I put mine on the top self of the TV Stand with triangle shaped elevators ( I took a wedge of wood and painted it black) so that the center channel is below the TV but facing upwards towards the ears. I put rubber stoppers behind the speaker so it doesnt glide backwards. Still sounds awesome...

Thats bogus! I would purse and force the issue for principle. Let us know what path you choose on this and results.

I went with the sony 50". Both seemed to be awsume. I seen them pretty close together and its hard to tell which 1 is actually better. People have mixed feelings between sony and panny. I personally read good things about sony (and panny, but more sony) and sony has never failed me in the...

Hi guys. I just purchased my first HT for my new place and I am extremely excited. I have a question I ordered Ascend Speakers and they come in black (they offer to finish them with another color but at 250$ a speaker).

I was asking the same questions last week and I have went to a friends house that uses HDMI from his DirecTV HD Receiver. I unhooked his HDMI cables and hooked up my Monster Component Cables. The picture was still great however the HDMI took the noticable advantage. Is it worth the money? I...

Most of the stuff on E-Bay = Bad Many of the sellers sell junk and are unauthorized with make most of the warrenties VOID. You do get the occasional good seller on ebay. I know the HK guy selling Re-Furb is legit and is authorized to do so by HK. Do your research before pulling the...

I will post how everything works once I get it up and running. Unfortunately it won't be until july 15. Although I ordered my entire HT theatre I won't finish renovating the place until then. But I ordered everything to make sure I have it when I am ready to install =) (yes ima big...

After reading many reviews and opinion I have decided to go with the pb10. I feel that the 12 will make me lower its feed to half or less than half since I can't have the entire building shacking (eventhough I am on the ground floor). If I am disatisfied I can return it and upgrade to the...

Hi guys. I am looking to purchase a cheap cd changer for my HT. I rarely listen to music but I would like to have that option. What I am looking for is multiple cd changer (3+) that plays CD-R with mp3 format available. I was looking at the Harman Kardon FL 8385 5 Disc CD, but I read some...

I will be mounting my 2 Surround speakers and building a shelf above my TV for my center. The 2 Surrounds will have speaker wire traveling from inside the wall, up to the ceiling and back down the wall where the receiver is closest to. If you do this make sure the speaker wire is for in-wall use...

Do these switches cause any loss of quality? For example will it be a less quality connecting switch to tv rather than directly to the tv? Also, is there any type of quality (video or audio) lost from using a DVI dvd player into a HDMI Plasma (using the DVI-HDMI cable) I am gettin a high...

I am purchasing a Plasam with a HDMI connection. I have hit up many FAQs and have decided to go with the HDMI over the DVI. My question is how many devices can I connect to the HDMI? For example I would like to connect my HD Receiver and my DVD player to the HDMI. Does a "switch" exist for...

Sorry guys I posted this in the wrong forum. Thanx for your replies. I see speaker wire can run up to $100 and didn't want to buy blindly.

Hi guys I am in a big dilema. I finally want to go out and buy a 50" plasma tv. I was looking at the Sony XBR (model # KDE-50XBR950). I found it for a decent price from a local dealer but then I read some people saying that the lower model (KDE-50XS955) has better quality picture. The price...

Thanx for all your help guys. Ive done reading and I think I will shell out the extra cash and get the SVS PB12-ISD.

How about this. What Sub would you recommend me buying with this setup (price can go up to 600-800). Just curious if it will be worth to shell out a little more dough.

Im not 100% sure of the dimension because I won't be moving in there for another month. However it is connected with a half wall to the kitchen so I guess you can say open. It is longer than it is wider. If I had to guess I would say the Width is 15' and the length is long due to it being...
