Buying A Projection Lamp. I recently (February 2010) purchased a replacement lamp from advancedlamps.com for a ae3000u. First, the lamp arrived "unhinged" from the chassis. I had to reseat the bulb for it to fit. I had them note this on my order. So, I installed the lamp in the projector. Amazingly, and to my dismay, this "new" lamp was dimmer than my 2700 hour OEM "old" lamp! To say I am ...

Giving My Back A Break. After many years with a CRT, I gave up my monster Sony 32” Television (bye bye tubes) and went shopping for a hi-definition big screen television. It would be nice not to have to move that CRT monster. When you consider I had to move it myself (weighing well over 120 pounds), a flat-screen would be welcome relief. Earlier, my massive Sony CRT computer monitor was ...

Lamp Issues. After using this TV for about a week, it suddenly stopped working. I called Toshiba and was walked through their quick fix. This involved removing the lamp housing door and the lamp houseing. Then, I was directed to tap on all sides of the housing (NOT the glass). After that and it still didn't work. So, my tv was registered and was set-up to get a replacement lamp sent. This ...

1080p Flat panel Home Theater General Impressions. From the start of a movie to the end, you can't help but be awed by this great TV!  Its edge-to-edge screen (the side and top borders are barely more than half an inch thick), multiple HDMI ports, and easy on-screen menu, the Mitsubishi WD-65C9 65 inch TV is a winner.  After 3 months of watching it, and having bought many other large-screen TVs before this ...

This is a 1080p, 120Hz, Home Theater, DLP HDTV. Comparing 2009 to 2004. HDTVs have certainly gotten cheaper with better image quality since 2004! Comparing this new WD-60737 to a 62" 2004 Mitsubishi WD-62725 is quite an eye opener. The picture quality is superior, while being much lot cheaper. The 2009 is much brighter (with the mirrors on the old one cleaned and the bulb replaced) with much better contrast. 1080p vs 720p. The 2009 ...

Findng the Right TV. After doing a lot of research (probably too much), I came to the conclusion that a DLP set would be the best purchase. For those who have experienced problems with this set, I bet 90% were made before November 2004. Before then, these sets had numerous problems with its color wheel and bulb. I requested they ship me a version made either on or after November 2004. ...

A Chance To Buy A New TV Well, it was time to sell my 65" SONY rear screen projection set. While it gave me 3 years, it had no HDMI connectors. Since, I had an opportunity to sell both my Sony TV and my old Yamaha receiver, I felt it was the time to make a change. With my newly acquired wealth, I got the Samsung HL67A750 TV. In earlier days, if ...
