Fun baby.....yeah!! 
Inexpensive pair of bookshelf speakers.
"How good are the Epic 2s now that Music Direct is selling them at 50% off ($399.00)?"As good as they were before but now twice the value.BTW, I have never heard these, but I think I did get the math right. :^)

Austin couldn't figure out how to get good sound from a CD either, much less anything else digital. I think the scene was in his first movie.Is This you?I just love how you can find just about anything with digital. Records can't do that!!!

Austin Powers will be happy about all this. 
Your most disappointing purchase or audition?
I think both parties should take it offline and keep it there. 
Help Need speakers for Peachtree Audio Nova 125
That's a very cost effect setup. Sounds like a good plan.I see the Peachtree spec at 125w/ch 8Ohm, >200 4 OHM, Class D.Should fo a nice job on paper.Anyone know what Class D amp modules the Peachtrees use now or any other key aspects of its des...

Does anyone remember Ohm I speakers?

I Just Know It's BS ... But I Have't Tried It Yet
"Trust Your Own Ears" is sound advice, but a highly flawed and often unreliable process nonetheless. The BS'ers know that very well, but they will never say it. 
Amplifier specs, does they matter?
"The bottom line is it does not seem to be implementation specific. "With technology, there is a right and wrong way to do everything....and usually many shades of grey in-between.That's why you hire expensive skilled engineers with great depth of... 
I Just Know It's BS ... But I Have't Tried It Yet
Trust has a lot to do with it. I don't trust anyone who solely pitches pros and NEVER addresses cons. All products have both. If depicted otherwise, a big red flag should go up.I don't mind "fanboys" ie people who just like certain things for what... 
Amplifier specs, does they matter?
Kijanki, you appear to have taken a stronger position against use of NF than in the past where you argued results were very implementation specific.Or are you just pointing out pros and cons, which all approaches always have?Based on a stated 100X...

"On rare occasions, I saw chemical reactions proceed in ways that seemed to make absolutely no sense based on the laws of chemistry and physics."I see things in my companies tech labs all the time that make little sense. THey do not go "to product...
