    PS3's now meeting demand

    I love the 360 online gaming, but... If the PS3 online gaming system was just as good, I would go with that. 360 is more expensive. I can't even play Pacman without having to purchase points from them. That's after I just bought the online gold package. Then when I bought Call of Duty 2, It...

    Newbie, Which Fronts for ~$400? Appreciate help!

    If space is a problem, Vanns has the Sony SAVF700ED for $299 no tax and free shipping. There is a 5 yr warranty. I bought 2 sets so far. It's the perfect gift for someone who doesn't have a lot of room. They dont make them anymore. Circuity City has infinitys on sale for a good price - most of...

    Add car subwoofers to Home theater

    I have a couple 15" Rockford’s that I use as my low base. They work great, but I only used them because I had an extra amp that could run them. I couldn't imagine setting up a Hi Phonics Zeus amp and converter in my home and being happy about it. I also had to build the boxes for lower...

    Car audio sub for the house need help

    You need to have your "subwoofer out" on your amp go to another amp that can handle 4ohm loads. Use your cheapy amp for your satellites and… (This is a long shot) your 4-8ohm amp for your sub. Yeah, use a multi ohm home amp and see what bull wattage rating your speakers really are! I can put 120...

    Quality of video from DVDs

    Samsung hd841 up converts to 480p 720p 768p or 1080i in both analog and digital. It served me well until HD DVD finally came out. I think it's about $50 on ebay from a guy called Samsungstore. I don't know if he's still there though. It's digital out is DVI. I've always used a separate line for...

    Component Video Cables

    A main concern may be length. At short lengths, even very cheap cables will do. The more expensive cables are hand soldered all the way around at the ends. Not just a dab connected by a machine. At about 3 meters information can start breaking up. It's just a coax cable really. The better it's...

    Sony SAVF700ED

    I wrote this review only because there isn't ANY out there now. (I had some extra time at work as well) These have been around for a while too. That's why they are going for so cheep I guess. Now if somebody googles them, they will get some info at least. They Really should show a side angle...

    DIY screen vs. professional screen (projector central article):

    use a light out fabric from some place like Joanns fabric with a 40% coupon. it's 54in by whatever you want. Put the top and botton frame on. Paint it with interior latex satin enamel White. You can mix in 25% white pearl essence (it just boosts light refraction by about 10%) you dont have to...

    Sony SAVF700ED

    My influence was my wife not wanting large speakers in the room. I have tons of base ( i made them myself) and several amps. i try to disguise the base units as pieces of furniture. My favorite amp is a jvc from the late 70's. I can connect anything to it and not have to worry about burning it...

    Sony SAVF700ED

    Does anybody have a pair of these speakers in America? I bought a set from Vanns just to see what they sound like. I wont get them for 8 days. There are no reviews anywhere. They look great and make a very small footprint. Their Sava700 was nice years back. Maybe this is a compact version of it.
