My sub has a constant hum even when it is not hooked up to anything except being plugged into the wall. I tried using a cheater plug, plugging into different outlets, different houses. I'm thinking the amp might be bad. Problem is that this is a DIY Tempest sub i bought 3 or 4 years ago and I...
if you want a REAL good gaming chair get a standard recliner and wire it up with bass shakers from parts express. If you don't like the rumble feature with your controller than this wouldn't be for you.
the thing I hate about some game review sites is that the preview reviews of teh demo etc always build up the game and make it sound really good and then their actual post release review trashes it...I always feel tricked. Was the co-op strategy what was supposed to make Brute Force good? The...
not at the moment, but its right off the interstate 5, so come across the Blaine Border crossing and go all the way through Bellingham, until you get to the western Washington University exit...(if you've gone to fairhaven you've gone to far. take that exit and go straight at the first...
Sehome Cinema is redoing there theaters and have thrown out all their old seats. They are dismantled and some are damaged, a little paint/cleaning will do them good. I talked to a manager and he said he didn't care if anyone took the seats. Just thought some people might want to check it out. I...
whoa whoa whoa, the cgi yoda is a product of several years of progressing technology. the lightsaber scene is the only time where I wasn't completely "convinced", but Lucas understandably would have gotten blank stares many years ago if he would have asked for that scene. Its not "perfect" by...
---------------------------------------------------------- No one grows up and says "when I grow up I want to work in a video store for a living". Well maybe some people do, but those people are probably still living in their parents basements and play D&D with their friends on a friday night...
Karl F: hey i've heard of your store. My film teacher at WCC has mentioned it a time or two. I might have to check it out sometime. I don't think I work with an octavia, I work at Cordata DQ __________________________________________________ ______- Jake - as an employer, I have to say that I...
I can't imagine spending more money and getting an rptv...maybe if I had terrible ambient light, but Rptv's dont look that great in ambient light either.
my xbox is also noticeabbly darker than my other sources/consoles...luckily I have memory user settings on my projector so I have one with the settings higher for XBOX and can switch back and forth easily. Is that an option for any of you guys?
I don't mind buying a new player, or some new DVDS but the thing that gets me w/ HD DVD is this DVI input stuff, namely the HDCP dvi. I have a pany L300 w/DVI but no HDCP...I'm selfishly hoping that HD-DVD comes out in a few years when I will be upgrading anyway.
Hey Karl F, if you don't mind me asking what store do you own. I live in Bellingham also and am just curious. I have also grown tired of people on this forum and others bashing clerks, retail employees, projector operators etc...why are we so hard on these poor people just trying to make a...
I didn't like the plantation scene at all. For one it wasn't that good. In the original as the crew kept getting closer and closer to their destination things kept getting darker and their mental state and situation worsened and worsened. The plantation scene completely broke that up in my...
one on each side wall at the first reflection point found with the mirror. May put something behind the speakers, or experiment w/behind your head...other than that I don't know...I need this answered as well I guess.
don't worry about break in, don't play anything all day, just listen as usual. Crank it up as loud as you feel comfortable as long as it doesn't sound strained and all that.
I was wowed (still haven't decided good or bad...seems to depend on my mood) when Legolas does that wierd mount onto that horse against the Wargs in two towers. I saw the Matrix Reloaded today...many wows...but most noticeably the flying scenes, and the oncoming traffic of the freeway...
3 is a significant number I noticed, Holy Trinity, 3 captains at the end of Reloaded. etc...There is some good discussion going on here. I don't like to see people say taht because of this the script is impenetrable when it in fact is not. most of the discussion seems to be speculation as to...
I have a matrix reloaded poster with Neo, Trinity, and Morpheus on it...I'm sorry I just can't see Tank on that poster next to them. It does make me laugh. I MIGHT be able to see Tank on a poster if it was a Lord of the Rings type one where there are small headshots of many different...
best use of CGI for me has to be LOTR/TTT, but I'm biased towards those films anyway. I am all for CGI in most cases. Films like Reloaded, Spiderman, LOTR/TTT etc are really stretching the limits of the current technology it seems. Sometimes I notice its CGI like in the 100 smiths scene of...
try a linear or circular polarizing filter. pretty cheap ($30 bucks) and should work, I think you need a 62mm, try it out before you take it back, the X1's are a steal.
don't know if this is possible but get the tv sell it than buy a projector, an X1 possibly, that way you get a HUGE screen and don't have to worry about burn in. If thats not possible I would get a widescreen tv as you already have a 4x3.
try a polarizing filter, either circular polarizing or linear polarizing, they have some cheap ones on EBAY I recommend Hoya, I have heard people say this corrects uniformity problems and even rainbows. Don't pay more than $40 bucks for one. They are neutral density so they shouldn't mess with...
