There is nothing like slamming your head against a wall for the entire day…

I’m going to have to send this damn receiver back. I think it is literally possessed by the devil. I’ve checked it, rechecked it, re-rechecked it. re-re-re… you get the point. I think Clint summed it up best when he said – “I don’t think I could make a receiver do that if I tried.” We’re not talking “oh that’s weird,” we’re taking “run and get an old priest and a young priest.” Something is definitely wrong with this thing. So I’m 99% sure it is going to have to go back. Which means all the time I spent swapping out wires and all that… wasted. Completely wasted. On top of that, If I ever want to watch a movie again, I’ll have to hook up the old receiver which is another 2+ hours of work (my cable management skills suck). And yes, I’ve been noticeably reticent to mention details just in case it is a boneheaded error on my part (completely within the realm of possibility though I don’t know how). If it turns out I’m right… well, you’ll read about it in the review. I swear, I ALWAYS get the f-ed up equipment. I’m like a magnet for broken stuff.
