I have the Sanyo PLV Z2 projector and it has a DVI-I input, which I believe will output HD as well as analog. Would I be able to use a DVD player with up conversion on my projector? And if so, would I really see a big difference in video quality? I am currently using a Panasonic DVD player with...

I have the Sanyo PLV Z2 projector and it has a DVI-I input. Would I be able to use a DVD player with up conversion on my projector? And if so, would I really see a big difference in video quality? I am currently using a Panasonic DVD player with component cables. I am going to be buying a DVD...

Thanks for the information. One other question is if the TV is 480p and 1080i...how well will the Xbox look seeing that it is 720 natively? I am looking at the Phillips 30" widescreen and can get it for $389 refurbished direct from Phillips. Thank you

Thank you Dean for the info. Could you tell me a little more about the upkeep that you say there is? I am not familar with the CRT HD sets enough to know. Are they more apt to get burn in than a standard CRT? I hope I used the term CRT right. I am talking about a "tube" type tv like a 26" wide...

We are now thinking about getting a HD CRT TV instead of a LCD because you get alot bigger screen for the money. Will that still give a great picture quality or should we just stick with a LCD but smaller screen? Thank you

Howard and the crew is the best! I had XM and switched because of him and got a radio for my wife too. We have been without Stern for about 18 months in this area and it was amazing to hear them again. I am so glad Sirius was the smart one to strike the deal with Stern! Curt

I think this may be temporary thing. I heard Fox News talk about it before it happend and the two of them could not hash out a contract dispute, probably about money. The same thing happnes with Directv or Dish Network with some channels and they end up resolving it. I hope so, I talked my boss...

I posted this on the Display board and never thought of posting it here. Does anyone have any suggestions for a HD ready LCD under $400 for the 360? I know I probably won't get one bigger than a 17" but it is for my son and he is capped on money and it is for his bedroom. Also where is there a...

Thanks for the info. I think he will have to get a 17 - 20" screen. He is capped out on money. Also, what is B&M's? Thanks for the reply. Curt

My son wants to buy a LCD TV for Xbox 360. He has saved his own money for this and I would like to see him get the best for his money. What would be a good choice? I know is must be HD ready to make the 360 really shine. Where would be a good place to buy. I did see some on Ebay, but unsure of...

I was a XM subscriber for a few years and I have just switched to Sirius. I actually like it more. The DJ's have more life. I do listen to alot of talk type things too. Two reasons I switched is because I am a Stern fan and was willing to switch for him and I also switched because XM brought on...

Sirius has a huge amount of subscriber numbers to make up for the $500 million deal they made for Stern. Frankly, I don't think they will make it. As Joe McCabe has pointed out, you can't expect the majority of the Stern fanbase to migrate to satellite radio just for him...

Please if someone could help with this...I would greatly appreciate it...I am having my first big movie get together this weekend and want it to look it's best. Thanks Curt :)

I have been using my Sanyo for about 9 months or so and have been happy with it. When I first set it up..I had the same problems as most with Vertical Banding. I used some adjustments found here and it worked good, they were for version 1.03 and I have a 1.06 version. The problem is, I took the...

Thanks for the info on the tight playlist for Sirius. I actually don't listen to much music at all on my XM. Like I said...I do listen ALOT to my XM seeing that I drive so much, I listen to mostly talk radio (Dave Ramsey...ect) and alot of the News channels....I know...I know...boring! I am...

If you are a die hard Stern fan...than this is the best news you can hear. He has been censored far to much over the last few years....(even more so after the last Super Bowl). Like him or not you have to admit he is a talent..kinda like Michael Jackson...I don't like him...but he has talent. My...

I don't have a list of movies in 3D yet. I did a search on ebay for 3D movies in the DVD area and came up with alot of them. I found you have to have the right type of glasses to view certain ones. The most common type is anaplyph 3D which uses either red/cyan or red blue glasses. The LCD...

I have the Sanyo Z2 and am projecting on a 104" Carada screen. I would love to watch movies in 3D...such as some Imax 3D films and ect. Does anyone know what are the best type of glasses to get? I don't want the cheap cardboard ones (I have some that came with Shrek). I did find out the LCD...

I would have not have been able to build my HT room if it wasn't for this room, it has been done for a few months now, except to add a curtain around my screen...I am being bitten by the HT bug again. My screen is a 104" Carada and I would like to add a curtain the goes from the top to the floor...

You can buy flat black ceiling tiles. I just bought mine a few months ago and they are no price difference than white. I also got the black grids as well. I had to go to a specialty builders dealer in my area. They worked out great!

I also have the Z2 and I have three rows of seating in my HT. The first at 8' the second at 11' and the last at 14'. I see very little screen door at the 8' row and no SDE at the last two rows. I have a 104" screen. My Z2 is also over my seating area and I only hear a slight noise when there is...

Thanks La Marcus....I actually was going to go with some sort of recliner seating, but I couldn't pass up the deal I got on these seats. They are pretty comfortable..but not as much as what your theater seat are. Your theater looks great as well.

Mike, You are not being a pest at all. I know I asked a TON of questions in this forum and it helped alot. I did a DIY mount that I followed from plans from this forum. It is just some 1/4" plexiglass and 1 1/4" pipe. It cost about $20 to make it I think it turned out good. The other mounts...

Thank you for the kind words everyone. Mike...my throw distance is just a hair over 12', it believe it is 12'3. I did have to do some tweaking to it. I did have some vertical banding, but I found some adjustment settings that I made in the service menu and it took all the vertical banding away...

Yes, the walls are dark ash and the trim is evening hush from Home Depot. The lower part of the walls are a grey color marine carpet with a 1/2" of fiber sound board under that which is over the drywall and it does a great job to eliminate echo, those ideas came from Erik at E-Cinema. Thank...

Looks great! Very nice setup. Like the idea with the center speaker.

Thank you Frank, I found out how to do it through the gallery.

Thank you Parker. I can seat as many as 12 at once. I am sure that won't happen very often though. I don't have any screen shots yet, my camera is awful, I am planning to get a new one very soon. As I said in my original post. I am grateful for the help I recieved in this forum. I never would of...

After close to a year of blood, sweat and tears....literally, our HT room is just about done.We started the room from scratch and worked on it when we had the time and money. The only thing left is some sort of artwork on the walls, and a new audio stand. We will be adding a motorized curtain...
