How high should i hang a 26 wall mount tv in a bedroom?
It depends upon whether or not you want to be lying in your bed when watching, or you have some other seating you want to use.
If you want to lie down, you will want a tilting LCD panel mounted with the center of the screen 4 to 5 feet from the floor.
If you are sitting down, you should position the panel so that the middle of the screen is at eye level
These positions may not be possible if you have dressers and other items in the room, so you should experiment by cutting out a piece of cardboard the size of the TV, and pinning it to the wall with a poster pin. Try a few different heights and positions to find the most comfortable for you.

How do you balance surround sound speakers?
Usually you wouldn't need to but if you wanted to offset it from balanced or if your connection has a stronger signal in one channel than the other you can connect a preamp or an amplifier with balance control and audio inputs as well as out puts to the system. You would connect the wires going in to the surround system into the input of the preamp and then connect the output of the preamp into the input of the surround system. CAUTION do not turn the preamp volume up to high or you risk blowing the surround system.
How do you select speakers with respect to the impedance of the amplifier?
Amplifiers are rated to operate within a range of impedances. Typically, a domestic amplifier will drive a minimum impedance of 8 Ohms or 4 Ohms. Using speakers that have an impedance lower than the amplifier rating is likely to increase distortion and can damage the outputs of the amplifier if the levels are too high.
Using speakers that are significantly higher than the minimum rating will not cause damage to either the amplifier or speakers but it will reduce the power that is delivered to the speakers. In most domestic systems, this limitation of the power output is not likely to be an issue.
Any amplifier rated to drive into 4 Ohms will work well with speakers of between 4 and 8 Ohms. An amplifier with an 8 Ohm rating should be used only with speakers of 8 Ohms or higher.
I am new to all this smart tv fad. How are smart tv apps purchased and how much do they cost?
From free (Netflix and Napster required external paid accounts) to usually included (Youtube and Pandora) to games (a few dollars at most), each manufacturer has its own interface and offerings. All the apps are purchased through the TV's web interface (the TV will need to be connectted to the net with WiFi or Ethernet). Some content is not available in some countries due to licencing restrictions (you can't get a Hulu app in Canada, you can't get a Global TV app in the US).
How do you hookup your mclaren home theater surround sound to your xbox360?
You need the to place the red and white jacks to your amplifier, mine for example go to the line in port and I select line on the amp. the yellow one carries pictures a either goes to your AV port or scart plug. If you are using HDMI the yellow one can be discarded.
Yes, absolutely you can. The difficulty is that the controller needed to do the job is not something that can be bought off the shelf. Here is one idea to make the system work:
First, take the output from the communications radio and establish the signal characteristics. You may need an attenuator to reduce the voltage of the signal. Once the signal is at the right level, it will need to be connected to an input on the stereo.
Additionally, a sensor that will detect an audio signal on the comms radio output or a sensor that detects a valid radio signal on the comms radio is needed. Use the sensor output to trigger a switch from the current input to the comms radio input on the stereo.
As an alternative, the same sensor output can be used to switch the speaker signal from the stereo to the comms radio. You will need a separate amplifier to do this as well as a suitable signal switcher to select either of the two speaker signals.
The solution is not particularly difficult for an engineer to produce but it is not a straightforward job either.

What causes a large yellow circle on the screen in a Sony VPL- X600 projector?
The polarizer on the blue LCD is probably worn out. This is a very common problem, and it always seems to be the blue one that's affected (perhaps it's the one nearest the lamp, the problem is caused by heat you see). They can be replaced, for a price. Some projectors can be DIYed, but a professional is recommended if you're not confident with a screwdriver.

Which is the best 50 inch plasma television on the market?
This is a difficult question to answer, partly because models are being introduced so frequently.
When choosing a new television, after the basic specifications are taken care of (price, size, required connectors etc), it all really comes down to which screen is nicest to watch. It's not a very scientific way to choose and it's certainly not an objective approach but if you like the image, you will enjoy watching it.
It's unlikely that HDMI based video will work with a DisplayPort input. Although DisplayPort can be connected to an HDMI input with a passive adaptor, DisplayPort does not support broadcast color space such as YUV. HDMI can accept and display the RGB format used by DisplayPort but DisplayPort cannot handle YUV which is typically output from a Bluray player.
DisplayPort is an emerging standard and during the time it is being implemented, there will be numerous practical adaptations to the capabilities of DisplayPort. For that reason, this answer may not be valid in the future. Indeed, it is likely that there are already products that can handle YUV so the only sure way to find out if it works is to try it.
You buyed a receiver with HDMI- output is it possible to connect it to a laptop?
At the time of writing, there is no commercially available HDMI input to a computer due to copy protection issues. HDMI is designed to support copy protection and it is very unlikely that there will be licenses issued to allow HDMI inputs to computers.

Convert analog audio to digital audio?
An analog input voltage (or current) would be sent to device called an analog-to-digital converter (ADC or A/D). It is then converted to a discrete number and either processed or stored.
In practical terms, you would have a device that has audio input connector(s) and digital output connector(s).

What is the best home survellaince cameras system?
There is good, and there is cheap. They are not the same. The best system CCTV recorder system with home application capability is the Avigilon CCTV server. This company makes the encoders and software. It is run on an ordinary (high class) PC computer, and the installer can use digital (IP) or analog cameras. A system with 8 analog cameras will cost about $6000.00, not including installation. There is a huge amount of variables here, though, including whether or not you want PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) cameras, if you need weatherproof, infrared sensing, high definition, etc.
Is epic sound high definition 5.1 a good home theater system?
Sorry, it isn't. Hopefully you didn't buy one of these systems. They are well-known as a 'white van' stereo system that is worth very little and promoted as a high-priced system. They are sold by sales guys out of their cars that try to take advantage of people who might not know any better. There are many brands going around (Epic Audio, Paramax...) that sound like name brands. The easiest way to tell if it a scam is the presence of a retail price printed on the box. This is invariably present on all of these White Van systems.
Is denon brand a quality unit for surround sound systems?
Denon have developed a reputation over the years for turning out good quality, reliable and sensibly priced audio equipment. They build equipment for domestic and professional use and they are well respected by users and engineers alike.
There is always a better quality unit around, if you want to spend more money and there is always something far cheaper if you want to save money. Denon is usually a good buy and represents very good value for money. Unless you are looking for the most expensive top end models, Denon are always well worth considering.
Change your projector lamp in a Canon LV-7345U?
Good luck. IF These lamps, by the grace of God, are found new then they usaully will cost more than the unit is worth. Buy a new set. DO NOT attempt to operate on the lamp uneducated. Results can be fatal.
