Sub output: Is it the woofer size or the rated RMS
This is the best lecture series I have ever had, and I have attended a few to get a Ph.D that made me prematurely bald in the process.I am no student of wave physics. I am only interested in fiddling with mammalian genes. But I wanted to learn mor... 
What to do, what to do.. oh God, what to do?
Pmcneil,Thanks. Advice taken and appreciated.Honest1:Years of sensible and frugal life will get you two systems, and then some, even if they are inexpensive by some people's means and not quality enough by others' taste.

Thanks a lot for your thoughts, folks. I ended up resetting the microprocessor and everything is fine now. But what an ordeal it's been. 
HDMI video signal but no audio

Denon AVR 2808 or Arcam AVR 300
You just saved my marriage, Ucmgr. I am going to turn my attention to another listing on the site: a Denon avr5800.The component is adequate for HD use since it is for use in a family room with cable. Mostly, I plan to use it for music.But unlike ...
