sorry for the late reply, no , not yet, i had my plasma done when first bought, and to be honest the pic didnt look any better to me, maybe someone could recommend a vegas expert . just to add the lamp is working great still, movie every night , if anything i would say the pic...

i really appreciate everyones input, thankyou screen re-sized to fit avatar perfectly...wow what a difference in size, was great to watch , and now i don't seem like such a fool to the kids !

thanks jason for your informative info, so i should try to match the height which i saw in avatar, that was the portion that overlapped the top and bottom of the 16;9 i have it sized at. then come up with a creative way to screen off that portion when not needed, as most the movies i...

i re-vamped a spare room and set up the projector ( newbie ), widescreen james bond quantum of solice was used to mark out my screen..... got the screen and room painted etc....excellent the picture was spot on the painted screen watched a couple of movies, feeling good it all worked...

ok i am about 10 days in with the new non branded bulb , and i have to say alls good !. i have a picture of about 106 inches or so, and the apparent 1080i pic produced by this unit is pretty close to what i had seen from my plasma... of course not quite as crisp for want of a better...

being as i got the unit at a steal basically, i went ahead and bought the mentioned one at the link above. heres my thought...   i really want a h/t projection room, i have a great room for it....and ok it may not last long, or be as bright, but it will sure give me an idea of what i could...

are knock offs just not gonna last as long....or is there more to it than that?.....

thankyou   i have the mounting cage, so found a bulb as above for the cage and projector model....philips lamp . appreciate opinions as to if it appears to be original and not a knock off .....

yes i read that.....   does anyone have a link for original bulb/lamp replacement ?...also i tried looking for answer to filter cleaning...but do not see a removable filter....does this model have a filter ?   thanks

thanks, got the control of unit covered, just the bulb cost.....which seems to vary greatly..its still way under half of new unit....and a dip into the projector world...  

thoughts on this projector for h/t use....i picked this up at a sale for ten bucks, no remote/cables/new lamp needed.   2061 hrs on the lamp, got a 10ft wide image on the wall, which after being used to the plasma image i have, i liked the idea of the size, and it looked like a good dvd...

thanks brian....... i have read all that stuff, just annoyed my screen is immaculate and hardly used. shouldve of just used it daily for normal tv, the problem would have showed up , and could have been sorted whislt in warranty. but no doubt would have been back not long after...

i have been reading online about an issue with red speckles appearing on certain plasma tv's..... and am now concerned !... i have had my toshiba 42hp66 plasma for nearly 3 yrs, and only watch movies maybe 6-8hrs a week. it is not used for anything else. i worked out that is about...

thanks john for your simple explanation... looking forward to someday getting a good receiver.

i had posted this in the speakers section, but no reply . have a fixed crossover htib receiver, about 2 yrs old 6.1 . there is no menu setting for speakers large/small either. so assume if selecting yes for subwoofer, all the speakers automatically are assumed small by the receiver ...

i have been looking for info on these vintage 1st series monitor 10's from the 80's as regards to how low they can go ( if thats the right word ), and not yet found this anywere i need to set the crossover on my subwoofer to the point the polks are straining for lows ...anyone know ? my...

thanks agian for the last 3 replies also......i will definately be adding a quiet fan ....

thanks to you both for the piece of mind . i was getting a little anxious ! i will peer in and see how the dust is building up just incase .....

i have had my toshiba 42 inch plasma for around 2 years now..it had been mounted high up on the wall due to kids !... only used about 6hrs a week for movies. i have now bought it down into a large cabinet . i had never thought to feel how much heat it produces when it was on the wall , but...

just wondering as my knowledge on receivers and there capabilities is limited, is this receiver worth the pre owned price of $500. i may have the chance to get it at that price locally looks mint . i need hdmi for both my blu ray and hd dvd , display also ...and clearly want the tru hd/dts...

thanks scott...thats cheered me up even more ....i always thought the sony sounded great, but seems a almost dead compared to the yamaha...

i just picked up a mint condition yamaha yst-sw150 active servo processing subwoofer system ( thats a mouth full ) for $9.00 :laugh: at the local thrift store. currently my receiver and sub ( 120w) is just a sony 6.1 htib model ..i think retailed for $499.00 .... having hooked this yamaha...

well worth the $8.00 .....got a harmony 676 remote on the craiglist for $10.00 like new...programmed and now functions the a1 hdmi thing....watched a few hd's and plays smooth as can be......excellent

sadly not set up for that connection... but tried agian with iso...now on my tenth disc...just keep getting the "notplay" in the a1's display.... but agian ...plays fine via component leads...but seems hdmi needs to be set somewere in the player..as it fails this connection everytime...and i...

i downloaded the correct file for the a1 from tosh site, and used 2 different iso image programs...but still the same... now seems like it dos not want to display video via the hdmi connection either...only get video via r/b/g hook up leads ??.. of course maybe this is why it was only...

deciding to sell off my toshiba xa2...only as i do not have a library of sd dvd, and not much dollar into hd dvds........i stumbled across a toshiba hd-a1 in the local thrift store for $8.00 !.......seems to run fine, and figure i would use it just for the hd movies i own for occasional veiwing...

not sure what you mean ?.......... but surely its a better idea than the dipshits in the tosh marketing area have come up with so far....why not have one last attempt for the sake of all us hd dvd owners
