    How do I do wireless audio?

    Hi all, here's my dilemma: I am putting up a new projection system with a 10" diagonal screen. I've already picked out and ordered the components, but in already built room I need a way to get the audio from the rear of the room to the front wirelessly. I have a couple Denon receivers, so I was...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    Also....I agree with the comment regarding monoprice.com. They are definitely the way to go on cables. I would add that getting a lower gauge wire (bigger wire) is a good thing too and don't get a cable any longer than you need. If you're 11 feet away the 65" will be fine. It will likely impress...

    Lighter is the key factor. Their existing glasses seem a bit heavy.

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    UPDATE: Now that I've had this set about 45 days I will provide some more impressions: This set is great for 2D. I have NO regrets at all about this purchase. Its a wonderful set. I have also had time to assess the 3D features. I have been able to watch some 3D world cup, the All...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    I use the receiver for sound, (For both DirecTV and 3D Blu-ray) but I run the HDMI cables directly to the TV for picture. That is actually a non-hdmi receiver but its fine for surround in my master bedroom. I honestly don't know what is needed in the way of a receiver or what is available to...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    Update. I took the chance to watch a bit of the world cup soccer on the set. The 3D effect is quite amazing. I don't find the glasses particularly uncomfortable (there are a few choices of rubber nose clips that come with the glasses for added comfort). I also have no problems with the 3D...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    I don't know whether it is "appropriate". I would think it would be up to me if I want to share that info. The rub probably begins if the site turns into a forum for pushing certain retailers.....but you didn't ask where I got it....so I paid $3300 plus less than $200 for in the threshold...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    Okay here are some pics...the TV is in my master bedroom....how sick am I? I have a 3D ready Mitsu 73" in the home theater, so I will need something from Mitsu to be able to use it in 3D (at least I heard they will work out that issue). This first pic of course appears out of focus because its...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    Ron, I think I got very lucky as I was checking daily for a online retailer and called one the day after they received the sets. They also happened to be having a sale that day! So I got the set early and on sale....how sweet is that? I had read some of your posts earlier about 3d. It...

    Panasonic 3D Plasma is in the house

    Well I took delivery of my 65" 3D Plasma on June 2nd! (Pan TC-P65VT25) One word: WOW! I waited for the 65" and I'm glad I did. The picture is superb in 2D, which is good because there will be a wait for more content. DirecTV is suppose to introduce some 3D channels later this month so...

    No signal to HDTV from HTPC video card via DVI/HDMI adapter

    Has nobody run into this problem? More importantly, is there a solution? In the meantime I have updated the NVIDIA control panel software and it has more features, including the ability to adjust the picture size precisely. Also, for now I am using the S-video to component adapter. I am...

    Looking for a DVD Copier!!!

    I'm not sure why anyone (EVERYONE SO FAR) is ASSUMING that this question is in any way related to copyright infringement. There are legitimate reasons to be making copies! There must be good answers to this question. I'm not knowledgeable about this topic, but someone out there must be. Aren't...

    do I need decorder in DVD?

    The audio signals need to be decoded for true 5.1 Some DVD players have built in decoders, some don't. I believe the signal passes (If hooked up digitally) to the receiver and as long as the receiver can decode the signal you are alright. So, my question is: Is a DVD player with a built in...

    do I need decorder in DVD?

    So I am trying to decide on a new DVD player for the HT. How badly do I need a decoder in the DVD player- Can't that function be done by the receiver? I was looking at the Denon DVD1600 vs 2800 vs Sony NS755, NS900 or S9000ES. There seems to be a big difference in price for what you get...
