hts3500_angled.jpg

Cables:

All speaker cabling and interconnects were done using the best Monster Cables I could find at Best Buy. I normally wouldn't use Monster Cables because they cost too much for their average performance, but I was able to purchase them at 50% off so I went for it.

Here is the second setup (once again, listed prices are what I paid for them):

TV::

Sony - 51" Hi-Scan 1080i HD-Built In Rear Projection HDTV $1,200

dude, put some pics

darn I like your Rotel amp

I see you got it cheap!

do you like your sony HD tv?

585401318[/snapback]

Yeah, the salesman was real nice to me since I purchased the Rotel amp along with the B&W 700 speakers that same day so he cut me a deal.

The Sony RP-HDTV is alright. Picture is sorta noisy at times and only satisfies me when watching HDTV. DVDs don't look as good as I would like...but hey, that's what you get when you buy a RP-HDTV. My 32" tube HDTV on the other hand....man....DVDs are smooth as butta! I'm upgrading the 51" to a plasma within the next 2-3 months though so I'll post again once I get it.

I'm not, and never will be rich, so mine's pretty suck,

Philips 28" 28PW6518/05 With stand - ?399

28PW6518_05_webImageFullSize.jpg

EDIT: forgot to add a couple of other essential components because they are worth mentioning

dude, put some pics

Pics of what man ? The things I listed was just a joke... thats almost $350,000 of AV equip. !!

Or do you want boring pics of a crappy HDTV thats burning or a Onkyo set that cost more than its worth ? LOL

Even worse when my parents had the house built where they live now, they had a theater room built. Basically a way for the builder to jack the cost of the house another $50,000 and provide $1500 worth of equip. Actually it was $38,000 and one of the components they installed was a dual DVD burner (JVC)...I mean charged them like $2000 for the thing and they didnt realize the computer in the other room will do the same thing for $5.00

They wouldnt listen to me when I tried to advise them on the equip. basically, they couldnt believe their son might know more than a crook that builds houses !

I mean, everyone knows hanging sheetrock is a prerequisite for theater equipment !!

Do you sense some hostility ?

Back to the question -- What pics would you like , sir ?

:)

:angry:

I'm 14 and don't have alot of money. so I dont have the greatist components but it's loud and thats all i need. :D

Receiver:Sony STR-DE697

Front Speakers:Quest Q660

Rear Speakers:Quest QB6

Centre: Quest QC5

Furthermore Kdenlive brings a powerful titling tool, a DVD authoring (menus) solution, and can then be used as a complete studio for video creation. Kdenlive supports all of the formats supported by FFmpeg or libav (such as QuickTime, AVI, WMV, MPEG, and Flash Video, among others), and also supports 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios for both PAL, NTSC and various HD standards, including HDV and AVCHD. Video can also be exported to DV devices, or written to a DVD with chapters and a simple menu.

Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.
    • People in the '50s and '60s had the same attitude, and we're still here over a half century later.
    • So after some fiddling I was able to get it to run at a pretty stable 30FPS. I'm slightly surprised about how much fiddling I had to do to get there though given what I thought was reasonable hardware: Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics Memory: 16 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon 780M Graphics Graphics Processor 2: AMD Radeon RX 7700S I think I could do it better if I use Linux rather than Windows, Windows RAM usage is stupid without stripping the system down. But once I got it working in a reasonable state, it was so awesome! I felt like a new Bond! If anyone has any advice to get things going a bit smoother FPS-wise, I'd appreciate it.
