Finally have worked about 95% of the kinks out of the home entertainment system. Margie and I watched Goldeneye <\/i>(one of our faves) as part of our Working Our Way Through the Bond Series. Having stereo was nice, and having the surround and subwoofer was pretty keen, too. I like.<\/p>\n
Remotes don’t work with either the Cable box or the Sony VCR, alas. Irritating.<\/p>\n
The wireless speakers we’re using for the surround tend to drop the signal with a dog-like “woof” when things get quiet on that channel. I need to perhaps boost the signal to them, to avoid that happening. <\/p>\n
