With the (seeming) rise in popularity of 3D movies, assuming they have the same standard across all theaters, is there a market for premium 3D glasses? While you will probably end up paying extra no matter what, it would be nice to have a pair of 'studio' grade glasses to use when watching these...

We have had a 720p Mitsubishi RPTV for about 2 years and its been fine. Used a Denon 1720 DVD player with component video out and things have looked fine. However, bought a Denon 1730 for $50 because we needed the 1720 for elsewhere. Hooked up the 1730 with HDMI to the Mits and got everything...

...and CD player (Primare I21 and CD21). Despite the modest power rating, this little integrated is a monster. The #1 requirement is that I can beat the snot out of the speakers, in that they can handle a lot of power on very demanding music (lots of electronic music with bone-crushing bass)...

Here: http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTE...d_tv_newbravia Looks like some nice stuff.

...assembles products, boxes/packs them, etc. I am looking for low-cost companies to make some products (cabinet/grill in particular) and am having a hard time finding anything. I would assume Mexico or China. It does not need to be anything fancy, it needs to be basic and affordable. This would...

Having 2, 8-ohm drivers together (making either a 4 or 16-ohm load I guess) and then having a 8-ohm tweeter in the mix? The amp would be able to handle any sort of load I threw at it (other than maybe a half-dozen 15" woofers). Two of these (or similar 8-ohm driver)...

To build smallish speakers (no tower speakers, huge subs). Table saw, router and Jasper Jigs, clamps for cabinets, what other stuff is needed? I will assume making sure the cabinet lines up perfectly perpendicular is very important as well! What tools do I *NEED* to get started? Thanks!

I will cut to the chase. I would like to learn about designing and making crossovers. Initially, I will be looking at simple, inexpensive 2-way crossovers. Any books, websites, etc. where I can learn the basics? Are there master designs you normally use, but just use different values of...

I am toying with the idea of starting a business and have been talking with some driver OEM's about various things (looks like some of the driver companies can make me 4 and 8 ohm versions for little or no extra cost, that's hurdle #1) However, I still need someone to build and finish a box...

I have a Mits WD-52528 and a MX-850 remote (will learn/do ANYTHING). Everything works great, but is there a discreet command to change the input to HDMI? I cannot find anything and it is a tiny, little detail that is holding back everything. The 'fun' solution would be a receiver with HDMI...

If I wanted to use 3, 8 ohm drivers together (in one cabinet), how could I wire them to get between 4-8 ohms? The only thing I could think of would be, wire two together to get 4 ohms, and then add the 3rd driver in. That would get me 5.33 ohms (acceptable). However, would this cause the...

...had ~100 red lines going thru the screen when turned on. They hauled it away last week, and now its back. First, they replaced the entire light engine - whats that, about $1000? Second, the new light engine looks BETTER than the old! There was some vertical banding (I think) on the...

LOL, I was thinking, if that subwoofer was corner loaded in a 13' X 14' X 9' bedroom, what would it do? My Klipsch SUB-12 can do some serious work, but this thing would probably be fatal :D

Would this work: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16812123083 My Harman Kardon has a firmware update, and I need to connect it to my computer. However, finding the proper cable is easier said than done. The USB to serial cables do not work. The input on the receiver is...

Saw King King today. Picture was focused, no laser pointers or cell phones, and the sound was 'fine'. Nice movie, but anyway. I really wonder, do (some) movie theaters process their sound from what comes on the reel? The sound at the theater was clear, clean, and accurate, but compared to my...

Not eliminate, but maybe have 2-4 in and 1 out - and thats it. The freed up space and cost could go to more component video, or having HDMI at a lower price point. I would not think it would be overkill to have 4, 5, 6 component ins, as well as a bunch of HDMI. Also, no need for a dozen...

These: http://www.bostonacoustics.com/wha_home.aspx I say that is pretty weak. Low-profile plasma-friendly speakers have their place, but to replace your flagship speakers with this sort of stuff pains me. More info at CES I guess. BTW, I am not a Boston fan/owner, they have always...

Looking at 6-8 cu. ft. ported box and using the 15" Dayton Quatro woofer: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/pshow...60&ctab=1#Tabs Yes, I could get a bigger, badder woofer, but then it would require a bigger, badder amp, and it would just get out of control. WinISD shows that in the box I...

...I have a ton of those $.50 4" full range Parts Express drivers they blew out. I want to make some speakers, and am debating the use of 4 or 9 drivers (those can get me to a nice 8 ohm load), or some other configuration. First question: How much will total SPL output change between using...

Isn't OLN about to roll one out? I also head rumors that FoxNews was in the process of going to HD.

...is this something they can fix, or will the TV be 'totalled'? Still under Mits warranty, but have the Magnolia Service plan as well. Can you even replace just one part, or would the whole light engine need to be replaced?

How would something like this work out? This is mega-ultra overkill in terms of speakers, but how is the shape of the room and the overall idea? The grid represents 1' Click for picture

...we got a 52" Mitsubishi (WD-52528) and sometimes, when you first turn it on, there are about 100 thick red horizontal lines across the screen that stay there for between 15 seconds and a few minuites. It is not the source, but something in the TV. Any ideas?

Have a new Mits WD-52528 TV and have it plugged into a older Pioneer receiver (711, had DD and DTS) via a digital coax cable to watch HD channels. However, the sound keeps dropping out. The 'digital' light will turn off them immediatly come back on, causing a annoying .1-1 second sound...

It is the one and only ***TRUE*** HD channel I can consistantly pull in great video quality quality. Mmmmm, travel show in Switzerland, look at the pretty colors. Ohhhh, they are chasing Leopards, I can see fur!!! I don't really care what is on, as long as it is in HD and widescreen. I...

I know they have new satellites and will start broadcasting more HD material and will have a lot more bandwidth. I also know the current boxes (for HD at least) will need to be replaced. We have a mew HDTV and standard DirecTV, and needless to say, we are ready to get some better quality...

Thought there might be something by this point, but nothing. I really want to see what is coming. Surprised more people are not getting anxious :D

Obvsiously, HMDI is coming to more and more units in the coming months - and years, however, why so few component video inputs? For example: http://www.bkcomp.com/507large.htm Great unit and it does have three component inputs. However, anyone who owns a unit like this will have a HD...
