| Audio Debt? Although many of us may not be using credit to buy audio or pursue other hobbies, I wonder if it ever crowds out necessary savings for retirement, etc. The US savings rate is pretty crappy. | |
| Should manufacturers lease speakers? I don't think it is the financial economics that RGS92 is concerned with, it is having a low hassle avenue to swap out to a new model. If anybody wants a lease, just get the best monthly financing you can find, credit card, home equity, etc. Make ... | |
| Found the receiver, now on to the speakers... Check out some Tannoy MX4s. | |
| Should manufacturers lease speakers? Some speaker dealers offer trade-in allowances towards more expensive speakers. The amount of the allowance decays over time (with the re-sale value). If you do the math and there is a liquid market for your model, it should be very worthwhile to ... | |
| Best Temporary Record Cleaning Options Thanks everyone for your insightful responses - this is definetely going to be a big help with my vinyl resurrection. | |
| Opinions on Todd Rundgren fronting the New Cars? I don't see how they can even have Cars anywhere near the name without Orr and Ocasek. | |
| Just bought a 55" plasma... Yes. HD is very nice, hard to watch anything else once you get used to it. Thankfully, there is more and more HD content coming online all the time. Congrats on your purchase. | |

| Grizzly Man I admittedly did not see the headphone scene. It may indeed be enough to convey the essence for many of us. There still must be a difference from hearing the tape yourself. I guess it would be like watching someone listen to music with headphones. | |
| American Idol, the fems Not so good tonight. | |
| Grizzly Man TVAD, I certainly can appreciate your perspective. It is beyond irony, beyond questions of taste, and all about insight. My point was about tapping into a penultimate moment that brought this guy to a very real completeness. It may not be for ever... | |
| Grizzly Man I'm with Warren on this one, its not about the snuffing, its about the ultimate irony of this dude literally getting destroyed by his own love for something. He got so intertwined with his own innder demons he didn't see the position he put himsel... | |
| Jolida jd 100 remote control instructions It took me a while to figure out on my MF-A5 that the play button (>) restarts the same track from the beginning if selected during play. In other players, the back (|<< ) button restarts the same track. I guess reading the instructions w... | |
| Grizzly Man I saw something on this guy on the discovery channel this weekend, not sure if it was the same movie or a documentary. This cat was disturbed. | |
| Blu Ray over/under $ Henry, I saw that as well. Even more interesting is the fact that the parts cost of the PS3 will be upwards of $900. Interesting business model, sell wholesale at a 200% loss, drive down unit costs with volume, and derive profit from software lice... |
