I have an older Panasonic PT-L500U projector. I just bought a HDMI converter to use with my older game systems. I hooked the converter up to my Samsung LCD and it worked fine. When I hooked it up to my projector it doesn't work. I know the cable and everything else running to my projector is...

I wonder if I should buy the new Oppo player that does 1080p or the older one that does 1080i. I know the older one gets raves, but if I let the TV convert the signal, I might lose the benefits.

It's a 50" Samsung DLP.

I'm getting a 1080p TV. Do I need a DVD player that does 1080p to take advantage of it, or will the TV itself decode a 1080i signal to 1080p? Thanks.

I hope it serves me well. I'm getting tired of losing shipping money.

The problem I see with the Infocus 4805 is its low pixel count.

I think it's impossible, scientifically speaking, to see rainbows with a LCD. My budget is $2000 to $2500. I'm using a Sony S7000 DVD player interlaced into the component input. There really wasn't a whole lot to adjust with the HC3. At least not enough to eliminate the major problems it had. I...

This is the second projector I've tried out. The first was a Mitsubishi xd3000u that I had to return do to rainbow issues. I only had a hour to make up my mind on the HC3 in order to receive a full refund so I didn't mess around with fine tuning it. I had the projector 15' from the wall, and I...

Yes, that's my thread. I started a new one to see if I could get some more action. By the way, I'd like to get floorstanding speakers. I'm tired of stands.

I've raised my limited to $2000.

I thought it might help if I include what types of music I listen to. Electronica like Autechre, Kraftwerk, Coil. Heavy Metal like Metallica. Alternative like The Cure, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan. Old Altenative like Roxy Music, Brian Eno, David Bowie. Straight Rock like The Rolling Stones...

How would you compare the Rocket 750's with the VMPS Ribbon 1 monitors?

What speakers would fall into the really an upgrade category? I've also been looking at Swan, VMPS, and Meadowlark.

Here are a few of the speakers I'm looking at: Epos M15's Swan 6.1 BC A little more pricey: Meadowlark Swift, maybe Kestrel 2 VMPS Ribbon Monitor

These are the speakers I own. Here is my set up: B&K AVR 202 M&K 750 THX Select Speakers Pioneer Elite CLD - 79 Sony DVP-S7000 DVD Player Monster Cable HTS 3500 MSB Gold Link II MSB P-1000 Monarchy DIP Upsampler I know these are highly regarded speakers, but I'm looking for...

What would be a set of speakers that would be considered an upgrade from my 750 THX's. I want something that's obviously good for home theater, but also has more punch with Stereo cd playback. Thanks.

I'm not sure about a 5 channel upgrade. I truly feel like the 750THX setup is hard to match at, or around, its price point, but I might be wrong. I really can't imagine having a better 5.1 speaker set-up unless I spent way more money than I want to, but I do feel like for stereo playback the 2...

I'm looking for some opinions on the best pair of $1000 loudspeakers. I want them to be good for both stereo music and home theater. I'm thinking about replacing my M&K 750thx front speakers. Is this even worthwhile? I've looked at Epos, Norh, and Ellisaudio, but I'm not sure how much of an...

Or should I just stay with the 750's?

I'm thinking about upgrading my M&K 750THX front speakers. I want something that excells at both movies and stereo music. I can buy the following speakers at discounted prices so any opinions would be greaty appeciated. I'll also take any suggestions. Epos M 15 Reference Monitors (pair) -...

I just bought a Mitsubishi xd300u, and I'm pretty sure I'm seeing the rainbow effect in full effect. Do any of you know a good movie, or part of a movie, to watch in order to maximize the problem so that I'm 100% sure? Thanks.

Aren't DLP projectors suppose to be much brighter than LCDs around the same price point?

The Mits price is in the $2200 to $2500 range, about the same as the Z2.

I've narrowed down the front projectors I'm interested to 2; the Mitsubishi XD300U and the Sanyo Z2. Which do you people out in home theater land think is the better choice in a room that is not completely light controlled? The Mits's specs (brightness, contrast, lamp life) destroy the Sanyo...

The room has a 5' by 3' window with blinds and a sliding glass door with sliding drapes. So during the daytime I cannot get the room completely dark. As you know, I've been looking for a Front Projector, but I don't want to spend much over $2000 and am very worried about the ambient light issue...

I'll mostly be watching widescreen movies and playing video games on it. I have about every system from the original NES up to a Gamecube and plan on buying an XBOX eventually. I want something in the 50"-60" range. My system consists of: Sony DVP S7000 DVD player Pioneer CLD-79 Laserdisc...

I'm looking to buy a new widescreen RPTV and was hoping there are some opinions out there on what the betters ones are. There are just too damn many of them out there.

Does anyone have any opinions about the DVDO iScan Ultra? Is it worth buying it over the pro? Thanks.

I've been thinking about buying a Panasonic PT-L300U or a Sanyo z2. How dark of a room do I need to get the most out of one of these? Thanks.

I've been thinking about buying a new TV and since I mostly watch widescreen movie I realized a front projector might be the best thing for me, but I'm a relative newcomer to front projectors. I have noticed they depreciate rapidly, which could be to my advantage. I'm looking to spend less than...
