Where I live (Canada), the plasma is about $1700 while the other two are $1800 so it is a bit cheaper but I'd spend the $100 more if one of the other sets were better. To give you an idea of my situation, I'd love a set that plays SD material very well and also HD material well once I get around...
They are all nearly the same price so it comes down to the quality of the set. The Aquos and the Toshiba are 1080p LCD sets while the Samsung is a 720p Plasma set. My viewing distance is about 8 to 9 feet away so based on that 720p would suffice but which one would you prefer and why? The only...
$1500 to $1700 is my limit with taxes (taxes in my area is 6%). What TV should I buy? The only requirement is that it's in the 40"-52" size range because my room is too small for a larger TV, and less than 40" is far too small. 1080p would be a definite plus but I'm not willing to settle for a...
well this is my first major TV purchase so did I pick out a good TV? I tried to do my research and came to this conclusion, would you guys recommend this TV and do you think its a good one? Also, I bought it at Futureshop (in Canada), and they are saying I should buy the warranty which is $280...
I'm just wondering since I plan on buying a 50" DLP TV. For this current generation I cant see that rainbow effect which is a good thing, but if friends come over they might be able to see it so I'm considering getting the 3rd generation DLP (assuming it has a faster color wheel). Though I'd...
thx for that one, anymore announcements at CEDIA that was TV related? One question that the FAQ didnt answer, can you use your existing component (or s-video) cables with those HDMI TV's?
I was advised to wait till CEDIA for any announcements for new technologies in TV's, and I'm sure many other people were as well. So in this thread, post any announcements that were made during CEDIA thats TV related. I have about $3500 for a new TV, so hopefully theres a new TV or something...
well I just looked it up, and the surrounds (the CR3's) are "Switchable Bipole/Dipole", so that would produce that effect you're talking about? I would like clear crisp sound, and I can either put the surrounds near my ears, or have the bookshelfs stand 3-4 feet in front from where I'm...
Well, I was opting for a 7.1 setup but that would be quite expensive. So what I'm thinking of doing is getting a 5.1 setup now, and maybe upgrade to 7.1 later down the road. Originally this was my setup: 2 Connoisseur C-9 2 C-1 bookshelf C-C3 centre speaker 2 CR3 surround speakers sub...
Keep in mind I have a 8' ceiling, 7' wide, 9' long room. Heres what it kinda looks like (hopefully the picture helps). I didnt have room to put where the speakers would be, and yes the door is at the foot of my bed (where I would be listening from). (7ft wide) ___window___ |----TV---sub-|...
^^yeah I was thinking about that, but I'm looking into long term since I know my future room will probably be larger, though the C-9's may still be too big? What setup would you recommend, C7's?
oooh baby, how much bass would that thing be? My home theater in a box crappy subwoofer got me a complaint, that beast would get me life! :p Is there such a thing that the sub is too powerful for your setup? This is what I'm thinking of: 2 Connoisseur C-9 2 C-1 bookshelf C-C3 centre...

ok, so would 10 gauge be too much for that setup? I'm kinda lost on that last bit about the F connectors. So I would need to get some RCA cables (shielded right?) for my subwoofer (which cord? since my understanding is that an RCA cable is the red,white and yellow cable) and get some F...
I took your guys advice and looked up some stuff. Though I dont know what kind of speaker cable I should use for this setup: 2 Connoisseur C-9 Energy 2 C-1 bookshelfs 1 C-C3 centre speaker 2 CR3 surround speakers PB1-ISD SVS subwoofer Denon 3803 receiver Also, where would I buy the...
I plan on getting: 2 Connoisseur C-9 Energy 2 C-3 bookshelf '' 1 C-C3 centre speaker '' 2 CR3 surround speakers '' PB1-ISD SVS subwoofer Denon 3803 receiver Now what kind of speaker cables should I get? (12 gauge or something?) Oh and this may sound dumb, but if I purchased these...
Well I'm looking at purchasing this sound system and heard SVS subwoofers are highly recommended. I'm looking into getting one but am wondering which SVS subwoofer will suit this setup best: -2 Connoisseur C-9 -2 C-3 bookshelf -1 C-C3 centre speaker -2 CR3 surround speakers All are...
well I do live in Canada ;) Though I dont know how to change it so it says where I'm from. Anyways I dont 'need' 7.1 but right now I do have a 5.1 Kenwood HTB-505 system and would like the biggest jump in quality as possible. My room is fairly small as I still live at home (only 17), though I do...
is there different models of the SVS subwoofer (if there is, which one would you recommend)? And do you think I could get it at the same place I would buy my Energy speakers?
My receiver gets pretty warm/hot when I use it for extended amounts of time and I am worried one day I might overheat it (though I do take breaks to cool it down, I'm more worried about my brother forgetting). I keep it in my TV stand which has those glass doors. Anyways, are there any...
Ok, I'm pretty interested in this setup, just wondering how much it would set me back? (now dont think I just have no limit on money, I do have a limit but it can always change since I can always save up for a few more months if needed, of course eventually it would get ridiculous if I have to...
Like energy-speakers.com they have their products, but dont say how much they cost. Is there a website that tells me how much they cost? Or would I have to actually drive to the stores and jot down the prices myself?
what I'm confused about is whats the major differences between the first generation (HLM) and the second generation (HLN) line of Samsung DLP's? Is it worth the extra cost? Secondly, I see 2 types of models for each of the two generations. For example, theres the HLN617W and the HLN6165W. Any...
well I'm considering spending money on a new TV. This will probably be my largest purchase yet (planning on spending around $3000). But I dont really feel like buying another new TV in a few years if 1080p comes out then. Should I just get a Samsung DLP now?
