So what works for 3D? What can you expect to watch with it? In one word, Everything. The dust is settling and the true form of 3D is starting to emerge. Sporting events take on new life, making it appear as though you are sitting in the stadium. You get first row view of your team on a field, the lay of the golf course, or the exact distance that a play was or wasn’t made. Movies now immerse you in their setting and literally draw you in as the story develops around you.

Bottom line is that 3D TVs are the best 2D TVs on the market. They are the flagships models, each draped in the finest technology that brands have to offer. Incredible video processors, deep black levels and contrast that make even CRT TVs drool. They are connected, offering the best input packages and other levels accessible to the internet. Some will even change the content that you have to better suit their third dimensional delight.

If you are looking for a top of the line HDTV, 3D is going to be your best choice. If you are on the fence, hopefully this will help make your purchase decision that much easier. You can also checkout some of our recent OneCall videos of the latest 3D HDTV sets to hit the market.

Hi this is Paige with OneCall.com; I’m going to be talking to you about the Yamaha RX-V367 and Yamaha RX-V467 home theater receivers. The RX-V367 gives you 100 watts per channel, while the 467 provides you with 105 watts per channel. Each receiver has four (4) HDMI 1.4 3D capable inputs; however you may need to download a firmware update from Yamaha’s website. The Yamaha 467 supports an HDMI audio return channel. Both of these Yamaha receivers have 192 kilohertz, 24-bit Burr Brown digital to analog converters; this will allow you to have the best audio quality on every channel and a more detailed sound. One of the things I really like about both of these Yamaha receivers is the compressed music enhancer; this will take any music files that you have stored on your Mp3 player, iPod or iPhone and increase the dynamic range and overall sound quality. Basically it makes your Mp3 files sound really really good. There’s also a mini jack on the front of each receiver to connect your Mp3 player, iPod, iPhone or other portable device. Another great feature are the 4 scene buttons with just a press of one button it will take you to the source you’ve selected and you can either listen to the preprogramed sound settings that Yamaha has selected, or you can customize each button to choose the sound setting that sound best for your needs. The Yamaha RX-V367 offers Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II, and dts Digital Surround Modes. The Yamaha RX-V467 offers Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital True HD, and dts HD Master Audio. One of the features I really like is Yamaha’s Silent Cinema. This allows you to plug your stereo headphones into the receiver and enjoy cinema quality sound without disturbing anyone around you. The RX-V467 also offers YPAO, by simply using a small microphone it will calibrate each of your speakers for better sound quality. With the RX-V467 you can upgrade from 5.1 to 7.1 by using your surround back channeled pre-amp outputs. Both receivers are compatible with optional Yamaha accessories such as the YD-S12 iPod, or iPhone dock or the YB-A10 Bluetooth wireless receiver.

“To claim HDMI version 1.4a the product must support all of the mandatory 3D formats. As you know, in the near future Mitsubishi will make available a firmware upgrade for the 738 and 838 series HDTVs to accommodate all of the 3D formats, so that Mitsubishi sets will not need the 3D adapter. Until that time, Mitsubishi cannot claim our products support HDMI version 1.4a. At the current time none of the current model Mitsubishi TVs support all of the mandatory 3D formats; however the software upgrade for the 738 and 838 series HDTVs is planned to support all of the mandatory 3D formats and some of the optional formats. Before Mitsubishi releases this software upgrade we must have these TVs re-tested for 3D support by HDMI, then we can claim HDMI 1.4a 3D support.

The 3D adapter already supports all of the mandatory 3D formats and a fairly large number of optional 3D formats. This product has already been tested by HDMI for 3D support and has passed the tests.”

Of course there will be more info to follow so stay tuned.

My parents purchased a Vitamix blender 2-3 years ago.  For months every time I spoke to my mom she was waxing poetic about what she had created using her Vitamix.  She even took it with her when we went to the Organ coast!  I thought she was a little nuts.  Who takes an appliance with them on vacation?  During our vacation she made us waffles from scratch that tasted like cookies but were much healthier than any waffle of cookie I had ever had.

A few months later I purchased my own Vitamix.  I figured why not give it a try.  My husband thought I was a little loony given that we had an industrial blender that he had bought me for a Christmas and a smoothie maker that did a fine job.  He was not sure what the Vitamix would do for us that our other small appliances were not already doing.  The first week of ownership I showed him!  I was making smoothies that were amazing and in a fraction of the time!  The Vitamix crushed the ice to a perfect texture. I am able to use the entire fruit (skin, seeds and all).  Best of all there are no chunks that get stuck in a straw!  I have made soups from scratch without using a stove or any other device to heat.  I made a tomato basil bisque using all real foods from scratch.  I have made my own flour using whatever grain (from flax seed to oatmeal) I wanted.  My family is eating more fruit, vegetables and healthy grains than ever.  The Vitamix was one of the best possible investments I have ever made towards the positive health of my family.  I now take it along on our annual trip to the Oregon Coast!

Hi I’m Thomas from OneCall. Are you considering purchasing a large screen TV from OneCall? Let me show you how we take care of each TV before it ships so it arrives in great condition. All of our large screen TVs are shipped on custom sized pallets. Each of our orders are scanned for accuracy of model and serial number. We apply ShockWatch tape to the box to notify the carrier your shipment is fragile and that we are using ShockWatch stickers. This is what the ShockWatch sticker looks like when it’s applied to your shipment. When your shipment arrives you want to be sure you inspect the ShockWatch devices, note the condition of the ShockWatch on the freight bill when you sign for your shipment. The small tube on the ShockWatch sticker will turn red if it’s been tripped. We apply a variety of stickers to your shipment to give the carriers instructions on handling. We also apply a very important sticker you want to take a close look at before signing for your shipment; this gives you instructions step by step on how to sign for your shipment. One of the last things we apply is an envelope with your packing slip enclosed. We also band your television set to the pallet to keep it in place so it doesn’t move at all during shipment, it also helps to keep it upright. I’m Thomas from OneCall, as you can see we take a lot of steps to give you the peace of mind that your television will arrive in good condition. If you have any questions give us a call, we love to talk to our customers. Thanks for watching.

I have recently been looking for subwoofer. A friend of mine needed one and of course has a limited budget. He is a good friend so I wanted to get him the best boom for the buck and I found a great deal at OneCall as usual. It is a Velodyne VDR-10BV. A 10 inch, 400 watt sub with remote! What’s the remote for? It gives you the power to control the subwoofer’s volume, phase, DSP sound mode and turn on the Night Mode without leaving your set.

I was very happy to see that I could get my friend into a high performance subwoofer from a top manufacturer like Velodyne at a great price. When he picked his up from OneCall it was priced below $300 with free shipping. I would hurry prices can change daily and at such a great price they won’t last long.
Well, my friend is happy and I have won yet another battle in the arena!

Check the latest price from OneCall for the Velodyne VRD-10BV Subwoofer.

May you be victorious in your pursuit of Home Theater.
