They each come with a subwoofer, but the sub on the SL77 ups the ante by going wireless. The SL75 is available now, while the SL77 won't hit until April.

Samsung OLED! (and LED, Plasma and more…)

Samsung OLED! (and LED, Plasma and more…)

Posted on Jan 10, 2012 by MG3

Organic Light-Emitting Diode TVs offer the promise of the best picture quality ever (and yes, we’re including CRT). Long “vaporware” in the TV world, 2012 might be the year we see actual models. Samsung’s 55-inch model sure seems like the real deal… maybe. They’re promising a delivery in 2012, but at the moment there’s no pricing, release date, or even a model number. We remain optimistic, but skeptical. HDGuru was told it was advancements to the lifespan of the blue phosphor that allowed development of OLED into a real (potentially) product this year.

Pioneer BCS-717 414 313 and 212 Blu-ray Cinema Systems Make you want to Adopt

Posted on Aug 23, 2011 by MG15

While Blu-ray has been out for quite a while now, we’re still seeing businesses across the board continue to release videos on both the newest high quality medium AND the slightly older and lower quality plain ol’ DVD format. Believe it or not, there are quite a few people on the planet still having yet to switch over to the Blu-ray world for more than a couple of reasons – the continued production of DVDs being one of them. What Pioneer is doing here today is making quite a grand swipe at making us want to switch over with four, count them, FOUR new 5.1 Blu-ray home c4inema systems.
