About 15 years ago, we sold a speaker line that produced absolutely amazing sound. The emotion, power and realism this brand offered was unbelievable. Fast-forward 15 years and we're very excited because...they're baaaaack.

"Hi friends...We've been getting the question a lot lately about what service to go with regarding your TV and internet. Here's my two cents as to which one to choose."

"For the best TV quality...none of the above. Go with DirecTV. It offers the best picture quality and you will see the fewest interruptions with service (you know what I am tallking about if you live in Rancho Bernardo or Poway and you have to constantly unplug your cable box to reboot it)."

"For the best customer service, we've had good luck with both Time Warner and Cox. In most cases, you can't choose which provider to go with (some of our clients in Poway are the exception where they can go with either-or). With both of these businesses, you can get a human to help and they offer 7 day-a-week in home service. Prepare to have a punching bag handy to release your frustrations if you are calling U-verse for questions or support. You'll need it."

"For the best Internet experience, go with the faster packages from Cox or Time Warner. It is difficult to determine exactly what speed you will see from any of the providers (Cox Cable, Time Warner, U-verse) as there are many variances when it comes to Internet speed (wiring in the home, distance from the nodes at the street, wiring from street to house, etc.). However, where the claimed download speeds from all three providers are very similar, the actual performance from U-verse typically ends up being much slower due to the wiring that is used from the house to the modem. In addition to the issues with speed, the ATT U-verse boxes have some known networking issues (won't work for wireless bridging, encryption issues with Tivo) that may make some of your networked equipment impossible to use."

"Our final votes are:

1) Cox Cable

2) Time Warner

3) ATT/U-Verse"

"See our earlier posts about saving money on your cable bill and let us know if we can help!"

"Once upon a time, a company named Pioneer made a TV. And this TV was good...VERY GOOD. In fact, it was the best TV in the land. It resided as the king of TVs for years and years until the evil economy came and slayed the king..."

Actually the story isn't exactly like the above nursery rhyme. Pioneer made a plasma TV for years branded under their "Elite" line. It was hands-down the best TV on the market when it came to black levels, color accuracy and motion-processing. Unfortunately, changes in the economy and the bankruptcy of 2 major businesses that sold the TV (Good Guys & Tweeter) caused Pioneer to pull the plug on this Rolls Royce of TVs. However, after years of being without Elite TVs, we have a surprise.

Elite is back! This partnership between Sharp and Pioneer has brought the Elite line back to us. The two new offerings are 60" (PRO60X5) and 70" (PRO70X5) LED TVs. After looking them over at an introductory event, we feel that they offer the best picture in an LED set today. Here's a review courtesy of CNet:

These beauties aren't cheap, but the best never is. If you're interested in hearing what Elite has to offer after all these years, give us a yell and we'd be glad to give you the scoop!
