    Sony Bravia tv wont turn on after attempting to update firmware

    I tried ti update the firmware with a usb drive, but when I plugged it in and turned on the tv it wouldn't turn on anymore, now I'm going to have to take it back. It didn't even update, it just caused it to not turn on. Has anyone ever run into a similar problem like this? Now I'm afraid to...

    Recommend monitors around 27" please

    I was thinking about buying a 32" 1080p sony bravia HDTV for a monitor, but it seems the general consensus is that pc monitors are better. What would be a good monitor 26" or above that would be better than an HDTV? My budget is about $600 (since that's how much a 32" hdtv would cost), but I'm...

    What MP3 player do you guys recommend?

    I figured I'd ask here since everyone is more knowledgeable about audio quality and hardware. I haven't payed attention to MP3 players for years, I was wondering if there were preferred ones other than popular brands like Zune and Creative. I'm looking for 60gb - 120gb. I don't care if it plays...

    Recommendations for monitor under $600?

    Will be used primarily for gaming and movies. I would imagine that anything bigger than 32" would be too big for using at close distance. HDMI and component inputs would probably be ideal since I own a PS3 and Wii. The one I'm looking at now is a Vizio 32" 120hz HDTV, and I'm betting most of...

    120hz HDTV as monitor

    I'm trying to decide whether to get a vizio 32" 120hz 1080p hdtv and use it as a monitor, or get a true 120hz monitor. I understand that the tvs don't use real 120hz, but tricks (true motion feature) to make the refresh rate seem faster. Will 3D (for pc games, such as RE5) still work with a...

    Can an equalizer damage speakers?

    I have Swan M10s and I've been using my sound card's equalizer to turn up low freqs and high freqs several db. When I flip my custom EQ settings on it sounds so much better to me, but will it damage the speakers? Also will it damage headphones? I like jacking up 62 and 31hz up almost all the way...

    Distortion when speakers hooked up to tv

    On my PC, everything sounds fine and smooth, even when I'm watching poorly encoded videos or streaming videos online there isn't much distortion. But when I hook the same speakers up to my samsung plasma through analog audio out, and play the same files (streaming from ps3) there's quite a bit...

    Can you plug speakers into a TV's digital optical out?

    If a tv only has digital optical audio out, can you get a pair of powered digital speakers, such as these, and plug them directly in? Or do you need a receiver/DAC for it to work?

    Questions about setting up dolby headphone on Auzentech Forte

    Just got an Auzentech Forte. Are "Dolby Digital Live" and "DTS Connect" supposed to work similarly, both outputting virtual 5.1 into your headphones? What is the correct way to set these up? Are you supposed to set windows to to 5.1 then set the console to headphones? Or should windows be set...

    Fitting Yate Loon slim in bottom P182 hd bay?

    After reading that you could fit a yate loon 120x120x20mm fan in the very bottom hd bay, I ordered one. I can't seem to fit it in. It's too tall, I can't get it through the metal frame. How do you get it in there? edit: nvm, apparently you have to cut out the metal, I thought it was supposed...

    Multi-driver vs Dolby surround headsets?

    I'm thinking about getting the Logitech G35 7.1 (USB) Dolby surround headset (or possibly waiting for the Razer Megalodon), but I have read a few comments where people prefer the 8 driver (Tritton/Astro 5.1) over the Dolby technology. I've seen mostly negative comments about most multi-driver...

    Question about bass boost option on sound card

    Could bass boost on my audigy 2 zs damage my swan m10s in any way? Also what should the cutoff frequency be set to? Should it be set to 42hz since that's as low as the m10s can go? thanks edit: Another thing, I noticed in the specs that the frequency range of the amplifier is only 100Hz-20kHz...

    Good cheap fan controller reccomendations?

    Will an HD VGA transcoder make Wii look better on my monitor?

    I have a 22" monitor (1650x1050) with component inputs. I can connect Wii to it but it doesn't look too good. I came across some HD VGA transcoders/adapters/scalers such as X2VGA which are supposed to upscale 480p to as high as 1080p. Would this make the image look better or worse? Anyone...

    Best 2.0/2.1 speakers around $30?

    Any recommendations? I wont be using them as much as headphones so I don't want to spend a lot.
