Do you think you need a subwoofer?
Raul: Why do you think there is so much resistance on this subject? (Pun intended.)Audiophiles are normally willing to go to any length to improve their system in even a small way, but for some reason the mere mention of subwoofers is enough to ma... 
Baby name opinion....
Why do people even think of doing things like this?Don't you realize that naming a child and naming a pet are very different things?Can't you think of any better reason to name your child than the way the name makes YOU feel? Or the way it sounds ... 
New fantastic room but system pissing off neighbor
You will not believe how good it is once you move to a single family house.After living in a condo building in the city for nine years, I moved to the suburbs.Now, with the windows closed, I play the stereo and piano as loud as I want, and it just...
