    Swan 200MKii's with blown amp

    That should be really easy to replace. Its easy when the legs of the chip go though the circuit board like that. As long as the amp burning up didn't damage anything else you should be fine.

    Bad Ass Speakers

    Monoprice has two 5.1 speaker sets, one is around $100 and the other hovers around 200. The 200 has won several awards and the 100 isn't bad either. There are several sites that sell 5.1 receivers that are refurbished for less than 200 some close to 100.

    Crack or Scratch?

    That's good. I repair TVs for a living and Sony is one of the hardest to work with. My company is going to stop selling them because they don't even want to provide us with parts anymore. I use to work for sharp refurbishing their 80" and 90" tv's. If the scratch was on the upper surface of the...

    Crack or Scratch?

    An internal defect is going to be hard to prove. Most people at retail don't know what they are looking at. If it was a crack or something like that the screen wouldn't be working in the area around the crack. So don't worry about that. You are kind of sol when it comes to getting them to take...

    Crack or Scratch?

    Its a scratch on the polarizer. Its a layer of plastic film on top of the glass. Sometimes you can get them off with a little bit of auto scratch remover. Just apply a little bit of it to a piece of disposable shop cloth and gently rub the scratch. Then clean the area off. As long as it isn't...

    Sennheiser PC 360 G4ME vs HD 598+mic

    I second what Zangmonkey said. Get some techflex and wrap the cables together. Then you don't have to worry about the cable.

    Recon3D Fatality Professional/Champion Reviews??

    I would say yes OpenAL is using hardware based on that info, but again maybe Creative wrote their OpenAL drivers to report hardware acceleration when its just offloading it to the cpu. That would be very tricky almost to the point of them being downright dishonest.

    Bose companion 3 vs companion 5

    I know overall everybody dislikes Bose, but he didn't ask for suggestions on new non-Bose speakers. He asked which companion series speakers do what he wanted. He doesn't want to rebuild his whole setup. He just wants to add to it.

    Bose companion 3 vs companion 5

    Well you probably will get a little more bass from the BC 5's but I don't know about overall loudness. The BC 5's really don't sound any better then the BC 3's unless you actually use the usb input. When using the aux input it will sound about the same as the BC 3's.

    I have to agree with the RE0. I don't own them but I have heard them and they do sound really great.
