Gina Torres is seriously hot, too. I've really dug here since her Cleopatra 2525 days.

Man, Jewel Staite is looking hot!:eek: Looks like she must've lost 25 lbs since the original series. She "developed" nicely.:D

Yes, Chris. I've gathered that the idea was to try a digital amp. Shocked though you may be, there are few benighted souls in this world who'd rather try something for themselves than take your word as gospel.;) Have you ever done anything in your whole life just for the fun of it?:p I'm...

I really liked the movie myself.

She's not?;)

Hey, I have a job!:p

You're kidding, right? They made it pretty obvious that River Tam was going to be an uber-killer. Remember the scene in the series where they discussed how her feats of gunplay were beyond what a human was capable of? And she displayed the ability to read minds on numerous occasions. I...

I've heard that they respond well to some mods. Some guys have added some damping (Black Hole 5) and glued in some internal bracing and reported getting excellent sound out of the 215's. The big problem with those "pet coffin" speakers is that they often are completely unbraced and undamped...

Both! :D

Same to you! I hope we have many more of 'em to argue about movies.:)

The PSB Image T45's are pretty nice for the money. But I'd certainly consider buying used on your budget, too. Often you can get really nice, gently used speakers for $.30-$.50 cents on the dollar vs buying new. For instance, I recently got some Monitor Audio 8i's on Audiogon used for $400...

Saving Private Ryan is a good demo, albeit a bit "long in the tooth." I think it's been eclipsed by some better discs. However, the movie itself is terrific- so many "demo discs" are worthless for actually watching. I'll also say the demo thing has sort of played itself out for me. I've...

There's a huge gulf between "failing miserably" and "huge blockbuster." 95% of all movies fall into that range, BTW. The movie is doing very very well for the studio by all metrics that they use. Will it give Titanic a run for its money? Of course not- it's not that kind of movie. It wasn't...

2,000. 2k. Woo hoo!:D

Eventually I plan on adding some RealTraps, too. They're a little spendy, but will probably make a bigger impact than the same money spent on electronics or new speakers. That said, I think I'll get new speakers first.:o :p

Just cause something sounds great doesn't mean it couldn't sound even better!:D

Here's the thinking of an insider group that's not composed of homophobic arses from FoxNews: The Numbers. And this, also from The Numbers. This is based on theater owners and actual sales, not repressed ravings. Looks like in reality the film is doing pretty damned well for the number of...

I think you misunderstand the idea of "irreducible complexity"- the context you use it is mostly a politicized invention of creationists trying to foist off "intelligent design" as a theory instead of thinly disguised old-school creationism. Still, even if you don't subscribe to evolution...

BTW, although it's a bit spendier than the Clari-T, Nuforce is now selling an integated amp based on its analog switching amp module. It's called the Nuforce IA-7, and I think it's already available.

Right now if I had the cash I'd probably buy 3 or 5 Nuforce Ref 9's. At the moment you're not going to get "a deal" on them, it's buy them direct, period. I've been keeping my eyes peeled at Agon for a good deal on a Bel Canto eVo6i Gen II with the idea of bridging the six channels to three X...
