I know I'm always harping on price, but I tend to agree with the Gizmodo guys that $2400 is an awful lot to spend on a 32" LCD. Sure saying it has 1080p is great, but is it really necessary? The 720p version is only $899. Still a lot, sure, but a LOT less than $2400. But wait, isn't 1080p […]
Read moreHome Theater Blog has a few minutes with the latest HD-DVD Player from Toshiba, and thankfully agree with the improvements made from the first version. First off the new player loads much faster than the HD-A1 or HD-XA1, I’ve read reports that clocked load times at or under 30 seconds (roughly half the time of the A1) but my own […]

With a sexy name like that, how could you NOT want to buy it??? It's not ridiculously expensive, but for $3300, a lot of people want something thinner.

Read moreJust in time for the holidays. Not sure why you'd want 32 inches when they're soon to release the 100" LCD….or if you don't want to spend $50k, this isn't a bad alternative I GUESS. Prices for 32-inch panels may fall below US$300 to US$290 in the third quarter of 2007, with quotes for 40-inch panels to also drop to […]

I'm sure there's SOMETHING wrong with this unit, but if there is, the guys at Engadget sure can't figure it out. They kinda like this sub-$3000 projector, and there seems to be plenty to like. Let me just say right off the bat that this Panasonic projector is outstanding and if your looking for a review filled with negativity, this […]

Touted as the "world's first 1080p HD video display products to achieve THX certification," the Video Xtreme lineup of DLP projectors have survived the rigorous testing necessary […]
Read moreNice article from the folks at Ars. I think it's preposterous as they don't take into account that there's a lot of shows people wouldn't even watch if not for their DVRs–Damn you real world! 🙂 There are myriad conveniences wrought by the DVR, but few are those who say that they don't love the ability to zip past annoying […]
