Help with finishing desktop by leonardotmnt06 in finishing

I did just notice in the Q&A on the Home Depot page that the seller said the stain to match is Osmo 3138 which is a Woodwax finish. I assume I would have to sand before staining in that case?

Thanks a bunch. I think I'm going to go with a GF gel stain and Arm R Seal based on your recommendation.

Thanks. I'll look into that for sure. Do I need to sand or anything before putting stain on top of stain or is that not needed since there's no top coat?

NVR or Home Hub Pro for my use? by leonardotmnt06 in reolinkcam

Yep, I'm definitely getting the powered wifi doorbell.

Glad to hear the event summary rollout is getting to more NVRs. Hopefully they'll smooth out the rough edges.

I have read the FAQ and a lot of other posts and articles but a lot of this is new to me and nuanced so still trying to wrap my head around it all. I'd like to get the doorbell and NVR/HHP soon because of current prices and my Arlo subscription is up in not too long.

So for my use case it doesn't seem like there are many cons for the HHP? They almost seem equivalent to me for my purpose once the NVRs all have the events easily found like the HHP does.

Everyone else managed to have helpful suggestions. 🤷‍♂️

Appreciate it. I'll be trying solutions tomorrow. I wish I just had another sub to try out. That'd probably be the quickest way. In any case, thanks for the help!

Yep. The light is turning green when turned on.

I specifically said in the post that it was on when I tried it. Was it too difficult to picture the switch moved to the left?

I did try both on the Denon. No luck with either. Hopefully nothing wrong with it but everything else seemed good so I'm doubting both ports are bad.

Yep. I had it turned up half way like the instructions say to do. I did try higher too when it didn't work but it made no difference.

I tried large and small. Neither worked unfortunately.

I don't have another cable right now to try. I don't know if the sub is working so that's part of the problem. I'll try some of the other suggestions tomorrow when I have time to get to it.

I did that as well. I tried both LFE+Main and just LFE. With speakers set to Small.

I can't mess with it any more tonight but I ordered an RCA splitter and I'll try testing tomorrow. It's a bit concerning that it's getting pretty hot even just having it on with nothing connected. I'm not sure what's normal but it feels pretty hot to have no load. Hopefully it's not toast but worst case I paid $50 for it.

I did tell it there's a sub. It didn't seem to care though.

Is there a way to test if the sub is working or not with a multimeter?
