Hi all, newbie here finishing out my basement as a home theater and I am thinking of going with the Pioneer Elite 7.2-Ch. receiver, model VSXLX302. It is on sale right now from Bestbuy for 399. Is that a good model to go with? I will be running a home cinema projector and not sure on speakers yet.

I recognize this is probably a bit different from the type of system discussed here but I'm hoping somebody might be able to provide some assistance. I've spent the past few months putting together a backyard movie theater system to replace my old one that wasn't loud enough for everybody to...

Quick background.

I would like to make my room the best...

Bought the above receiver. Worked well. Now, if it goes on, it soon turns off and there is a red light. More often, it will cycle on, then off. Have looked online and tried all suggestions - all to no avail. Still under warranty. I just chatted with Denon rep, and she gave me a list...

Am getting close to purchasing gear for my room and so far my concrete decisions for my 10x18x9 ft room are an SVS PB2000 and Oppo 103d. I have narrowed down amp/processing to a Denon AVR-4520ci or eMotiva UMC-200 with XPA power. I am looking for clean power, plenty of headroom, and ample room...

I want to purchase new speaker/home theater setup (including surround sound, tv, blu-ray player, etc.) for my living room, and I'm going to do it through the local electronics store in my town because I prefer to talk to people and get personal help.

I'm using an analog connection, to my HTR 5960. I'm playing 2-channel audio. How do I make the receiver re-direct low frequency signal to my subwoofer? Thanks.

I have attached a drawing of my AV/Living Room, and I was wondering if anyone has some simple suggestions for making the acoustical characteristics any better. I suppose the only thing I have in my room that might adjust acoustics a bit would be the carpeting, furniture, and a heavy curtain in...

Hi everyone, So I'm delving into the plasma world (excited) and also to the large screen format (upgrading from a wee 32" Bravia) and I wanted to hear some expert feedback from those with experience on if the 60VT model is worth the upwards of 3 grand in the next two weeks when panny has...

Just recently had to part with my 4:3 Toshiba 32" CZ32V51...I loved that set. This is for the upstairs sitting room and not a dedicated HT set. Not terribly upset since I want a 16:9. Room dimensions are approx. 15x14 and two windows are directly facing the screen but have treatments to block...

My Quartet10 kit had been sitting in boxes, antagonizing me, for a couple months now. I finally got around to building the box and getting it all setup. I have to say, I'm not impressed and I want to know if I got a bad kit and how to diagnose my issue. I based my build off of Mike P's build...

There seems to be a function of this unit to adjust the audio/video time delay. This apparently is to sync the sound track with the picture. Is this for real? I never heard of such an option. Is it common for the sound track to be "off" from the broadcast signal? I have never known this to be...

I have decided to do a DIY screen - more than likely a grey screen - and I was hoping to get a little direction. You guys have provided more than enough direction on how to paint the screen and choose a color, so I plan to read through a bunch of those threads. Where I am stuck and cannot seem...
