| better sound after big power failure? The same thing happened to me after years of gripes with the power company from my entire neighborhood. The power used to blink out here for 1 to 15 minutes no less than twice a month...then they finally got around to rerouting through a new subst... | |
| Surround Speaker cabling question Speed has nothing to do with it. Equal length speaker cables are suggested for the same reason one needs to use larger wire for longer AC runs...resistance. Twice the length of wire has twice the resistance. Don't believe me? Connect 200 feet of w... | |
| What 5ch or 3/2 to match Aragon 8008bb? I've got an Acurus A200x5 and I've had zero complaints with it. Internally, it looks remarkably like its Aragon equivalent except that it only has RCA inputs. This isn't surprising since they were both made by Mondial Designs. Check out the Klipsc... | |
| Importance of Power Conditioner? Somebody needs to go to their "happy place" for a little while. | |
| Music you would like to turn someone on to. Bands you would have to search for:Freak Kitchen: INCREDIBLE band from Sweden. Start with the album MOVE, then move on to any of the other 5 or so. There is a new one to be released in October, I think.Artrosis: Rock/metal from Poland with hauntin... | |
| Eerie, Ethereal, Moody, Involving Soundtracks Hunt down the soundtrack to Donnie Darko. Trust me, this soundtrack is exactly what the title of this thread describes. | |

| What music do you want to play really loud? Rob Zombie -- Living Dead Girl | |
| The effects of corporate music Nrchy, you hit the nail on the head this time. Blame Clearchannel for destroying radio and Sony for wiping out the recorded music industry. The good news is that with the latest technological advances (eg internet, etc.) many new artists in the US... | |
| Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have A highly modified '94 Harley Sportster 1200. Lowered 2.5", 33 degree raked inverted mid-glide front end w/ 21" rim, ported dual plug heads, Andrews N-8 cams, modified electrics, custom carb, 10.3:1 compression ratio, North County Customs step-tune... | |
| What other obsessions do you have? Two wheels, a big motor and an open road. I just can't schedule a critical listening session right after a few hours of riding...the ears won't cooperate after all that high compression combustion concussion! | |
| Can Rock-N-Roll have great sound quality? This is just my opinion, but it seems to me that rock-n-roll/metal cds produced in the States are severely lacking in fidelity when compared to those made in some other countries. If you are interested in expanding your musical horizons (geographi... | |
| Refinish speaker in different color As a few people mentioned above, some types of veneer can be refinished if one is very careful. These veneers are usually used on furniture meant to withstand daily contact (like an armoir or dresser) and are MUCH thicker than those typically used... | |
| Refinish speaker in different color I'm assuming you are talking about sanding/stripping and restaining the black ash with a cherry stain. If the black ash is a veneer (which it probably is...check with the manufacturer if you can't tell), then the answer to your question is 'not in... |
