    Speakers don't matter

    Agreed 100% Speakers make a huge difference in my room. Also, treatments don't make much difference because it is pretty decent acoustically to begin with (drywall and carpet.)

    Tried a new Beer

    Two things help a lot. The first is that I was not a very heavy coffee drinker to begin with (one cup a day, occasionally two) and never drank any caffinated drinks other than coffee. The second is that I have some outside motivation now (and she is so worth it.:))

    What remastered CDs have blown you away ?

    The Alan Parsons remasters are great. So is the remaster of Jethro Tull's Songs from the Wood that I listened to last night. The Genesis "definitive edition" remasters from a few years back were really good, but I have been told that the ones in the new boxed set suck. I generally find that I...

    Tried a new Beer

    Having given up alcohol some time ago, I am now taking the next step and giving up caffeine. It was my last vice, so now I will practically be a saint, LOL. The withdrawal symptoms are not fun, but they seem to be about over now, and I can already tell that I feel better in other ways. My main...

    I can't stop I have the constant upgrade sickness

    I feel your pain. I wish I could offer you a cure for your sickness, but I can't (not sure if there is one, except maybe bankruptcy. That is why it is called "Audioholics".:cool:)

    Have I been stood up?

    Dude, I love the demotivators. I would hang some of their posters up where I work, if I thought I could get away with it.:cool:

    Have I been stood up?

    Yikes!:eek: (If she comes crawling back, let her keep crawling on by. I can't see forgiving that.)

    Rock and Metal Headz Thread

    They have toured with King Crimson, which is quite an honor.

    Have I been stood up?

    Yes. I am not enough of an optimist to dispense with the qualification "so far" (especially as it is quite early in the relationship and we still have a lot to learn about each other.)

    Hate Crimes against Geeks on the Rise

    :confused::confused: I was, of course, referring to the line "Tom's article may have been toungue in cheek..." Seems pretty paranoid for you to interpret everything as a personal attack like that. (You made a similar mistake in the music section.)

    Have I been stood up?

    Sorry to hear that.:( So far, things are going extremely well with my new GF and I.

    Phantom Center

    In my system, it is not physically possible to use a center identical to the mains. It is also almost never the case that the center will be in an identical acoustic environment to the mains (in fact, I am not sure that this is physically possible, either.) What I tried was the center speaker...

    Hate Crimes against Geeks on the Rise

    Regardless of whether the victims are geeks, jews, gays, middle-easterners or whoever, hate crime is never a laughing matter.:( In fact, it is about as evil as humans get this side of serial killers and torturers.

    Hate Crimes against Geeks on the Rise

    When I was in high school, I liked math, computers, and chess. I refused to join any of those clubs, however, because I didn't want to be associated with the nerds who were always getting beaten up.:( I grew my hair long and joined the stoners because they were mostly left alone.

    Rock and Metal Headz Thread

    I can see the pictures, but I can't learn anything by listening to the sound (my computer speakers here at work are utter crap, and the soundcard is even worse.)

    Their catalogs were fun to look at. Never saw anything that I would actually buy, though.

    Phantom Center

    I agree. I have used phantom exclusively for years, but I always watch movies alone.
