I'm wondering about the image quality of the new DVD drivers in progressive scan. Thanks for any help. Dan.B

The more DTS disks I acquire the more i'm beginning to wonder how there is any debate that DTS is better than Dolby Digital. I've only been on this board for 6-9 months now but i'm beginning to wonder just how anyone could honestly believe that DTS and DD are equals. I found a copy of Road...

Last year's game had a cool little option for exhibition games where you could play your game at the current time of day. It basically had a live clock option and you'd play with whatever current lighting would be at that time. Does anyone know if this year's game has that option? Thanks...

Last years Madden didn't so I was worried about this years NCAA 2003. Thanks Dan.B

I live on the top floor of a 3 floor apartment building. I'm really worried about upsetting my new neighbors while watching movies at night. Does anyone have sugguestions for what I can do to avoid transmitting as little sound as possible through my walls and floor? I've only got a 550...

Check it out! Nice graphics. ;) http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/driving...reenindex.html Can't wait to get this at home! Dan.B

I've heard there were some problems with the original releases of Jurassic Park with DTS. Thanks for any help. Dan.B

Both of these movies are by Paul Thomas Anderson. Both are in excellent condition with no scratches or defects on the disks. Let me know if your interested. Here are some movies i'm interested in getting. Jurassic Park Forrest Gump Shrek Men In Black (Superbit) The Rookie...

I just recently bought a 36" SONY HS510 HDTV. I would like some honest advice about calibrating it. How much would it cost? Is it worth my money? I have already made some adjustments and I feel the picture it very good as is but i'm interested to know just how much better it could actually get...

I finally saw the movie last night and like it a lot. :emoji_thumbsup: I certainly thought the transfer had some room for improvement though so i'm looking forward to picking up the Superbit release. I know it was announced just recently. Anyone have the date? Thanks. Dan.B

There have been a few threads on this movie already but none of them have seemed to mention the image quality issues this supposed "Superbit" has. I recall someone mentioning some edge enhancement but i've noticed several flaws beyond that. Here are two more you'll notice in the first 5...

Reading through a couple other threads today I noticed some really detailed reviews by "DVD secrets" and they gave very detailed results for a bunch of dvd players. I also saw someone else complaining about the Denon 2900 player and it's chroma issues. I'm basically just wanting to know if...

I was posted many months back. Anyone have the URL? Thanks! Dan.B

and I was quite impressed with what I saw. I ended up going with The Fifth Element as my first Superbit experience. I had seen the movie once during it's opening week in theaters and I remember it not holding my attention that well at the time. That was a different time in my life though and I...

Just wondering. Is it anamorphic too? Thanks. Dan.B

.....i've noticed a few things that puzzle me. I guess you can consider this thread a discussion of common mistakes people make with their home theater's. Everyone should give their opinions and i'm interested to hear other's feedback on this topic. From looking at many of the Home...

This is sort of a continuation of a thread I started a couple days ago. I had asked people for the best looking Superbit or regular dvd's out there. Now i'm wanting to see your Top 5 movies on DVD that were made before 1980. Also, try and mention if you know if the movie is only available in 4:3...

I'm just wondering if there is a list of anamorphic dvd's available anywhere? Occasionally I run into these movies at random stores that are really cheap and I consider buying them but i'm not sure if they're anamorphic or not. So, I usually just pass them up since the box didn't specify if it...

I don't own one of these things yet and i'm wondering which one is probably the best in terms of picture quality? Maybe someone could give a top 5 list of the Superbit's currently available? I just got my first HDTV and progressive player and i'm wanting to see the best it can show right...

I just saw the new "Network adapter package" PS2 system. I guess it also allows you to play dvd's in progressive scan. So, I was just wondering if anyone has had any info on the quality of the dvd player now. I'd love to know how well it performs. Dan.B

I finally got everything hooked up last night and I noticed a small problem with the 16:9 auto squeeze feature on my new 36HS510. My Sony dvd player immediately activated the squeeze mode but for some reason my Gamecube games and Burnout 2 on the Xbox wouldn't do it. They were displaying a 16:9...

After weeks of debate and discussion I ended up getting the new Sony KV-36HS510 this morning. After watching the delivery guy's (yes, 2 average sized guys carried this bad boy up 3 flights of stairs!) almost drop my new set on the way into my apartment (he fell and I had to help lift the tv off...

I'm looking at component switchers at Crutchfield.com and i've found a JVC for $99. It says it allows 30mhz of component video bandwidth. If I hook my xbox up to it will it transmit the 720p or 1080i signal? Thanks. Dan.B

I am suppose to be getting my 36HS500 Sony on Monday but I talked to a local store last night about something unrelated and after the salesman asked me a million questions about my new tv he offered me the NEW 36HS510 for the same price I paid for my HS500! I coudln't believe it but he was...

I just picked up a Sony 725p DVD the other day and i'm needing to buy some component cables so I can hook this baby up to my Sony 36HS500 next Monday when I finally take delivery on it! :) So, without breaking the bank any further can you guys give me some reccomendations on good cables for a...

As some of you may know already I purchased a Sony KV-32HS500 from Circuit City for $1200 last month. I knew I wasn't moving into my new apartment for another 6 weeks so I chose to have it delivered directly to the new apartment (on the 3rd floor) on the day I moved in. So, here I am about...

I've seen people post this info before but does anyone know the real dimensions when viewing 16:9 material on a 32" or 36" 4:3 screen? If possible i'd also love to know what the conversion is for a 2:35 image on a 36" 4:3 set? What i'm looking for is something like this: 32" 4:3 set...

I just wanted to know if anyone has any info or feedback on these brand HDTV from Sony. This is the new 32" HDTV. Anyone know what differences there are between this new HS510 and last year's HS500? http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTE...ImWETo&Dept=tv I've already noticed one big...

I'm just wondering since i'm moving into my new place next week and I don't want to have to go and spend $50 on wiring for my surround speakers. I just thought that it might be possible there are wireless surround systems out there somewhere. :) I may be crazy but hopefully someone knows for...

I've seen a few DVD players advertised in Home Theater magazines that allow for DVI video output. Can anyone tell me how much better this would look than a regular component connection? Also, what's the cheapest DVD player that allows for this? I'd love to use my DVi connection rather than use...
