One ring to bind them.One ring to blind them.One ringy-dingy, two ringy-dingy...or just dingy...just plain dingy...(*rib poke*  Someone's' gotta do it...;) *g*)

This is very timely...
...from all the trash talk about Lyric, I'm surprised some driven soul didn't 'enhance' their sign into Livid Adiots...but I'm like that....*g*No, never had that particular displeasure....but did and have had the same sort occur elsewhere.  Guess ... 
I'm here for the sharing, not the snobery

Holographic Soundstage ?

6.5 vs 8 vs 10 woofer
