I (and this is just me) would not buy a Kenwood. I would buy Onkyo, Denon, Yamaha, or Harman Kardon. These are more expensive, but I think better than Sony, Kenwood, JVC, Technics, and Pioneer. The Onkyo 696 is a great receiver. And I know you can beat the Crutchfield price. The sites I would check out are onecall.com, soundcity.com, jandr.com, hifi.com. You also need to look at audioreview.com. You can see other peoples opinions of products they have actually purchased. It is a great site. They will also indicate where they purchased the equipment and how much they paid. On those sites to buy that I mentioned, you need to call and talk to someone. They will give you a better price than advertised on the internet. Give me a call @ 713-853-9573. I leave for Chicago later this afternoon.

Subject: What's up? Darron, What's going on? How are Kristi and the kids? How is that Mustang running? Hey, I finally got the Tahoe. Still trying to sell the TA..interested? Just kidding. Hey, I am starting to look at receivers and had a question or two (I got the latest Crutchfield Magazine - what website did Scott use to order his stuff??) How important is THX Select/Ultra? Onkyo has a couple of receivers (TX-DS595 and TX-DS696 for $500 and $800) that have Dolby Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic II, and 0.08% THD at 75watts X 5 and 0.08% THD at 100 watts X 5 (both 20 - 20 khz), but are not THX Select. If you want THX Select on an Onkyo, you are looking at prices of $1000 and up. Kenwood has a new one (VR-510) that has THX Select, Dolby Digital, DTS and Pro Logic II, but it has 0.7% THD at 110watts X 5 (20-20khz). Crutchfield has it at $600. Is the 0.7% THD too high? I read an article that said you should try to keep it below 0.1%. > -----Original Message----- > From: Darron.C.Giron@enron.com [SMTP:Darron.C.Giron@enron.com] > Sent: Monday, October 30, 2000 12:53 PM > To: dgiron1@pdq.net; kristi.giron@cfisd.net; hollyw@email.msn.com; > Dawn.C.Kenne@enron.com; scott.t.crowell@us.cgeyc.com; > smmayers@earthlink.net; cgiron@mindspring.com; mark.ebert@broadwing.com; > mike.fultz@halliburton.com; mrichter@us.ibm.com; kwpope@pdq.net > Subject: FW: For you professional drinkers!! > > > ---------------------- Forwarded by Darron C Giron/HOU/ECT on 10/30/2000 > 12:46 PM --------------------------- > > > (Embedded Enron North America Corp. > image moved > to file: From: B Scott Palmer > pic06868.pcx) 10/30/2000 12:22 PM > > > > > > > To: Kam Keiser/HOU/ECT@ECT, Phillip M Love/HOU/ECT@ECT, Darron C > Giron/HOU/ECT@ECT, Jennifer Bagwell/NA/Enron@ENRON, Jackson > Logan/HOU/ECT@ECT, Victor Guggenheim/HOU/ECT@ECT, Dawn C > Kenne/HOU/ECT@ECT > cc: > Subject: FW: For you professional drinkers!! > > This is sweet. > ---------------------- Forwarded by B Scott Palmer/HOU/ECT on 10/30/2000 > 12:19 PM --------------------------- > > > (Embedded Enron North America Corp. > image moved > to file: From: B Scott Palmer > pic25547.pcx) 06/13/2000 10:39 AM > > > > > > > To: B Scott Palmer/HOU/ECT@ECT > cc: > Subject: FW: For you professional drinkers!! > > > ---------------------- Forwarded by B Scott Palmer/HOU/ECT on 06/13/2000 > 10:38 AM --------------------------- > > > (Embedded Enron North America Corp. > image moved > to file: From: Rebecca S Mize > pic27644.pcx) 07/21/99 04:22 PM > > > > > > > To: Jessica V Moreno/HOU/ECT@ECT, Kathryn Cordes/HOU/ECT@ECT, B Scott > Palmer/HOU/ECT@ECT, Dianne J Swiber/HOU/ECT@ECT, Stephanie > Sever/HOU/ECT@ECT > cc: > Subject: FW: For you professional drinkers!! > > > ---------------------- Forwarded by Rebecca S Mize/HOU/ECT on 07/21/99 > 04:21 PM --------------------------- > > > (Embedded Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp. > image moved > to file: From: "Mize, Jeffrey N." > pic32662.pcx) > 07/21/99 12:19 PM > > > > > > > To: "'Carla Homer'" , "Bell, Carole" > , "Johnson, Jana B." > , > "'Jimbo Chambers'" , "Boysen, Karl" > , "Swift, Lauren" , > "Kowis, Lisa R." , "Rhame, Liz" > , "'Michelle Birsinger'" , > "Peikert, Quintin W." , Rebecca S > Mize/HOU/ECT, "'David Grissom'" > cc: > Subject: FW: For you professional drinkers!! > > > > Here's something useful. > > > <<100pr.exe>> << File: 100pr.exe >> << File: pic06868.pcx >> << File: > pic25547.pcx >> << File: pic27644.pcx >> << File: pic32662.pcx >>
