I have received the Rythmik FV18. Its massive and heavy, was a pain to move around. Furniture sliders were a big help. There are only 2 positions in my room that I can put the sub. In a front corner next to the left speaker, or in the rear-left corner. I tried front-left first, and there...

Long time lurker here, been away from home theater for a few years. I bought SVS CS subs (serial numbers 75 and 76) over 20 years ago, when SVS was just starting out on this forum. I had a disaster occur a couple years ago (house flooded), and unloaded some of the undamaged gear including...

Cool. I just ordered a 3808 for $1099 from Scott at 6th Ave.

I did the neilsen paper diary thing a couple weeks ago. They sent me $15, cash, for my trouble.

I paid the $150 to get out of bed with Cingular. After moving to Georgia, my phone would not get signal in my home. I work from home, and use my cellphone alot. I have always paid my bill on time, and had one of the higher cost plans for the 1.5 years I had ATT / Cingular. I called to report...

Theft? commited by whom? Certainly not Allen. He had no control over what was shipped to him. If he hacked into Dells ordering system and set up the shipment that would be considered stealing. But having them show up at his doorstep due to an error on Dell's part does not make them stolen goods...

Reminds me of a line from some movie: "I already have a guilty conscience, might as well have the monitors too". :-)

When I ordered a Viewsonic 17" LCD from dell, they shipped 2 of them. Only one was on the credit card. I hooked them both up, and once that was done there was no way I could go back to a single monitor. A few days later, the 2nd one showed up on my credit card :-( I kept them both though...

Sweet! I just bought a 24" dell widescreen, and have already called for a replacement because it makes a high pitched squealing noise when it gets warm. Make sure yours dont do that. See this thread for more info. Here is a pic of my setup: I have 2 17" viewsonics and the 24" dell...

0.35 posts per day. Now I cant post for 3 days so I can get my average back down!

30 minutes is pretty good for a first-timer. I always take at least 20 minutes trying to figure out how to plug in the little tiny cables for the front panel buttons, speaker and hard-drive lights! Those always seem to be a pain.

See this thread. I just got Voice Pulse and really like it. $25 unlimited usage. Sound quality is better than my old landline. Jeff

I have had my Voice Pulse service for over a week now, so far so good. One problem I noticed was that call quality was terrible when I was downloading files on my PC. Break-ups, echo's, etc. It was really bad. So I picked up a new router (a Linksys WRT54G) that has Quality-of-Service...

Whats amazing about the one in my garden is how large the web is. The web itself is about 5 feet in diameter, its at ground level. One of the anchor lines goes to a tiki-torch right next to the web, but the other one goes to corner of my 2nd story roof! That sucker is 20 feet long and pretty...
