    Veterans Day

    “War is Hell” Most any veteran will echo this sentiment. It’s easy to say “why not just live & let live” but the sad fact is, war is part of human nature. Given the choice, I imagine soldiers would prefer to not go to war. However, when the time comes and these brave men and women who feel...

    Why not just ignore JL?

    Originally to be posted in Matt’s Obama thread: On a side note (forgive me Matt) It’s a shame that having someone on your ignore list does not mean that their posts won’t show up when they’re quoted. We all know Jerry loves confrontation, to the point where he invents it if none exists...

    Receiver setup mic differences?

    I picked up a customer return/open box Pioneer Elite receiver from BB, but the only mic they have is from a Denon receiver. Should I be concerned about the receiver being set up properly with its “auto” set up routine?

    Freedom of Speech & Forum Decorum

    Freedom of speech – something many Americans (and others) hold near & dear. We enjoy living in a society where we can speak our minds, and even speak out against those in charge – within reason. Internet chat rooms & forums are a bit of a different beast though. Most forums are based on a...

    Which source to use for setting sub level?

    I have a setup DVD from Discwasher, I have the Star Wars movies on DVD with the THX setup, and my pre-amp has a built in “noise” generator, all for the purpose of using a SPL meter to set the levels for all the speakers. For the main speakers, all 3 would have me set the levels the same, but...

    You can’t make up stuff like this

    I am a huge Beatles fan – I have all the CD’s, DVD’s and I read the hardcover Anthology book. I have gotten memorabilia from EBay…the works. And just like the Beatles in their later years as a group, my “group” (co-workers) is going through some rough times with changes and animosity, and some...

    Sorry for the semi-double post, but I’m wondering where is a good place to buy the outgoing Pioneer Elite SC-07 – and any places I should steer clear of.

    I Buy Digital.com - Anyone use them?

    Just wondering if anyone has bought from this outfit, and how did you like them. I’m looking to buy a Pioneer Elite SC-07, and thus far, I’m only finding them on sites who are not authorized dealers. Risky I know, does anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks

    Real Life Final Destination - Flight 1549

    I watched a special last night on flight 1549 that had to ditch in the Hudson River after it lost both engines in a bird strike - 2 engines on either wing taking a bird strike simultaneously (A very rare occurrence). As the pilot radioed to the tower at LaGuardia (where they took off from) he...

    Vick to play for Philly

    Now I’m ashamed to admit I’m from there. A copy of my email to the team: Your choice to sign this abomination of a human being sickens and disgusts me. It’s obvious no one in your organization has any regard for decency nor respect. I hope everyone boycotts anything to do with your team.

    I got royally shafted at work

    I’ve worked for the same outsourced company for the past 11+ years. I have worked in various accounts in various capacities. Most recently (for the past 4 of those years) I have been the Team Lead at an account we have with an insurance company. The manager of the account started missing A LOT...

    Mirage Omni 550 & 150 Review

    More than any other piece of equipment, changing speakers and/or their configuration makes the biggest impact in an audio setup. Some people have a preference for reproduction of stereo music, and something different for home theater surround sound. Many people are limited by space or budget and...
