Canada shipping is like china on my end of receiving things, some times three to five days, sometimes two weeks!
My experience here in Toronto has been the exact opposite. I have a DAC coming from CA and it disappeared in the USPS tracking system. It popped up Friday just outside Toronto and has been updated 4 times since then using Canada post tracking.
Time frame has been about the same as yours Earl, it was sent March 13 and should be at my place Tuesday < according to CP tracking.

The American sniper movie you saw was not HD it was a dvd screener readily available for download (not legal)
I'm just trying to learn and dont have a clue on the legalities of this so if someone downloads it they could get in trouble?
Torrent download you keep of copyrighted material is illigal . What this box does is direct stream from a website. No problems

Well, 'technically' it isn't being downloaded. It's being streamed. You aren't saving it to a hard drive, or to the cloud, or anything. I'm not a lawyer so I am not going to parse the legal elements, just pointing out the difference between downloading and streaming.
You can set up favorites fro channels in each App. Ice films and 1channel are good for basic stuff.

IPTV, the new 'cable' coming soon

What's the make and model of the box?, There are a ton of these on the market now. Sounds like it's on an android platform. It's all about the processort speed in the box or it buffers too much with HD. The American sniper movie you saw was not HD it was a dvd screener readily available for download (not legal). There no true HD copies of it out yet in the torrent world.
I have a jailbroken ATV2 with XBMC, need to update to KODI which I heard it easier to navigate through.-

Love the last line!
DescriptionThink these are Klipsch la scala speakers. Bought them years ago as part of a huge amount of gear that I purchased from a club. Bottoms, horns and crossovers seem to be fine. The diaphragms in the highs are not functioning but are all there. I assume the grey carpet covering was added and not original.

GLWS from another Torontonian! In Beaches area here. You might try posting at Canuckaudiomart as well. If you have box and willing to ship the Exchange rate on the USD might make it attractive to someone close to border. 900 CAD = 708.80 USD. I might be interested in the stand you're offering with it. Can you post a pic with dimensions.

If you see a XW-300d try that one for school. Great little thumpers.
He's right on that.
Marshall(groomlakearea51) owned one in his "Wall of Voodoo" and let me tell you, it sounded wonderful between a pair of Khorns with Heresy II's on top and a Belle center. I think that was what he had(has).
Bill
That's the one I had. I bought it off him. Regret selling it with a bedroom set up now!

If you see a XW-300d or 500d try that one for school. Great little thumpers. Great for music and does decent work for HT. Fantastic little sub I had matched with H II's until I bought a RT-10d, then found a cheap RSW-15 I use now for 2 ch and HT.I have considered an SW-8 or 10 for school though, and should that sub be around still when I recoup my costs, I might buy it for that.

OP should try his Forte up 14 inches on what is available
I did this with my Fortes with 18 inch tables to test about a month ago and it made a substantial difference. I just bought stands that are similar to the Skylar stands Moray referred to earlier. Using a Quartet as a center, putting the Fortes on stands really improved the front soundstage for HT. For 2 Ch, I love the difference it made and once I connected my RSW-15 to the center channel of my Mc C28 and powered by a MC250, the bottom end really filled out without loosing anything in midrange and highs now that they are at ear level in MLP.
Highly suggest you try it out. My fortes are about 10 inches out from wall.
Oh, almost forgot I'm powering my HT through the same Acurus A200five amp.

She is not desperate to sell. We are not CL but rather a community of people with a similar interest.
Similar interests yes, similar disposable income no.

heard ALL of the sides on fox news.
I giggled at just this sentence, nothing personal at all. Being Canadian here, Fox can't even get into the "news" category up here to broadcast. It's been categorized as "entertainment" with our regulation body the CRTC. I think when you have to go to court to get permission to embellish, that should reveal their intentions when "reporting".

It needs the logitech squeeze server, either on a PC, laptop or NAS. Works great here. I have a SB3, Touch and Duet through my apartment wirelessly connected to synology NAS. The Dac's on these are surprisingly good as well. The iPeng app works fantastic here on iPhone and iPad.
I dont use Spotify, but I know it needs a 3rd party plug in that works well when I did use it.

Look into this bluetooth amp. I used this in bedroom then in my office now. The bluetooth connection has surprisingly quality sound. I use this with the same rb61's. It's great when friends or coworkers want to hear their music as they just connect their own bluetooth source, usually iPhones. Has a range of about 20 ft.

Modern day film "The shipping News" with Kevin Spacey and others very fine acting all around.
I worked on that. Great cast and crew!. Was shot in NFLD. Spacey was a bit weird, but nice enough.

Page 3 and "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" hasn't been mentioned? Sergio Leone was the perfect director for the script and story. Cinematography was fantastic , wide pan shots were incredible. I'm not even a big western fan either.
I also loved "Tora Tora Tora' as well and will stop and watch it anytime.

I forgot to add this Doc. Very cool.

Its not a real documentary but, 'Its all gone Pete Tong' is a hilarious and actually thought provoking movie about a world famous DJ that goes deaf. Its one of those movies that they could have made horrible but somehow just got it perfect.
I love you recommended this film. My very good friend Mike Wilmot played his agent Max in it. Great movie and Mike is an even better comedian. He is just breaking into the US market headlining comedy clubs down there. Highly recommend and guaranteed laughs!!

Don't forget about screen gain, and colour (white or grey). Whats the room conditions?
-
Yeah TWK, I agree that does have some merit to it. I remember several years ago this subject was a very hot topic. As I recall there was a hole in the ozone but it shrunk or similar? Can you expound on what happened?im
The Montreal Protocol happened.
As a Canadian, blaming the french for anything is like shooting fish in a barrel. I think smoking by the age of 10 is mandatory in Montreal.
A friends opening joke at the Melbourne comedy fest. The whole set is funny
