I am having a new family room built and I am running the in wall speaker wires. I am doing this on a budget. I bought jacketed in wall approved cable for the surrounds with wall plates. The electrician is about to do rough in. I could drill separate holes for my speakers and I know that is...
I'm near the end of my rope looking for creative solutions to getting hd signals into my house. 1--I live in a region that has almost no over the air television. We get one nbc affiliate that just went digital and one pbs station. That is all there is and that is all there will ever be...
Anyone out there getting hd from Adelphia? I know that Comcast, Cox and Time Warner offer it through the Scientific Atlanta 3100hd or other devices in select markets. I am trying to find out if my lord and master cable behemoth is even offering a sniff of this stuff to clients in their larger...
I just got the Sony xbr800 36 inch and have done the avia setup. It looks great with dvd and the digital channels on cable and even the analog channels come through pretty decent most of the time. I have been fiddling with the adjustable drc(digital reality creation)--their line doubler--to get...
Are rgb connectors and dvi connectors the same? Can you plug an rgb computer cable into a dvi slot or does it require a special dvi cable? I presume they are different but thought someone might know for sure.
My saga continues--I just went out and bought the Sony xbr800 36 inch tv. I don't know how I feel about the step down from a 52 inch rptv, but after alot of research and checking my viewing habits--it makes sense. I will do some tweaking and get used to the picture before doing AVIA,m but I...
I've come all the way around until I'm more mixed up than when I started. It all started when my 15 year old rptv mitsubishi died on me. I went out and got a new 55inch mitsu widescreen--my dream tv. I then learned the hard lesson that these tvs only look good with hd signals, dvd, or at...
Not opening the can of worms--but I do have a question. If I buy a set that has neither dvi nor the ieee34 firewire(sic), then am I hosed? Crutchfield is running some decent closeout prices on some sets that have neither of these inputs--I am looking to hold this set maybe as long as 8-10...
I am getting close to returning my mitsu widescreen 55 because of the sources I watch. It has a great picture on dvd and if I could get hdtv(or were willing to wait 4 years until my cable company starts delivering it--no satellite or ota channels where I am situated). The problem is that I watch...
Still working on my new Mitsubishie ws55809 to improve the picture. Progressive scan dvd looks fabulous. Digital cable looks so-so now, have the satellite guy coming today to see if I can get reception and kiss the folks at Adelphia goodbye except for a limited local channel package. Thh digital...
I just got a mitsubishi ws55809. The picture out of the box is pretty good but may benefit from a calibration. I could try to find a pro to do it(probably a good idea) but was interested in exploring AVIA or another product. The user tuning options with the tv are limited to the...
Just took a Mitsubishi 55809 out of the box and have been setting it up. The DVD picture looks great, the vhs pretty good, but my digital cable is driving me nuts. All of the analog channels look like garbage--the digital somewhat better. I am having the satellite guy come out Thursday but I am...
