    Need help on where to purchase Integra DTR-9.9 via internet

    If you buy a used one with some of the factory warranty left, it is NOT transferable. If you buy a new one off the internet make sure they are an authorized dealer. If they are not an authorized dealer, NO factory warranty.

    House Leaking

    I had a ridge vent on the home. Had it removed because it leaked. Here in Okalhoma it rains sideways sometimes. I had it replaced with the standard roof vents. No more leaking.

    Is Kenwood still top of the line

    Kenwood no longer makes home audio or video equipment and they haven't for a few years now. The only piece Kenwood made that would be considered high end would be the KC-Z1 Pre/Pro.

    Well, here's this old country boy's mini review. First off, I'm upgrading from a 12 year old Kenwood pre/pro that died on me a few months back. The setup on the DTC 9.8 was simple enough with very well laid out menus. I went the manual route instead of using Audyssey for the setup. Fisrt...
