I just got a T260 and think I have my settings pretty good, but I am wondering what everyone else has theirs at. Mine: Brightnesss: 100 Contrast: 65 Red: 37 Green: 37 Blue: 20 Gamma: Mode1 Sharpness: 70 These are all the relevant modified changes.. This is over DVI. P.S. great...

Just to clarify because I am dumb... If I got an amp like the big joe, would a regular rca switch like one from radio shack have a noticeable impact on audio quality? I need a 2 channel amp / receiver that has a small footprint, but I also have 3 inputs, so I need a way to switch between them...

I'm somewhat wondering the same thing, (not tryin to jack the thread). My question is if an rca switch would degrade sound quality. :-)

Is that pioneer you linked me to my best bet for a 2.0 system with multiple inputs, that will get me the best sound?? Thanks! *could I just get a regular amp like the big joe, and use an RCA switch like this? Would there be any loss in quality if I used that?

I can't quite buy them until after the deal is dead unfortunately, are there any other good ones that are ~100? thanks for the help.

good question.. (i know nothing about speakers) what would be a good bookshelves then for around $100?

I need a new setup for my ps3 and comp. I haven't done much researching, but come to the conclusion that a receiver would make my life easier. How well would the following receiver and speakers work for me? receiver - Onkyo TX-SR505 speakers - M-Audio AV30 For music I listen mostly to...

nvm, did some gimp work to figure it out.. 120's are no-nos, but 90s/100s are go-gos :-)

I have been looking into the pc-a06 and the back 80mm.. I'm sure this would have been done if was possible, but I havn't found anything on it. Can someone measure from the top of the i/o panel to the edge of the case. I know the a06 isn't as wide as the a05, but it almost looks like dual 120s...

They look nice, but I wouldn't really be saving any money going with one, and the integrated graphics are bad, meaning i would need a card on top of that, plus the linux intel drivers are meh..

Thanks for the input on the fans, you saved me money too! For size - I am trying to go as small as I can, but still have good enough cooling where I can overclock a bit.

I'm just looking for some CC about the parts that I am pretty sure I am set on.. ps - CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX hd - Seagate ST3640323AS 640GB mouse - Logi wireess trackball optical kb - freestyle solo VIP ram - G.SKILL 4GB case - nzxt rogue mobo - ASUS P5N7A-VM fans - Scythe S-FLEX SFF21F...

I havn't tried sage.. in your opinion? sage > myth?

I do know that the windows offerings are good, but I'll never go back to windows. :-) I'll try myth again, thanks.

Ok so I am building a new linux only comp. I am gonna get at least 1 tuner, and I am really wondering the best looking, and nicest DVR. I have used mythtv before, on a pretty decent computer, and everything was horribly sluggish, and I didn't necessarily like the gui. Is there any other good...
