  1. I know what you mean. I've been trying to pick a color for my exterior and have bought 20 sample pints and its never what I envisioned. Believe me because I like neutral colors, that is a nice brown and I bet its awesome to eliminate home theater reflections too. I like the black on the screen wall too. Nice job again. Props to all the others, but this gets my vote for best I've seen in awhile. Edit: carpet is great too.
  2. Very, very nice! I dig the color scheme and like that Studio Tech cabinet too. Good job.
  3. If you unveiled a ground loop problem that you have then this works well. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/HumX/
  4. Me? I like the Denons. I think they have a very clean sound and the 3808 has alot of features including ethernet port for Internet radio / music server / firmware updates, etc., multisource/multizone, HDMI 1.3, 40 hz and 60 Hz crossover settings, and all the latest audio formats, etc. I was coming off another Denon so I didn't really compare with anything else except Yamaha. If I were buying again I might look harder at Pioneer, Onkyo, and Marantz or separates if I had the $$$, but I am very happy with this unit.
  5. I use the Audyssey first and tweak from there. When you calibrate the main listening position, put the mic in the middle listening position and the distances and levels will be accurate. The sub distance may look strange but is probably adjusted for room eq. Really only major change I made was fade the surround speakers for movies, but play with them all as you can always recalibrate.
  6. If all else fails a speaker wire in the cabinet could have come loose during shipping. This happened to me on my sub and one of my RF-7's.
  7. It sounds to me in this scenario he benefits a little because now he has atleast a little bit of rumble below 30Hz. What if he set it up a different way and had one sub crossed over or EQ'd to handle 30Hz + and the sub with more extension to handle 30 Hz and below? Might be worth a try.
  8. It has everything. http://www.usa.denon.com/DVD-3800BDCILit_924.pdf
  9. This one has everything....except games. http://www.usa.denon.com/ProductDetails/3749.asp
  10. I would go 1080P, too. To me, the top Panasonic Plasmas have accurate color and black levels second only to the Pioneer Elite but are more affordable. See for yourself. If I were buying today I would look again at the new Samsung LCDs with high refresh rate and Motion de-blurring but again, more money.
  11. I would look into the new Panasonic DMP-BD30 if you have a late model receiver/processor. I heard it handles 1080P24 video and bitstreams DTS-MA. If your processor decodes DTS-MA you will have the latest and greatest.
  12. The Panasonic BD10A Bluray player has component and 7.1 analog outs. At first I thought HDMI was the shtuff with only one cable to hook up until I tried to use video select, and multizone features, etc... Since you can't use these features with HDMI, I think it mostly sucks.
  13. I posted early on but just upgraded.

    I did get it. thanks. It looks like you sent me everything. I haven't had a chance to check it out that much as I have had my system unhooked swapping a couple components and new audio stand. But I will soon.
