    Stereo receiver recommendations needed

    Hi, I'm helping my in-laws set up a small stereo system. They do NOT need a 5.1 receiver but are not familiar with audio products. They were thinking about the Bose Wave radio, but I was thinking of a separate stereo receiver, CD player and a pair of speakers. This is for the dining room, so it...

    Subwoofer cable - How long can it be?

    Hi, I'd like to place my SVS 25-31pci at the back of the living room, but that means that I would need to run the subwoofer cable along the base boards (it's a condo, so I can't run the cable under the floor). The cable would have to be 30 feet long to make it back there. Would 30 feet of cable...

    Flexy rack question

    I’m currently working on a flexy rack. I’d like to have the 5/8” diameter all-thread that runs through each shelf to terminate flush (or somewhat flush) with the top surface of the top shelf. I’m thinking there might be a bolt or end cap that’s relatively flat that can screw into the all-thread...

They have 5/8 and 3/4 diameter zinc plated rods, but not any longer than 3'. Anybody know where I can get longer ones? The rack...

    Component cable help: Monster Cable or....

    Acoustice Research or Bettercables.com? I'm deciding on cables for the component connection between my TV and the DVD player. I was at BestBuy and couldn't decide (i.e. tell the difference looking at the two cables in the package) between the Acoustic Research component video cables and the...
