    Suddenly Need a New A/V Receiver.

    UPDATE. The AVR is here. It arrived on Saturday so with the Super Bowl preparations and subsequent hangover, all I was able to do was to check the serial number to make sure it was above 60000. It was, so no worries about the Denon HDMI plug issue. Then I quickly hooked up the cassette player...
