I'd change that rug too - it's minging! ;-)

I have the HTR 5890 and when it would not switch on I took it to the local Yamaha Dealer and they ran the serial number before telling me it had been originally purchased from an unauthorised dealer (I inherited it). They would not touch it and would not even sell me an extended warranty for it...

Yup, you're a teacher alright!

Using a Yamaha 5890. No HDMI though, just optical for the sound.

I just spent half a day fishing two 8 gauge cables through the firewall of my jeep to run two amps in the trunk space. It may have been easier to run them from the fuse box inside the car but there was nowhere in the fuse box to tie in a cable of that size or to mount the 40 amp fuses which are...

Thanks for all your advice despite my complicated first post! Here's what I did just for interest. I wired the 550 watt amp 4 ohms bridged to the sub. This gives me 220 watts rms to the sub which is plenty. The 4 door speakers were rated 140 watts max at 50 watts rms. I purchased a 4 channel...

The also sell them on their Sams club auction site. For instance they list an in-store price locally for a Samsung 42" plasma at $1188 but the current winning bid for the same TV at Sams club auctions (auction ends May 30th) is $507. I did some quick research on line and cannot see any...

My neighbour did exactly what you did - he built a fence 2 feet inside the property line between my house and his. At the time I could not afford to go halves with him to pay for the fence, but later when I wanted to fence in my yard I offered to do so. He insisted it would be OK for me to...

Ok I am on the beg for some help! I have a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo which I will be shortly be giving to my son as his first car. It had a factory head unit with four factory speakers. One of the rear speakers is dead (checked by switching it for a front and it does not work there...

I would like some advice please. I need to get some kind of display to run a couple of revolving DVD-based presentations for a trade show/mall type booth. I would like two displays around 20" a piece. I have looked at LCD flat screen TV's, as well as PC type flat screen monitors. There is...

It certainly does! Try the Roku M1000. http://www.rokulabs.com/ Comes with a wireless card and has the digital readout you are after. Works with most music lists including iTunes. Priced the M1000 in Best Buy yesterday @ $199. The M1001 is available on line at above link for...

I agree with Steve. I pay $5.99 for 4 extra HD channels from Dish network and with a $7 indoor aerial (the old "rabbit ears"!) I can get the local channels in supposed HD which is really just digitised older analogue programming. I rarely watch TV on my HD big screen preferring to keep it for...

I have seen those KEF jobs and they are pretty cool, however I am kinda stuck wth the speakers I already have. What I had imagined was putting the speakers on the ends of 1" metal poles (steel tube so I can run the speaker wire inside) and drawing these poles up and down though holes in the...

Thanks for the response Chris. The ceilings are just regular 8 foot ceilings but I was under the impression that the speakers would need to be down around ear level when sitting, as they would be if they were on floor stands. Having four speakers hanging at that level might mean I need to...

Don't know if this has been discussed on this forum, but I would like some advice on suspending speakers on retractable poles. My 20 x 20 games room/bonus room has both RPTV and my son's desk/PC on opposite walls. I need to get speakers to the rear and sides (7.1) of the two couches that sit...
