Yeah, what Drew said! Please don't throw a wet blanket on me unless I'm on fire.

What are your fav “Off Hollywood” films
A couple new Hollywood releases prompt these suggestions. First, another remarkable film with child actors is the original Swedish "Let the Right One In". The Hollywood remake look like they pumped it up with special effects and such, I have heard... 
Need a speaker for the blues lover...
I have been listening to my Forte IIs, they are not forward or harsh as the word "Klipsch" might suggest. They do need a little breathing room, and admittedly, they are not that attractive being big plain boxes. I would recommend one of the 3way K...

I'm not embarrassed to say I looked up "tautological". I would advise you guys take a chill-pill, but it is evident you both enjoy the exchange.Lets just say, if you get the subscription, be aware that the reviews may be bias and many think TAS is...

It might be worth reading for a year. Just don't take it as seriously as they take themselves. It used to be better, and may be "total crap", but you do get a glimpse of whats new, and what they want to create buzz about. I for one miss the adoles... 
Need a speaker for the blues lover...
According to the Klipsch forums, you have a classic match for the Forte or Chorus Willland recommended. I might try for the II versions with the Tractrix mid horn. From what I understand, the Tractrix addresses the coloration caused at the mouth w... 
Sealed vs Ported Subwoofers
Tekton has a neat looking design that is quite novel. Its a sealed sub with a second driver on an open baffle on pillars a few inches directly in front of the other driver. They move in tandem, but not isobaric because there is no sealed airspace ... 
Great Lost Lps...
Wow, I like this thread. A miner's strike. Roxy Music's first, self titled. Very creative, strange and cool. Doesn't hurt that first time I heard it (or of them) was live when they backed up Edger Winter's Frankenstein tour.The Tubes "Remote Contr... 
Great lost lps...the 80s....synth pop and others..
Maybe more in the "and others" category and not quite the eighties. Ok, I missed the mark, but "Remote Control" by the Tubes popped into my head and, so, there it is. Produced by Todd Rundgren and released in 1979, this was the Great Tubes Album. ... 
target turntable shelf-how much weight
There is one way to utilize the other mounting holes on your shelf if you are worried about the load. You could screw together a wood frame, mount it to the wall studs with heavy screws, and attach the shelf to it. I have the older Target shelf, i...

Fun Little Project for improving Dynamics
Will this interfere with the warp field from my Cochran WD mkII amp? It is powered by Dilithium Crystals. 
Sealed vs Ported Subwoofers
I agree, in general, with Shadorne -and- Gmuffley. Box size is another factor to consider. Using the same size box, you will get deeper extension and higher output with a ported design. The sealed box will give you a flatter and more gradual roll ...
