    QVC "burn in"

    I've just purchased a new TV about 3 months ago. Whenever I turn to either QVS or HSN the white box that has the product info slowly starts to turn blue. The longer I leave it on the "bluer" it gets. When I change the channel the blue remains but slowly fades away after a while. What's going on...

    where to put xbox

    The wireless controllers are great for what you want. The only problem is they're kinda expensive. I think for a good one they are about $45 each

    headphones

    The headphones are going to be mainly used for just watching movies. Comfort is pretty important b/c i'll probably be wearing them for hours at a time. Out of the two though i'm starting to lean towards the Sennheiser hd600s

    refurb equipment

    speaker placement

    I just ordered a 5.1 surround system. I want to mount the speakers on the wall using speaker brackets, but i'm not sure where i should put the speakers. Should I mount them on the front and back wall or in the corners of the room since it is a 9X9 bedroom?

    HTIB for the Bedroom - Please help

    Steve, check out the Yamaha Cinema series. They are about the same size as the BOSE units but about a $1000 cheaper. I just purchased the YHT340 which appears to have pretty small satelites. I'll let you know how it performs when i recieve it next week.

    Hdtv

    I'm interested in upgrading to HDTV since more and more networks are starting to offer a lot more programming. I recently bought a new Phillips TV that is not HD. Is it possible to get HD on my tv using some kind of convertor? What exactly do I need to go to HD and how much should i expect to spend?
