    Vudu

    Vudu is known for having the most 1080p and 3D content. I use them for the 3D stuff an delivery is flawless on my 82" Mitsu DLP thru Samsung BD.

    Audio Power Cables / Cords - Do they really make a difference?

    I have some Chinese made cables and they are fun and decorative .... kind of a cable management thing and they make the back of my rack look a little neater. I didn't really expect them to improve anything tho.

    HELP - No Sound - Home Theater with cable box, PS3, Wii, XBOX 360

    Sounds as if you had it working prior to the cable management. Try turning the TV speakers to OFF in the TV menu (not just turning the volume all the way down). HDMI can do some strange things as components interact and if the receiver is sensing the TV speakers areON then it may defer the sound...

    Panasonic 2d to 3d conversion with Viera TV's

    A friend of mine just purchased one of these and this was the first I had heard of this technology. Does anybody here have one? Does it work well or is it just a gimmick? Panasonic states it is "slightly less effective" in producing a 3d image than with a 3d source, but it claims to work...

    Yamaha RX A2020 HELP NEEDED

    RX-A2010 owner here as well ...no wifi. I have mine hooked up directly to my internet service via a cat5 cable. I also use a switch as my TV, DVD player, and cable box all share the same feed.

    $&#^$&%(* AT&T U-Verse!

    Which unit did you get? I have recently had the U-Verse installed and the Motorola box they gave me runs like it is on fire. I gave it its own little space so it doesn't burn up the rest of my equipment.

    bi-amping tower speakers

    As stated, either / or. If your speakers are pulled away from the wall and the backs exposed like mine, I would say do whatever LOOKS the best :D . All home-made ... a bit of a fun project or you can simply buy some if you like. You can find some pretty nifty sets for as little as 15 bucks and...

    Martin Logan Sale at AA

    I think it's been going on for a while now ... it was in their latest catalog. I picked up their demo of the Matinee center channel for 650 and now use it as the rear center channel in my 6.2 setup.

    Yamaha DSP 3090

    ... not if you want HDMI inputs and outputs. FYI I just GAVE AWAY a Sony ES receiver of a similar vintage just because it did not support any of the new connections and it would have basically become a doorstop in my basement. At 80 WPC for the fronts and 25 WPC for the rear, I am thinking you...

    Order of components in enclosed rack

    My U-Verse box from ATT is brand new and gets SMOKIN HOT. It has it's own little space off to the side because of that ... and the fact it is an oddball size and looks like ish. I run a rack mount fan just above both my receiver and my amp ... both Middle Atlantic products that draw air from...

    9.1 vs. 7.1

    Once again, if you have high quality front end components already, I would not be surprised if the additional speakers did not make an audible difference. If they were not of at least the same quality, I would expect that they could even possibly degrade the listening experience.

    Necessary to match brands for 7.1 setup ?

    Sub definetly does NOT need to match and I think if you look at most of the systems people run here, it is commonly the "odd speaker out". The rears SHOULD match the fronts if possible (and the carpet SHOULD match the drapes :p ) but assembling a good system with mismatched rears is also...

    banana plugs - Sewell

    Not sure you need longer screws. It is pretty ccommon practice to double up the stripped wire (bend it back on itself) so there is effectively twice the amount of bare wire under the screw when tightened down with these. I suppose you could triple it if you had to (but there should be no need)...

    9.1 vs. 7.1

    Agreed ... I run a 6.2 system (with a rear center channel) and find that to be optimal for my room and my needs. I am still not entirely convinced that I would hear much of a difference if I scaled it back to a 5.2, but for some movies with rear sounds moving from right to left it fills in the...

    Help! Can Receivers Do This little function????

    Your Yamaha has "scene" functionality. You should be able to set up a number of different modes or scenes as Yamaha calls them for one touch selection based on your preference for an input source. Those scenes are also associated with a source type so for exapmle, scene one would know you were...

    Very high ceilings and hardwood floors; what can I do?

    I would say start off by looking for a good area rug for under your coffee table... seriously. The bigger the better. Your space is similar to mine; very open floor plan. Anything you can do with fabric window treatments and rugs and pillows will help stiffle the echo you are probably getting...

    What the heck are these?

    It is apparently an acid flashback from the 70's :D . Those have a serious retro look to them.
