Aus: I haven't tried the earbuds in the remote yet. I doubt I will get much use out of that feature.

Re: The Home Theater Showcase Thread

None, as I don't run it. I just enjoy my friends set-up with a 55 LCD. The blacks aren't quite there, but the tech is easy to use and impressive, from what i have seen.

Re: The Home Theater Showcase Thread

Yeah, my TV uses 2:3 pull down. Apparently, I can go into the service menu and hack my TV up to a c590, which adds the Cinema Smooth feature. If'n I ever go Blu-ray, I will have to check it out.

Re: The Home Theater Showcase Thread

They do that to show off the better black levels of today's sets. They ran silver for a while, as blacks were crap for the first few HD years, so they didn't want the piano black highlighting their...

Re: The Home Theater Showcase Thread

Weird - It's the COMPLETE opposite here. LCD is far, far more expensive, and way more popular right now.

Re: The Home Theater Showcase Thread

Bah. Are there other sets of that model for you to go look at to see if they have the issue?

Also - I hate to say it, but have you tried installing ferrite cores on all you cabling?

Vizio? They all looked TERRIBLE in comparison to the set I picked up. You sure they didn't mean the Panasonic Viera line? I was told by many to go for that line as the best bang for the buck, but I...
