Basic HDTV Question?
As far as an antenna is concerned, my fellow salesman`s hd Toshiba wouldn`t pull in HD with an "HD" antenna. He tried all kinds of things. the only thing that worked was a straightened-out paper clip. we tried at the sore and it worked fine. I tol... 
High quality custom length Toslinks???
Check "search" here on audiiogon and look for "glass" I bought a 5ft glass for $36 and it is working out great. Because it is a private enterprise, he might be able to vary the length. 
$ 1,000 A/V receiever recomendations...
I have the Denon 3803. I chose it because it has component video upconversion. That means all video cables come in and only one set of component cables go out to TV. Now I don`t have to switch video inputs on the TV. Good sounding too. Remote can ... 
Extended Warrenty???
Hi My opinion is a little biased as I sell big screens and I do recommend getting something extra. The average service call on a rear-pro tv is about $300. This is what our service dept told me. It is kinda like life insurance-its better to have a... 
set top ant. for rca hdtv
Here in Albuquerque the HD signal isn`t strong enough for rabbit ears to pick up. Our store`s rooftop one can. 
Can you receive hdtv signals on dig. cable?
hi It is possible for cable to do HD but they are using the digital technology to increase the number of channels rather than the quality of picture. $$$$$$ talks. I think at best digital cable`s picture quality equals that of regular satellite. I...

Which speakers do the hologram thing?
The first time I heard the 3-D thing was during a demo at a highend stereo place. Speakers were Martin Logan Aerius`s with Golden Tube electronics. I can`t remember what the cd player was. I could walk amongst the performers. kinda freaky. Total c...

Best Cd Player For Around 3000
I once heard a demo of the Arcam FMJ(2000). Then they substituted the Linn Ikemi(3600). There was no comparison. I didn`t expect to hear any differences but it was easy to hear them. It went from adequate to WOW. You might want to check it out 
Burning question regarding upgrading paths
I. You might want to try one of the Rogue tube preamps. II. I think the main purpose behind Zen Buddhism is to take people`s eyes off Jesus and what He did for us on the cross and to put our eyes on ourselves instead. 
Tabletop Rear Projection 16:9HDTV Over Fireplace
Hi Hitachi makes a 43" 16:9 rear projection tv. It is the 43uwx10. We sell it for under $2000. See if you can find a local store that carries both. Good luck Dan R 
What have you been listening to these five weeks?
Hi I`ve been listening mostly to 10 yr old praise and worship songs. I couldn`t imagine going through these last 6 weeks without knowing Jesus. Nothing like entering His gates to find the peace that surpasses all our understanding. Good question. ... 
Digital vs analog widescreen tv
I agree with swampwalker. I sell electronics and sometimes there is digitizing of the picture when an analog signal is coming through. Our least expensive 16:9 tv`s are under $2000. They are made by Panasonic and Hitachi-47" and 43" respectively. ... 
How good is my source?
I heard a demo(they were just resetting up a system) of the Arcam FMJ $2000 cd player. It sounded pretty good. Then they put in the Linn Ikemi and there was a significant difference in sound quality. I think it lists for about $3500. A greater sen...
