I'm surprised nobody has yet suggested any of the RP CRT's. I see downsides to ALL the "digital" technologies. Those downsides simply don't exist with CRT's. Plasma: I see the pixel structure -- on even the more expensive, HD models. At 8', this would drive me nutty, especially for that much...

I currently have a 2-reciever SD DirectTV system, one reciever for my HT and another that feeds the rest of the TV's in the house, (3), (all the same signal modulated to channel 65). I also have basic cable which is fed to all TV's through an amplifier. I would like to upgrade the HT and at...

Thanks for the very informative replies! I think the most appropriate suggestion is that I go audition the FP's I'm considering to get a better handle on their ambient light tolerances. I'll need to reseach the High-end Video shops in Philly and NY to see if I can audition these units somewhere...

I'm seriously considering a FP, possibly the NEC HT1000 or the Sony VLP HS10. While I don't have any experience with FP's, I have been into HT for a LONG time! My current TV is a 1987 Pioneer SP 501, one of the "original" 50" RP TV's, (that still looks spectacular, I might add). If I want to...

Ted, Thanks for the reply and the info. A few more questions: Does the coaxial digital audio work? Is it a Dolby Digital 5.1 signal? Also, are the "stereo" outputs Dolby Pro-Logic or just plain stereo? Thanks for the help! Craig

I just spoke to the Comcast Service Scheduler trying to find out what connections they use to hook up Comcast Digital HD cable. The woman wasn't quite sure what I was talking about, especially when I asked her about DVI or Component Video and Coax Digital Audio. She asked "an installer" about...

Thanks fella's! I found my answer at projectorcentral.com. They have a calculator which can determine the appropriate throw distance. It appears that the VPL-HS10 LCD projector will work perfectly in my HT space with a screen size of about 100 inches -- exactly what I was hoping for...

I am considering a Sony VLPHS10 DLP Projector. This unit should be avialable soon in the US. Does anyone know how to calculate the focal length? IOW, if I know where I want to mount the projector and how far away the screen will be, how do I calculate the screen size? Conversely, if I know the...
