Audioasylum and even audiogon are good too. This is the wrong place. The questions being asked whould be revolving around room size and type, musical preferences, and budget.

I re-ran a search here with different paramemeters and it seems that the composite inputs are disabled. I guess that answers the question... -rob

I recently switched from Tivo to the Comcast dual tuner dvr. My wife has a couple of programs on the tivo that she wants to keep. Is there any way to record the tivo content onto the comcast box? Can the comcast box record from an input other than the coax cable feed? I realize that there are...

I have an 80hr series 2 Tivo that is in 8.5/10 condition. OBM, remote, cables, etc. Very nice unit. Sell for $90 shiped via fedex ground. Would also consider trades for lcd remote like sony 3000, harmony, older pronto etc. rtrodier at sprintpcs.com thx

Good advice everyone. Liftiing straps and a few extra sets of eyes. If you dont hear back from me than consider me hospitalized! -rob

Greg, 57" Sony, 195 lbs. That is really my concern too Matt. Would you do it again i guess is my question. also, would it make it easier to take it out of the box? Probably not worth losing the protection it offers... -rob

Thanks for the advice. I may give it a go. What the worst that could happen, right??? -rob

Subject says it all. Is that more than a buddy and myself should try and bite off? I am 26 so am not worried about hurting myself. But I dont want to try something impossible either and drop the thing down the stairs either. 2 flights at a 45 degree incline or so. No bends but the hallway...

Electrocompaniet is good stuff as well. Very unique sounding though, you need to hear it before you buy- and if you buy new you are way over 1k. I had the smaller integrated that did about 80 wpc. Nice but very different. I dont think you can get into anything Rowland for 1k or under. I...

Shows how much you know. The terk is not an antenna, it is an entire control unit. This is exactly the reason why I stopped frequenting this forum. I used to be 5-10 posts a day. Now I visit twice a year. People respond as if they are speaking the gospel, when they have no idea what is even...

If you are looking for a permanent, sleek install than you have no ther choice. The other plug and play units that are designed to operate back and forth from house to car do not look as sleek when installed or have as good modulation when transmitting via FM. The commander is desinged to wire...

Stern fans will pay it and deal with it gladly. Stern does not owe anybody a thing. If you dont like the pitch, sont bite. -rob

The easiest thing to do would probably be to run an integrated amp off of the tape output on your yamaha. This will allow seperate control settings in your auxillary areas while still letting you access your main source components. In addition, you wont be taxing the power supplies in your...

Thanks Stephen, Not how I would have designed it but I guess it will work. Thanks a lot -rob

Thanks for the response... That doesn't seem to make sense to me though. It makes perfect sense for the tivo to act that way when it needs to change channels to record at my request. My question is how does it know when it can record its "suggested" material? If what you are saying...

I apologize if this has been asked, but my search struck out. My series 2 seems to have been designed to stay on all of the time. If so, how does it know when it is okay to change channels and record it's "reccomended" programs? From my perspective; I leave and walk out of the room...

Sorry for the dealy. I have been out of town. Thanks for the reply Matt. That is exactly what I was looking for. -rob

Thanks for the responses. I do need to sign in as a guest, due to the fact that the password and sign-in for the original master user-name was lost. Can you please tell me more about the wipe & install. I am not familiar. Your help is greatly appreciated. I agree that ME stinks, but...

I recently inherited a pIII pc running windows me. My problem is that I need to sign in as a guest and consequently am not allowed to make any signifiacant changes to the system, or even uninstall older programs. Is there any universal sign-in that will allow me access to uninstall etc...

Exactly Jack, this is not the place to ask. Good luck Doug, you are on the right track. -rob

this may be what you are looking for. Good luck -rob

I listened to the quart 1000, and 2000 models 7-10 years ago which were in the $1500-$2000 range. My impression was excellent. Those titanium tweeters can be a bit much in the wrong systems. Also, most are a 4ohm load. Make sure you amps can handle it. If so, they are well worth a hour or...

I would go to Best Buy. I too, hate giving them business. However, I think it makes a lot of sense in your situation. It is so much faster, you dont have to worry about shipping (either way) and if something goes wrong you will have a new pair within hours. Your not doing it for Best...

The best thing about Sennheisers is that they are comfortable!!! My Grados used to kill me after a while. Glad you like em, enjoy. -rob

I would start with speakers and work around them. Trying to do the entire system at once is overwhelming. I would suggest something that is ported in the front. If they are rear ported than your 1.5ft clearance will probably not have them far enough away from the wall as they need to be. What...

Stereophile gave the as-f2 a nice write up a few months ago. I would search their archives. Definately a good speaker, and a great value. good luck -rob

I am not sure about sounds getting lost. However, my dealer/friend estimates that around 10x more needs to be spent on speakers to equal the performance of a set of headphones. So a $50 pair of headphones is comporable to a $500 pair of speakers etc. Obviously this is an estimate. YMMV A...

You should definately look into a sperate amp. The 804s have the resloving power to make it well worth your while. Any preowned 2ch amp >$300 will out-perform your marantz amps. -rob
