I need to setup a small Xantech IR repeater system in my living room. My TV is a recently purchased Samsung plasma. I see there are "plasma safe" IR setups from Xantech but they are nearly 3x the price of the standard system. How far...

My HR10-250 finally died and DirecTV is replacing it with one of their own HD DVR's. I already have 1 of them hooked up to my TV and in the past it was easy to control/differentiate since one was a Tivo and used a different remote. Now...

Light controlled with stadium seating there is only one option....front projection But seriously in a light controlled environment I would go with plasma. I recently faced the same dilema and someone posted a great analogy. LCD...

What is everyone doing for speakers? The stock ones kinda suck and have a really flat, tinny sound. I have mine on the stand (not wall mounted) and tried the Samsung soundbar. It sounds okay but it blocks the IR on the front of the...

I didn't read the article but my at my local BB the TV's are all lined up against the back wall and that area is dimmer than the rest of the store. I spent a great deal of time there this weekend and the plasma TV's looked just as...

I went with the Samsung 50" 850. It was a tough call between it and the LG LED set but in the end the LG wasn't worth the extra $$$ to me especially with the potential issues (motion, off axis, etc...) I also wasn't a fan of the matte...
