I'm wanting to start watching HDTV, but I am not sure on how to go about it. I have a Hitachi 61" HDTV ready big screen and Directv service with the 18"x24" dish. I assume I need to have a seperate HDTV tuner. This is about as much as I know on receiving HD broadcasts, please help!!! Thanks...
When I bought my house last year, Dish Network hardware was already in place. So I decided to try them out. I had Directv before and after a few months with the Dish Network I decided to go back to Directv. I went with one of their intro packages but upgraded to the oval dual-lnb dish. I went...
Looking to get a seperate sub for my HT. I have Infinity IL60's, which are powered towers. I think I would get better results from a seperate sub. I know that issue has been discussed before, but I don't have alot of knowledge on really good subs. Any suggestions on brand or size or whatever you...
I am looking into getting a parasound 1205a for my denon 3802. I have been doing research in the forum here and everyone says ubid.com is the place. I have never dealt with them. Does the parasound stuff come and go? I seem to be having trouble finding any parasound equipment on the site. If...
Just started getting my HT up and running and was wondering if I was losing anything by not having a separate sub since my fronts are Interlude IL60's. I am running 5.1 right now with IL36c center and IL10's on the rear. I am trying to fill a large area with sound, your basic great room, open...
I've read several different articles that talked about the disadvantage of using your sub-out jack on the back of your receiver. I am no expert in this field so I hope I explain myself clearly. From what I understand they say that the low pass filters from the sub and receiver do not interact...
Thanks for all the information. I take from what you guys are saying that pretty much all optical cables are pretty good at transfering light. Other than build quality and a set of "gazelle" sharp ears, you won't find much difference. Thanks again, dave-u
Is there a difference between all the different toslink cables out there?. Just trying to make a wise choice. Is the $40 cable really better than the $10?? Thanks for the info dave-u
I'm looking for an amp that would work well with my new denon 3802. I'm sure this has been asked before, but would like some suggestions for my equipment. I like alot of volume with tight bass, but it must be clear. Would it been resonable to assume that a 3 channel would work fine and let the...
Thanks for ideas Bob. I'm still trying to figure out how to set-up my speaker configurations. Do you know where I can buy-rent an AVIA disk? Would the r.a.b.o.s system to the same thing? Thanks dave-u
In being new to this great hobby, I was wondering what the next step was in getting everything possible out of my HT stuff. 3802 receiver, dvd-1600, IL60's,IL36c, IL10's. I like movies and jazz. Maybe some Metalica now and then. Thanks, dave-u
