    New Poll: Where are you going?

    I went with Adelphia, Dish was expensive compared to Adelphia for the same HD offerings, plus for $5 a month they gave me a SA/HD DVR w/2 tuners, works almost as good as Tivo... I had the installer split the cable so my Tivo/anolog cable/Directv Locals would still be on its own and hooked up the...

    South Florida Voom Zone!!!

    I get Adelphia cable thru my HOA, I got the Adelphia's HD package & SA/HD-DVR w/2 tuners and had the installer split the cable so my "analog" Tivo setup would still be "as is"... pluged the DVR into DVI input (needed HDMI/DVI adaptor) and the PQ is fine, also like the DVR and the best part is...

    Thank You letters to VOOM and Charles Dolan

    Dear Mr. Dolan, I would like to take this opportunity to Thank You for showing us what HDTV can look like... I would not have purchased an HDTV when I did if it wasn't for VOOM as no other provider offers enough quality HD. I always recieved excellent service from VOOM and even purchased...

    South Florida Voom Zone!!!

    Post Frances Voom'in... I "folded down" my dish the day before Frances got here because it sticks up, unprotected from wind ( I also have cable & Directv which is mounted to the house wall, well protected, so I did have alternate programming ) BUT, I just reattached my Voom Dish to "exactly"...

    [VOOM] Wega vs. the World

    Its personal choice, but I have a Panny 60" LCD that has "GREAT" PQ, and all the bells & whistles. It was a toss up between the Wega 60 LCD & the Panasonic, the Panasonic was cheaper as it does not have a built in hd tuner & I didn't care nor need it... DLP does rainbow & more moving parts, more...

    Tivo Conversion

    I totally understand the Tico frustration, I have been a Tivo junkie since it first came out. I still have my cable ( as it is part of my HOA ) w/HBOs and local D* that goes thru Tivo. I still do all my recording on that input and watch all the HD programming I want, when I want on VOOM so I...

    VOOM Rules!!!

    Lucky Voomer... I can't complain, my PQ on VOOM is excellent, OTA is Excellent, Diectv is fair, cable is fair... VOOM sound quality is excellent.... on cable or D* the PQ depends on the feed I'm getting from the broadcast being recieved, GIGO does apply in PQ reception. About repeats, as has...

    South Florida Voom Zone!!!

    I would not have bought a HDTV at this time if it wern't for VOOM due to the lack of HD programming offered by "any" other delivery service. I guess I'm lucky here in the Boca Raton/Ft.Lauderdale area as both Broward & Palm Beach County OTA network comes in clear, crisp & w/great audio, VOOM HD...

    VOOM Receives Prestigious CNET Editors' Choice Award

    I am not a "professional engineer" but I do know a thing or two about audio/visual/computer equipment, component compatibility and that GIGO also applies with digital monitors and what is "acceptable quality" for me to enjoy viewing & listening to "entertainment".If I was too jump on this site...
