  1. i'd say go for it, but again i'm biased toward the ref, so yea do listen 1st.

    hh, i had infinity 2000 in the 70s also. remember the walsh super tweeter? 360 degree

    ice cream cone shape. i blew fuses on those on the hour. ended up putting in car fuses which of course eventually blew out all the higher drivers (the walsh 1st). ended up w/ a drive-in speaker on 1 for a mid-range - after all I was only a teen smile.gif

  2. rw, i was afraid u might say that smile.gif maybe it's just the 15 - some audioreviews for the 15 do mention it.

    spider, could I do that w/ my existing monster cable jacks?

  3. that's funny I do have a halogen plugged into the same outlet/surge unit. tryed it turned off, but still hum. it does get louder when I turn up the sub output, especially above 6. it sounds like a moter/fan hum, like air flowing at 60 hz. nothing really bad though. especially w/ the output/volume down. thanks mon.

  4. i'm getting a faint 60 hz hum from my Velodyne HGS-15 when it's just on & the interconnects are disconnected. when connected to the receiver it gets louder where I can hear it about 15 ft. away if there is no other sound. i've read like under audioreview that this is just the way at least the Vel hgs-15 is & Vel is in denial over it. i've tried many fixes & have it hooked ac-wise w/ the 3-2 prong adapter to a surge protector w/ some noise filtering. I can live w/ it since whenever the sub is on there is usually a lot of other sound in the room & of course no audible hum. but just curious if anyone else gets this w/ their sub & especially velodyne &/or their hgs series. ???

  5. again as a rock n' roller, i'd disagree on Queen, especially their 1st few albums. also I think Wright's Dreamweaver does not deserve to be grouped with teeny bop. I think he even had a 2nd hit song. smile.gif

    i still believe though fun sometimes, disco was the biggest tragedy ever for quality music - "Disco Duck", give me a break. smile.gif

    live long & rock!

  6. boy colin that's a tough 1 - so many come to mind. being an avid rock & roller I have to disagree w/ anything from "the Nuge", though I admit the lyrics are pretty repetitive.

    but imo disco sucked so I have to nominate (kettle drum roll) "you sexy thing" by hot chocolate.
