The ship was so heavily armed with..... missles? are you kidding me? Why did the ship have to be clouded in storm clouds and why were there pipes all over the friggin place in this movie? Every other scene had pipes and water. Ok thanks you guys got me started again :mad:

sadly that's the nature of the new writers of Trek. Cadet kirk who kept getting his a.ss kicked instantly became captain b/c he thought it would be cool and wanted to impress La Hura.

wow that's an insane deal and better than the Audioholics E-store offering. I recommend anyone looking for a good compact system to jump on this or give it as a XMAS gift. I wonder if this is a misprint. :confused:

That little EMP sub is a lot more powerful than its driver size and power rating would suggest. For $300 its a pretty good deal. Rather than going with a larger sub, you may want to instead going with two of these subs for the following reasons...

Not really. Ringo is a basic drummer with impeccable timing, something Pat lacks in both fronts.

Its based on the system as a whole. In a small room, dynamics are just fine but as I pointed out in my review, this system is lost in a large theater room like mine. I recently added a powered sub and that has really rounded out the sound, something I recommend to all users. If you want...

I have a solution which I proposed in Clint's editorial. The Audioholics Solution - Implement SCAM Manufacturers need not stress this issue as we at Audioholics have a solution. Going forward all large displays should ship in what we call “SCAM” mode which stands for Stupid CA...

I have a King Crimson DVD with Bill Bruford and Pat Mastellato. I cringe evertime Pat screws up or plays out of time and makes a funny face like "oops" to Bill Bruford. I am an amateur drummer myself, but I am quite confident I can run circles around him any day of the week. I'd honestly...

B/C Khan was a product of the 20th century. If they did a movie based on that time, the Enterprise you would see would be our Space Shuttle :)

Here is a list of my problems with the last Star Trek Movie which overall was an OK movie if you pretend it had nothing to do with Star Trek and was in fact just a SciFi movie: http://forums.audioholics.com/forums/showpost.php?p=568175&postcount=104 These reasons carry over to why if they do...

I hope this is just talk and not really their idea for a new sequel: http://trekweb.com/articles/2009/11/17/JJ-Abrams-and-Damon-Lindelof-Talk-Story-Ideas-for-Star-Trek-XII-Including-Khan.shtml You can't take an iconic character done by an iconic actor and redo it again. It will be cheesy...

Man he got ripped off. The guy wanted to charge me around $2k to do 3 solar attic fans. After researching how weak the motors are, I questioned whether they would even generate enough air flow to make a difference. I had my house double insulated (> R39) a year after I bought it just as a...

Other than the fact that Pat Mastelloto can't drum worth a crap, can't maintain a steady beat and is just overall a horrible musician, i have nothing really against him :eek: Him Tony Kaye (keyboards) and Kenny G (sax) should form a band headed by Michael Bolton on lead vocals and call...

They guy wanted $12k just for the solar water heater. By the 3rd time I said no, he got that price down like 4k off plus tried to convince me that our power bill will go up 15% / year b/c of the oil shortage and increase demand so it would pay for itself in 3 years especially since the Govt...

I usually do that on the phone, I can get quite vulgar with salespeople to the point where they never call again. But my 2 yr old was there so I had to keep my cool :eek:

As long as Pat Mastelloto isn't on drums, I will check it out. Opeth has some great music when they aren't doing death metal. I wish they would stick more with progressive rock.

Energy Savings Scam: I just had a company come over my house claiming they could assess our energy usage so we can get a $4k rebate from the Government. It was nothing more than a sales pitch to buy solar water heating and attic cooling. He tried to convince us on buying their system which was...

yea I figured it was time for a change :D

If you are sending 5.1 via analog outs of the Oppo to the Soundstage, it will not recombine the sub channel to the mains if you set it to 5.0 b/c it will ignore the sub input. I suggest buying an amp for your sub, making it active and using the sub connection. You will be a lot happier.

If I may chime in here, in my family room system, I am running the following speakers: Status Acoustics Decimos (similar to 61-SE/R but with improved cabinets) 661-SE/R center channel 44-SE side channels MC-615 in-ceiling back surrounds In a wide open room like mine, the 44-SE's...
