TEST RESULTS of Shooting windshields and car doors with pistols and rifles
I’ve been dealing with firearms for 40 plus years and stand by my statement made early
https://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=504839#/topics/504839I appreciate that you provided a link to some testing and can only reply that similar testing that I was present for matches up with what beaz posted...I would add that 9mm is not the be all end all but then really there probably isn't a handgun round that is...in the testing that I was at 357 SIG did keep its jacket and stay together better than non bonded 9mm jacketed rounds did but I think that is part of the reason for bonded rounds and remind that it was easier (but still not easy) to go from the inside out than the outside in...anyway...I think this goes to show how much stock you can put into field testing as an indicator or actual field performance...

Aaron is correct and shooting from the inside out is far easier than the outside in as I believe I recall it having something to do with the laminations...9mm is no longer the weak sister it was once thought to be...as beaz1591 mentioned above as well...

are yours Vertical Cornwalls (IIs)???...I don't believe those are of the right vintage to be the newer Cornwall IIs...

Dr. Bill's (not me) recipe':
*remember fire hazard* BLO heats up as it dries so any rags and whatnot should be thouroughly washed with water and soap and disposed of safely...preferrably outside...
the Drs. recipe' IIRC: 3 parts Gum Turpentine to 1 part BLO...I found mine at Home Depot but should be able to find anywhere...good luck but wanted to share...Do only in a well ventilated area...

Oh, and if you want to rock a bit, Johnette Napolitano, aka Concrete Blonde, complete with awesome guitar work.
Don't forget K D Lang, try "Shadowland"
EXCELLENT voice and great CD too...

listened to a few DVDs last night (several episodes of Band of Brothers) and they sounded very nice...it seems to be the poor broadcast quality of some stations that I listen to...I have noticed on some that the receiver shows 2.0 instead of anything 5.1 or better...
Thanks

not sure with your set up but I can run the TV while the AVR set for CD or DVD (or I suspect AM/FM) listening to music...on my TV there usually is a source to pick in the menu and I leave it on TV (or U-verse in my case) while leaving the AVR (Panasonic SA-XR) on CD or DVD and the Blue-Ray (Opportunity BDP-83) playing the music...
Hopefully my poor attempt helps a bit or at least bumps your question to the top and someone more articulate than I adds their 2 cents...

That poster had read specs for a 20 watt receiver...not the right one.
I appreciate all the help everyone. It’s how I learn.
Thanks

I’m just using L C R...no sub or surrounds in this system
thanks
Bill

Sure I get that but if it sounds good using a recorded movie but doesn’t when using the TV shouldn’t the problem be the source and not the equipment???
I mean if it’s the equipment that is the issue it should sound just as bad in a DVD or Blu-Ray
I’ve e also noticed some HD channels are only broadcasting 2.0 while others are probably a lower Dolby Digital rather than my preferred DTS

That’s ok. You guys opened my eyes to this so THANKS!

I see that this AVR is a weak link. Thanks for the help everyone

How I read the owners manual there are 6 amps and each are 100wpc. At least that’s what I see in it. It shows L/R 100wpc, Center 100wpc and i’m not using the surrounds but it shows 100wpc for those too as well as 100wpc ror rear surrounds I’m also not using...
as for the outlaw, I have no complaints even when just watching TV which I rarely do on that HT...
I think its more a symptom of the programs I’m receiving or listening to
-
Maybe I’m just asking too much of this ststem...I am using the optical/toslink connection TV to the AVR
Bill

where are you finding the 20wpc for the Panasonic...it is 100wpc for each channel at 6ohms listed in the owner's manual...did you look up the SA-XR57???
