    HELP... I'm moving into an APARTMENT and need advice on a HT setup!!

    Marco, I also have my home theater set up in an apartment and there are a few things that you should consider when choosing front projector as a display type. While they are great for dedicated theater rooms you may have problems when your theater also doubles as a living space. The main...

    I am toying with the idea of upgrading my 27 inch superflat Pan for am RPTV in the area of 43-46 inches. I am just not getting the "theatre" experiance from the pan. I want 16:9 and HD. I saw a sony 46 that was 1600. What else would you guys recommend or recommend against?

    Best $3000 RPTV

    I think that you should still get the Samsung DLP. The 50 inch lists for 2999. Check it out.: http://www.hypeaudio.com/hlm507w.html I also love the DLP, get what you like so you dont want to upgrade. Were you looking for a bigger screen?

    Opinions on my new system

    Well I am of the younger generation and will ignore the insinuation that I liked sloppy sound because of the dearth of my years. More to the point I bought my bose speakers before college and I thought they were great, and like you said when my friends, or girls that I brought back to my room...

    Bookself Speakers for 800-1K

    I decided to stay off this thread until the political debate cooled. Actually I buy a lot of things from Internet companies but I am wary of buying speakers. I want to at least listen to them once before I buy them, especially since this is the first step in a complete overhaul and I will need...

    Bookself Speakers for 800-1K

    Does anyone have an opinion about the Dynaudio Contour, like the 1.3SE and the Special 25. Are they worth the money, I have only heard the confidence line, and while I was blown away those are nowhere within my reach right now. Did anyone audition the countours when looking at B&W 800s?

    Bookself Speakers for 800-1K

    Arron, Yes It looks like there is an $800 difference bwtn the 805 and the CDM's. Since I also will need a center within 3 months of buying the mains, I have a def tech now but I will want to match them as soon as economically possible, the 805s are really of out my reach, as the HTM1 is 2000...

    Buying Paradigm in Canada

    Do any of you know how much I can realistically save if I go to Canada to buy Paradigms? Specifically I am looking at Studio Ref 20's (which I think list at 800USD). Are they more open to bargaining up there and/or do they just have lower prices?

    Advise of Upgrading Existing HT

    thank you all for your feedback. It is not easy to get my feedback from friends as I am the only one with the HT bug, and my GF is not into HT at all. I know that my front should match my center and I will make that happen as soon as possible. I took a look at those rockets online and they look...

    Advise of Upgrading Existing HT

    I just signed onto this forum a few days ago and I have to say I am addicted. I am looking for some general advise about how to upgrade my existing home theatre, which I built piece by piece in high school, college and grad school. My current system (and I use the word system loosely) is as...
