    Sony speaker cable connectors?

    I just recently setup my new Sony Soundbar system and I'm not quite sure how, but one of the six speaker cables has become pinched/kinked. The soundbar and sub are working just fine now, but I'm concerned that the sound to the far left speaker will cut out in the future due to the kink. I've...

    Soundbar Question

    Hello, First, I want to thank everyone who has helped me out. I appreciate the feedback. I had bought an all-in-one Philips Blu-ray 5.1 Home Theater System, but was experiencing some horrible lip syncing issues. After looking through the manual, posting on here, and contacting...

    Sound delay from Philips home theater system

    Thanks a lot for your response. Unfortunately, this is the answer I was afraid of. I'm in shock discovering that this system has no "audio sync" feature. I've looked everywhere for one and there is none to be found. It's amazing too, because even my Philips DVD home theater had an audio sync...

    Sound delay from Philips home theater system

    I just got my 42' LG LCD setup with a Philips Blu-ray home theater system (HTS3251B/F7), and I'm having an issue with sound delay. From what I hear, it can be a common occurrence. The sound is playing about half a second before the video and is causing some extremely noticeable lip sync issues...

    What does bias lighting do?

    I was at IKEA (furniture store) the other day, and noticed that most of their LCD TV displays had LED light strips behind them, throwing light onto the walls. At first, I thought this was purely for aesthetic display reasons, but then I saw a few people discussing "bias" lighting on a forum and...

    Frame rate slowdown on Blu-ray player?

    I just got my first (beginner) home theater set up. After watching a few movies, I can't believe how much the system enhances the movie viewing experience. I ended up buying a 42" LG LCD and a Philips Blu-Ray Home Theater System. In my opinion, the sound and picture are very high quality. In the...

    Simple Surround Sound Question

    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I figured I would go ahead and ask instead of screwing something up. I just connected a Blu-Ray Home Theater system to my new 42" television. Everything looks and sounds great; however, I've noticed that since I have the Blu-Ray player/receiver...

    Can I connect a Blu-Ray player to my DVD home theater system?

    Thanks a lot for your reply. I did forget to give a model number. Amazingly, the system you found is actually the system I own. Can you elaborate on placing the Blu-Ray player in a "legacy" mode? I took a look at the receiver and I can select "Coaxial" or "Optical" as a source for the sound...

    Can I connect a Blu-Ray player to my DVD home theater system?

    A while back, I purchased a very decent Philips DVD Home Theater system. I'm not looking for anything too upscale, just something to give some nice sound while watching movies. I've really enjoyed it so far and I'm surprised at how much it has enhanced our movie viewing experience. However...
