I was pretty brand new to this and way more stupid than I am now (did I just say that?).

I was running speaker set up through the Onk and had my cables connected to an external amp for a 5.2 set up but two cables were connected to the AVR (the rear surround) and not connected to anything else. As the AVR went through its paces and came to the rears, it could not complete the signal, so it defaulted to the side surrounds. I thought, that's weird, I'll just run it again, only this time I could actually hear the AVR say, "Okay dumb a$$, check this out", to which my reply was...OH NOOO the magic blue smoke I'd heard about.

That was back in 2010 with my first set up, valuable lesson learned. Since then, it's been research research research before I do anything or make changes.

I may not be a smart man, but I know what magic smoke is....
Of course you would...

Place I ate last evening was playing only 80s music. Hall & Oates is stuck in my head. :-(
I've tried to have them change to Deep Tracks or Classic Vinyl.

When I am doing testing on mics at the stores and I have my speaker tester at the headend, I place my iphone at the mic and play stuff like this....even if you don't know the words, the tunes stick in your head.

Employees and managers crack up, and later tell me they can't get the tunes out of their heads.
