    I just upgraded to the vip 211 receiver from dish network. Almost every time I change channels (90+%), the info section blinks about six times and the format size changes about six times also. The screen goes black with grey side bars and finally, after about four seconds of this flipping...

    Need advice. JVC LCOS or Samsung DLP

    I have one difference for the JVC vs. Samsung. I have a new JVC HD61Z886 (61") and with the HDMI cable used, the TV audio drops out about every three seconds with a loud "pop".

    making inwalls better/more sound proof?

    I am assembling my 6.1 home theater sound system with Klipsch Reference series RCW-5 in wall speakers. Would it benefit the sound and/or help control noise going into the other rooms by making in wall boxes? I plan on using ceiling tile like in office buildings. It is dense and kind of soft...
