Remote control codes?
Remeber Marine, sometimes you have to do a tactical retreat, regroup, reorginize and hit the objective from another way. Easy doesn't mean you cheated or the situation beat you. It doesn't matter how you take the objective, just that you take it. ... 
Remote control codes?
I had the same problem, I first started with the cheap learning remotes you find at Kmart, walmart,ect, ect......they could only learn the newer epuipment codes. None of them would learn the codes for my dbx DX-5 CD player. I did like you'll proba... 
Do You Remember Your First CD Player?
Yep, I remember it, because I still have it. It's a DBX DX-5 single disc player. I picked it up some time in the 80's while stationed in the germany. 
What is the warmest receiver...
I guess if you compare FM radio to CD's, DVD-A, SACD, or LP's, then Ya, it's crap. But I don't know any one how sits down and does some critical listening to FM radio like they would with the other forms of music. I personely use FM radio as back ... 
Las Vegas
Hey Pmrodier, How did the in home demo go? I'm sorry I couldn't make it. All work and no play makes rick a dull boy. I was lucky enough to get one day in at the CES. The only bad thing about the CES is it leaves you feeling a little depressed abou... 
What is the warmest receiver...
You might look into Marantz receivers. The 300 series, to many problems with the 400 series. They are very musical/warm. 
If you couldn't get Vandersteen speaker's

CES 2004 Best of Show
Theil, as always, was one of my favorites. they never fail to have an excellent H/T demonstration, as well as 2 ch music. This was the first time I ever heard the Totem acoustic Forrest. maybe it was just the music or the fact that I'd been walkin... 
CES is almost upon us.
Peter S, Will you be compiling a list of attendee's cell phone number's again for an A-gon cocktail hour ( or two)? It was you who did it this year wasn't it? 
Is this possible?
If your going to be shelling out big buck's, I would make sure he's CEDIA certified. Do a search for CEDIA to learn a little more about the association. It's basically a custom installer association. I'd say you have a better chance of getting wha... 
Which receivers have decent stereo performance?
I would go with a Marantz or a denon. both are pretty good at music. A friend of mine have almost the same system set up, I have a Yamaha RX-V800, and he has a Marantz 7300. his sounds much better for music 
Favorite Movie Soundtrack
My two favorite movie sound tracks are 'The Commitments " and " From dusk till dawn". The both make you want to dance, just in different ways. 
what are you listening to lately?
Jazz, lot's and lot's of jazz. Diana Krall, The Rippingtons, Fatburger, Candy duffler, and Prafoul(?). I went from Metallica and Rage against the machine to Jazz, Go figure.
