Matt34 Moderator Jul 21, 2005 6,574 0 113 Aug 8, 2007 #1 Spent most of the morning hooking up the new Xbox, second sub, monoprice component switcher and then calibrating with the SMS-1. Everything went smoothly and having the 2nd sub nearfield, right behind the couch, in the opposite corner got rid of the nasty dip I had at 60hz. I got all the wiring cleaned up and then dusted and vacuum the room in preparation for the beating I was undoubtedly going to receive at the hands of some 12yr old during a session of Gears of War, when I went to take the Harmony 880 out of the cradle I got nothing but a blank screen. After trouble shooting the well known issues they have had it seems I've fell victim to the cradle seating problem. I called up Logitech and after verifying my identity through DNA screening they gave me a reference number and have a new cradle on the way. Lucky for me I have a Harmony 520 just sitting in a drawer, now to get everything programed in on the temp remote.

I wasn't entirely impressed with the Harmony remote, but it did a pretty decent job of getting about 90% of everything programmed for me.
