So what's your point? 'Not here to quibble over minor things. It's going
to Drake, end of discussion!



So the discussion ends with the question, but before the answer.

Nicely done.

But that's still Drake.

Not to put an eye out, or anything, but...here's a surprise...that is
a Canadian company.

I just had my R8 in for a checkup(I bought it used recently) and the
receiver
has a pop in the speaker when turning it on.
The tecky says this is normal with all R8's. Is this true? I think
not.
He also said the alignment is A1...can I believe him now? !@#$%
Sometime it even emits a short duration and diminishing in volume,
bronx
cheer when turned on.
Anyone experienced this with their set?
Saw your post earlier today on the Yahoo group and I tried mine out
and no pop
here, nor bronx cheer.

Where did you have yours serviced?
