    Trying to remove my membership. Anyone know how to do this?

    If that is what my threat was, GET IT DONE NOW!

    I WANT NO PART OF A PLACE THAT SUPPORTS SUCH NAME CALLING, AND HAS MODS SENDING PRIVATE MESSAGE THREATS!

    Curious what you mean by "threat"??? I don't like the thought of that either.

    Seriously fellas... if you've been around the internet even a little bit, this is mild stuff. I don't see names being called or anybody acting overly childish. Skin can thin quickly sometimes, but to get worked up is just crazy.

    Now, go clean your room and supper will be ready in a few. I want you to think about what you did and how much God hates you for it.

    How can God hate him if God doesn't exist?!

    Adwilk, I sent Zumbo a PM about his claims of sales people shilling in this thread. It wasn't even a threat. It was a request to backup the claim or move on. I did warn him to either provide proof or be quiet about it. The warning was not to continue with the 'There are shills in the threads'.

    I'm not airing any more laundry than that. If I keep getting pushed on the matter there are going to be some cooling of heels.

    Mods - can we please close this thread and keep this from going any farther? It sure isn't helping the OP, and it's just getting people riled up.

    receiver for 90% music for less than $700??

    Once I found out it was for a pair of bookshelf speakers, and a sub, I recommended this.

    RR2150 Stereo Receiver

    Which is supported by this:

    I would not want to do this due to the possibility of sending a clipped signal to my new speakers from the inferior receiver.

    Do you want to invest in a new receiver now, and have the possibility of overpowering your current speakers that you know will be replaced in the future?
    I would prefer this route. The more powerful receiver will be better for your current speakers because it will have less of a chance of sending a clipped signal to them. No chance of this being a wasted purchase.
    Which leads to why I never recommended this:
    MB-Quart-QLS530 Special!

    Now, I would never recommend such fine speakers be connected to an inferior receiver. But, get the receiver first, and then add the Quarts. Figure that along with his existing sub, and there is NOTHING stupid about that. That is, if that sub is all the members of AH claim it is. I don't know if it is, or not. So, I would never claim it is.

    Not once, did someone offer another receiver option. Why? Because I gave the best receiver option in the first place!

    This one has outlived it's usefulness.

    Original poster: If your questions haven't been answered to your satisfaction, you might be better off starting a new thread to pick up where this one left off. Rethink and restate your questions and expectations and give it another go.

    You seem like a very rational guy. This has to make sense to you.

    And from your post, you have been sold internet garbage that members here recommended.

    It's called salesmen being placed in a forum to SELL. Others are just members that jumped on the bandwagon.

    This was the perfect chance to sell to someone that would be blown away by any new set of speakers once they arrive, due to the fact his are just about inferior to any out there.

    It only takes reading the thread over, and thinking about motives behind what you are reading.

    I, along with many, am an enthusiast. I enjoy the hobby. Certainly don't enjoy the bashing that was done in this thread.
