    Ipods & Vacumn Tubes...naturally

    Ham and Eggs, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Burgers and Fries....and now Ipod & Vacumn Tube. They seem to apologize for the idea from the onset by making you aware it has inputs for use with other devices, but my favorite part is when they mention this: "However……we can guarantee that the amplifier...

    Prince Superbowl XLI

    Best halftime presentation in easily a decade. He shredded. A refreshing change from all the band blenders, wannabee "artists", politically driven drivel, and boobie blunders. The guy knows what stage presence means and even with his small stature comes out and delivers BIG!, in the rain, on the...

    Anthem Reviews from CES 2007 Thread

    Precisely why sometimes it makes sense to just buy one! Kind of like an audio lap dance is it not? Look but don't touch. I think it's a way people fulfill certain desires that I don't think is necessarily a healthy psychology. Just ask anyone what audio products they wish they could have and...

    Anthem Reviews from CES 2007 Thread

    1) Though it was mentioned, I personally never said anything about returning the stuff. I agree that buying something that you have every intention of returning would be unethical. Though you could have a contest to give it away which seems to be enjoyed here or there's always ebay. 2) It...

    Anthem Reviews from CES 2007 Thread

    Since I was the first to suggest buying a product for review would make sense, I'll lay down on the railroad tracks and be the one to take the criticism for such a suggestion. All I ask is for you to allow me this: Is it not possible that by hand picking a few products that have generated...

    Anthem Reviews from CES 2007 Thread

    I'm not trying to take shots at anyone by saying this because I understand the business model of reviewing and if you guys don't get to examine a particular product for free than most likely its not getting reviewed. Though from a consumers point of view its pretty frustrating trying to find...

    CES 2007 Show Coverage OFFICIAL THREAD

    If you're going to bring a "camera crew", you might have some one on that crew who might have a clue how to lav mic and light you and your guests. Also there was only about 10 seconds of video devoted to the receivers. I'm guessing for the the few of us that might afford Denon's separates it was...

    New LCD TV has horrible non HD football picture

    There are a multitude of things that are responsible for the quality of the picture ultimately displayed on your tv. 1-3 you have little to no control over, but 4-7 can be helpful in getting a better picture. 1. Quality of the cameras used in the original broadcast. I've seen some awfully bad...

    VidaBox Slim Media Center Review

    I’m not going to sugarcoat this review for you. We had some problems getting a working unit for review. I think I just heard my home built chuckle. :rolleyes:

    Dispelling Common HTPC / Media Center Myths

    I qualified my intended audience in a previous post with this: Never have I said an "average computer user" should attempt this. In my opinion if you post on these forums with any frequency, it can be reasonbably assumed that your technical knowledge goes beyond that of an "average computer...

    Dispelling Common HTPC / Media Center Myths

    Yea you've made that abundantly clear, but I 100% disagree that a response isn't warranted. I probably would have left this alone, but now I feel like I'm being patronized. Why not just acccept my apology and leave it at that? If the article made no mention of DIY, I could see your point...

    Dispelling Common HTPC / Media Center Myths

    Obviously I've ruffled some feathers here and so I apologize. I usually reserve my posts for topics I have interest and knowledge in so it's pretty disheartening when my opinions are made to feel unwelcome. Myth #9 was the prompting for my response which brought DIY into the discussion, or at...

    Dispelling Common HTPC / Media Center Myths

    slow down there captain I began reading this artilcle without first knowing whom it was authored by. As I got further into it, it began reading more and more like an advertisement. So after I completed the read I wasn't suprised to see a company name associated with it. The fact is that if...

    System still in the works

    NiCE! Lots of work involved in all the DIY projects going on there. I'm sure all the hard work was worth it in the end. I particularly like the subwoofer design. Thanks for sharing your photos. Cheers.;)

    Capacitor "Super" Batteries

    This wasn't really a A/V topic per say so I decided I'd post it here. Since everyone pretty much uses batteries for something or another I figured it's a story worth sharing, plus it's pretty cool. http://www.sciencentral.com/articles/view.php3?type=article&article_id=218392803
