i'm actually lookin to skip the 3d on this tv, because gaming in 3d isn't that great imho(kinda makes ya dizzy). and it won't be used for movies. I'm sittin on the 3d untill there becomes a uniformity to it. The 3d will then be on the TV that replaces the 60inch grand wega DLP 1080p in my...

its been a while since i've been around these parts of the world.... but hey hows things? anyways to the point... I'm looking for a 40inch LED LCD HDTV (lots o letters there) for my alternate game room. i'm really liking the Sony Bravia 40EX700. anyone have any ideas as to a better tv...

ok i have a question... i have a pioneer elite 81txv receiver. It has a MCACC feature that allows it to auto calibrate my speakers(lvls, distance, etc..) anyway i had it run its course (multi sitting position version). and it dropped all of my speaker lvls down by about 4 - 7 decibels. now to...

ok i was wondering if it is possible to bi-amp my mains for 2ch stereo listening and not lose my 7.1. my mains are polk audio rm50t's, and my reciever is a pioneer elite 81txv. so i want them bi-amp'ed when listenin in 2ch mode, and not bi-amp'ed when watching a movie, unless the bi-amp'ing...

Ok so this is where i get confused, i havea pioneer 81txv, and a PS3 for my blu-ray, and supposedly the ps3 was updated recently to decode DTS HDMA and TRUE HD, and i thought sweet! so i put in I,Robot, and loaded the DTS HD 5.1 track and there was a definite audio track change (i mean sound cut...

Gregg, not to sound rude, or like an idiot, but i have no idea what you response meant.. but then again the brain isn't firin on all cylinders due to just gettin off of a 14 hour shift.. either way i have decided to run with the SVS because they push good sounds (from what i catch on the...

ok i think after putzin around on this site... i had narrowed my selection of speakers down to HTD, ONIX, and SVS. then cause my wife has a say on this sitaution as well.. we went with pleasant appearance as well. so after all said and done we decided on the SVS 7.1 system with the PB 12 NDS. is...

ok so after reading more into the the speakers and such, and i found Luis Gabriel Gerenas review. i hav decided to go with the Onix X series, for my 7.1. Now my question is this does anyone know how the x-sub sounds? and Are the X-sls really worth the $100 increase per set? so an xtra $300...

i actually determined the issue about a month ago and forgot to post it so here it is... as it would turn out the auto mcacc on my receiver was calibrating the distance on my speakers all way wrong due to some funky angles in my theater (old house, odd wall lay out).. so once i defaulted the...

After reading through the 7-8 page post on the PA speakers where 2 or 3 dudes were all like what the crap are you waiting for buy them immeidiately or we're coming for ur first born, i was all set to buy them, i looked 'em and they looked great, but then i read further and found that the sub is...

ok so heres the deal, i harassed u guys before about the tv (Sony 60a2000) and my reciever( Pioneer Elite 81TXV). and by harassed i mean i kept asking which ones i should buy and y. i listed in the parenthesis which ones i bought. anyway back to the point, im running boston acoustic 8000 series...

pioneer 81txv receiver, Boston Acoustic 8000 5.1 speakers, and the room is octagon, each wall being roughly 7ft long. ~ELSock~

is it possible for speakers to be too small? i mean could speakers be too weak to handle an a/v receiver? i posted about my speakers sounding like they are trying to blow up... but if they were too "small", wouldn't turning down the volume fix the distortion issue? because it doesn't. so i'm...

all my speakers are set to small..

ok i have a pioneer vsx-81txv receiver and a set of Boston Acoustic 8000 5.1 speakers (sub included) and there is a certain frequency it seems that my receiver keeps trying to put through the speakers and not the woofer. (atleat thats what it sounds like to me) but in certain games and movies...

heres my rig finally sorry for the crap cell phone quality.

yeah i think i was a little bit of a dufus when posting the original post. i have a set of boston acoustic 8000, a quick reference for them...

i'm quite positive that i've blown my speakers in the front due to my receiver being far more powerful than my speakers are... in other words... i'm a dumbass and turned it up to loud. so i have an 8000 series of boston acoustic i'm looking for a good set that will be safe with a pioneer...

none... just me and my girl. we play... well i do and she does sometimes.

ok i'm hearing there will be differences between hdmi 1.2 and 1.3, such as the receivers with 1.3 will be able to decode the blu-ray and hd audio. however i've also heard that receivers with 1.2 will be fine anyway because the players decode all the audio anyway... is this true? finally...

i'm runnin an older set of boston acoustic 8000 series. ps. the sony str-dg1000 got hosed from the dealer(dynaco waited a week to tell me outta stock) so the receiver is the Pioneer Elite 81txv. (it kicks some A$$)

ok as i stated already the connections, and options weren't changed on the audio at all... however when i changed the video from s-video to hdmi, the sound started working fine... so as to eliminate the "i'm an idiot" option, i should also make sure to add now, that when the svideo was hooked...

ok i posted a few days ago that i was all done with my theater now, well i was... untill DYNACO (don't buy from them) kinda hosed me. i ordered my receiver friday at 9am. i got an email tuesday afternoon, that said we're sorry but that item is on back order. I called yesterday afternoon and...

ok i should have clarified, while the s-video cable (i bought separately ) was in use, i had an optic cable set up for surround, and activated through the ps3 settings. and thus was getting no surround from certain games still anyway. however now that i have the hdmi running video and the same...

ok i had an issue before with the sound coming out of my ps3 not being decoded properly by my receiver via the optic connection. instead of 5.1 i was only getting left right and sub, and to top it off half the sound wasn't there at all (ie. the sound effects weren't there from the game, all i...

ok i'm under the impression that the HD-a2 upscales regular dvd's. do i need to turn some option on for this or does it do it automatically? thx FINALLY IN HD LAND... ~ELSock~
