    Tower Records to be liquidated

    Since I moved to Watertown, I usually have to try Wal-Mart first. If (most likely when) they don't have it, I drive to Sioux Falls every couple weeks & hit Best Buy. If they don't have it or I don't want to mess with it I buy online. Movies I generally do find at BB, but a pretty high...

    Panasonic PT-AX100U LCD Projector Review

    A PJ has been my primary TV for years.

    mythbusters busted?

    I've got an ancient Gustav Mauser in 6.5 Swede that's quite the tack driver, too.

    Tower Records to be liquidated

    Interesting- I see Tower is banko and will probably be completely liquidated.

    X-Men: The Last Stand

    I can't argue with your logic. But my experience is different- in the town I currently live the theater is worthless. I have to drive 100 miles to a decent theater; as a result, I haven't gone to see a movie this year. So I pretty much have to rent or buy, or not see the movie. That's not a...

    Want a good, cheap 5.0 system?

    I've not yet heard the new & "improved" versions, but the originals were amazing for the money. If you had to buy new @ that price point, it's hard to imagine how you could have done better (although I wasn't that impressed with the sub).

    Denon 3805 and Yamaha V1600 - Same price, new in box - which would you get?

    I doubt there is a 'better choice' overall. I have the '3805, so to me it's the only choice...but mostly because I've had Denons for years. Do you think I'll ever switch brands, after spending years learning how to use their remotes?;) Seriously, the Denon has a few features I'd have a...

    Editorial: Online Gaming: The Next Great Frontier or Darwin at Work?

    Being addicted to RPGs is no more pathetic than being addicted to golf. No, check that- it's less pathetic.:D

    X-Men: The Last Stand

    $4.50 to rent?!:eek: No wonder I always just buy!:D I have never in my life ever rented a DVD. Even if I was into renting, X3 would be a must-buy to me. I'm reluctant to really discuss the film much, for doing so is very difficult without giving away spoilers. I will say the movie was...

    Subwoofer equalization?

    I think TrueRTA is free, or at least many of it's features can be used for free. What you propose may be possible, but I don't know anything about your mic. At a minimum you could use a Radio Shack SPL meter & some test tones (generally downloadable for free is you look around- and there's an...

    X-Men: The Last Stand

    I liked them all, but I'd have to say X-Men 3 was easily my favorite of the three.

    You still can. Meridian converts analog sources to digital for all routing, switching & signal manipulations.

    Panasonic PT-AX100U LCD Projector Review

    I see ProjectorCentral has also given it a full 5 Stars in their review. Perhaps I'll add it to my list.

    Panasonic PT-AX100U LCD Projector Review

    Nice review! I think the new Panny should have broad appeal, especially once the price starts to come down. The MSRP is decent but $1800 for a 720P projector will probably be a hard sell before long. Sounds like a very refined product- kudos to Panasonic for building upon the many strengths...

    What do you guys think of Cambridge Soundworks?

    I've never heard their newer lines, but I thought their older models were very impressive for the price.

    Onix XL-S review

    I'm sorry I missed this when it was posted a couple months ago. My experience with AV123 is limited to their Onix SP3 & Onix Ref 1 speakers, but I'll say flat out that those products have no business being sold as cheaply as they are! Onix' speakers are built to a level of fit & finish that...

    Insignia NSB-2111 Bookshelf Speakers

    They look to be strikingly well made for the price. I might pick up a couple pairs myself just to fool with.

    Bass drop out at 75-55hz

    I won't pretend to speak for Ethan, but I know for a fact he DOES NOT make his living exclusively from selling RealTraps. His bio is well known and in any event easy to find. I also know for a fact that he's devoted more time & energy to giving away designs and knowledge than he spends on...

    $3.50 a gallon? GMAFB

    I have mentioned this before, but in a way I'm a little bummed out to see the prices falling (about $2.30 in my neck of the woods). As prices rose I thought America was on the verge of pulling it's collective head out of it's arse and realizing our way of life is unsustainable. Say what you...

    anyone else starting to hate family guy?

    Never seen it, but in the ads the animation looks terrible. I really don't like the syle/looks of the drawing.
