This is a classic case of frame rate sampling aliasing! Same thing as the wagon wheel effect.

Bacon Egg & Cheese Biscuit FTW!

++ However, nowadays access time is regulated by not only HDCP handshake but also keyframe lockon from the MPEG-2/4 GOP.

AcuDefTechGuy, Did you ever consider purchasing/building a set of Thors to complement your Orions?

Yes, there is only one Blu-ray version on the market and it's as cheap as it says it is. Kudos to Sony for the awesome job!

Right on all accounts, arbeck. 3D is being shoved into the consumer space, but it's still very much a work in progress. There isn't a panacea that combines all of the benefits of the various 3D technologies with none of the drawbacks.

While technically the newest RE movie was shot on a 3D F35 rig, Avatar was shot with the HDC-F950 cameras.

This is totally awesome and I don't even own any Denon gear. This is the commitment to taking care of customers in the long term that I wish more manufacturers would have. And I definitely believe these units, considering their ages, would need to be shipped back to Denon. At least the...

I've never heard of this company, but they claim their subwoofer is flat from 18 to 125 Hz +/- 2 dbs. Does anyone want to look at their website and tell me if they're just spewing BS? http://www.ttechcorp.com/e3.htm

I believe the term you're looking for is the Barbra Streisand effect.

One of the things I most vividly remember when I learned CPR is that if someone is in need of CPR (e.g. when you're walking down the street and you see someone collapse and struggling to breathe), you're not forced to give them aid.

Has anyone here tried P90X? I was going to give it a shot as I just can't get my weight down since I've been done playing baseball. I'm 6'3 250 lbs. and I'd like to get back down at least to my playing weight, 215 lbs.

Thanks for the advice. I got in touch with him a few hours ago and he laid down the rules. He'll have me over for about an hour and I can bring whatever music I like (CD only; the vinyl is out of commission at the moment). I'm compiling a playlist now for tomorrow afternoon. I'll post it...

How long did you have them listen?

Well, I managed to talk some into letting me demo their newly constructed Orions. After months of back and forth e-mailing, the guy says I can come over this weekend. However, I've never done a speaker demo before. What's considered proper etiquette? Should I bring something over (besides...
