Bose, really Wayde? I had to check the date, thought it was an April's fools gag. Bose sells mediocre products for way too much. Companies exist to make money, and Bose makes a lot, doesn't make them good, honest, or ethical. it's great they spend money on research, they know just how many...

To Fanny Wang Calling Monster out on their record of law suites does not change the fact your headphones look like cheap copies. Anyone can look at the headphones and see they are basically the same. Very unoriginal. If you really wanted to compete, there are a few improvements you could...

The land of free corporations In a country like ours, the only real power is the dollar. If we really want to change Comcast's new business model, we have to organize a consumer strike. We can give them two weeks to check themselves, and if they don't, we cancel our subscriptions. We will...

Fiberglass or Fiberfill is good Unless you think someone will be pulling the fiberglass through the ports, you should be fine. If you really want to though, fiberglass and fiberfill do the same thing, convert some of the acoustic energy into heat. If you do replace it, use a similar amount...

Simpler and cheaper option for playing digital media Instead of using a htpc and dealing with the inherent issues a real operating system can have, may I suggest the WD TV live hd plus. The one with an ethernet port and netflix on the box is the one. It will play stuff from a usb device...

Rather Ironic really In the audio world there are so many extremes, and different opinions about which is best. In so many reviews one of the steps used to critically listen is to install spikes that are designed specifically couple a speaker to the floor so the cabinet doesn't move around...
