I feel fortunate to have one of the most responsible kids on the planet -- at least when it comes to taking proper care of electronics. (If only he were that responsible with his homework.)
He knows his way around the business end of a modern AV receiver. Being young and wiry comes in handy when you're plugging and unplugging components in tight places. He knows as much about putting a system together as your average Best Buy employee. Okay, make that MORE. :o)
And yes, I'll admit that having his own Tivo may be a bit of wretched excess. But it only has one, not both, of the tuners hooked up. That's where I draw the line.
Still, you haven't lived until you've played Smash Brothers in full surround with the sub blasting.
System edited: Looking to upgrade aging 60 inch Sony rptv to high def. Son is reluctant to give up tv for anything smaller. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
System edited: Recent changes to my Main system left me with a 60 inch Sony rptv to either sell or keep. I KNOW which way my son would like me to go, but I'm afraid a 60 inch tv is wretched excess for a 9 year old kid. Still, he does have a birthday coming up soon... ;o)
