    Oppo BDP-83 Universal Blu-ray Player - Update

    If it really decodes everything and has high rez analog output I'd seriously check it out. I've got a lot of SACD & DVD-A discs and it would be great to have one player for every round silver disc I own.

    FS: Behringer DSP1124P Parametric EQ/Feedback Destroyer

    If it doesn't have the manual you can download it easily online. But you're better off googling for a tutorial- the manual is nearly useless. I beat my head on the wall for awhile trying to figure it out before I found a tutorial someone had posted to the net. That made it pretty easy...

    THE DARK KNIGHT releases 12/9

    I didn't get a chance to see The Dark Knight in the theater so I'm pretty stoked to pick it up on DVD.

    Boring Bar

    Just what I was thinking! BTW, not a bad idea keeping a GG bottle and filling it with something cheaper. Some shifty clubs do this, too, and most people can't tell. Sort of like having one or two bottles of really nice wine, then decanting cheap stuff and serving from carafes.

    good gear for mostly music

    While you can get great 2CH w/ subs for under $2,500 I don't think that's overkill at all. My rig consists of Monitor Audio GR20s/GR Center/GR10's with a pair of HSU TN-1220 subs...just the 2CH part is well over that range. I'm not a huge believer in different speakers for different genres-...

    1080p LED DLP Projector coming this Q4...

    I'd be pretty stoked for a bulbless LED powered DLP projector, provided the lumens are there. I wonder what it'll cost?

    Audiophilic Discrimination?

    Age discrimination like that is sad, but it's also shortsighted and stupid. You audiophiles grow into old audiophiles, if their interest is nurtured. Who will a person buy from in the future? Certainly not from the guys that looked down their noses at you and treated you like crap.

    Rock and Metal Headz Thread

    On the subject of metal, The Codex is friggin' amazing! It's ex-Yngwie singer Mark Boals and the Starbreaker guitarist. Absolutely top notch meodic/prog metal; probably the best metal album I've heard since TNT's My Religion. If you're at all into metal, this one's a can't miss!

    "Blu-Ray Sales Tank" Editorial

    It's simply too expensive for what you get right now, and I'm an HT geek! Imagine what J6P thinks of the whole mess. I'm not gonna buy many discs at $30-$35 each. Hell, I won't even buy very many at $25. With the average DVD price around $13-20, with tons of great titles around $10, I'm more...

    Battlestar Galactica Webisodes

    Overall I really love the show but the last episode completely sucked.

    Iron Man Movie

    I think Iron Man was fantastic! It may well be the best film adaption of a comic book ever, even topping Bale's Batman Begins and the Spiderman movies. Robert Downey Jr. is amazing; an Oscar nom would not be inappropriate. Bridges was a great bad guy which really surprised me given the type...

    I love Kurt Denke from Blue Jeans Cable

    I've never used Blue Jeans cables but at first blush they don't seem overpriced- they're pretty cheap compared to the competition. Sure, you may not think cables are that important, but you can't deny that you get better aesthetics and durability by spending a bit more than the $2.50 it takes...

    Okay someone explain the latest reputation to me and why "AV called me a idiot"

    It's nothing to worry about, Midcow. Some people will leave a$$holish comments from time to time; that's just the nature of the internet. Just ignore them. I always felt the whole rep/chicklet thing was sort of "jr. high" anyhow. Why sweat over something an anonymous troll drops on your...

    Projector mounting, stupid question?

    A permanent mount will definately make your life easier. A tripod mount means the projector can get bumped out of alignment with the screen very easily, or even tipped over.

    Paridigm CC-300 Center Channel Speaker

    Posting your cell number on the 'net probably isn't a fantastic idea.

    Great place!

    Nice to meet you, michaelmcloud! I'm glad you like the site. There's enough stuff here to keep you readin' for months- so what are you waiting for?:D

    A dangerous thought...

    A good discussion!:D Yeah, the idea of selling them for $1/$2 each isn't appealing. I'd rather keep 'em than give 'em away. I'd probably start by listing them here and at AudioCircle (where several members have expressed an interest). I'm just thinking out loud. It would be cool to be...
