| Plasma 42 inch .... The Hitachi is the latest, model is 42HDS52. I am using DVI to HDMI from STB and component from DVD at the moment, but I will experiement with those to see what's best.Thanks for the anamorphic explanation. 16:9 zoom gets rid of the bars but you l... | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... We bought the Hitachi, but we may take it back. The problem is not the set itself so much as the difficulties we are having adjusting to widescreen, high def, loss of TiVo and so forth. It's less easy to just sit down and watch TV and, as great as... | |
| Best Concert Film >Problem with The Last Waltz is that 90% of the show is studio overdub, thus not truly a live show. Say what?I just want to say that I was at The Last Waltz, so I got that goin' for me. In case it isn't obvious in the film, Van Morrison was the... | |
| Best DVD player with DVI?? By the way, folks, the Oppo is $200. New. | |
| DK Design Group X-Dream - wow And what's become of Gilmore? Are they still around? | |
| What is the best CD player direct into one's amp? I use a modified Marantz player from APL Hi-Fi, who are famous for their pricey modified Denon and Esoteric players. $1100 complete for the Marantz. Sounds wonderful direct into my Rowland 201 monoblocks. | |
| Need help making TV decision We ended up getting an Hitachi 42HDS52 plasma. This cost about $300 more than the consumer Panasonic 42" but is an exceptionally attractive unit, has two HDMI inputs and is getting great buzz over at AVS forum and other sites. I can't say whether ... | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... Based on all of the latest input, I am now adding the Hitachi 42" units to my consideration set. A little more money than the Panasonics but they seem very full-featured and are quite handsome. A few consumer reviews have even commented on excelle... | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... Actually, I think it's the TH-50PHD8UK | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... Thank you again, Rysa4, you are an exceptional resource.Someone on AVS Forum also claims that the 8th generation consumer does not allow for overscan adjustment. In practical terms, I don't know what that will mean to me, but I'd say the evidence ... | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... Rysa4, what are the "couple of problems with the Panny 42 HD" you mention?We looked at Panny ED and HD in Magnolia the other day and felt that the PQ with HD content is considerably better on the HD model, while SD looked only a tiny bit better on... | |
| Miles Davis--Cellar Door Sessions? I saw Miles at the Cellar Door but it was in late 1969 if memory serves (the box set is from late 1970). I sure would like to know who was in that band. Airto is the only one I'm pretty sure of.The Cellar Door was a great club. | |
| Plasma 42 inch .... And what's the price difference? | |
| Need help making TV decision Are the displays themselves (and the PQ) identical? Someone around here said or implied that the commercial versions are superior. | |
| Need help making TV decision My thought about the cable card was to use it in lieu of the STB, not in addition to.Does the consumer version have more than one set of component video inputs? I would need two at least (TiVo and DVD), and it appears that the commercial version h... |
