    Marantz receiver service claim denied

    Purchased as refurbished unit from A4L. I called A4L who told me to call Marantz but that everything should be covered under warranty as A4L is authorized Marantz dealer. Marantz had me call United Radio who finally got back to me with the rejection. I'll try all 3 companies again...

    Marantz receiver service claim denied

    Hey, all. I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum, so feel free to correct me and I'll adjust accordingly. I bought a Marantz SR5008 receiver from Accessories4Less on their Black Friday sale. It worked great for a few months, then started throwing a lot of white noise across all...

    Boards other than Intel DP67BG at around $150 USD?

    I've been out of the PC hardware loop for a while. I'm able to purchase the Intel holiday bundle for retail employees. The bundled board, DP67BG, is worth about $150 in the context of the Intel bundle. I'm contemplating purchasing a motherboard separately, so, at the $150 or below...

    Acer Iconia tablet Best Buy $243 w/tax + $10 gift card

    I have the Iconia and would recommend it. Having owned an Iconia for several months now: IMHO, the screen can be too bright for night time reading in the dark. It's got a great resolution, looks sharp, etc., but it's just too bright at the lowest setting. I ended up placing a protective...

    BF3 Server list no pings

    It's due to browser security settings and how Battlelog is implemented. They will be changing this in the future. If you want to see ping, you can add Battlelog to your list of "approved" sites or whatnot, or you can downgrade your security settings (not advised). Or you can wait...

    BF3 MP Crashing

    While Origin and the terribad Battlelog have a lot to do with this, it will get better! I've been playing Battlefield games for years. This is just typical, week 1 type stuff for a new Battlefield game. Relax, they'll get it together.

    DIR-655 replacement -- NAT size question, Torrents, etc.

    Hey, [H]orde. I need to replace my DIR 655. It is dropping connections with some degree of regularity now. I've tried changing channels, but at this point, I suspect the router is dying of old age. Back when I purchased it, that was a highly recommended router due to many of the...

    Staples $100 off any* tablet - valid through 7/30/2011

    My local Staples was completely sold out of all applicable tablets, but THEY suggested that I order on kiosk, have it shipped to the store, then pay at register with discount. No problems at Salem, NH. I went with the Iconia for the mini HDMI and USB functionality.

    Xoom -- 3.2, price drop. Buy?

    Hey, gang. Just looking for some opinions on the Xoom now that Android 3.2 is out, and the Xoom underwent a price reduction. In light of the changes in the marketplace, do you think the Xoom is the "it" tablet over the Iconia, Transformer, Thrive, etc.? If not, why? I'm looking for...

    What Tau Sounds Like

    He doesn't explain it well, but for a quick bit of dumbed-down theory, the 9th note is the same as the second note, it's just an octave up. So, 2 = 9 4 = 11 6 = 13 When you see something like Cadd9, it's C(1) E(3) G(5) D(9).

    Thin gaming keyboard (similar to Logitech Illuminated)?

    I've been using the Arctosa for a few weeks now. It's definitely thicker than the Logitech Illuminated keyboard, but not uncomfortably so. No illuminated keys (but that doesn't mater, I do everything by feel). No noticable ghosting for me. I removed the built in wristrest via removing...

    APB: Reloaded Open Beta

    1. Customization -- actual, a lot of the "customized" people are non-premium players too. You can have 25 layers per symbol, I believe. So if you plan ahead, you can map out your patterns and symbols quite easily. 2. Matchmaking -- it's not about rank. It's about THREAT LEVEL. There...

    APB: Reloaded Open Beta

    You are doing it wrong. All guns have an effective range -- OCA/Colby and shotguns rule CQC. Assault rifles tend to work better at medium range. Sniper rifles better at long range. LMG are more anti-vehicle, etc. You need to learn the strengths and weaknesses of the weapons, plus...

    Thin gaming keyboard (similar to Logitech Illuminated)?

    Hey, all. I am looking for a new gaming keyboard. I picked up a Logitech Illuminated for my home office, and I LOVE the feel of it... but it has ghosting issues. The major thing I love about the Illuminated is that it is thin! Sits very flat on my desk. Does anyone know of any...
