    Soundbars have come a long way

    Wow,it has been a long time since I've posted in a forum.My living room is small so my first sound set up was a Sony two channel system with Sony SS7000 tower speakers.When the unit went out after a lightening strike close by I got A Vizio 2.1 sound stand and used it for two years.Well it was...

    Just got through watching the big celebration at Clemson and never saw a more humble bunch of guys and coaches.Just think of the seventy eight teams who played in bowl games this season only one of them didn't score a single point!

    With all the hype built up for OSU I did expect close game.Just hope Corso and the rest of ESPN realize they don't know everything.During the game I kinda felt for Coach Meyer every time the cameras showed him on the sidelines.The press conference after the game showed a broken man.At least...

    Clemson can win and stay undefeated and still drop in the rankings.I admit they have played sloppy and had too many close wins but there still a few weeks to go. One thing I give those young men credit for is their never give up attitude.

    Well no one gave those Clemson Tigers a chance against Oklahoma.Every sports site I went to gave Oklahoma the edge.If you could see how rural upstate South Carolina is you would be surprised how they can pack Death Valley with eighty five thousand fans during home games.When you take into...

    Is Clemson over rated? I'll take an ugly win over a good looking loss any day.In my honest opinion we might be ACC championship material but lack the depth and talent to be national champs.

    What bothers fans around here is that Dabo Swinney commented on the fact "IF" Coach Saban ever left Alabama he has the attitude of "never say never" if that job ever was offered to him.As far as the Carolina Gamecocks Spurrier showed his true colors when he resigned midseason.With the playoffs...

    I'm just going to enjoy our team winning.As long as we beat those Carolina Roosters and beat them Tar Heels for the ACC Championship.What the heck is a tar heel anyways. Clemson is playing more freshman on this team anytime since 1943 and are they National Championship caliber team?Well that's...

    Ashamed to be on AM

    When I was in high school back in the early 70's WOWO from Fort Wayne Indiana was the one AM station that was rock solid without all the flutter that AM stations had in common at night.That was a pretty good signal considering I was in upstate South Carolina.Yep when I posted in the Roku forums...

    Ashamed to be on AM

    When I finally got my first smart phone (IPhone5s) a friend told me about the TuneIn Radio app and was surprised that all of the AM stations that was popular back in the 70's most was still broadcasting in my area.Yes most had changed their formats but still I had forgot about them for...

    Out of my league-kinda

    Here is an old school question.My 2009 Vizio has the RCA out to my aging Sony STE-DE197 receiver which powers a pair of Sony SS7000.I'm completely satisfied with my set up but I know my Vizio isn't going to last forever.What I want to ask is if for any reason I have to upgrade and have to get a...

    DISH and 4K

    I remember the first big screen plasma in Sears a few years back and it cost $10,000 then.A Chinese company called Hisense is coming out with a 55 inch 4K TV for under a $1,000.The guys at CNET says that a 1080P signal looks as different as night and day when viewed through a 4K.Not really...

    Superman and Chips coming to MeTV this fall

    I really love the Superman series with George Reeves.Always got a kick out of it when he would stand there and let the bad guy empty a gun into him then duck when they threw it at him.

    So who has GoogleTV?

    Yep I purchased my Sony GS7 in August of 2012 for $199.Outside of flash being not updated they did promise us a browser upgrade from HC3.2 to JB4.2 which we all aren't expecting to get since AndroidTV has been announced.My Roku3 is a better streamer and the browser is S-L-O-W.Even at $99 for the...

    No U Verse

    I was excited back in December 2009 when my neighborhood was full of AT&T contractors and they were laying fiber optic.I asked them what was going on and they said U Verse was coming to our hood.They even put a connector in my front yard.With all that trouble they went to the main cable has...

    POT Lines

    Been away from Dish since 2005.Do they still require a telephone line be hooked up at all times now and if you don't have a line based telephone do they still charge a fee?Dish is much cheaper than cable now and I want to enjoy my new Vizio! TIA :ballchain:

    U-verse Question

    I would know from those who have U-verse is it like satellte in that you have a receiver box to use on each TV.I am not into anHD/DVR receiver so since the digital channels have gotten such good reviews that would all I would want.I have three TV and I guess the first receiver is included...

    Is there any way to find out launch timetables?

    That's what I did right before Christmas when I came home for lunch and contractors and AT&T vans/trucks were all over the place.I asked them what was going on.They told me U-verse was coming to our neighborhood.I called the main ATT&T office and they said if it was just starting construction we...

    AT&T U-Verse

    I just wish you could see the poor quality of Northland Cable TV I put up with just for BB.Even with their fiber optic setup ran through our neighborhood the analog channels are fuzzy and some have these lines that roll up the screen.OTA channels look100% better than their upper digital...
