| Best movies last two years 'Hotel Rwanda' is a great movie also.Watched 'Polar Express' a couple of days ago, another great film, destined to become a family classic. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned 'Life Aquatic,' again not your average comedy. A great story with some o... | |
| Best movies last two years Ok, it's not a new movie, but one of the best movies I believe I'll ever watch and certainly have watched in the last two years is 'Withnail and I.' Darker British humour, and an absolute favorite. It's about two starving, substance abusing actors... | |
| monoblock hook-up very dumb question, sorry Now, why would Yioryos be partial to something called Zeus? | |
| What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock? What the hell is next? A spoon? A push up bra? How about a shower head? If the owner legitimately believes this works, I'll bet he's the same guy in high school who was stoned when some one gave him a Tylenol. Placebo affect and all... | |
| Plasma owners any problems?? Does anybody have input in regards to some of these 'new name' plasmas? I am more and more coming across plasma sets that retail for half of the big guys, but the name brands are completely unfamiliar. Off hand I do not have any company names, but... | |
| You might be an audiophile if... Don't invite certain people (wife's best friend) to dinner parties because they have two 3 and 5 year old hellions that see my audio equipment as an extension to their play things. I really, really do not like the parents either. They blame me for... | |
| Say it ain't so... To add to TIC, I also find that most people working in smaller dealers are also passionate audiophiles, as opposed to big box store salespeople, who at best are barely hi-fi educated. I can foresee people leaving Magnolia believing that the best h... | |
| Another sign SACD is dying I love sacd. I even love the rounded jewellery case -prevents me from poking my eyes out and provokes my non audiophile friends into conversation. When expecting guests, I'll scatter them about.Audiophiles are pretty much the only ones to buy sacd... | |
| Naim Theory on Cableing Never owned a Naim product, but I believe it makes sense, particularily if preserving a particular brands 'house' sound. Imagine if you could run a dedicated line that way? | |
| Dedicated Line Hello, you both mention 10 guage wire -is this a standard, a rule of thumb type of thing? Thanks. | |
| tweaking cooling fans I would think that if the amps only get warm, you might want to consider running your amps without the fans.... I believe the reason why many amps come with fans (in particular 'pro' models) is so that they can be stacked in closed-in environments... | |
| Any Michael Buble fans here? Hodie- you are so right. Personally, I do not like his singing at all, although I can understand why some might. I feel it sounds very forced, to me the way a bad actor plays a part (think Ben Afleck, in particular early Ben Afleck.) Want to know ... | |
| Linn LP 12 Problem....... You can potentially check the switch yourself with an inexpensive voltmeter (around $20 at Home Depot, Radio Shack, etc...) using the ohms/continuity feature. Kill the power at the source (outlet) and unplug all leads to the switch, so that only t... | |
| Care for Painted Speakers Have you considered contacting the manufacturer and asking their opinion? | |
| Aural assault? My personal favorite- 'friendly jazz.' I live in Vancouver B.C., Canada, and there's a newer local 'jazz' station that EVERY PUBLIC OFFICE seems to be tuned in to. God awful stuff. (O.K. -I've exagerated -one acceptable song in twenty.) Obviously ... |
