So, here I am waiting for the iPhone, and my AV receiver dies. :frowning:
Cool! Time to get a new receiver!!
It's a Sony STR-DA333es, c. 1998. I already fixed it once. Anyway, I'm planning on getting something very Apple-like - Yamaha's YSP-800 digital sound projector, and matching subwoofer the FSW-100, both in black. Slim, clever design. I've been reviewing the comments about it online about room dimensions, etc., so I fired up some 3D software I have, Live Interior 3D, for the Mac (hence my posting here), and created the attached pic. Pretty cool, actually.
It's neat software - if you like to make images like this one, check it out. http://www.belightsoft.com/products/...r/overview.php
I should add that being without TV for the last few days has freed up a lot of time. I've canceled HBO/Cinemax (besides, the Sopranos are over....and I say Tony's dead!), and I'm also considering scaling back on the HT effort and just getting Apple's HiFi. It sounds great, but stereo only. Or, getting the YSP-800 and dropping Satellite, in favor of movies. I'm having a mid-theater crisis!
