  1. Older eggs for sure, but if they float they are too old! Place eggs in the pot covered by an inch of water, bring to a boil, then put lid on pot and turn heat off. Let sit for 15 minutes then place in the ice bath.
  2. I disagree completely, unless you are running a sub. Heresies will not give you the sound you like if you like your klf-10's. You are talking about a switch from floor standers to little heresies, don't go there unless you will have a good musical sub along for the ride.
  3. Problem with atomic clocks is they receive the signal at midnight and/or noon so will not reflect time change which officially happens at 0200.
  4. The sound is probably worse at the gym. I can help you out with the halitosis too. (You might not believe it little fella but there's nothing this ball can't do. But I said; look here brother....)
  5. And sput, get your butt over to where you can insult me more properly. You know what I mean.
  6. Yeah drew and rudi are one and the same. Probably still lurking around here. Yes I am a trained percussionist(fancy word for drummer). Strange how drummers seem to have the most bizarre deaths on average. Personally I'm also hoping for something spectacular. From what I hear the redhead is the only one who did not go on to have a happy life.
  7. Wow! They still make the Fecal-Mat 100's and the Smegtron 1000?
  8. Sput, you must have me confused with rudolph hucker.[*-)]
  9. I'm running the cinema grand 200x7 on my forte II's for both ht and 2 channel. It's amazing how loud it will get and still be nice and clean. These amps are all pretty much the same except for total wattage and number of channels, and will handle impedance dips with ease. Happy hunting!
  10. Is that a skunk in that LaScala?
  11. Not true russ. You could have made a profit selling it on ebay.
  12. DISCONTINUED Arguably the most powerful commercial subwoofer ever made. It truly defines the phrase “you had to be there to believe it”. This is a no-hold’s-barred answer to what we think is the best sub-bass performance in the world. Yet, it is discontinued.[:'(] The conquest not the empire. The loss of such a monster is truly lamentable.
  13. This one is practically new and you will not do better for the price. The seller also seems to have a for sale listing of the same table at $1150. If I were in the money I would look long and hard at snapping this up. http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/auc.pl?anlgtabl&1268448219
  14. What do you know I'm in that thread! Still don't know much about it but cartridge/tonearm synergy is important.
  15. The event did sometimes seem like a party for a group of rich people to compliment each other. "You're great! No, you're great! Hey, we're both great! And rich, too!"And why wasn't Zombieland nominated for anything? Zombieland is even an insider movie, unlike the deserving in its year Team America-World Police, which was too anti academy to get consideration.
  16. What was the M2? Comparable in price? I still use "my first turntable " SL-D2 which was 100 back in 1979, and less now.
  17. I don't know, man. At least Tangerine Dream sounds good.
  18. But you see, that's not simple or analog. Well I mean it's not simple to a troglodyte like me.
  19. JaMarcus Russell was a winner too. was. in college.
  20. Excellent points jim. Having never seen the movie you are referring to but in the same vein I have always felt that Blood Simple has been under appreciated and contains the same compelling elements of style and I assume at least as much substance. As for the oscars, the academy is an in house organization (much like an industry specific chamber of commerce. The awards and ceremony is a publicity event and fund raiser for said organization, nothing more. The public are gullible if they believe anything more of it, and the entertainment press is simply in on it because they leech on the combination of the industry and the target market of the gullible public.
  21. Seti, if I could skim 10 feet over the ocean from land mass to land mass, I would consider myself to be flying. Damn that would be cool!
