Well, I had planned to "re-setup" my system, wall mount the TV, and get the new VP160 set up this weekend.

Unfortunately, what started as a stiff neck Thursday morning ended up becoming a pinched nerve issue. I've been on Flexeril and getting nothing done....neither for the HT setup nor the editing and other work I was supposed to wrap up (my customers were kind and understanding).

I haven't had any new spasms since late last night, but am staying on the Flexeril again today to be sure it all settles down.

Still having a vivid memory of the neck spasms, I don't picture doing anything in the workshop nor wall mounting that 55" TV.

Besides, I bought a used amp from someone here, and that doesn't arrive till Monday. I might as well wait for it to arrive before tearing everything apart and re-setting it up.

The thought of positioning that amp makes my neck cringe a bit too!

In short: Sorry. The promised review of the 160 will have to wait! frown

Man it seems like once a year I get a pinched nerve in my neck and it incapacitates me for a week. I feel you pain.

I used to know a girl we nickname "Flex". Exchange her for the drug in your sentence above and trust me, you still would be getting nothing done.

Try to enjoy being forced into relax mode and get better soon!

I don't know where Kangamungus is but that is definitely the coolest word I have heard in a very long time.

Thanks, Murph! I've been off the Flexeril for a few days, though my neck / shoulders are still very tight and sore!

I'm hoping to get the VP160 and new amp installed this weekend, since it didn't happen last weekend!
