    V333ES.... Looking to upgrade

    Cool deal. After a few hours of researching and reading reviews, I think the SR7002 is going to be the avr of choice. Now, is this a current year receiver or is this last years model? Reason I'm asking, is because I don't want to be ready to buy it and it not exist anymore. Is there anyplace...

    V333ES.... Looking to upgrade

    Cool deal. My local dealer just emailed me back and gave me the MSRP price. Doesn't look like I'll be getting it from them. Didn't seem too friendly, just emailed me with the price and nothing more/less. I'm really leaning toward the Marantz. Now, I haven't read too deeply into the sepcs, but...

    V333ES.... Looking to upgrade

    I am driving Polk R150 Fronts and Rears and a Polk CSR Center. I was looking at the Marantz SR7002, and am liking it alot. I just contacted a local dealer by e-mail to see what kind of price they can get it to me, but I also noticed that 6ave has it. I've liked Marantz equipment in the past...

    V333ES.... Looking to upgrade

    Hello all. I am currently the very happy owner of a Sony V333ES AVR. I absoloutly love this thing to death. The sound quality is so amazing on this thing, I almost do not want to get rid of it. The reason I do want to upgrade, is because I have a Zektor 4.1 Component Video/Digital Audio switch...

Just today, (first time everything has been on in a couple of days) I am getting what seems to be interference...

    Building a HTPC, but a few concerns....

    Well I'm not going to upgrade to Vista. I've used it and hate it already. Also, the video card and mobo/processor are the ones from my gaming rig that i am upgrading. The rig is getting the new shit while the HTPC get's the hand me downs. The stuff that it is getting though, isn't all that bad...

    Building a HTPC, but a few concerns....

    What do you mean the resolutions supported by my TV? If you mean HD signals then it's 480p, 720p, 1080i. The video in the laptop is a GeForce 7900GS with 256MB DDR. No I haven't tried using the Cleartype option, but I thought that was only for windows desktop and not for apps...

    Component Video Switcher

    Hey guys. I'm looking for a component video switcher. I currently have the Zektor 4.1 (or whatever it is with the 4in 1out). I went to their site the other day, and they don't seem to have anything other than that model and HDMI switchers. I'm looking for a switcher that has more than 4-in. I'm...

    Good component switcher

    Well, I buckeled down and got the Zektor HDS4.1 It will do what I need for now. I just wish that they would make stuff that actually works for what they say.

    Good component switcher

    Well, there goes the second switcher. I bought the newer Joytech that has the component in on it. It worked fine with my PS2 and XBOX, but with my DVD player it still does the dropout thing when I have it hooked up with component. That is so wierd. Do DVD players just put out a higher signal...

    PS2 through component

    Yes. I set those settings first thing. And even with the PS2 in 16:9, the image still doesn't take the whole screen. It's short on the left and right by a little bit.

    Good component switcher

    Nah. I was using Composite and Component, but since I have an HDTV, why use composite? I just need something that will pass HD signals without degrading them drastically. I think i'm going to order the inday component switcher and digital audio switcher. I just don't want to buy a new reciever...

    Good component switcher

    Nah. I currently own a Sony V333ES. It does everything that I need it to and I don't really want to get rid of it. I would want to control the component switcher manually. I just feel a lil better about it. And the switcher I bought was a Pelican, but the quality of the signal was dirt...

    Good component switcher

    I am in the market for a component switcher. I bought one from BB and to my luck, it was crap. Only one of the component inputs worked on it, and the other 2 were shot from the get go. I returned it and tried one that was more natured towards game consoles and dvd players, and that one brought...
