    New HT Construction

    I don't post here much, I just read, learn and plan for the future as I slowly build my own HT. I do have to post on this one though... Let me just say that your HT is an inspiration to myself (and others I'm sure) as to what is possible and what a "real" HT really is! Many, many, many...

    Need some non-dipole rears to work with my current setup

    Please see my system in my signature below. I, like others here, have moved into a new condo where my dipole rear speakers will not work. I am curious as to what the BEST, smallest surround speakers to compliment my system would be? Thanks so much for the help!

    Seeing Seinfeld live. . . what to wear?

    I saw Seinfeld live when he came to Flint, Michigan in mid-December. When we went people were pretty dressed up. Most men (including me) were wearing dress slacks and a collared shirt. BTW: It was the SINGLE FUNNIEST thing I have EVER heard in my life (on video, in person, tv, nothing has...

    Yamaha RX-V1400 or Dennon AVR-2803

    I REALLY LOVE my VR920 center! Basically when I bought the system, my salesman said that your center is the most important speaker in your set. So I opted for the best I could get my hands on at the time, and I have not regretted the decision since. I have had it for two years now and it...

    Yamaha RX-V1400 or Dennon AVR-2803

    Yeah, me neither. I used to live near a Hi-Fi Buys (which is a subsidiary of Tweeter), but now I live 775 miles from one! I can hear a Dennon, but that's it. I heard my friend's Yamaha this weekend, he's got a lower $300-400 model. His imaging is better than my Kenwood 5.1 (older model). So...

    Yamaha RX-V1400 or Dennon AVR-2803

    Which one? So far I'm leaning toward the Yamaha RX-V1400, what do you think? I really like the YPAO feature of the Yamaha, yet I like the features of the Dennon as well. Hmmmm... I can get the Yamaha for $602 shipped and the Dennon for $594 shipped. So far I've read 2 short customer...

    Quick positioning question from a newbie!

    What are some quick speaker positioning guidelines that work across the board? Like center channel height, surround height, front main position, front mains against the wall, out from the wall (how far), pointing to a sweet spot, etc. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! My setup...

    Best rear-center for 6.1 to go with my current setup???

    See my current setup below in my signature. I am currently in the process of upgrading my receiver to Yamaha's RX-V1400, which is 6.1. I want something that will match perfectly with what I have currently. If you are unfamiliar with my rears, they're sort-of strange....they stand out...

    My friend is trying to talk me into this receiver, what do you think?

    Wow, I might be able to swing that! Depends on how long of a wait that would be, I am VERY impatient! I have been researching Yamaha's line and I've found two that I like a lot: First is the Yamaha RX-V740, cheapest I've found this is $425. I really like the features of this model, they...

    My friend is trying to talk me into this receiver, what do you think?

    It's a Yamaha RXV730 Dolby Digital 6.1 w/75 watts per channel. Now he's got one that is similar and I heard it, the imaging is incredible!!! Much better than my old piece of junk Kenwood 5.1. What I want is a good 6.1 receiver for $600 or under. The one above is only $400, but I think it's...

    Do I need progressive scan?

    I have the following tv, Panasonic 53" Widescreen PT-53WX53. Now, I have an older Sony DVP-S360 DVD player. It has component outs but is NOT progressive scan. I am currently using it's component outs with some very nice quality component cables. What I'm wondering is whether or not I...
