    Upgraditis is itching

    Now the problem is that I went online and researched the 2 TV's last night and I saw that the Q8 has 40 dimming zones while the Q9 has 400!!!! I can get the Q9 75" for about the same price as the Q8 82". Do I go down in size for the better picture or keep the HUGE TV?!?!? Decisions, decisions.

    Upgraditis is itching

    Went into Best Buy today to pick up a new laptop and ended up looking at the Q8 and Q9 Samsungs in 75" again. I liked the 82" they had on display but it was only a Q6 I believe. The salesman said, "Samsung actually makes an 82" Q8 now." I had the guy turn the Automotion down on a Q9 playing a...

    Upgraditis is itching

    Hey guys, I've got a case of the 'ol upgraditis. I love my 64" Samsung plasma but I've been wanting something bigger for a while now. Unfortunately you can't get plasma's anymore and I HATE motion blur and the "soap opera" effect of LCD blur solutions. I've had my eye on the Samsung...

    Star Wars Battlefront II: EA Embraces the Dark Side of Gaming

    I had planned on buying this game until I saw the reviews on Youtube by Angry Joe and others. I'm glad I did. Now I see that Bungie is pulling something similar with their XP throttling to entice you to pay for bright engrams. It's beginning to feel like the whole video game industry is...

    Is a 4K bdp worth it right now?

    I was gonna say, sub situation? I love my Rythmik 12. I think it kicks ass.

    Star Drek:Discovery

    I watched the first episode and wasn't very impressed. I saw that the second episode was up on Kodi last time I looked. If I do end up watching the show, I'll just watch it on Kodi. No way am I paying for Star Trek.

    Logan movie (old man Wolverine and his daughter X-23)

    In the comics she already is the new Wolverine as Logan is "dead".

    Ghost in the Shell trailer

    Really?!?!? I think it looks horrible. They've just recreated moments from the anime. And don't even get me started on the whole, "Who am I?" stupid story line they've created. When I heard they were making this movie with Scar Jo playing the Major I had a feeling it was gonna suck. The...

    Look Out Kate! :) Van Helsing The TV series

    I couldn't get farther than about the first 10 minutes of the first episode. Completely stupid. Beyond low budget, horrible fight scene choreography, bad acting. I'll definitely take The Strain or FTWD over this show any day.

    The Conjuring 2

    I don't remember the first one, though I think I remember liking it. I ended up seeing this one because the wife and I had a fight and I needed to get out of the house. It was OK. Nothing too great. I honestly don't know why it was rated R. There wasn't any gore or swearing. I did like the...

    Its beginning to look like Vizio is the display to beat in value..

    I know I sound like every other old curmedgon but I rue the day that plasma went the way of the Do-Do. I LOVE my Samsung plasma and have gotten about 6 or 7 years of enjoyment out of it so far. Hopefully it keeps running for many years because I don't look forward to having to buy an LCD...

    I love my Oppo

    How does Oppo compare to the good 'ol PS3 which was at one time one of the best BD players on the market? I know the Oppo's can do SACD which the PS3 can't but I only have a few SACD's anyway.

    RIP Maurice White...

    EWF was my first concert. Bummer. I didn't even know Maurice had Parkinson's. I wondered why he stopped touring with the band. That's why I never went and saw them in recent years. It just isn't EWF without Maurice. So sad.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens - and the series re-awakens *(spoilers)

    \ Dude it's going to quickly eclipse Avatar as the biggest movie of all time. Lame. At least Avatar was a good movie. One of my Star Wars geek friends has seen it 7 times in the theater so far. :rolleyes:

    The Shannara Chronicles

    I'm not hardly exaggerating. I just re-read the book a few months ago so I have it fairly fresh in my mind. Almost NOTHING on the show so far was actually in the book. 1. Most of this silly love triangle between Wil, Amberle and Eretria wasn't in the book. 2. Eretria never snuck into Arborlon...

    This doesn't apply to using a pro amp bridged to drive a sub though right?

    Different length XLR's

    Hey guys, We just moved and I decided to reorganize the components in my AV rack. I use to have my XMC1 directly above my XPA5 connected with 1.5ft XLR's. Well now I've got the XMC and XPA next to each other so the 1.5's won't reach anymore. I just bought a set of 3' XLR's but I think a...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Dude don't even get me started on The Hobbit. But so far Shanarra is only barely following the most basic plot line of the book. So far they have changed EVERYTHING about how the characters get to where they are going and that annoys the hell out of me. I don't mind a few changes but almost...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Dude, which book did you read?????? The show changed pretty much everything! 1. How The Chosen are selected is totally stupid on the show 2. Amberle isn't even in Arborlon at the beginning of the book 3. Amberle's aunt that Allanon had a previous fling with isn't in the book 4. The stupid...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    The Shannara Chronicles is starting with Elfstones of Shannara. Not sure why. But so far the book and the show are completely different.
