| HD AND NON HD TELECAST Panasonic Plasma EDTV is best for TV and DVD (pixels fit exactly)....it also looks very good (but not the best) on HD.An HD plasma TV will actually look worse than an EDTV with a regular TV or DVD source....this is because it has to upscale the si... | |
| Need to turn volumn up to break in speaker cable? LOL - Bojack - I love it - feel the force - yeah baby! | |
| Speaker Distortion or Room Interaction ? What are your speakers and amplifier? From your description, this might be one of two common problems; a speaker thermal compression issue (as coils heat up your speaker response characteristics change and may sound dull and compressed)or a an ove... | |

Subs radiate in all directions because they are only extreme LF bass frequencies - it makes little difference that it is down firing or not...as long as stuff is not rattling (floorboards) or the sub is on an uneven surface and wobbling then you a... | |

| Over emphasis on reviews.... No surprises...reviewers are often influenced by advertising $$$ or £££ and the constant need to define something new and fashionable. | |
| Any info on the fun, new Apple product 28/2/06 A Tivo killer perhaps? | |
| Any thoughts on Hitatchi 55" Plasma? When I looked (about 6 months ago) it was the Panasonic Viera line that impressed me the most. | |
| $1 a foot cable: 10awg no-name or 14awg brand? big cable is probably best value if you don't mind that they are more obtrusive | |
