My last Onkyo receiver was purchased in 2002. NOT EVEN HDMI Support :o I am definitely due for a new receiver!

Hey Robert_eb, I also live in Michigan, in the Detroit area. I have been to a couple places and the cheapest I have found the new Panny PT53TW53 is at Paulsons in Farmington Hills, for $1797. CC will match that price but their warranty isn't near as close as cheap or good. If you could point...

You think that being a computer programmer and a college grad that home audio connection would be a breeze, however, poorly writter manuals and directions lead me here to people who have been there before. I don't have anything too complex, I just need to know the optimal way to hook it all up...

I am using an S-video cables. One from the monitor out on the stereo receiver to the S-video in on the TV. Also from my DSS receiver to the stereo receiver. And from my DVD player to the stereo receiver. The one from the stereo to the TV is brand new. I think I will head to the store and pick up...

i have a 3 year old 27" Toshiba TV. I recently purchased a whole new HT setup. I am using my Onkyo receiver to do the video switching, but I am having 1 major problem. The video 1 setting on my TV is in black and white. Does anyone know what could be causing this? If I watch the TV on TV, color...

Ok, I read in my manual that the RCA and the S-video are interchangable, ie, the feed in RCA, feeds both S-video out and RCA out. I have monitor out to my TV hooked up with S-video. I have my DSS receiver hooked up via RCA's and can get that to work on my tv. However, I have my DVD player hooked...

Please bear with me, my stereo knowledge to this point has been limited to little shelf systems. I managed to get a whole new stereo setup, and I also managed to get it all hooked up, but I have some questions as to if it's hooked up right or the best way to hook it up. I will list what I...

I setup my new stereo and am not getting any sound out of the left channel with my direct TV receiver. I know it's not the RCA cable, have tried it with my DVD player just fine. I tried multiple video inputs on my Onkyo stereo receiver, with the same result. So, I have narrowed it down to the...

The Polk Atrium Speakers sound great. In fact, they gave me the chance to get $200 in credit for them and purchase other bookshelves, but I opted to keep the atrium speakers because they sounded so good. I will probably upgrade to actual bookshelves one day and put the atrium's outside, I think...

I wanted to say thanks to everyone who replied to my first post. I was finally able to line up some new gear this weekend so I thought I would share. Keep in mind that I had an in at a local MI chain store, so I made the most out of my choices. Fronts: Polk RT800i Center: Polk CSi30 Rears...

Surprising to hear that the JBL NSP-1 have a good sound to them. It just seems that most of the systems I have listened too that are an all in one type deal didn't produce the best sound. I will definitely keep them in mind. Any other suggestions out there?

Budget: $1500 I'm not an audiophile, but I can appreciate good sound. I have been pushed towards spending about $699 on a combo satellite speaker set at retail stores, ie Bose. I would never do it from comments on this forum and from just going in and listening to the type of sound these...

I own a Samsung DVD player, for now. Had a big fight with them when my old one wouldn't play dual layer DVD's. They sent me a replacment DVD player, model DVD-M201, I think. That will also be replaced in this process I'm sure. I would be using the system for music as well as a surround system...

I basically only own 2 speakers worth anything. Two 12" Cerwin Vega Floor speakers. They were given to me when a friend upgraded to a new set of CV, they both have recently replaced subs. I have done much reading and some chain store shopping without much to show for it. Basically, sales...
