Progressive Scan? Need Advice
You won't see any advantage from progressive output unless your TV takes 480p ie is HD (truly SD) compatable. Otherwise you will only see the difference between the S-video or component outs... whichever you use. 
To ship or not to ship during the Holidays???

To ship or not to ship during the Holidays???
This isn't a question of WHO to ship with, those where only examples. I think the rush of packages happens to everyone!(Even Fed Ex!) 
TIVO and Ultimate TV. Any recommendations?
You'll find the Replay systems are better, and don't require a monthly fee...though the price accounts for that. They also have much better seach features than the TiVO. I've had a Replay for two years, and can't imagine living without it, it's th... 
Audiophile novice needs your expert opinion
John, I had a similar problems with Acurus amps (A250 and a 200x3)... it's a ground problem. I managed to solve it by running ground lines from every component to the screw in the outlet the components were plugged into... It seems the cable wire ... 
Isn't this a site dedicated to audio/video
This is especially funny as I've been seeing adds all over for the Xbox and Game Cube. I just got back from the mall and saw them for sale there, no shortage at all!!! I feel sorry for the fools who pay over retail for these! 
Best city between these two?
I disagree, I live in Clearwater, FL, in the Tampa St Pete area, it's pretty good, especially for shopping, sorry, pretty weak for stereos, those the reason I visit this site so much. I grew up outside of NYC and have lived in Atlanta, there's eno... 
Power strip manufacturers?
Wiremold makes hospital grade power strips in almost any size you could need, sounds like exactly what you want. 
What are you doing with your tax return?
Since I'm single, I'll only answer once.1) Sony DV9000ES....progressive DVD/SACD-likely sell my Pioneer Elite DV-09 for it so that really won't take a refund.2) A Mitsubishi RPHDTV-they're the only folks offering to gaurantee future compatability....

help need choosing betweewn Aragon 8008st/ bb
Having owned both KEF speaker (107.2's) and Aragon stuff (24K pre/4004 MkII) I can tell you that I didn't like them together. Both are fairly bright, together they were fatiging. I tried different cables to tone it down, but it still was harsh in ... 
What direction should the cable go??????

power cords for linn ikemi ?
Haven't (yet) tried any different power cords, but would suspect they'd do fine with this piece.I just added one to my living room system, and spoke with Willie @ Linn in Jacksonville, FL. He told me that he felt power cords unnecessary, the unit ... 
Making cables pretty
Cables are pretty!!!Don't cover them!!!Then again, some of you are married and need to worry about the WAF... For me if the girlfriend doesn't like it, TOUGH! It's my place! God, being single really has it's merits sometimes! 
Best Speaker under 31 inches tall
I'm intrigued.........Why would you ever need/want to put a speaker on top of a refridgerator?? If you do, should you worry about shielding?? Vibration?? I guess not, thus why the prior responses are so cynical!
