    Sony SAWM40 in Canada

    Audio cables pick up electrical interference and cause the "hum". You need a shielded cable, but rg6 video cable works fine. You can buy rca to 75ohm adapters almost anywhere. Same cable as you use for sat or cable connections.

    Looking at Receivers - here is a comparison chart

    I have the Yamaha RX-V620, which is the previous model to the 630 in your list. The 620 has 100 watts output and the newer 630 has 75 watts. I am suprised that Yamaha has dowgraded there output on these newer models, but I checked my Yamaha catalog and your list is correct.

    Ebay-the way to go?

    Return policies are up the the individual seller. But it should be noted that no seller will pay return shipping, which is usually high on speakers. I buy a lot off of eBay and like the previous poster, only buy from sellers that have good ratings.
