I was thinking of building a new pc and stumbled into the world of HTPC. This is a list of the componants I am thinking of putting into my HTPC. Graphics Card: ATI ALL-IN-WONDER 9700Pro 102-95701 ALL-IN-WONDER Radeon 9700Pro 128MB 256-bit DDR VIVO AGP 4X/8X Video Card - OEM...

I have Infinity Entra Three for Front L/R and Entra ones for Rear L/R, but I have been using a crappy KLH center from a HTIAB. I was thinking of getting an infinity entra center two from ebay, but I noticed several other infinity centers around the same price. This got me thinking, hey if its...

Anyone in the Eastern MN area looking to buy used copies of nearly all the halos? I'm in Western WI, (Near Somerset, New Richmond to be exact) but can't drive anywhere other than to my school in New Richmond, due to my incarceration at the St. Croix County Jail's work release program. For a...

I wonder how much of a distraction this really was. When I went to school, it was agianst the rules to talk in class, meaning hold a personal conversation; participating in a question / answer forum was ok. After several warnings, it became clear that you were not going to let the teacher...

I swear that recently I have been seeing ads on television regarding the V-Chip, and where you can find information about it online. I will have to keep an eye out for when and where these ads are run and where the information is. I think it was during the NASCAR races a few weekends ago. Maybe...

Nine Inch Nails - The Day the World Went Away

I did just that, but in my defense, I live in a town of pop. 2000 or so. I didn't expect it to happen in the parking lot of the grocery store where I worked, during business hours. Although it was easy to find out who stole the system, tracking it down has been a little more difficult. If the...

Thanks a lot!! The salespeople at Best buy always try to get you to use not only the brand that costs the most, but the model that costs the most, and I think that's B.S. I bought a DVD player there once for about $100 and the salesman told me I needed to buy component video cables that cost the...

I don't know much about the HK FL 8385 and I was wondering about it's performance myself, but I do know that HK has been around for a long time and that their receivers have never let me down. I own an AVR 5, and am planning to upgrade to the AVR 235. It has a ton of features and doesn't cost an...

This isn't a Beatles song, but the "Imagine" cover done by A Perfect Circle is really good. More haunting and dramatic than the original.

I had a system in my car for about 8 mos. because apparently someone thought that it would sound better in their car. :angry: The system cost about $1500 in a car worth only about $1400-2300. Insurance gave me about $1000, even though I had receipts for all of the equipment, as well as the work...

My dvd player can play SACD, DVD-Audio, and regular DVDs. Do the digital outputs handle all the audio? Or do I need to hook up the 5.1 channel outputs for SACDs and/or DVDs? Which digital audio connection has better quality, digital coax or optical digital? Any other info would be...

I can't remember where I read this, but someone wrote a review on the Bose system that said they were watching a movie with it and the movie had a lot of dialog. The dialog was difficult to hear because there is no center channel. The sound coming from the tv speakers sounded better. Also...

I'm getting a 30 inch widescreen with component video inputs, so I'm going to get the psyclone xbox component cables, is it worth getting a digital optical audio cable, the cables have a built in digital optical port?

Not a video cable, but audio cables. It's not just one cable, it's 6 cables, one each for front left right audio, surround left and right, subwoofer and center. It's for sacd or dvd-audio. I don't know if I need it for 5.1 ch surround with my dvds, but the dvd player I want has these outputs...

Thanks! My current tv doesn't have doesn't have component inputs, but neither does the AVR 5. That's why when I upgrade to the AVR 335, I was planning on upgrading my tv as well. I was looking for a widescreen model, possibly the JVC AV30W475, a 30 inch on sale for about $450. I bought an...

I am new to the forum and am just starting to build my HT. I have an HK AVR 5, and want to upgrade to the 335. Also I have 2 Infinity Entra Three towers, 2 Infinity Entra Ones, I am planning to order 1 or 2 Entra Center Twos (when I get my taxes), Possibly another pair of Entra Threes, from...

O.K. I called my "local" brick/mortar store and asked some of these questions. I was told that with the Terk LF-30S and Remote Extender, I should be able to do what I want, I'll just run the component monitor out to my living room tv, the RCA monitor out to the LF-30S, along with the multi-room...

I am new to this forum, and I have some questions about a HT that I am starting to build. I have the HK AVR 5, and am considering upgrading to either the AVR 235 or 335, but I need some more information on dual room / dual zone setup on the AVR 335 before I make my decision. What I would...
