Moe, Your experience mimics mine with the Saucony. I know the Asics are reported to be a great shoe, but they felt a little flat in the sole. Nikes are always too narrow. About the usage of the shoe... I always wondered why my father-in-law seemed to have a hundred pair of nice running...

Please don't take my post to mean that I'm not for New Balance as well. They just didn't seem to feel as good as the Saucony. As a matter of fact, the same day I bought the Sauconys, I bought the New Balance 1040 (msr $110?) with the Stability web and N-ergy cushioning. They'd probably be my...

I just started running a couple of weeks ago. Instead of buying the good shoes to start with, I just took off in my 2 year old New Balance shoes. Whoa, what a mistake, now I have shin splints that are terribly painful. I asked my father-in-law who is a long-time marathon runner about my options...

Yep, saw some of it. Was it supposed to be in HDTV, 'cause it weren't here'.

I'll get in line here. If it falls through twice, I'd like to take it off your hands. Thanks!

What exactly will spikes do for them and what should I be listening for? My Klipsch RF3-IIs came with spikes and plastic pads. I changed out the spikes in favor of the pads to allow easier speaker placement (no sliding them into a corer with spikes).

Just wanted to say that I bought an SVS Ultra a while back from David and it was in fine condition and as advertised. He's a good guy.

Spy Game was shipped out this morning. Thanks David!

Chen, My price was $13.50 shipped, you offered $11. I wasn't aware of any requirements to negotiate and figured the lack of a response was as good as a simple "no thanks". By "1st Class", do you mean just stick it in an envelope and ship, no priority mail or insurance? If so, and David_B...

David_B I think I'd like Apollo 13 if it's the DTS version or if not, Tombstone Vista. Let me know

Spy Game, viewed 1 time. Perfect condition. My trade for something anyone in the family can watch (PG13) or will sell for $10 plus $3.50 shipping. Would like a title with DTS, but not mandatory.

In all fairness, I'll have to say that my local Postmaster is great. Through it all, she has been the only one that has even bothered to try and help when I encounter problems with the postal service. Wow, maybe this makes me sound like I'm a gun-jumper, but she just now called my wife to say...

Although I checked off Priority Mail, this post deals with Express Mail as well. I just want to say that the US Postal Service is the poorest excuse for a delivery service as I could ever imagine. Last year, I mailed out (at about twice the cost of UPS) an insured package, only to have it...

The 2 Hitachis that I had, both 43uwx10b hdtvs, were junk. One had terrible geometry that the service man could not fix and the other had a short that caused the screen to keep resizing. Fortunately, I bought at Sears and was able to trade up to a 55809 Mitsubishi. It's 10 times the tv that...

Jenna, I have the 55809 and am very satisfied with it. I had 2 Hitachi HD tv's before this one and neither even came close to the picture. Also, I like the Mitsu's menu much better and like having the ability to tweak the convergence right from the menu instead of having to go into service...

I don't want to lose my money, but I'm prepared to take the loss. I've never gambled, played the loto or even made a monetary wager over anything. I saw the K-mart stock and decide to take a chance. I'm currently 63% ahead and could just call it quits now, but I think K-mart is going to make...

haha, that's funny steve. Not too bad for a brand new investor though... abeit small time money.

Did this post die when K-mart started making the comeback? I'm glad I did't read this post ealier or I may have taken the advice. I bought 1000+ at .91.. today it closed at $1.23 and set to go higher... Anyone have opinions on how high it will go?

Tom, Actually, having an HDTV is the only way to make use of the progressive scan part of the dvd player. What happens is that the DVD player does the chore of converting the signal while it is still in the digital domain instead of running a standard interlaced output to the hdtv and then...

Erik, If you scroll down toward the bottom, you'll see that warranty is supplied through Denon and not a refurbishing company. My guess is that these units are coming from Denon, but if not, Denon must have faith in their refurbishing abilities in order to give a warranty. This being the...

Keith and Kevin, The price I was talking about was for a Ubid acution: http://www.ubid.com/actn/opn/getpage...tionId=6544315 With 76 available, I thought it had to be something as I described earlier. I have bought things from Ubid before that looked and operated like brand new, so I...

It looks like Denon is clearing out several of the 2800s that probably came back in due to required updates with the first round of problematic 2800s. I currently have a Yamaha handling the DVD duties, but it's not progressive, so I thought this might be a good time and price to move up to a...

Steve, I'm in about 3000 cubic feet and I haven't noticed the clipping light to come on, so I'm guess that I'm okay. I'll just look at that as "future proofing" in case I ever am in the situation of needing more.

You've got mail!

Okay, maybe one of you SVS guys can help me out here. It's been a few weeks, but maybe Ron or Tom remembers that I purchased an Ultra and a S700 amp from one of the fellows on this board so that he could go the upgrade path to dual CS+ and I'd get a little more "umph" from the Ultra vs. the...

Bob, I just finished shopping for a RPTV. I orginally bought a 43" Hitachi HDTV, but wasn't very happy with it. I went with only a 43", because I thought I would not have enough room for a bigger one and because my living room is wide, but short and I thought any bigger would be too big...

I was thinking about picking up one of the good deals on the Parasound 855 amp, but first thought I should ask around to see if I'm understanding things correctly. When bi-amping a speaker, are you effectively doubling the output to it and does bi-amping ever present a problem to the speaker...

Fire away Brian. I'm sure I'm not the only one that could benefit from them. Just visited your website. It looks like you do nice work on all your projects. Thanks in advance!

Brian, Yes, that's exactly what I was looking for if I go with an open design. Care to give the details on it such as required tools and total expense for materials? Oh.. I like those casters as well. Anyone else have picture of their DIY wooden rack, open or closed?

If you have built a rack other than a flexi-rack, I'd love to see pictures of it. I built a flexi, but it just wasn't as refined looking as I wanted.. plus, I was afraid of sliding components into the threads and scraping them. Surely someone has built a nice looking wood rack that they'd...
