    ipod/iphone fm transmitter for car

    The best solution I have found is from this company http://www.gromaudio.com . I installed one of their units in my wife's car over a year ago and it has worked great. I never liked the FM transmiters, and went through several of the cassete adapters before I found this. This unit plugs in...

    Transfer 8mm film to DVD recommendations

    Mtry, I have found one local place, but I'm not sure of their quality so I was looking for other options. Biggie, did you have any work done by the person you referred, and if so how were the results? Thanks

    Transfer 8mm film to DVD recommendations

    First let me say that I am not interested in trying to do this myself, I am looking for recommendations for a company to transfer these. I have fourteen reels of 8mm film that we inherited from my late father in-law. The film dates from 1957 to the mid sixties and appears to be in pretty good...

    Pioneer Plasma : Kuro vs Kuro Elite

    It has been over a year since I bought mine (see sig) so I'm sure I don't remember all of the differences. For me the two things I was interested in were the extra year warranty that you are already aware of, and the Elites have a lot more picture adjustments in the user menu without having to...

    I Voted!

    I went at about 10:00 am to vote and only had about a 5 minute wait. I drove by my polling place this morning on the way to work and it looked pretty crowded then.

    User's Manual weird instruction

    If you look at page 53 of the manual I believe the reason for the analog connections is for zones 2 and 3. As far as I know most receivers will not output digital connections to their other zones.

    School Bullies

    Several years ago when my youngest son was in the 8th grade he was a teachers assistant for a class of mentally handicapped kids. It was a good thing, my son really enjoyed it, the kids loved him, and the teacher thought he was great. One day he had "his kids", as he referred to them out on...

    Any motorcycle racing fans out there?

    Chris, The wife and I go to the superbike races at Sears Point (Infenion) every year and always have a great time. I had a chance to go to the GP at Laguna Seca this year, but it was last minute and I had a conflict. I'm with Mazer, I root for Duhamel. I ride a 98 Honda VFR800.

    I need some answers please.

    Jamie, My wife and I pay $100 every two weeks for someone to clean our house. This is for a pretty good size house in a fairly expensive area. It normally takes her 3 - 4 hours and consists of mopping and cleaning the bathrooms and kitchen, vacuum and dust the rest of the house and other...

    Rotel RSX1057, HDMI Question

    You can use optical or coax and get sound, but you won't be able to get the new high quality formats. As I understand it optical or coax doesn't have the bandwidth to pass the new formats, so using one of these will get you the old Dolby Digital or DTS but at a higher bit rate.

    LED Lights behind TV for Ambiance?

    You might want to google "bias lighting". I have not tried this but supposedly by putting the proper "colored" light behind your flat panel it improves your viewing experience.

    Rotel RSX1057, HDMI Question

    Your Rotel will not do audio over HDMI, see my sig. When you decide to upgrade you will need to get a Blu ray player that decodes internally and has 5.1 analog outputs, and then hook it to the 5.1 analog inputs on your Rotel. That is how I have my HD DVD player setup.

    JVC RX-6018VBK displays DSP MICON NG and no sound

    According to page 28 of your owners manual that display means "The built in microcomputer is not functioning correctly" does not sound like good news. The manual says to turn off the unit and contact your dealer. I would try unplugging the unit completely, let it set for a few minutes and...

    12v trigger workaround

    I'm sure someone will chime in with a better explanation, but in the meantime I'll take a shot. The "wall wart" refers to the small transformers that you plug into your 110v plug and they convert to different DC voltages, they are very common for powering small electronic devices. So you...

    Marantz SR7001 (I have had it!)

    I'm not sure if I am remembering correctly, but I wonder if this is related to the switch to non lead containing solder for environmental reasons. I think I remember someone here (TLSguy ?) talking about this. Either way it still doesn't help your situation.
