  1. You gonna hit the tables, hit the clubs, or hit the sack (with a partner - or 2 - of course)?
  2. I could be wrong, but I seem to read constantly on boards here and there that Rotel amps, while sounding terrific, have a major problem with fuses blowing...?

This, and "Transylvannia 5-6000."
  5. I disliked this movie very much. If only they kept to the initial serious/dark tone, instead of turning gimmicky and trite toward the end.

If so would you mind sending some my way to sample some stuff find some new music to listen too. I really like the sound of settling on death cab. ---------------- Hey updawg, yeah, I do have some music on MP3 (since I rip my favorite albums onto my computer). Let me know how, what, and where to send them and I'll shoot them your way.
  7. Congrats, Mike! Looks like your PS Audio line is picking up!
  8. If your receiver goes into 6.1 mode (I'm assuming you have 6 speakers and a sub?), then why would you want to go to 5.1?
  9. For me, it's a tie between Death Cab For Cutie's "Tranatlanticism" and Snow Patrol's "Final Straw."

  11. My favorite classical pieces of all time are: Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 Mahler's Symphony No. 7 "Tragic"
  12. A revelatory moment where an poignant scene in the film suddenly strikes you, an epiphany washes over, and you think to yourself, "oh wow, this IS a great movie." (and I think Bill meant "redeeming" point...just a typo)
  13. What a great idea! I'd definitely pay for some computer media speakers that were crafted with the same materials and likeness of Khorns, kinda like those 50:1 scale model cars.
  14. I like your little UFO CD holder thingies.
  15. Jim, just go to the Arclight. Klipsch or not, it's the best sounding theater bar none, in my honest and educated opinion!
  16. Dolby Digital and DTS are 2 surround-sound formats from completely different companies. Dolby Digital and DTS are, if indicated on your DVD's or receiver, surround-sound formats capable of a 5.1 playback. 5.1 meaning 5 speakers and 1 subwoofer. Dolby Digital EX means 6.1. It only works if you have an additional speaker, usually a surround-back (many people use a center-channel speaker for this). DTS EX also means 6.1. The difference between ES and EX is that they belong to Dolby Laboratories, and DTS, respectively. Dolby ProLogic IIx is the newest surround-sound mode from Dolby Labs that takes any stereo (2-channel) or 5.1 signal and converts it into a 7.1 surround format. This only works if you have 2 surround-back speakers. This sound mode is also the same as THX Surround Cinema, THX Ultra Surround, and THX Ultra2 Surround. However, you don't need to worry about those unless your receiver/preamp is equipped with THX formats.
  17. DAMMIT!!! I'd love to come, and check out your MONSTROCITY of a screen, Wayne, but...I'll be out of town. Shizer. Hope you guys have fun though! Pour out a little liquor for me, ok?
  18. I posted an offer in your 2-channel post too. $200 shipped?
  19. Ben, I just have to say the kid in your avatar is the cutest kid I've ever seen in my life.
  20. Those would look great alongside my cannibis plants!
