    The Marantz AV7705 Surround Processor/Pre-Amplifier Giveaway is Here!

    I have been using a traditional receiver as the hub of my HT for many years now. With video technology changing fairly frequently, my receivers don't "last" as long as they used to serving as both a video and audio hub. With separates, I can invest in a better, long-term amplification stage...

    RBH Sound Wireless and Beryllium Headphones Set New Industry Benchmark

    Thanks for your input, Tao1 and sholling. I went ahead and got a pair to try out as I don't have a reseller near me (that carries the HP-2s, anyway). I'll report back after a few days of use.

    RBH Sound Wireless and Beryllium Headphones Set New Industry Benchmark

    I have a question about weight. I currently have a pair of V-Moda M100s. I love how they sound, but I feel like they're too heavy sometimes. I wear my headphones for long stretches of time for both music listening and teleconferencing (OT: the V-Moda Boom Pro mic is awesome). Would anyone...

    Harman Kardon Nova Bluetooth Speakers Video Review

    I think if you're in the market for new, portable speakers, options like these HK Novas can make sense. OTOH, I bought this Belkin Bluetooth Receiver and added it to some already-capable, portable speakers. Granted, the Belkin device is not Apt-X compatible, but it's cheap enough to replace...

    TiVo Roamio DVRs Preview

    While I loved my TiVos when I had them and I still think they are great devices, I do disagree with the author on a few points, particularly those regarding cord-cutters. In comparison to the Roku and Google TV devices, TiVo lacks apps for MLB.TV and NHL Game Plan (Roku) as well as a web...

    Here's how you hide a home theater in an older home

    I have a historic home, and one of the most interesting things about it is the construction. Most newer homes' walls are constructed with studs and drywall. The homes in my neighborhood are drywall (or depending on their state of rehab, plaster) over shiplap. This provides an amazing amount...

    Did The Hobbit unexpectedly journey into something bad?

    I have not seen the Hobbit; however, I have seen other HFR videos and agree with others that, at first, the video does look a bit "sped up." That said, I think a lot of the lack of realism is that film has been 24 fps for so long now, directors, set designers, etc. consciously or subconsciously...

    Oppo BDP-103 Universal 3D 4K Blu-ray Player Video Review

    Blue Dude: Reading the literature on the Oppo site, it appears that the BDP-103 will process video using the Qdeo processor from the HDMI inputs. Do you know if this is the case? If it's just a switch, I don't really care, but well-processed video from my TiVo would be nice (I obviously don't...
