Soupy Sales, the rubber-faced comedian whose anything-for-a-chuckle career was built on 20,000 pies to the face and 5,000 live TV appearances across a half-century of laughs, died Thursday. He was 83. Read full story here
I need to purchase a new lawn mower. Requirements include a minimum 21" deck, rear bag, mulching capability, and self propelled. Looking to stay around $400. Looking for brands/models to consider, brands/models to stay away from, ease of use, etc. Thanks in advance. John
Just looking for some opinion/feedback on mounting a SMALL 20" flat panel monitor (weight approx 14lbs.) in our bedroom. I purchased a mounting bracket for mounting to a single stud (bracket weight is < 4lbs). The only problem is that the wall space available for mounting does not contain a stud...
I realize that the 2 disc Limited Collectors Edition of 20th E.T has been OOP for about a year. However, I was able to obtain an older copy of the DVD via Ebay (although it was misrepresented :frowning: , what a suprise). I cannot find any info on the disc that I received and was hoping that...
Does anyone have an "official" release date for the DVD of "National Treasure"? The inserts contained in the new "Bambi" DVD say it is coming in April 2005.
Did you purchase the matching TV stand (SP46W)? The literature for the TV states that it is approx. 40" high. That would put it at just below eye level while seated. If you add the stand (approx. 13" high), that would put the total height at about 4 1/2' at it's highest point. That is about the...
I can't be the only person that bought this :D. It has been out for a week and is still not listed on DVD Profiler. I realize that the show is not great, but it is a guilty pleasure of mine.
I will be purchasing a new TV within the next 4 week and have narrowed down my choices to the Hitachi 46F500 & the JVC AV-48P575. There is very little in the way of customer reviews on either set so I am looking for opinions from people who own either one. The cost difference between the two...
I have a question about DVD Profiler updates (if this is in the wrong forum, moderator please move). How often are new disks added? I just purchased "The Jeff Foxworthy Show: The Complete First Season" (I know, I'm probably the ONLY one :D ) and went to add it to my profiler. Much to my...
This 3 disk collection is available from buy.com for $12.63! I ordered mine on 7-19 and it shipped on 7-20 (with e-mail confirmation) with a UPS delivery date of 7-27. The cheapest that I've seen this anywhere is $35. :emoji_thumbsup:
I have a question concerning the above releases. I had asked for "Married With Children Season 1" for Xmas. Unfortunately Season 1 could not be found at any local B&M stores :frowning:. The gift giver (my mother-in-law, who is very good to me) was told that purchasing "Outrageous Episodes 1 & 2"...
I am interested in getting a 36" flat screen 4:3 TV (I can't convince the wife to go 16:9 yet as she watches TOO MUCH "regular" TV). However, every post seems to complain about geometry issues with the 36" models, and it doesn't seem to matter which manufacturer. I currently own an older...
I tried calling Best Buy, Circuit City, The Disney Store, etc. and no one has ANY info on "The Love Bug" being released today. Has the release date been pushed back?
My daughter has an older TV set that only has an RF connector. She already has a VCR connected to it. She wants a DVD player. Is it possible to connect the DVD player to the VCR so she can use both? I understand about the picture quality of the DVD being degraded with this set-up but I'm...
I am looking for any and all opinions on the "Old-Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker" by Nostalgia Electrics. This table-top device is a hot air popcorn maker that would be a perfect addition to my very modest Home Theater. There doesn't seem to be any reviews or info other than purchase...
I have a Yamaha RX-V595 A/V receiver and am using a Polk PSW350 for a sub. Which configuration will produce the least amount of distortion at near reference levels, LFE level on the receiver at "0" (-20dB to 0dB) & volume on the sub amp at "9 o'clock" or running the sub amp higher and the LFE...
Unfortunately, most of my speaker connections are the spring-clip type. I am using 14G speaker wire inserted into the spring-clips. Would there be any benefit to using pin connectors instead of bare wire other than the obvious (stray wire to short, neatness, etc.)?
I realize that this has probably been beaten to death, but I need an opinion.
I am re-calibration my speakers after moving them around. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of either VE or AVIA so I must use the test tones in my Yamaha RX-V595 receiver. This is acceptable for now. Since the...
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask this, but I have an EQ that is sitting on top of the vents of my Yamaha receiver (I know, this is NOT GOOD) inside an entertainment center. I have installed exhaust fans behind the receiver. I have about 1 1/2" above the EQ. I need some...
Anyone have any thoughts on why the switched AC outlet on the rear of this unit might stop working? Went to shut off the unit (places the unit into stand-by mode) and the equipment connected to the switched outlet remained ON.
I need some advice from anyone who has experienced a similar problem.
I have a 5 month old JVC XV-S45GD DVD player that recently began "freezing up" about 1/2 way through a movie. I contacted JVC tech support and they informed me that I may have "read a bad disk" and e-mailed me the reset...
What type of cable would you recommend to connect a subwoofer to the LFE output from a receiver? I need about 25' of cable. Could I use a good RG-6 cable w/75 Ohm RCA connectors or would a "digital" cable be better?
