    Is Optoma getting any better?

    Coming back here to this topic only to give a big thank you to @BMXTRIX for his recommendation of Benq TH690ST. Some time passed while I was waiting for the funding, but it arrived yesterday from Germany. In EU it is roughly 1130 U$. I got it slightly cheaper and it is a great beamer. I love...

    audio myths answered /debunked ?

    Never witnessed any cable related improvement as long as they were to spec (the right gauge), but my point was always - even if there is, let's say there's a difference (and I'm not), let's meet the cable crowd half way, it is obviously minute since the biggest proponents of cable related...

    Is Optoma getting any better?

    Well, don't laugh now but this is how I use it. I made this shelf, it's for my "bedroom cinema", falling asleep with movies. It's just the right height and small adjustments are no problem. Above my head and projecting to the opposite side. What I really came back to say is that 5 days ago...

    Is Optoma getting any better?

    Another great post with a lot of information. My income may push me towards the 7000 model, but if that's my biggest problem, I got none. I will admit finding the EU model number for that 690 you recommend proved to be a hard nut to crack. My sources failed me so far. I'll keep on trying since...

    Is Optoma getting any better?

    Thank you very much! You've helped me more perhaps than you even realize. A straight answer and a definite no to one of the choices. Just as a side note, I didn't mean that DLP is brighter than LCD as a rule, I just found a lot of reviews saying it's better with blacks and colours. That was my...

    Is Optoma getting any better?

    I need an advice. My long running Epson (entry level Full HD) seems to be nearing the end of the road. I started slowly looking around and these Optomas are jumping out all over the Internet. On a good side, my needs are very basic and simple. No laser, no 4K, no projecting from 50m away, one...

    Can Active Streaming Speakers Replace a 2CH Stereo System?

    @jeffca is not alone thinking this. I really like KEF, but there's a real threat to the reputation because of these software issues. It's being reported way too much and whenever I take the time to read what problems people have, they also complain about customer service. In all honesty (and...

    Mobile Fidelity’s Digital Vinyl Debacle: Are your records really analog?

    I read the article and really liked it. Some great points were made. Although I'm a "better performing medium is always better" kind of a guy, I still think a fraud is a fraud is a fraud. Some might say it's a lesser fraud to give someone something better than they expected and I might agree...

    Ohm's Law, Impedance & Phase oh My!

    "wreck havoc" :):) :) :) Sorry, I had to! Hey, you calculated the impedance wrong and now it completely wrecked my havoc!

    Were the 1970s the True Golden Age for Audio?

    I believe they were in one aspect! Someone may have already mentioned this, the market for home audio was very wide. Everyone had a stereo, it was almost a must. Low income, high income. People were socializing next to their stereo systems, they were dancing to it in their living rooms drinking...

    10 Loudspeakers Trends That Should End

    I honestly don't feel this describes SVS realistically (and you didn't put an emoticon). Thinking SVS is trying to raise profit on rubber feet...? I don't know, are they short of change for slot machines?

    10 Loudspeakers Trends That Should End

    I really liked this article. It was a fun but informative read. I totally felt the effort that was put behind certain sentences to avoid misinterpretations. Since I often write for a living, I highly appreciate such efforts. One such example is found here "the tweeter is mounted a significant...

    What are you playing right now...

    I did in a manner of speaking. That useless ground binding post coupled with the fact Tannoy pushes cryo in their brochures made me give up on the brand (at least until they change their ways) and went for KEF. Never regretted for a second.

    What are some good PC-help sites?

    Yes! Tomshardware, I'll check Tomshardware. Thank you Mr. @Eppie That's very kind of you.

    Abortion Access In Texas

    Ah OK. Thank you. It all got mixed up because of right as in 'one's right' and right as in Republicans. As you might've concluded from what I wrote, I oppose the notion that only rape is an excuse for abortion. I stand behind full body autonomy for women as a necessary prerequisite for their...

    What are some good PC-help sites?

    In my experience, thumb drive is the worst way to listen to digital files. Every time I turn off the car it goes back to track one. You mostly don't go past first 4-6 songs depending on distance, but mostly you listen to the first song over and over again. At least this is the way in my car...

    What are you playing right now...

    Hahaaaaaa... I don't believe it! It's @jliedeka Haven't seen you here for ages! Do you know that you were probably the first member to ever respond to my question when I joined AH? It was back in 2014. Back then I asked why do some Tannoy speakers have a 'ground' binding post.

    I'm sorry, I didn't understand you, but I'm interested in what you have to say. Could you please explain the first sentence?

    Abortion Access In Texas

    Since @GO-NAD! did such a poor job of stirring the pot... ;) (I'm just kidding) here's my two cents. I don't understand all the expert terms used in US law, but I did notice something I'd like to comment. From my point of view, you again agreed upon this "shifting of the center of the debate"...
