    M&M's Valentine Candy Box Ad

    Thanks for the link Chris. After watching it again... yeah, it just wasn't funny. *shrug*

    How do you convert the HT-challenged spouse?

    I kinda look at it this way... If she's not into it, she's not into it. It may be that she just doesn't understand that this is what you enjoy doing with your time. You might be able to make her understand and learn to enjoy it as well, but if that doesn't happen, I would just say "You have...

    M&M's Valentine Candy Box Ad

    I saw it too. Honestly... I didn't get it. And if I did, I just didn't think it was funny. *shrug*

    I just stopped in my local 6th Ave B&M. They're advertising the 2802 for $799. :laugh:

    Elliot> When I spoke to Chris at 6th Ave, he said it was sort of an online only deal, and that one would need to call to get it. It might be possible to have a store manager call to verify the price, but that may or may not work because of the "2 seperate entities" business they give you...

    Teeheehee, another Shockwave time waster!

    Is it just me, or does the bird look like he's umm, polishing the bishop, while he's operating his controller? :D

    Silver/Bronze Speaker Wire

    The Home Depot 12ga is the same way. It's like Neeraj said... it's so you can differentiate between the two so you can hook up the polarities correctly. Inside, it's still copper.

    Rodney> I'm sorry... I thought it was understood. :) It's a receiver. 6.1, 120Wx6, fairly high-end. Newcastle R-956 Full specs are available here. It is one model below Newcastle's top of the line.

    I haven't tried it yet with the 3802, but on my other AVR, it did not do video switching, so the S-video sources went through the S-vid output to the TV, and the component sources went through the component output to the TV. Most AVRs are this way. IOW, if you had your DVD and PS2 hooked up...

    Monster Power any good?

    Matt> I have to say that the HTS3500 IS solid and sturdy. But essentially, it's a huge power brick, so I can't see that there would be many places where they could skimp and make it flimsy.

    Interconnect/Subwoofer cable question

    Well, I've seen "interconnects" that are 1m, and "subwoofer cables" that are 1m, so I gather it's just marketing fluff to make you think you need one cable over another. Thanks for the info, guys. :)

    Interconnect/Subwoofer cable question

    Is there any practical difference between a cable designated as an "interconnect" and one designated as a "subwoofer cable"?

    I'm Looking for the best price on a Denon 3802

    Scott> Most companies are specific about who are authorized dealers. This prevents problems like those that sprout up from gray goods, and the like. If you're concerned with etronics being an authorized Pioneer dealer, ask Pioneer, and they'll tell you who their authorized resellers are.

    Monster Power any good?

    I have the HTS3500, and while it does make for a convenient way to localize all of the outlets, I didn't notice a significant difference between before I had it hooked up and after, whether it was video or audio. Of course, I haven't had the best setup hooked up to it so far. However, it...

    Interconnect/Subwoofer cable question

    I need to purchase a set of 5 interconnect cables to hook my amp up to my receiver. The best deal I've found on decent cables that fit my needs are sold in pairs. Since I only need 5 for the amp-receiver hookup, can I take the extra cable and use it to replace my current subwoofer cable, or...

    Other online auction sites other than eBay?

    If you're looking to buy, Ubid has a pretty sweet, but fairly limited selection. However, if they have what you want, you can get a great deal there. If you're looking to sell, look elsewhere.

    KLIPSCH speakers

    A note on the Klipsch warranty... I got my Klipsch's from Ubid, and one came in seriously banged up. Looked like it'd been dropped, with 2 corners splintered and the grille sheared clean off, snapping off several pegs. After going back and forth with Klipsch and Ubid for a while, Klipsch...

    I called this morning, and mine will be here tomorrow. I spoke to Chris at x.509, as suggested by Rodon, and he gave me free shipping without my having to ask. Also had a nice conversation with him about my setup and such.
