| Crackling Noise From Brand New Audio System I tried using some speakers which had been dormant for 5+ years and got some nasty crackling. I think the caps in the crossover had dried up. After a few uses they came around and worked fine. | |

| Alternative speaker suggestion to B&W 805d3 Neither Thiels or B&W diamonds are "notoriously bright". If the equipment feeding them is second rate and you play crappy recordings, both brands will show you the error of your ways. Accurate not bright. | |
| Alternative speaker suggestion to B&W 805d3 My 804D3 are not "bright". They're just incredibly good at revealing how lousy an album was recorded in the first place. Also, make sure your amp has enough power. | |
| Forgotten Film Scores I like the score in "Road to Perdition".BTW, watched "On the Beach" a few weeks ago and thought it (the movie) quite chilling. The premise was totally absurd i.e. "O.K. Humanity. We were stupid enough to use nuclear weapons and we're all going to ... | |
