will be storing the 42" Sony flat screen to protect if from damage. He asked if it's better to store it vertically or horizontally. I assume these are...

my HK 320 is just over a month old. before its arrival, the digital cable signal (Time Warner Cable - Scientific Atlanta box I believe) went from the box directly to the TV (Sony 42" rear projection) via RCA's. The DVD player used the TV's svideo in. Thanks to the receiver's component...

the Paradigm manual doesn't seem to address this, so thought I'd check and see if anyone who has one knows. the PDR-10 is supposed to have auto shut-off. when I turn off my amp, the amber LED on the front of the sub stays on. I didn't know if this light is supposed to indicate "power-on" or just...

with all the Bose posts, I thought I'd post my recent "real world" observations on my recently replaced 201s. I bought the Bose 201's about 5 years ago. I wanted a basic set of bookshelf speakers for a recently obtained "hand me down" receiver. I figured going with a "trusted name" in...

hi. I'm looking to mount one of my Paradigm Atoms (surround) to the wall. So that it can mount on the back wall and aim toward the listener, I'll be mounting them at 90 degrees (also won't block the rear port). I know the Premier m-60's are the "official" mounting bracket for the...

Seems like many places in the NYC area don't have the newer Denon's in stock. 6ave says it won't be in for a few weeks. JandR says it is not in yet, etc. Some reference the CA dockworkers strive preventing shipments from coming in. Has anyone else found this? Anyone know places in NYC that...

the Dolby page shows the alternative placement of surrounds putting them slightly behind the listener, aimed straight up at the ceiling (raised slightly off the ground). I did a search and saw it stated this can lead to nice dispersion. but my search didn't come across any posts saying...

after months of pondering I'm feeling ready to pull the trigger. I remember the swim teacher having to push me off the diving board as a kid, and I'm looking for her final shove right now. the items: -Paradigm Titans (rosenut) fronts $200 -Atoms rear (might take home the cinema series as...

after reading the board endlessly for months on end, I may be ready to make a purchase. because I'm in an apartment, I was all set to go the sat/sub route. I was thinking about the Paradigm Cinema Series for this. Then I kept reading about bookshelfs being a better call. So I figure size up...

been trying to decide on a receiver for my parent's home theater setup for weeks now. Finally decided on Denon, the 1802 for that matter. Then, like anything, the more I read the boards, etc., I started thinking "maybe the 2802 would be better?" 6 Ave. and JandR have the 1802 for around...

hi all. am in the process of purchasing a receiver for my parents system (Sony KD-34xbr2 HDTV, Sony progressive scan dvd, polk 6600 speakers). I was close to set on the Denon 1802. I thought however, that they might find it tricky to switch the Video switch on the TV, and switch the receiver...

hi all. I did a search, I'm not a slacker, but still am not certain on the cable issue. have a new Sony KD-34xbr2 HDTV and a Sony progressive scan DVD player I need to hook up. I'm weary of the Monster Cables the salesmen pitch because I feel like I'm getting suckered into their...

considering the JBL PB10 sub to go along with JBL NPS1 package at JandR. As this is a floor firing sub and I live in an apartment with neighbors below, was wondering if this made any difference in terms of how it would disturb them (i.e. how loud I can put it without concern). does a front...

Been reading the forum for weeks trying to decide on a $400 range receiver. also have listened as well. first I thought I was set on the Onkyo SR600, but the power and clipping stories turned me off. I know not everyone experiences the clipping, but I've had it on an older receiver and it's...

I went down to JandR last weekend to listen to speakers. I've been pretty set on the JBL's as they're so often recomended in the Forum. I also listened to the Klipsch Quintets. I liked the crisp highs. however after coming home and searching on them, I read some say the high's sound good in...

- I accidentaly posted this in the Receivers section... now that I think I've settled on the JBL NSP1 setup for myself (thanks to the advice of the forum), I've been looking to find a speaker package for my folks. one thing they would really find appealing would be if the satellites were in...

sorry, I posted this in the wrong section :frowning:

Well I've been reading through the posts here for several weeks now, and been spending the last couple of months trying to decide on what to purchase. My current Kenwood receiver does not have Pro Logic, so that's the first thing I need. I don't want to spend boat loads on a system. I live...
