    Sony Qriocity Preview (Streaming HD VOD)

    Well, I don't know if anyone is interested in this thread, but I'll post an update anyway... I did order and watch a movie after this initial post. It seems that the folks at Sony/Qriocity don't know what they are talking about. The video quality was very good. I don't know what rate...

    Sony Qriocity Preview (Streaming HD VOD)

    I wasn't exactly sure where to post this because I have Sony Internet Video features on both my LCD (KDL60NX801) and my Blu-Ray (BDP-BX57). This board seems to get more traffic so I'll throw it here... I called this a "preview" because I have only messed around with the previews thus far as I...

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    BTW, thanks for the monoprice reference! I had not heard of that company before and just ordered some speaker wire from them at a great price. The cable came quickly, the quality is superb, and it is much cheaper...even with shipping, than what Best Buy was going to charge me for similar...

    New Bravia - so far very impressed (NX801 60")

    So, I've played around with the set a little more and I'm still very impressed. Sony has a new feature called "PC to TV" however, which is very poorly documented and doesn't seem to work. Allegedly, you can install a plug-in on your browser, then, when you find a video link you want to watch...

    New Bravia - so far very impressed (NX801 60")

    Just a quick review and possibly a little tip for anyone in the market for a large LCD. Initially, I was looking at the Sony Bravia KDL60EX700 at $3000 ($2700 is the going price). The EX700 uses the new edge-lit LED backlight for a very even light distribution, has 120Hz and is wi-fi ready...

    At what height would you mount a flat screen?

    So, you're saying make eye level, 1/3 up from the bottom?

    At what height would you mount a flat screen?

    Got a new 61" flat screen to mount today (90lbs.) This is going in a theatre room that is the size of a medium bedroom. Not huge, it'll be big enough for one sectional couch with ample space in front and behind. Just curious what you think a good height is? I know that too high and people...

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    You're right, diogen. Oh well on that one. On the upside, I looked at my spontaneous blu-ray player purchase from Costco and found out that it has built in wifi as well! That's great. Now let's just hope the start-up and disc load time is quicker than the last Sony blu-ray player I...

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    Well, it certainly would be nice if all my devices could pass ethernet around to each other. Think about it...my new Sony has WiFI built into it. If that could distribute ethernet to my Dish722 (which needs it) and my Sony Blu-Ray player (which benefits from it) that would make all my home...

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    Ahh, now that is interesting. Would be worth putting in cables on a new set that I don't have to change down the road. I'm staring at this package of twin WireLogic HDTV caples that I picked up at Costco. Was deciding if I should return them or not, but you just mentioned "3D" and it sent...

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    Thanks, guys. I'll stick with what I have. Any time you ask a "tech" in a store they insist that you are a moron for spending $ for a nice set and not paying for the premium monster cables to go with it.

    New 240Hz HD set...should I upgrade HDMI cables?

    Okay, first, I understand this may not be the best board for this question but we have a dizzying number of boards on this forum and the one that deals with cables seems to have only one recent post. Interesting article, but way too much detail for my question when I'm happy with your opinions...
