OT: Murphy's Law?

[Tony Hwang]

Hmmm, It seem to happen every holiday season. Major cause of expenditure occurs. This time it is Denon AVR 988 AV RX on my HT system. After a few years good service it is dying(burning smell). Good excuse.... Time to replace it w/ better, newer 3D, UHD handling unit and throw in a UHD monitor as a bonus. Time to break secret piggy bank, LOL! Better half just returned home from holiday shopping back home(in Seoul) Now my turn to shop... Busy tonight checking things out to decide, pick and choose.

Are we talking about an over the road vehicle, or what? I'm not sure what you mean. I am guessing it's a Automatic Vehicle Regulator, on a Automatic Vehicle, Recreational Exercise, on a High Traction system.

Now, you need a Ultra High Driving unit, with a Ultra High Driving monitor (steering control).

He's talking about his home theater system , dipstick .

[The Daring Dufas]

He was being fecesious. ^_^

TDD

[Stormin Mormon]

Be nice if he said so, brakepad.

[Stormin Mormon]

Oddly enough, I've never heard those terms. I simply do not know what one of them (whatever it was) is, or was.

It's Black Friday USA!

Grab your Glock and head on down to Walmart.

Some are not so easy to figure out. Denon AVR 988 AV RX on my HT Denon is a maker of electronics but it is not as mainstream known as Panasonic or Sony.

AVR can be Auto Vacuum Reservoir, or Active Ventricular Reader, but in this case it is Audio Video Receiver. The 988 is either the model number or the price he paid for it. AV RX seems redundant. HT. I'm not sure bit us probably High something. Probably High Testosterone as that is what you get when you crank up the volume of the AVR.

I'm probably 10 to 20 years older than Stormin' Moron and I know of Denon, AVR, and Hyper-Threading (without using Google or Wiki)...so there is really little excuse!

[Stormin Mormon]

Moron and I know of Denon, AVR, and Hyper-Threading (without using Google or Wiki)...so there is really little excuse!

My kingdom is not of this world. And certainly not of electronic gadgets.

[Stormin Mormon]

I've still got little clue what it is. Something electronic, but beyond that escapes me.

[Tony Hwang]

Yup, Same here. There is Wal Mart super center near by but they seldom have anything I want. I am looking at Anthem 2nd gen. MRX receivers. Smallest one weighs ~30 lbs. Looks like real deal.

[Tony Hwang]

Hi, Sorry, HT = Home theater, AVR 988 is model number AV RX = audio/video receiver. It has HD AM/FM tuner, networking ability, video 3 dimension TV handling, video upscaling(bringing up lower resolution upto 1080P HD and/or even newer Ultra HD, 2K/4K resolution) Can hook up speakers 5, 7,

9, even 11 plus separate sub woofer upto two. AVS forum is good place to learn all about this things.

[krw]

The one would guess that it would be a good place to ask about such things.

[krw]

No, no, no. It's Friday of Color!

We out for most of the day, here. No issues at all and not much traffic, even. Very nice and calm day. Nice lunch at a great Mexican restaurant, too. Didn't even pack. It's nice to live in civilization.

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

in the spirit of your nature to invest your social energy in spelling flames, see how long it takes you to find the grammar mistake you made

No issues at all and not much

[Malcom "Mal" Reynolds]

why would anyone buy a dipstick for their home theater?

[Snag]

Well duh , to check the oil !

[krw]

Why would any mother have a dipstick for a son, Malformed?

[krw]

Keep lying, Malformed. We all know you're a lefty but every once in a while a newb drops by,
