That is indeed ironic, and amusing.

Perhaps JohnK isn't aware that the FTC regulations from the late 60s through the 80s was overturned in the "deregulation," era. I know a lot of people who had no idea that the FTC no longer regulated watt ratings as they once did in the 70s.
Back to topic, I'm scared of buying any more Sherwood products. I recently found out that the R872 won't accept a 1080p signal! There is no way to just pass the Blu Ray signal through the receiver! How crazy is that?
I hear the R972 won't have the problem, but I still can't believe they sell the R872 crippled.

Being an attorney, I'm sure John is well aware of the issue.

JohnK is very scrupulous about knowing everything. It's kinda scary.

Herkemer, welcome, but you'd be even more welcome if you didn't come to us with incorrect information. The amplifier Rule of the FTC is still in effect as of December 18, 2008 in 16 CFR Part 432 . Furthermore, the Commission has placed it on its 2008 review schedule for comments relating to possible amendments(don't hold your breath). The Commission had proposed further rulemaking on this point several years ago but terminated the rulemaking procedure about a year ago without making amendments. So, among the "people who had no idea" about this is the FTC and also includes all the manufacturers who are required to comply with the Rule for units sold in the U.S. For example, yesterday I was studying the Onkyo 706 manual and noted that the specs include the full set of FTC required data points, identified as such.
