| Subwoofer switch Leave it on 24/7. If it helps, you can rationalize it by telling yourself the extra power consumption is increasing CO2. Geologically speaking the planet is near the lowest its ever been. The higher the CO2 the faster plants grow and the less wate... | |
| BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE If you're just gonna connect em to a receiver, don't bother. Unless you plan on upgrading to an integrated. Only then will you understand just how poorly the receiver was serving you. Not to mention the misleading advice that led you to rely on it... | |
