Hi all. I have a 4805 for almost a year now. I love it. No problems so far and quite a good projector for the price. I watch movies and play Xbox video games. I have NEVER noticed any color problems or discrepancies from true colors UNTIL I began playing GTA:San Andreas. (I know...I...

Is the Infocus X2 a 480p? (like the 4805?

Hi there. I need some tech geeks on here to help me explain some thing about this projector. I would appreciate some LINKS to further explain the answer to my question. QUESTION: The 4805 is NOT an HD projector right? wrong? I am guessing (with my limited knowledge) it is not. NOT for...

Okay, I will try to explain this as well as possible. Those of you that know might find it easy to know what this is and if there is a solution. I have a Infocus 4805 and a Dalite screen. When there is a snow scene (like Hoth from ESB) or a water scene (Finding Nemo), I will get a...

Okay, I have a Yammy 5760 with YPAO (auto calibration) I used this ... and it sounds fine, but... I have know idea if it can sound better. I have AVIA but have NOT A CLUE on how to us a sound meter. I know most everyone on here suggests a simple Radio Shack brand (which model?), but I...

Is there any way besides reducing image size/moving further back to reduce the SDE. I am 13 ft back on a screen that is 6 feet wide. I see SDE in Nemo's eye, in Hoth (Empire SB), any lighter scenes...real annoying. BTW...I have the Infocus 4805.

Is there a length one should not exceed when using DVI? Is 20 feet too long (signal loss, loss of quality, etc...)?

I just recently put together my first HT system. I have a JBL 250 subwoofer. Last nite...while still testing out/tweaking system, I was scanning through the DVD menues in several DVDs. Every so often, there would be an audible "POP" from the sub. Not real loud...but alarming... What is it...

I have 4 JBL E20s. I understand they are bookshelf speakers. 3 of them sit nicely on bookshelves. BUT the left rear needs to be on a stand. Obviously there are not mounting pieces on the speaker. How would I go about FINDING a stand for this and MOUNTING this specific speaker? Thanks

what are common/popular ways to hide speaker cables as they are strung around the room? - I can't go through the ceiling. I am planning to go around the baseboard and tuck it in as much as possible BUT... The BlueJeansCable Belden is SO big, I really have to push to get it under the...

I need an M1 to DVI-D cable. If BJC has this, then either its not listed or called something else. This will be for my 4805 pj to my 1910 Denon.

I have a 4805 pj and Denon 1910. I also have an older RCA DVD player. I would like to compare old dvd player to new Denon. I just want to convince myself the Denon was a good buy. What are some movies AND scenes to use to compare? I of course will use Avia to calibrate everything...the...

Which is less "techy" and user friendly? DVE or Avia? I am assuming they will accomplish the same thing. Probably everyone has their favorite but the end result (I am guessing) will be the same. Is one easier to grasp - step by step What I really need is DVE for Dummies...anyone have...

What arethese cables used for? I must be extremely ignorant! When would you use this? I have surround 5.1 and have a bare speaker wire from my speakers to bare speaker wire connector of my receiver. These have RCA interconnects. Am I missing something?

Math questions for ya. I don't mind doing the math myself if someone wants to tell me how. How high can my 4805 sit (on a stand...not ceiling mounted with inverted view) with a ceiling that is 7'10"? I cannot ceiling mount this so I have to figure out how high I sit the proj behind the...

I need any pics, advice, designs, or websites to research a cornice box for my screen when it is rolled up. This is my first HT and I need a little direction as to where to look. If I had some pics to go off of, I could use them to show my carpentar what I need. Obviously using the...

Hi there. I am ordering my cables for my new SP 4805. I want to use DVI. Now, I know my projector is not a HD projector. I believe for DVI it transfers at 480p (please correct me if I am wrong). Do I want DVI-D, DVI-A, or DVI-I ???? I will be connecting it to my Denon 1910 which has...

Okay. I am more confused the more I read. I need answers from people who KNOW about HT WELL!! I have ordered all the "stuff" for my first HT. The only thing left is the wires and interconnects. I have read all about "how to" set up the HT. I have read all the threads about my specific HT...

Is this the same thing? I have read as much definitions and searched as much as I could. I am doing my best to understand what "upscaling" means. Could anyone give me a well thought out and SIMPLE definition for these terms? This combined with an EXAMPLE would really help. I think I might be...

Okay, if any of you have been following my posts lately you can gather I am not a veteran in the world of HT. I NEED ADVICE!! I am hours away from purchasing 4 JBL E20s (front and rear) , EC35, and E250 sub. NOW I see some posts mentioning certain positioning problems for the E20s. I...

I have read some negative comments on here about JBL's E250P. What are the downsides to this subwoofer? No, its not going to knock the walls down, but my room is 15X15 and its in a CONDO. I don't want to make enemies with my neighbors. Is there another subwoofer in that price range that I...

***Edit*** Title should read "B&H for my speakers" Sorry Okay, in the next two days I'll be buying my JBL E series from B&H. Any other suggestions as to where to buy? They seem like the best place and with free Ship/Hand. Just want to make sure before I through down a grip load of cash...

For those that have these as front speaker (or just those who might know) - I remember reading that these should be laid on their side as opposed to on its bottom. Is this true, and why. Please use small words and as non techy jargon as you can. I am an idiot. Thanks

Hi guys. Like everyone, I want to buy the best receiver for the cheapest price. Where can I get the Yamaha HTR-5760 for the best price. Now, I believe I have read a few posts discouraging buying from the cheapest place...why? Are they not under warranty. Does it void the Yamaha warranty? I...

Okay, a couple years ago, I was real close to picking up some Energy speakers. Then the JBL northridge system was the new "in thing" to have. (at the low end for BIG audiophiles I know) Well, I am now in a position (and house) to finally get a good receiver and speakers. Are the Northridge...
