    Remember my motto regarding cables and you will avoid arguments with cable soothsayers while appeasing the propeller heads like me: Only poorly designed cables can be sonically distinguisable

    Lots Of Subs, But No Bass????

    Woa don't set your subs to 25Hz! In fact, defeat their crossover and use the one in your receiver instead. I suggest 2 things to try: 1. run your mains full range and set bass out to "both" on your receiver 2. run the subs of your towers thru the sub out, so all 4 subs are mono and playing...

    New Genesis concert dvd out - excellent

    I just checked via my Denon AVP-A1HDCI pre/pro and it says 48kHz. How are you guys getting 96/24 and is it sustained?

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    I've been trying. I pulled this # off their website and all that happens when you call it is the phone keeps ringing until it eventually disconnects: Citizen Line Operator Number: 202-282-8000 so much for our tax dollars at work. :rolleyes:

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    Tis true. I think since I spend so many years debunking myths and fallacies that the side effect is that scams come looking for me. Perhaps its revenge from the exotic cable vendors :D

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    Alas I got my friend on the phone. He says the guy is nothing more than a PI contracted by Homeland since my friend applied for a job with them. The guy is a stooge and trying to act important and powerful.

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    Ok it gets even weirder now. I tried calling my friends homephone since his brother and dad still live there and it's been disconnected. The callerID for this homeland guy is listed as his name NOT Homeland and he told my wife that is his cell#. He says he is with the local branch in...

    I just Got a Call from Homeland Security

    Last night I got a message on my answering machine from Homeland Security. At first I thought it was a joke. Then I thought I was in trouble for god knows what, and then he got to the point in the message that it was on behalf of someone I knew. That person incidentally is one of my best...

    Unless you can instantaneously switch out the cables, you cannot rely on sonic memory to accurately determine if there are sonic differences between the two cables since at best they will be subtle. I suggest you rerun this experiment with your girlfriend, but this time pretend to change out...

    How To Calibrate a Multi Row Home Theater

    Nothing wrong with that, but as you can see in my article, you get better coverage with Bi-poles across multiple rows of seats.

    Anheuser-Busch-InBev

    Good point, though I am still a bit sour at how they did everything in their power to keep small microbrews down like rallying on the ridiculous bottling law in Florida that had to have FLA stamped on the cap, restricting certain bottle sizes, and stuff like this...

    Audioholics SOTU Trade Show Event - What's it all about?

    Sadly so far no valid registered SOTU attendee has registered for this contest thus the chances of winning thus far are unreal! Even those already registered have failed to participate! I predict the odds will be much better than 1:200 like originally stated in this contest.

    Anheuser-Busch-InBev

    Bud is not beer among real beer drinkers. The biggest REAL American brewer is Sam Adams. Only a brewer like Sam Adams dares to make: http://www.audioholics.com/news/editorials/sam-adams-utopias-strongest-beer-in-the-world and their Triple Bock which to date is one of the most unique...

    The Dark Knight

    True but my favorite Joker is still Mark Hamill in the cartoon from the late 90s. :)

    The Dark Knight

    I hope I am wrong on this, but why redo the Joker when Jack Nicholson already did a great job back in the early 90s? I want a Justice League Movie!

    Florida Audioholics Get Together

    Haha you did great but I am pretty anal when it comes to doing A/B comparisons. I wasn't even satisfied with the most recent one we conducted. Personally, I believe a face off needs to be done double blind and there should be 1 listener at a time but what fun is that when your hosting a social...

    Florida Audioholics Get Together

    Look at the size of those sandwich cuts! Usually you get little portions when they are cut up in a circle like that but this obviously isn't the case when Dave/Yvette are the hosts :)
