Happy Thanksgiving to all! Late, I know, but most of us extend the holiday through the weekend, yes? I learned something this year. BRINE THAT BIRD! I have done turkeys on the grill, deep fried, and of course in the oven. This year was the first time I brined the turkey before roasting it. I...

Well? Who went and how was it? Exciting race for sure. I think it was a bold move by Ferrari to get Alonso on the clean side for the start and it sure paid off! Brilliant! Surprisingly, no questions or comments in the post race interview. I am happy that Alonso was able to stretch it out to the...

Sadly, we will not be able to go to Austin this year. But it will be an exciting last 2 races for sure. I sure hope Alonso can pull it off. He deserves the 2012 WDC title moreso than Vettel IMHO. Although I like Vettel, and think he will go on to win more titles, I think this season, Alonso has...

We are trying to work in a trip to Austin in november for the race. Hopefully it works out.

All I can say is to each his own. If you want bass slam and live club music, go for it. If you want to listen to a faithful reproduction of live unamplified music, more power to you. If you want opera, fine with me. The point is that everyone has different tastes. Do what makes YOU happy and do...

Congrats. I have been impressed with the Epson line and had the chance to install the 6010 when it was released. I agree that a pro. calibration is worth the $$ and will squeeze the most performance out of that projector.

Something to do with the flux capacitor and the kph equivalent of 88 mph. :) That is what happens when rubber meets rubber. Exciting race in Monaco! Man, Schumacher looks really good but his luck does not. Of course he rear ended someone in the previous race...that cannot help. :)

Well....after 3 races, it is still hard for me to predict anything. But it does appear that so far, Red Bull has lost its dominance. I would have to say that so far, Mercedes is looking much improved, Ferrari has taken a step back....2 steps for Massa for some reason. McLaren looks good and...

Malaysia was exciting! I hope Schumacher can cash in on his good qualifying performances. I think he is working with Brawn and the engineers to develop the Merc to suit him better than last year's car and also better than it seems to be working for Nico at the moment. And although it was not due...

Wow. It has been nearly a year since I posted here?! Not much has changed really I guess. Although it is looking like Red Bull might not be as far ahead as they were a year ago. In fact, in Melbourne, McLaren looked to be in a much better position. But I never predict anything until the 3rd race...

No mistake on the file size. DVD movies are up to ~4.7GB. Bluray discs can store up to 30GB IIRC. So a feature length film should be around 20-25GB give or take. I would agree that you should set up a NAS or external disk array (Thunderbolt) to store your media on rather than store it all on the...

Congrats on the new home and dedicated HT room. Jealous! Earlier in this thread, I supported the Integra. And for the $$$, it is still hard to beat feature-wise. I also mentioned the NAD T175 which is still a fantastic unit. But after a recent experience, I can easily recommend the Anthem D2V...

Having heard it, I would say that it is a bargain for what it is and does. It sounds fantastic! The USB implementation is excellent. The addition of ethernet for Airplay and other possible uses in the future is brilliant. And as mentioned, when you pop the hood on a Classe, you have no choice...

I still think that we will see a race in Austin next year. I am excited also about the announcement of road circuit in NY/Jersey. Will there continue to be 2 US races? Bernie seems to want that. I think the teams and drivers are for it. I think FOM and the FIA are for it. This is really the...

Tim, you mentioned the Motion LX16 briefly in your comments on the ML room. How did they sound? I took a closer look at them on ML's site and they look really well built and actually quite attractive. Curious how they perform compared to something like the PSB Imagine Mini or Paradigm Studio...

It is not complicated at all. Laptop plugs into audio system via USB. How much easier could it be? :P We have SONOS set up in the store as well. And we can do Airplay with the iTunes stuff. We are putting together a display specifically geared towards computer audio and all the options...

I agree 100% as I am sure any logical being would. That IsoMike rig is about as close as I have heard though! Honestly....even when I heard it in Ray Kimber's warehouse, where it was set up on the "loading dock" for lack of a better description, it gave me chills. Brilliant feat of artistic...

On a side note to this thread, we recently tried some Audioquest USB cables in a small system we have in the corner of our showroom lobby. It consists of ML Ascents (consignment items), powered by a Vincent hybrid integrated amp, fed by a laptop connected via USB to a Peachtree DAC-iT. We...

Great coverage of the show Tim as always! Love that new Peachtree Grand stuff! Can you swing into the Zu Audio room if you have not already? Always interesting to see what Sean and the Zu zoo are up to. :)

I have never compared the 2 side by side. I am guessing that they are fairly similar in theory and application. But I could not tell you what the major or minor differences would be. I think a more appropriate comparison would be between ARC and Audyssey Pro. It would be interesting to be able...
