    Is 12 gauge speaker wire overkill?

    I've rearranged my HT room, and now my 16 gauge runs aren't long enough for the rears. The runs will be about 50' each, and since I'll be running them under the floor, I want to do this right the first time.

    Considering going HD and need some advice...

    First of all, I should mention we already have a Sony 36" HDTV; it's a 4:3. We currently have a rooftop off-air antenna and are thinking about upgrading to HD. Since we've never had satellite, this would be a HUGE step up for us. Anyway, I went to Circuit City yesterday and got some info. on...

    Noise-Cancelling Headphones

    Hi, I was wondering just how much noise noise-cancelling headphones can block out. I was thinking of buying a pair for when I'm mowing the lawn (which is much too large). Do you think a pair of these would block out most of the engine sound from a noisy riding mower? If so, are there any models...
