| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey @waytoomuchstuff, the Kloss Novabeam! I have fond memories of sitting in our basement, watching Star Wars on laserdisc in front of that big silver screen and thinking "it will never get better than this". Of course, at 13 years old, everything see... | |

| No God No! Say it Ain’t So! @mahler123, or choosing an all-star wrestling shill to head the Dept. of Education. Can you imagine? | |
| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey Bigger=better every time. NAFTA hasn't really changed my TV viewing habits. | |
| Dual Subwoofers? I'm considering a pair of martin logan subs, heard them and like them. Lotsa setup/control features. | |
| Solid State Preamp to replace tube unit I've been using an ARC LS7 since 1998 and have never changed a tube. I also leave all my gear on, 24/7 unless there is a power storm or I'm going out of town. I don't understand how tubes can last this long. I generally listen for at least a coupl... | |

| Physically Comfortable Headphones Open back headphones have been revelatory in my hifi journey. I use Stax, which are admittedly ugly, but they sound like new (and they were made in 1979). They are easily the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. | |
| HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SYSTEM IN LESS THAN 30 SECONDS @howartcow THGTTG is very important to me and I consider it (and the subsequent books in the series) to be a masterpiece. I consider Adams a "cynic with a heart of gold (not the infinite improbability drive powered spaceship)". Regarding the "... | |
| What's Up With Jane's Addiction? I agree with that toast: "to many drugs!" | |
| 1 song you never get sick of? @keegiam I know it's been years since you posted your response, but on my way home from work last night I listened to "Tighten Up" about ten times in a row. Everything about this song is fantastic. I especially love the little laugh at the beginni... | |
| Wanna take it to the next level? Buy MORE speakers! I've been in the audio industry, both sales and as a buyer, for the better part of 40 years. Yes, I've heard multiple speaker arrangements optimized for both movies and music. I thought the Synthesis facility in Northridge sounded the best of wha... | |
| Wanna take it to the next level? Buy MORE speakers! I've listened to pretty much every configuration (5.1 through 13.4.4) and while it provides a cool effect it doesn't move me in the way that even a mediocre two channel system does. Movies? Sure - give me that immersive feeling with planes flying ... | |
| Dealers of High End Equipment So weird that audio shops are going out of business when customers demand massive discounts, especially to match an online warehouse with miniscule overheard compared to a traditional B&M store. Turns out the internet doesn't have a great list... |
