Auzentech X-Meridian 7.1 Sound Card

I haven't had a chance to investigate Auzentech's X-Meridian suitability for HTPC life quite yet. For example, I am not sure if it will pass through sound unmangled or not. If you guys have, drop a line in the comments box and let us know what you think about it. While we wait for people's responses, head on over to […]

Movies slow to take off online

This really doesn't surprise me much at all. Sure downloading is easy, but so is Netflix-ing, and then you have all the "pirates" who will copy their Netflix movies. Can't do that with the DRM-heavy online movies. And it's not like you save all that much money to truly make it worth the effort. But according to ABI Research, only […]

Sharp Aquos 32″ 1080p TV: Overkill?

I know I'm always harping on price, but I tend to agree with the Gizmodo guys that $2400 is an awful lot to spend on a 32" LCD. Sure saying it has 1080p is great, but is it really necessary? The 720p version is only $899. Still a lot, sure, but a LOT less than $2400. But wait, isn't 1080p […]

JVC HD-61FN97 HD-ILA 1080p RPTV

Tongue Out

With a sexy name like that, how could you NOT want to buy it??? It's not ridiculously expensive, but for $3300, a lot of people want something thinner. But if you can sacrifice, apparently the picture quality is worth talking about. The HD-61FN97 is a 61" 1080p RPTV that retails for $3,299. While very similar to last year's model, the […]

Engadget HD Review: Panasonic PT-AX100U

pana_total

I'm sure there's SOMETHING wrong with this unit, but if there is, the guys at Engadget sure can't figure it out. They kinda like this sub-$3000 projector, and there seems to be plenty to like. Let me just say right off the bat that this Panasonic projector is outstanding and if your looking for a review filled with negativity, this […]
