    BMG Music Service fiasco

    More than 8 years ago (I think it was 10 or 11), I paid for two BMG CD purchases with one check. They only credited one invoice, and started claiming that I owed them another $20. I wrote and explained their mistake, but they continued insisting that I hadn't paid it. I never bought anything...

    Do CRTs Have A Native Resolution?

    My CRT is high definition.

    Velodyne Microvee subwoofer

    It is easy to get better performance for a lot less money simply by going with a larger size. Beyond the coolness factor, it is hard for me to see why anyone would need a sub that small. Surely a room big enough for a tv, speakers and furniture would have an empty corner big enough for a 12" cube!

    First ever CD

    I currently have Bad, Thriller, and Dangerous. All three have some great songs on them and great production values as well. There is a reason they were massive hits. Sure MJ is weird, but that doesn't mean he isn't a great performer. (Besides, I can't imagine anybody growing up the way he did...

    Ever hear of Unisound speakers?

    Never heard of them in my life.

    World's 42 most expensive speakers

    I like the looks of some of them. The TLGs, however, rank among the ugliest things I have seen. What is with the Audio Notes, though? They are utterly generic looking. In fact, they look like something a DIYer could build for well under $500!:eek: (Did anyone else note the ironic use of 42...

    Crap, money help.

    I can't believe that the college doesn't have an old tuba that you can use until you get your own, especially as a music major.

    First ever CD

    No, that would be at the left extreme. I don't like extremes, and prefer the middle. I can tolerate Republicans when, unlike Bush, they are moderate.

    Primus Sucks!

    I am confused. Why is the thread called "Primus sucks" when, in fact, the OP's comments about them are favorable?:confused::confused: FWIW I like them well enough, but don't count them among my favorites. I actually prefer Les Claypool's solo work, as well as his collaborations with other...

    The greatest stuff

    Agreed. I have all of their CDs, so a Greatest Hits would be redundant.

    Pure Malt speakers

    As an advertising ploy, these deserve to join the exalted ranks of Chia Pets, the Amazing Ginsu knife, and The Clapper.:p

    center channel speaker battle

    Boys, boys, let's try to be civilized here!:D (GG is right, though. You do need to work on composing coherent paragraphs. Your meaning is in there somewhere, but it is often obscure.)

    center channel speaker battle

    They list two on their website. Neither is a VS, but one is a VE which may be the closest equivalent in production. Of course, a VS bookshelf would do as well (or better) if you can find one.

    I second that suggestion.

    First ever CD

    Better get rid of it, then. You don't want Bush's right-wing gestapo kicking down your door.:p (They don't care how many years ago it was.)

    Italian tenor Pavarotti dies at 71

    Even I, who never enjoyed opera, appreciated his talent (and his personality.) He will be missed.

    Speaking of government control/mistakes

    Sad but true. I am not sure if voting in an independent would help or not. In fact, at this point the system is so broken that I am not optimistic that it can be fixed at all.

    First ever CD

    I can't be sure since it was a long time ago (close to 25 years), but it was probably Dark Side of the Moon since that one had been a favorite for many years before the CD was invented. Also, since it was a benchmark in terms of recording, it stood to benefit in an obvious way from the massive...
