I want to stick my (wire in plastic, not bunny ears) dipole FM antenna to the back of my TV. Keep it out of sight nah.

Can that damage my TV in any way?

Only if u drill holes into the tv to screw the antenna ends down

You mite get some interference from the Tv through the antenna though.

If not then use some mounting tape and regular clear scotch tape to stick it down.

[Humes]

Thanks. It's the interference I was wondering about.

Now that I think about it, I can stick it to the wall behind the TV (doh!)...

my denon avr 3300 is producing no sound! yes i'm aware that its a 1999 model and electronics do go bad, but i practically never use it and take good care of all my system components.

i've read online that a common problem is the DSP board needing repair ($500-800US!!) but it seems to have all ICs and other wiring intact after i opened the cover last night.

i get power, video source selection, just no sound...through any source, even the radio tuner.

anyone know any Denon certified techs locally i can have check it out?
it's too late to get a new one and have it reach in time for holiday use, i was thinking, maybe have it looked at and repaired just for use this holiday.

if anyone knows of someone or an establishment that can assist, gimme a call/txt please!

awesome, waiting to see their work!

[jehusaunders]

quick question guys. I have a rca stereo that I connect all rca inputs into. There is a left and right front. Left and right surround sound. And a lfe sub woofer jack. Can I add a centre speaker by bridging the front output channels? Or is my current system unchangeable? Thanks

AFAIK Its not a 5.1 system, so even If you get the signal from both left and right front channels playing through 1 speaker, It wont be a true center channel.
Best keep with the 4.1 setup. The receiver wont recognize 5.1 input anyway.

Here are some pics of the completed installation (one small piece needs to be redone)
I only uploaded a few colors. but They go: white, blue, red, green, yellow, purple, orange, teal/aqua
the under cabinet light is pure white and very bright. (all pics were taken with no flash and all other lights turned off.) the quality sux, but when Flash is turned on, it washes out the LEDs.
Its a bit clubbish, not practical for any sort of everyday use, but the white on the ceiling works nice on a day to day basis

The light strip is installed on the top side of that beam and does a good job for simple, soft lighting

[Soundwave]

farva goh use the green light while bulling some woman so he could pretend he's the incredible hulk...

[rodfarva]

Agreed. Pics were taken at the highest brightness setting (or it would be too dark to photograph without flash)
But the brightness is fully adjustable.
