Most of the time that I'm watching TV, I don't need that much sound. The very compressed dynamic range that comes out of the crappy TV speakers is actually ideal for watching TV quietly where you just need to understand the announcer and don't need to hear people clapping and cheering behind you, underneath you, etc.
They also need to put the next episode on the air before February 9th!!!
I need one to take the place of 8 remotes, plus it's in another room. I have a cool Memorex one that I got 8 years ago, but I could never figure out how to operate the damn thing. The new remote must be easy to fly.
Well that one I linked does 9-12 devices, is Rf so walls will be fine, and it can learn what it needs to do or something (I have no idea how this works over RF). Some of the newer ones are ridiculously complicated, and some are drop dead simple.
Then hurry up and watch it! Sheeit.
I'll have to start researching them. Off to Best Buy & Socket Circus this weekend I guess.
Best bet will definately try some if you can. The sony one i was given ages ago with a tv is awesome (remote commander). Another one i have that was given to me is the most convoluted remote on the face of the earth, and getting it programmed is a friggin nightmare.
Of course
that's where the Harmony kicks ass! Connect it to the 'net and pick your components. Easy.Transcend said:
The 600 has a few more bells and whistles, the 600 looks a little cleaner.
I think if they can come up with an industry standard the card slot would rule!!!!! Who knows, I'm going with the box and may also go for the DVR feature. We already have Tivo, for our upstairs TV.
The problem is that cablecards are not 2 way as of yet, and most companies still requires 2 way communication with the cable box.
Plus what will end up happening is they'll change the card size and you'll be SOL with using the card slot.The problem is that cablecards are not 2 way as of yet, and most companies still requires 2 way communication with the cable box.
Ya, that too. Gotta love planned obsolescence. HD tv rules in any case, and you will certainly enjoy it. I am still trying to get my damn antenna up and running, been too busy this week to get up there and sort out the motor.
I'm surprised you didn't already have one in each room in the house...a man of your riches...you should have ordered it sooner so I could come and watch the ufc on it, damn it!I can't wait!!!! Ordered one of these, it should look good over the fireplace.
Cool, you'll be able to see Art Shell's tears in large HDTV!Just got the TV yesterday!!!!! It's reallt bitchin!!!!! Comcast stops by tomorrow with the HD box
I am all geared up for Sunday to watch the Raiders embarrass themselves in KC. But this time it will be in HD, so I'll see Shell's teardrops hit the grass like the morning dew.
:biggrin:
Hi!!
You need to find a new job that doesn't mind you surfin' the
And you got it installed just in time to rub it in your family's face at Thanksgiving.:biggrin:
Shouldn't there be a question mark on the end of that?
Yep, it's a temporary setup until my home theater installer comes back from vacation. He needs to bring me a few things and put all the cable ends on the wiring.
