Hey all! I have a bunch of stuff that has been waiting for me to be motivated to sell, and I suppose that time is now. To keep things simple for everyone, all of the things I am selling I will just give an my asking price that will also hopefully cover my shipping and I am not going to worry about PayPal fees. I will try to ask more than fair prices, so please PM me if you are interested.
-------------------------------------
First, I have a HT Omega Claro+ Audiophile PCI sound card. This is one of the highest rated sound cards on
Newegg, which is definitely saying something. It will work great with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or 7 (both 32 and 64 bit versions of Vista and 7).
I will let you check out the Newegg site or the
manufacturer site for all the specs, but I must say, I have had
lots of sound cards and this is far and above any others. If you have any sort of system hooked up to your PC onboard sound, I would highly recommend a discrete sound card - the difference will be like night and day!
It has discrete outputs for 7.1 as well as digital optical in and out and coaxial output. It will also encode DTS or Dolby Digital on the fly to output digitally for sources like games that have 5.1 sound that isn't encoded.
I would say it is in "like new" 9.99/10 condition so I would like to get
$125 shipped. It will ship in the original box with all original accessories including an optical cable, software (always download the latest version from the manufacturer's website), and manual. I am selling it because I built a new computer and didn't have a legacy PCI slot for it.
-------------------------------------
Next I've got a
Logitech DiNovo Mini Keyboard. This is a great mini Bluetooth keyboard for a media center/HTPC. It will also work with the PS3. I was looking for a keyboard that was compact and had mouse functionality.
The keyboard is awesome, and I especially like the backlighting and dedicated media controls, as well as the sleek, compact look. It has an excellent range. I have used it probably at a distance of 100 feet and it worked perfectly (YMMV, of course). The multifunction touchpad can be a finnicky, due to its small size. I also have to note that this particular device, on very rare occasion, will have difficulty connecting to the PC. This is apparently a widespread issue for people with this keyboard, but it is easily fixed by popping the battery out and then back in.
It includes everything that it did originally, including a microfiber cloth for cleaning fingerprints off of the shiny surface, lithium ion battery, and charger.
I would rate the condition as 7/10 because the shiny surface scratches easier than a matte surface was, and because of the things I discussed above. The cleaning cloth is kind of stiff - it didn't wash in the laundry very well. I would like to get
$65 shipped for this.
-------------------------------------
The
Logitech MX
Air is awesome. It works kind of like a extra-accurate Wii-mote for your HTPC. It also has a multifunction touch/click scroll bar and media buttons and it is backlit.
The battery is built in, and is charged by setting the mouse in its base station. I never had a single problem with it and I used it at a range of up to about 25 feet and it worked perfectly.
I would rate the condition as 9/10. It does have a shiny surface but I couldn't see any scratches. Again, everything is included as new in the original box. I would like to get
$85 shipped for this.
-------------------------------------
Next, I have an PowerColor ATI/AMD
Radeon HD 5750. It is a great card that can bitstream DTS-HD MA and DolbyTrueHD HD audio. It is a great HTPC card because it has a nearly-silent fan, and I am very picky about fan noise. I am selling it because I am a nerd who upgrades too much

.
It is in perfect (9.99/10) condition and even though I don't have the box in the pic (it is currently in the attic), I will ship it in the original box. Lets say
$85 shipped.
-------------------------------------
Next I have two ATI Remote Wonder ("Plus" on top, "Original" on bottom) RF remotes from back in the day when I had an HTPC before anyone even knew what an HTPC was
![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
.
They have a pretty good range. I used to control Winamp piped to my garage from my PC with these (50 feet or so), as well as other media functions and movies when my PC was my TV/DVD/etc machine way back in the college dorm room. The round button works as a pretty decent mouse as well. They stopped driver support for these after Windows XP. They may work with newer OS's (there are a few forums that discuss using them in Vista and 7), but I can't guarantee anything.
I haven't used them forever, but last I did, both worked great. The "Plus" condition is 9/10, the original has a few scratches: 7/10. I just have what's pictured - drivers can still be downloaded
online. Take your pick,
$8 shipped for "Original" and $10 shipped for "Plus".
I have a few more things but I have maxed out my pictures for this post.
