Thanks to Digital Dude for assisting me with getting a great package at a great price.


The Onkyo 674 is amazing. It upconverts all signals, audio and video from any connection (component, composite etc... It really does work too!!!!

My Standard Definiton Dish Signal on my 42 and 52 DLP's is very poor, but with the 674 to the projector --- it's actually the best picture in the house.

The 674 has a microphone that helps you set-up your system and it works very well.

Do not let other people "Videophiles" try to convince you that 1080p is that much better than 720p. This Panasonic projector is downright amazing for the price.

The Projector was extremely simple to set-up too. Mount it, turn the focus knob and WOW!!!!!

I still have to build a platform for the couch and finish the walls, but I will send pics to show set-up.

ROOM IS 25 x 13 with NO natural light coming in. Basement is completely underground.

If anyone has any questions or comments, please feel free to respond

Yep, if you search them, some places still call them Bass Transducers.

Those are the ones I have, I power them with an old 150 watt receiver... (got them at parts express)

When someone new watches a movie I don't tell them about the shakers. Check their faces when the boom starts.

Very cool!!! Now what kind of shakers are those and how do you have them powered.

As listed already, I have the Onkyo 674 Receiver. I am assuming this is not what should be powering the shakers.

Thanks,

Joe

Aren't they connected directly to the receiver or amp like a passive sub?

EDIT: Found This

They are some aura-bass shakers that parts express had on sale a few years ago.
