I myself went through the process of auditioning speakers in different shops. I honestly heard the same speakers in 2 different shops - one place sounded amazing. The other place sounded mediocre. So personally, I would really recommend you try audition in the same room (with the same AV...

Likewise - I went last year. Bought a washing machine, lol  :tongue: and had a long chat with the importers of Black Diamond screens. Would love to know when it is happening...

Black Diamond Projector screen  :Whoohoo:

We use Supaswift (Fedex), and they give really good rates. They also offer insurance etc.

I got plasma, and I find the quality (especially on SD signals) to be superior to LCD. The blacks and colours are definitely better. However, I do have to be careful which lights to put on, as is the case with plasma - it has bad reflection :(

Another option is to build your own. I have found that with a Corsair CX430 power supply (or Antec VP450), the system remains very quite and you can then customize your HTPC as you wish.

You can try www.remedytec.co.za in Boksburg. They do Monitor Audio and Mission speakers. I personally bought my system from Vaughan at smartlifestyle. He gives great advice. His number is 084 819 5103

Key thing to keep in mind - look out for what CHIPSET the modem uses. For the most stable connection, look for a BROADCOM based chipset (D-link, certain TP-Links, Tenda and Netgear). I personally use a Tenda. It's really simple, but it's a solid modem. Ive heard the D-link 2500U is also a good...

I also use XBMC and I love it! I think the reason people use media players is that they are just straight forward and work out the box. I know with my XBMC box, it always needs some maintenance here and there. Also, I still haven't been able to find a remote that works as well as a media player...

Ya, try contact the Optoma agents locally. They might be able to help, no? I once had an issue with a Canon printer from the States, and it was repaired locally under warranty :)

I did think that it was they way it was ripped, but it happens on too many DTS movies for it to just be a ripping issue :(

Hi, I've got the Polk Rti-A speaker series - RTi-A5 fronts, Csi-A6 centre, Rti-A1 rears. I've always noticed that I needed to yank up my centre channel around 4db (at least), to be able to hear the dialogue clearly. (This is AFTER doing a level calibration). So I thought that my room probably...

Ja, it is fantastic. Just many people would find it hard to get it installed and working correctly. I followed the following guide (with a few tweaks) and it really helped me get MADVR working the way it should: http://www.homecinema-hd.com/intro_en.html MADVR also only works with a limited...

MadVR by any chance?

Hi Guys, I've put XBMC on my HTPC and I absolutely love it. Interface is cool, downloading movie summaries are fantastic and I really like the ability to stream trailers directly from youtube for my whole movie collection. I use MadVR to get the best video processing possible. To do this, I've...

Well, I recently put together 2 HTPCs. The first was a celeron E3400 with a radeon HD5450 graphics card. This works fully with 1080p videoand will do bitsreaming just fine. Those would be your cheapest option. I then heard about mavr. You can do a Google search for it - basically it is an...

Hi, I looking to buy a projector screen. I will be using it to watch HD movies at night time. Size needs to be 100-120 inches. The HT room is shared with the lounge, so I have light walls, light ceiling and light carpets. Projector is the EH-TW5500 1080p LCD high contrast projector. Screen...

I'm a blackberry Torch user. I bought a Samsung Galaxy tab and fell in love with it, so decided to get the phone as well. I bought the Samsung Galaxy S2 today to try out, and it's an amazing phone. I've never seen such a beautiful screen, quick and responsive interface and so many awesome...

Thanks a mil for trying it out - The thing is the problem is not just limited to that file (for me at least). When I change picture frame rate to 24P, the sound sometimes wont work at all for some files. Other m2ts files stop playing half way into the file and sounds drops the rest of the...
