Home Theater
Jim I asked:


About ten years ago I bought a home theater system from a buddy of mine strapped for cash. I bought a receiver, tape deck, five-disc player with two large speakers.

Large = 20.5″x16″x36″. They are carpeted, and have a large hole on the bottom to put a pole up into. There are carrying handles on either side, and the speakers must weigh 70-80 lbs.

The fronts are identical. Vertically, there are two circles with nipples in them (sorry, have no idea how else to describe), then a horizontal opening, then a large round “speaker” at the bottom.

There’s no markings on them on the outside, and I don’t want to tear into them too deep without knowing what I have.

The reason I want to know what to look for is because I want to sell the set-up, and need to know what I have.

Any help, websites, or suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks!

I have two 4 ohm subs and a 900 watt RMS (at 2Ohms) amp. I was planning on wiring them in parallel down to my 2 ohms when i set them up in my car, (but i wont get that until fall) so i want to put them to use by hooking them into my home theater system. Can I do this?

I am looking for a mid cost projector that I can use for a home theater. It needs to have hook-ups for all gaming systems and dvd players as well. I would like to find one that last a long time or the replacement bulbs are reasonable. This projector would be used every day. Picture quality is very important. Is there anything out there like this? I am a little confused by all the different projectors.

I recently replaced all the speakers and dashboard in my camry with new equipment(sony). It sounds amazing but doesn’t kick enough. My dad has this really nice home theater subwoofer that he gave me. Could I put that in my car? Its like a $250 sub.

I am looking for a good quality home theater system as a present for my son. Every time I find something I think might be good, I find there are some horribly bad ratings by consumers. Has anyone bought one up to the 500-dollar range that they like, can play games, listen to music, TV, easy to install, and all around nice sound that won’t break down in a month or two?
Thanks!
