I am wondering what the l/r line level outputs are for on a sub. Particularly a sunfire super junior. Can I hook up a second sub from there? I think this is also a related question. What does master and slave refer to in subwoofer configuration? I searched the former on the forum but the latter...

I was trying too hard to notice everything. I spent most of my time between soaking it in, and watching Vanska. I'm a band director and my wife spent several years singing with the Minnesota Choral, who sings with the MN ORCH. She sang in Beethoven's 9th, with Vanska, whose recording won some...

Finally got to hear two of my "gotta see" pieces. Appalachian Spring and Carmina Burana. Wow is all I have to say. Conducted by Osmo Vanska at Orchestra Hall here in Minneapolis. Not being a fan of solo classical voice, I LOVED the reprise of O Fortuna with every voice and instrument...

Being in the Minneapolis area, and a huge baseball fan, I am enjoying all the stories I get to hear about Harmon Killebrew lately. I never met him, or watched him play, but if today's players could take a lesson on his class and determination, sports would be better entertainment. For those...

I was watching the news and caught an "update" of details concerning the raid. We all know soldiers are trained to observe and react instantly. If bin Laden was in the room with one of his wives, who was charging the seals, wouldn't it make sense that waiting to see what bin Laden would do, or...

If you could travel anywhere you've never been before, where would it be? I think I would choose the Bahamas since right now Minnesota is aching for some hot weather. Ben

Even the Dalai Lama suggested killing bin Laden was justified.

I feel strongly that we had to do this. There is definitely a point where you can't wait for the bully to show up and hope that you can talk him out of it. Or constantly avoid him. He needed to be stopped. In the future there will be others who need to be stopped. This cycle will never end...

I have been a part of several recordings, but don't know enough about what it takes to make a quality recording. I know it costs money, I know what you have to have done, just don't know how to do it. So I am curious if having music produced on a smaller level will still make recordings that...

I had a lengthy conversation with a friend recently who is an educated musician, thinker, and otherwise scholarly individual. This began as a conversation about the music business in many facets, and ventured into the audiophile realm. Our main topic was about the recording process. With...

I want to check that recording out! Good live performances always win in my rotation.

Blue Collar Suicide by The Refreshments I'm likely to appreciate a catchy, well written, very simple guitar part that just repeats itself over the entire intro chord progression. Like Round Here by Counting Crows. (August and Everything After album version) ben...

Thanks for the reply. I was looking for info just like that. I knew the difference between di and bipoles, just couldn't understand results of those differences. Since all the spots in the room are good for home theater, I must have lots of rear and side waves running rampant in my room. I'm...

Do speaker setups change between dipolar and bipolar speaker designs? I'm following ML setup specs and just wondering if I'm missing anything. It's not particularly high end gear, just curious. I did google it and search here but didn't find exactly what I'm wondering. Thanks. Ben

I head to Costco and buy a brick of Dubliner. Love that crumbly cheddar. ben
