    Don't Forget to Tip the Garbage Men for XMAS

    It's that time of year again where we should all remember the ones that work hard for us but aren't always appreciated. My wife put $20/ea for our two garbage men in an envelope attached to our trash can today. I watched from the window at their reaction and they were estatic. Sadly so few of...

    Peter welcome to our forums and we are certainly happy for you to participate here. I do have one question: Do you work for Monster Cable or for the Social Security Administration or both? I feel its important that you disclose this since it seems you are speaking on behalf of Monster...

    Monster Cable Drops Mini Golf Lawsuit and Offers Compromise

    I suggest ALWAYS referring to them as "Monster Cable" and NOT "Monster", else you help legitimize their brand one day filing for a Famous trademark on the word "Monster".

    Svs Sbc/scs-01 Vs Emp Htp-351t?

    its not "strange" as much of it being a relatively new brand with limited distribution. there are other reviews: http://hometheater.about.com/od/loudspeakerreviews/gr/empreviewshor.htm and on other sites like Ultimate AV: http://www.ultimateavmag.com/speakersystems/808emp/ there are...

    Svs Sbc/scs-01 Vs Emp Htp-351t?

    That's a pretty big room and the open layout is a problem for bass. You need at least 2 subs to better cope with this. The EMP system is more catered towards music than movies. You may want to instead consider a high efficient system from the likes of Klipsch. The audio fidelity won't be as...

    Svs Sbc/scs-01 Vs Emp Htp-351t?

    I'ts actually a stupidly brilliant deal. Its stupid b/c your getting these speakers at a loss to the manufacturer. It's brilliant b/c its a marketing tactic for them to get market penetration without having to launch a massive ad campaign. This deal ends at the end of the month. For...

    Svs Sbc/scs-01 Vs Emp Htp-351t?

    It's really an apples to orange comparison. The EMP's retail for over double the price and include tower speakers for the fronts. You should verify that your brother can accomodate a tower speaker system before making that judgement, else look at the HTB-351 system which is currently at a...

    EMP Speaker Package Blowout Sale

    This is a pretty slammin deal. I spoke with the folks at EMP and they decided rather than launching a marketing campaign in the print magazines on the EMP brand, they instead decided to take a loss on selling these speakers at these prices for a limited time as a way to garner some market...

    Denon AVP-A1HDCI / POA-A1HDCI Review Support Thread

    Guys; I sent in an email to Denon regarding posts #194, 196. On a different note, I was wondering if any fellow AVP owners have tried to run 1080p component video thru HDMI up conversion? I am unable to get a picture when I run my XBOX360 at 1080p via component video to HDMI on my AVP...

    Denon announces flagship DVD-A1UD Universal Disc player (BD/SACD/DVD-A/CD)

    Obviously it's different for this player. I'd imagine once you set it to Dlink4 it will output audio via Dlink for CD/DVD-A/SACD and the master clock when doing TrueHD/DTS HD while sending those bitstreams via HDMI. I will do an interview with Denon Jeff once I get my review sample in a few...

    Denon announces flagship DVD-A1UD Universal Disc player (BD/SACD/DVD-A/CD)

    No only the clocking for reduced jitter. The bitstream for HD formats will still pass thru HDMI.
