Can a good projector with component inputs and a screen be had (new or used) for 1500 or less? If so, what brands and models of projectors should I be looking for?

I see these on Audiogon quite frequently. Anyone have or heard them? They use quality SEAS, Scanspeak and Peerless drivers, so they can't be all bad. Just curious what the verdict is on this boutique speaker manufacturer. Their user reviews at audioreview are quite good.

These started shipping in late June...has anyone heard good or bad? I haven't been able to find any reviews online.

Is there really a difference? I'm going to be upgrading my amp to a Rotel RMB-1075 and DVD/DVD-A player to a Rotel RDV-1060. When I do, I'll have the opportunity to get a full trade-in on my MIT AVt 3-series copper interconnects if I upgrade to the MIT AVt 1-series silver interconnects. Will...

Willing to go as low as $140 per monoblock, shipping included. I have original boxes and materials for three of the monoblocks. Condition conservatively rated at 8/10 - would be 9/10 but I am the second owner. I have only had them for a month or so and they have worked wonderfully...

I've seen quite a few of these coming up on Audiogon now that the DV-8400 is out. How does this unit rate as far as Universal players go and how is the video performance? Any help is appreciated. EDIT: I searched the reviews at ecoustics and they don't help much. Some thought is was a great...

I may be in the market for 3 Marantz MA 700 Monoblocks. Must be in good condition - minimum of 8/10. If you have any available, contact me at [email protected]

Looking for a quality 3 or 7 channel amplifier in good condition (at least 8/10 and smoke/pet free) in the range of 100-150 watts of output per channel at 8 ohm loads.

Right now I have my RSX-1055 running Dynaudio Audience 122 mains (6 ohm) and Dynaudio Audience 42 surrounds (4 ohm), with a Dynaudio Audience 122C (6 ohm) to arrive this week. This is quite a load for a one-box solution like the 1055. I'm thinking about picking up a multichannel amp to decrease...

Short of buying a new set, what can I do to improve DVD picture quality? I recently purchased my Mitsu WS-48311 RP HDTV and I'm getting a bit disappointed with the picture quality. The picture seems excessively grainy on newer movies that probably shouldn't appear to be that way. I've also...

Does anyone know what this product is going to be? The link still isn't working. Is this going to be the sealed Tempest unit?

My Mitsu WS-48311 arrived today. I've tweaked the convergence settings, but I'm curious about when an official calibration is needed. Do you need one when the set is new?

Anyone looking for a new-to-you TV? I have a 32" Panasonic Tau-series HDTV that I'm going to be selling. Originally purchased in late fall of 2001. This unit has been treated very well and has had no problems. The model code is CT-32HX41E. If interested, email me - [email protected]

I can pick up a Panasonic PT-53WX52 with screen shield for $1530 at a local shop. This looks like a pretty good buy, but it doesn't have a DVI connection. How important is having a DVI connection on a television purchased new right now? There are other units in the same relative price range that...

I'm getting some older audio equipment from my parents and I want to identify the record player. My mother said something about the record player being a "Circle of Sound" brand...or perhaps it was a sales slogan. The model is probably from the early to mid 70's and was probably not top-notch...

My parents are clearing out the closets at home and are going to give me their old audio equipment. I'm trying to figure out what sort of speakers I'll be getting. They are old, probably mid to late 70's models. They are cylindrical with the driver (probably a 5 or 6 inch driver) facing upward...

Should I go ahead and order the Denon 2900 or should I wait for a head-to-head review on the chance that the Yamaha is superior? Based on features alone, is the Denon likely to be a better buy?

I ordered a Rotel RSX-1055 (in silver) today from a local HiFi shop. I got a nice 10% discount on the purchase. Total for the receiver with tax was only $1250. I'll be matching it with Dynaudio Audience 122s, which I also ordered today at the same percentage discount, then adding a 122C, 42s for...

OK - right now I have a pile of crap HT in my living room. I'm using a Sony STR-DE545, DVP-NS700P and Klipsch quintets with a Klpisch KSW 10. My top-of-the-line Monster interconnects alone are worth more than most of this setup. So... I plan to upgrade to the following over the next few...

I'm looking for a good universal format player and I came across this Yamaha model at the $1000 pricepoint. The unit seems to have gotten fair to good reviews. Can anyone confirm that? Should there be any other makes/models that I should look at around the $1000 pricepoint?

I have auditioned both the Paradigm PS-1000 and the B&W ASW600 and I'm considering purchasing one of the two. Are there any other makes/models at $650 or less that I should audition before I make my decision?

I did some more auditioning today and I'm down to two choices: Marantz 7300ose or the Rotel 1055. Anyone have thoughts on either of those two pieces - good or bad? Is Rotel a better brand than Marantz?

I'm looking to upgrade my home theater and I'm looking for suggestions. I'm looking to spend somewhere around 2500 on a full set of sub/speakers and would like to make sure I don't miss anything. So far, I've auditioned Klipsch Reference series, Kef Q-series and the Paradigm Monitors (Monitor...

Denon 2803, 3803 vs. Marantz 7300 series I'm going to be picking up a new receiver sometime soon and I'm looking to spend anywhere from 800-1200. I've been looking at the Denon 2803 and 3803 as well as the Marantz 7300. Does anyone have experience with these models or recommend one over the...
