Haha, glad to offer some mystery smile I apologize for using you guys as a resource. It's just so tempting when I have some a wealth of knowledge here!

I do have some fun stories from my years of doing this kind of work. I also have some mildly depressing ones, like the email I received from a client today. Here's the gist: I got a message on my computer saying I needed to call this number, so I did. I let them into my computer and they showed me all these problems. They said I should sign up for ongoing support from them, which I negotiated down to $450.

I'm going out to her home on Monday morning to remove whatever stuff these vultures put on her computer.


Anyway, I think the combo 3.1/2.1 system is correct. It's also stupid. I don't know why anyone installs one of these things. Most receivers aren't going to understand this wiring setup. As far as it thinks, there is no sub in this system.
