I don't really post here much. But I do read a lot of posts. I'm going to try to respond without offending anyone's beliefs. In response to the OP; I believe McCartney's comment is indicative of what foreign leaders, figure heads, and influentials believed of Bush and unfortunatley America in...

Is that who it was Dante Stallworth? I don't think anyone should have any compassion for Vick being caught and serving his time or any of the other things that have happened to him. I definitely don't feel sorry for him going to jail. It makes me angry that people can still be so stupid even...

Twitch I completely understand your position. But like I said I know a few people that also fight dogs. They all treat the dogs the same. There are no "humane" dog fighting pits or pastures. For every trainer these dogs are a means of profit. My problem is, there's no protest regarding the...

Nice room. I'm so sure my wife would allow me to dedicate one of the rooms in the house for my listening room. I wonder would I be able to keep the high heel up my ass in the divorce settlement.

All of that plus because he wasn't only stupid for being involved with the situation in the first place, he was careless with his money and loss a lot of what he had left while he was in jail. People kill me being so upset with him. I don't fight dogs but I know people that do. If they got...

Sonic change is the nature of the industry. One year you may like panels. Ten years later you may prefer a cone speaker. Yet another five years you may prefer the sound of a panel hybrid while at the end settling on the horn sound. Loss of value is measured in aesthetics and performance...

Funny, I would have disagreed with Rich for the most part, until about three weeks ago. Maybe not disagree, as much as not completely understand where he's coming from. I decided to upgrade my cd player Harman Kardon CDR with a McIntosh mcd7008. For the past few years I've loved the McIntosh...

Your name is suspiciously close to David Spades' "Joe Dirt".

I bought a pair of used Ascents in '07. I buy used because that's what I can afford right now. My whole system is "high end" used, lol. My friends think I'm crazy for the money I've spent on the used equiment. They have no idea how must this stuff cost new. I paid 1800 for my MLs and...

I'm not an avid MJ fan. Prince is more my flavor. I agree that it's small in the what's important to me right now category. But remember this was a man that had been entertaining the world for the last 40 years. Whatever his pitfalls or successes someone will miss him. I invite you guys to...

I'm not the resident expert, especially around here, but you can basically hook the audio outs, I assume they're RCA jacks into your "amp", via any input, tape, aux, line in etc. The problem is, it sounds like you're using an integrated amplifier. The preamp out is actually an output not an...

I'm at a loss as I am just chiming in here. But you're saying they spent 28 billion dollars to make 11.5. That doesn't compute on any scale. You haven't even talked about overhead and other up front costs. I work at a law firm and rich companies and people go to great efforts to extend and...

Personally, I've never heard the Lorin Maazel performance of the 1812 overture but for my money, one of the best recordings I've ever heard is by Sir George Solti and the CSO. If great is what you're looking for, he's done it. But beware, there are a few different instances in which he...

How could they be 10 to 20 years old?

Thanks. What I got from you guys so far is Arcam, Anthem, Proceed and Audio Research. I'll keep those up front in mind. I just don't want to run into the same problem as I did with the Sony. lpaudio2, you nailed it on the head. Right now my two channel room is also my HT room so until I get...
