Hello, I just put together my first home theater system (F-1's, C-1, S-1's, SW-10D & Harman Kardon AVR-247; working on a budget, be nice []) and I had a question about mounting my rear speakers. With the odd layout of the room everything is going in, speaker stands are practically out of the question which leaves mounting the speakers. My question is; when mounting these, if I do not want to use the 1 screw hole on the speaker and would like to use my own mounts, can I drill into the wooden cabinet of the speaker and will it cause me to lose any quality? I need to be able to get the speakers out from the wall so I can get tham at about a 45 degree angle with the wall, and angled downwards roughly 15 degrees and without having to spend tons of money on speaker mounts I figured I'd get some nice cheap flat panel mounts that will let me do that, but it would require me drilling into the cabinet. Any input will be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I just got the RW-10d sub and right out of the box when I plugged it in the screen will only show a series of squares. It won't let me do anything and there is no response from the sub whatsoever. Is there something that I'm missing here? I've checked and rechecked all my connections over and over and nothing is plugged in wrong. I've tried three different outlets and a powercenter, I've tried plugging it in with no audio in and trying it with only the L then only the R audio in and still nothing. I have a brand new Harman Kardon 247 receiver and I've never had another sub hooked into it nor do I have a sub to test it out to make sure that the sub output is working, but since I get the screen with only squares all over it even without an audio in hooked up I image it's something with the subwoofer. I'm at a complete loss here. If anyone has any advice at all I'd be extremely happy. I'm also going to try calling Klipsch here in a minute to see if they have any ideas. I just really want to avoid having to make an exchange since that will probably take the better part of 2-3 weeks.
