Spring cleaning ! Onkyo M-282 amp. 2 channel, 2x100 @ 8 ohm, 2x125 @ 6 ohm. Like new, very nice amp. Paired alongside some other notable amps, this amp displays a clean sonic range and keeps up well regardless of volume required at the moment. Has a signal loop for chaining amps, input gain...

SOLD>>>.Traded for this great sub recently but it is overkill for my new home. Excellent condition and works like new. I acquired this sub from a person who bought two of these monsters new and it is apparent he took very good care of his equipment as do I. I don't have the original box so...

Got a couple of older amps up for sale. Both are in wonderful condition and work flawlessly. They are currently being used in my ht setup but am moving and do not intend to hook everything up again. Acurus [email protected] at 4ohm....No manual or original box. Well known for being great...

There's still a few of us around here who still have an ancient 4:3 rptv and still watch a predominately 4:3 signal. I am now looking into upgrqading to a dlp,HD-ila or something...... and of course, everything is now 16:9...... but I am concerned how a 4:3 tv signal is going to look on a...

In great shape, very little use with it mostly used in my son's room. I've had this player for a year and it does a great job at upconverting through component. It does have the firmware upgrade that changes it to the LG model specs per the keohi web site. I have the box, manual, remote. I...

Just thought it would be fun for some here to guess where the pics associated with our names or sigs actually come from. I've got some unique ones (at least I think so) to begin changing to if anyone wants to play. I look forward. Anyone want to ake a guess at what mine is?

Having an early model tv that is HD ready but only has component inputs, I've been limited to the dvd player I can use. Will the DVI-I to component conversion cables work well and allow me to upconvert out of a dvd player with DVI-I output? Somebody fill me in before I buy something that won't...

Just wondering who has downloaded the new version of IE and your take on it. My initial impression is it's pretty differnent and web pages have a new, improved look. Haven't got into the "inner workings" yet but so far so good.

I was just wondering who else around here is still using "oldies"..... meaning ht gear that has been around a while but is still kicking butt.I know mine is old..... but I always get a lot of comments about how it still rocks. I've had my receiver for 4 or 5 years now. Yamaha RX-V1..... it is...

Recently I've bought an air mouse- Gyro Tools brand.... and have been having a ball learning how to use this thing. Pretty trick. I have the cordless (of course) optical air mouse with the extra hyper buttons.... the gyro tools program is pretty trick and so easy to program. Just wondering if...

Just wondering what most persons around here wear for work shoes. After leaving the chemical business and walking on concrete for hours each day, My foot needs changed...... Been a big fan of Timberland Pro Series low cut work shoes for years, but having looked recently at some new ones, I ran...

Had a funny incident the past few days that I wanted to share........involves a person who involves herself in more things than she needs to and typically makes simple things into rocket science.... such as the case with this situation. Last year, I entirely remodeled my Aunt's home. She has a...

A lot of us are sometimes prone to stupid things but I have this neighbor who .......... recently mowed his yard on an old snapper mower, with his 4 year old daughter sitting in his lap asleep, with arms and legs dangling..... Bought a new riding mower and a canopy, then hauled it down the...

Since it turned a little warmer, I've been firing up my recently acquired Staublestone grill, and really been into grilling various things. I usually make my own burger patties with chopped onions mixed into the meat, various flavor brats and some occasional chicken. Looking around in a meat...

Just a couple of days ago, I checked a thread here that listed a LOT of member's sub projects and a ton of links for info.... but now I can't find it. Would someone please point me in the right direction...?

Some of us older folks have had several jobs throughout our lifetime and often refer to one of'em as a "favorite". Looking back, there was one job that stands out as the best job I ever had. In 1982, I was hired by a major chemical co. to be an on-site service consultant to General Motors in...

This is kind of a rant but I'd like to get some ideas too. I have a new concern about the methods I have been using to control the evil spam machine that I am sure plagues everyone with a computer. I daily get 3-4 spams concerning drugs that are worded dimply to bypass spam filters. I began...

Just thought I'd let those of you who like to keep your vehicle clean and shiny, in on the latest "wax" from the Zaino Bros....... My father handed down the love of a shiny vehicle to me and after years of using various waxes and polishes, I discovered clay bars and Zaino. My vehicles have...

I have a HDTV that predates dvi and hdmi. I've noticed that the digital feed of HD channels is so much better than my dvd player feed and I am looking for ways to improve things without spending a fortune...... Is there a dvd player that upconverts to componet????

I've been catching some great movies on various HD channels and have began to think that the sat feed was a little clearer than the same dvd. Perfect Storm was on DISH-TNT-HD last night which gave me a perfect opportunity to compare the quality difference of the sat/HD feed vrs a dvd...

The "talking heads" sports commentators have been running wild with this "sledgehammer" story, hyping it to no end.....I finally caught the story this morning and noted that the "sledgehammer" is simply a small rubber mallet.....the type you use on wood flooring.........but NO ONE,,,,, NO ONE...

I'm sure most around here have their fav wallpapers but I just found a new site that has some fantastic pics and just wanted to share. I've actually saved a lot of them to my files for use as screensavers slides also. It is a member site but has a lot of free pics also.... Check'em out at...

I finally am getting hidef after taking Dish Network offer of free stuff...... I tried to stay with direct but they offered NO incentives even after I told them I was changing..........but when I called to cancel service, all of a sudden they offered me the 99 buck deal.......... I ended up...

Is their a reason to choose one over the other? I've had Directv previously and now I'm going to HD, which of these two would be the best way to go. Directv seems more expensive since you have to buy the HD receiver where as Dish is free equipment and setup..... would you make this choice on the...

I've been on a mission lately to upgrade my direct tv account to HDTV and in my quest, ran into some minor obstacles which led me in other directions. After finding that I will have to erect a rather high antenna to receive most OTA HD signals since I am 75+ miles away from Memphis, I began...

I am sure we all occassionally see an irritating commercial but there's one lately that has really got me to the point I'll even change the station in protest...... The "Raisin Bran Crunch" commercial of the guy who can't hear he's being fired because of the crunch is simply unbearable. I...

I sure wish someone had told me about this but we had to find out the HARD way.... About a month ago, my GF's sister began making beef jerky with her newly acquired jerky dryer and bringing a batch over to us occassionally. My 8 year old would tear that stuff up! Welllllllllll....... my son...

After most of the summer & fall, we have began to enjoy our HT system again and of course, once again, I want to calibrate, calibrate, calibrate to get the most out of everything. I've noticed that upon calibration, I find my sub, a PB2+, really doesn't give us much ooomph until it is around...

My current tv is a Toshiba HDTV ready model and I have Direct TV/Tivo...... but I want to watch the HD programming that is available over the air or any other that is available. Do I need a set-top-box to decode the OTA signals or simply hook up an an HD antenna? Also, when various stations are...
