Home Theater

I know that component cable is superior to coax, composite, s video, etc. I'm about to upgrade my connection from my cable box to HDTV from coax to component. How will I notice the improvement? In what areas? Thanks!!!

I recently bought a Yamaha RX-v861 and I'm trying to hook my Bose 901 speaker system up to it. The 901's require a free-standing equalizer to be hooked up as well. Does anyone have any suggestions?

When you watch cable with the volume all the way up, you can barely hear the TV. But when we are watching a DVD the sound is great. What can we do to fix the cable sound? Something, somewhere is crossed.

Someone from bestbuy told me I had to get a monster cable 800 or 1000 series to get a 1080p signal, is that true? I have a 1080p plasma TV.

do you need a projector specially made for dvd players rather than computers. we have seen a cheap Dell one which is mainly for meetings/powerpoint presentations but it says is ok for a small lounge. Would it be ok or would it compromise picture quality? It has 2000 ANSI lumens, contrast ratio 2100:1 and is DLP.

Something went on the fritz at my apartment and now I get too much voltage coming out of my power outlets. I have my audio/video system plugged into a Panamax MAX 1000+ line conditioner, and its overvoltage light stays on when I turn it on. The manual states that the voltage must be greater than 135V for that to happen. The amplifier won't turn on at all and the turning on the DVD player causes the line conditioner to repeatedly turn on and off. I notified the apartments maintenance, but I don't expect them to do anything because other things work, like the tv and lamp. I want to know if there is something I can buy to plug into an outlet and step down the voltage to about 120 AC.

I'm on a limited budget, but would like to get a nice home audio system for my family room. I need to have the surround speakers in the ceiling. Should I buy a complete system or maybe piece on together? Thanks!

I have an in focus projector. during the start up screen, which typically has shades of blue, the correct color is displayed. But when I connect my laptop and display the screen through the projector, all the colors have a green tint to them. I've tried adjusting the color settings, but nothing helps. Is this a cable issue? or a bulb issue?

If you can give me a website with instructions or lay them out yourself that would be greatly appreciated. The remote we ordered didn't come with programming instructions.
