    The Very Best 32" LCD TV For Gaming?

    Red colored text from that web site is not affected because it actually has an orange hue. It's pure red and pure blue text against dark backgrounds what is problematic (green looks good): Example of red text. Example of blue text. Example of green text. Conversely, pure red and blue...

    The Very Best 32" LCD TV For Gaming?

    I use a TC-37LZ800 as a PC monitor and have commented about the colored text problem in this AVS forum thread. The text issue is not a "defect", it's a design flaw that affects all units. Apparently, the problem resides in the way digital video signals (HDMI) are treated internally: chroma...

Apparently this feature is some...

    Shielding issues Logitech Audio systems resulting in Popping en Humming sound

    FWIW, I used to have the Logitech Z-560's and also experienced the annoying humming issue to the extent that I ended up replacing them for a Klipsch system... problem solved and it sounds much better :D . My case was a bit different though, humming came from all speakers, specially from the...

    What are the best pc speakers?

    I believe CompUSA has them on display, however, pricing there is at the full MSRP ($400) according to the online store. :eek:

    What are the best pc speakers?

    The OP asked for 2.1, so those Logitech are out of the question, besides, I owned the Z-560 (basically same sound as the Z-680) and can say for sure that its bass was boomy as hell and definitely not clear (another request from the OP). I still recommend the Klipsch iFi, the satellites (RSX-3)...

    Any Home Theatre Speaker users here?

    Sorry if this is OT... but how do the X-LS speakers compare against Klipsch's RSX-3/4 satellites?

    Klipsch ProMedia Ultra + Reference series speakers?

    Yeah, I'll probably get a separate receiver later, but AFAIK the Ultra subwoofer is also capable of driving the RSX-5's. BTW, did you consider the RB-15s?

    Klipsch ProMedia Ultra + Reference series speakers?

    Thanks for the suggestions, I hadn't considered the Synergy series before, those Quintet III's look very nice. About the RSX line, by pricey you mean overpriced, less bang for the buck, hyped? I wouldn't mind getting just a pair of RSX's if their quality was noticeable better than the Quintets'.

    Klipsch ProMedia Ultra + Reference series speakers?

    Some people who got the ProMedia Ultra 5.1 system have succesfully upgraded their satellites with speakers from the Reference series such as the RSX's. I want to try that and go for the RSX-4's or even the RSX-5's, however, I don't want to spend more than necessary for an overkill solution...

    Theater in a Box combo vs. Receiver + Speakers

    Thanks for the comments. I guess I'll be more aware of real specs next time I visit the store. I forgot to mention in my previous post that I also plan to drive a pair of Sennheiser HD595 headphones off the receiver. How do I tell if the receiver is capable of driving those headphones? Should I...

    Theater in a Box combo vs. Receiver + Speakers

    Hi everyone, I'm in the process of choosing a receiver + speaker combination to replace my current crappy audio rig. While browsing Sony's web page I noticed there is a category called "home theater in a box" which consists basically of what I'm looking for: a receiver + set of speakers. There...
