An HD picture is only half of the Home Theater experience.
To complete it you need a good sound system.
On this show we routinely talk about receivers that cost $750 and more which frustrates many listeners who want advanced features without spending a ton of money.
The Yamaha RX V565 may be the machine that some of you have been looking for.
At $430 its not the most capable machine out there but for some it will be a major step up over what they currently have been listening to.

Never a shortage of things to talk about, topics in this episode range from the best football movie of all time - and yes, we are talking about American football (although Goal! would have been up there if we weren't).
We dive into projectors a little bit and talk about the new HD streaming service Epix.
The show closes with a discussion of an article from Electronic House about how to tune your surround sound system.

Some say that Plasma is dead but they forgot to tell Panasonic.
Today we take a look at the G10 line of plasmas more specifically the TC-P54G10 54 inch THX Certified 1080p TV.
From what we can tell, plasmas are not dead yet! At $1900 it the best bang for the buck flat panel on the market.

It's almost become an annual tradition for us to do a feature on backyard HDTV for summertime.
This time of year there isn't much to watch on TV, so we have concentrated mostly on movie setups.
We'll expand the scope a little this year, and hopefully provide a little something for everyone.

It seems like all of the HDTV shows we watch have ended for the season, so we're clearing out the divvers and watching alot of Netflix.
While the world of HDTV may not be terribly exciting right now, we still have a ton of stuff to talk about.
One of our favorites, 1080p, is back.
We get into two-way communication and finish with HDMI 1.4.
Enhancements in the new HDMI spec include Ethernet networking, audio return channel, 3D capability, improved performance and new connectors.
