Gregg did my set last week. He did keep me abreast of every step, even though I hardly knew what he was talking about. I finally got a chance to watch a DVD on the newly calibrated unit, and new progressive scan player this past weekend. Stunning. My old DVD player/TV setup made movies look...
Ken, good to hear. I have the same set, but not the problem described above. Gregg visits me tomorrow. I'm hoping he can make a drastic improvement. As it stands now, I wish I hadn't bought the set. My 32" Sony is soooo much nicer to look at. Guess I'll know tomorrow.
Mark, I love hearing that. My new Toshiba 50" doesn't look all that great to me. I did the Avia think with mixed results. I have requested a ISF cal from Gregg. Hopefully he'll have enough interest in my area to go ahead and schedule one for me. I really hate spending the money, but I don't...
Well, my DirecTV receiver (Sony SAT-T60 TiVo), does not component out. My other TiVo, a Hughes HDVR2 doesn't have those outputs either (brand new unit). My DVD system either. The only thing I have that does is my Toshiba Portable SDP-2000. It has component out and progressive scan. Why my...
Well, the Avia disk is on the way. I somehow managed to get the wife onboard for a HDTV receiver (must be my good looks). Anyway, I was going to pick up the bottom end Samsung since I already have DirecTV w/Tivo. And an antenna of some type. This is a temporary thing until the end of the year...
I'm ordering the Avia disk today. I'll cross my fingers. The demo at the store was supposedly a DVD recorded from an HDTV signal (what I was told anyhow). The clips did loop. At the moment I have DirecTV fed throught a combo receiver thats a TiVo. They don't make the HDTV/TiVo combo yet. I...
I wouldn't mind paying for a calibration (how much is a calibration??), if I knew I would get the results I *think* I should have. Being my first set, I'm unsure what "optimal" looks like. I think I got composite and component confused. I have the video, audio RCA jacks, The S-video with RCA...
I just purchased a Toshiba 50" wide screen. I've hooked it up to my Sony t-60 via the S-video input as well as the regular coax. The picture isn't all that impressive. Some horizontal lines, blockiness, fuzziness, and jaggies. Nothing radical mind you, but a big difference from the 32" Sony Tube...
