Gonk - - applying the custom skins is the one thing I did figure out. It would be nice if I could suck the functions right out of the component remotes then customize them as I go. As my system evolves, I'm sure other devices will join the fun.
Skyblazer - - I actually purchased the remote from a direct distributor so I guess you can say I got a deal @ $650.

I installed the Jensen and the hum is still present. Now I am really confused!

I just spent the last 2 1/2 hours figuring all this out. Look at my sig. I decided switched the 7500 on the mains with the 2200's. The hum went away. I switched outlets on them but it didn't matter, the 7500 hums but the 2200's don't. The 2200's no power each LSi15 (not bi-amped). While I don't get a hum, I do get a hiss from the tweeter, but nothing from the mid-range drivers.
so, did something go bad in my 7500???

well,
now the 7500 is driving the center and two rears. But get this, the hum exists only in the center (as it always had) and only ONE of the rears.
And one question I just noticed: I own the Outlaw PCA interconnects to wire all of my speakers to their amps. The have arrows that indicate which direction the signal should travel. All of mine are correct, however, some of the cable have red lettering and some have blue. Does this mean anything?

The colored lettering is to differentiate between left an right. Only the arrow makes a difference. Usually only one side of an audio interconnect is grounded!

I am updating because the hum is now in both rears (it always had been) but on different drivers. so on the left speaker it is the upper driver and on the right it is the lower driver. It is in both tweeters. If NOT the 7500, could my speakers be showing blown crossovers? Because the bottom line is that the 2200's are not producing a hum and the fronts now are free of hum. The process of elimination is starting to point in the direction of the 7500.

But I feel like the culprit is REALLY the cable box. If I unplugg its power cord completly, the sound still exists, but it I unplugg the cloaxial the problem DOES go away. This is why #1 I am baffled the Jensen doesn't work and #2 that somehow the 2200's are doing a better job of "shielding" the channels.
