    Yamaha RX-V4600 Home Theater Receiver

    I thought it was steep too until you realize that the 2500 was released with a list price of 1099US and it is not uncommon to find them for 800 Canadian or cheaper since they are like 699 US or something... I have a feeling that we will be able to get it for 1800 Canadian with the price going...

    Two positive experiences thanks to this forum

    I saw a house the other day that had the worst in roof speakers possible, the volume control in the rooms was fan speed controllers. The funny thing was it wasn't 12, 14, or 16 gauge wire. It was the thickest copper speaker wire I have ever seen. I'm not sure what gauge it is but it is at...

    Power Conditioning and UPS

    I was doing some research into that APC equipment (someone tell me if i'm wrong) but it looks like you pay 1500 dollars for the S15 or 1500 for the S10 (you don't use both) and then it almost looks like for every SBAT (UPS) that you add into the array you spend another 1500???? Does anyone...

    Need advice about Crestron

    Wow!! thank you very much for the extended reply.... after more review I have determined that I will likely be choosing an Infocus 7210 projector and a fixed wall screen with some wood finishing around it etc. I noticed you use the ML-500s for video in a few rooms and when you get a chance...

    re:VCR HELP

    the vcr answer is that it is unlikely... others have said that it will let you record and watch at the same time however this is only true if it has a dual tuner... mine does however my neighbors doesnt so thats something to check.
