Henry, local sources such as Home Depot or Lowes can certainly relieve your frustration. Enjoy.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

But it was attached with glue made in India, by a guy from Viet Nam.

My speaker wire is still on a UPS truck.
The tracker says it will be here tomorrow.

I ran the M80s off my Pioneer receiver because I don't have the power amp mounted up yet. I was worried that the Pioneer would struggle since it is rated only down to 6 ohms. But I cranked it up to 0dB and could not hear any problems at all. On the contrary, it sounds freakin' awesome! Mostly thanks to the speakers, no doubt.

My room is big (4400 cu.ft.) and I could do with a few dB than what the Pioneer maxes out at. So this weekend I will put that Behringer online and see how it sounds.
