    Desperate plea for help!

    I have an older ('95?) 35" Mitsubishi television. Pretty good little unit for the price. But I really need some help on a problem I'm having with it! And now I need some help with the problem that I've created by trying to fix it! For starters, I run S-Video from all of my sources (Sat, DVD...

    Why are we supposed to buy DLP and LCD TVs instead of CRT ones?!!!

    James - the horizontal viewing angle for the LCD and DLP RPTVs will be much better than standard RPTVs. However, the vertical viewing angle remains terrible - not a big deal when it's in your home properly mounted. If you're walking through one of the big box stores, the sets are typically...

    Simplifying AV switching....

    Bob (and everyone) that does help alot - I feel the fool for not taking into account what they'd use as their tuner, what with the lack of a cable or dish box. I think they're used to using the VCR as a tuner, but this does eliminate the need to switch channels whenever my mother wants to record...

    Simplifying AV switching....

    Hey guys – setting up my parents system, and had a few questions. They have cable, no cable box required, and they use a VCR. I had initially wanted to coax into the VCR, s-video out, but the VCR doesn’t have the s-video connections. It seems that if I want to use the Kenwood receiver to do...

    zenith c32v36?

    Hi Bill, I've read all of the reviews on that model, the C32v23, but is the C32v37 any different? I will tell you this much - the aesthetic differences between the two are night and day. The case of the V37 looks so much nicer! I've only seen the V37 at bestbuy, so obviously the staff has...

    Gregg, never heard it said any better! which is one of the reasons I am still considering the Zenith C32V37 as a temporary solution, perhaps until I eventually buy a house that will better accomodate a true home theater. I've heard previous complaints about progressive scan DVD player input...

    Dwight, How did you get such a great deal on the XBR910? At that price, I would very carefully consider that set. The lowest price I've found for the 510 is $1800 out the door, so the 910 at a hair more sounds fantastic.

    Toshiba 34HF83 + Samsung DVD-HD93 = a good setup?

    I'd also love to hear from anyone who has used the Toshiba 34", as it's on my short list ($1799 at goodguys.com 10% off, no sales tax anywhere, and "white glove" delivery). $1620ish out the door seems like a great price for this set, but is it a good value, dollar for dollar, compared to the...

    Rich, I seem to recall that you are a plasma guy - a little out of my price range, and to tell you the truth, above and beyond my own abilities to distinguish that level of picture quality. I may still be interested in the Sony 34", but do you think a layman will appreciate the difference...

    Hi guys, been a long time. I've been shopping around to replace my 36" Mitsubishi direct view, which has started to give me double images before it warms up. It's served me well, but it's obviously time to consider stepping up into the HDTV market. So far, I've seen several TVs that have...
