  1. Hey all, as it is now, I don't have my surround sound with me, so I was thinking I could use part of mine in combination with my dad's speakers to create a setup. My dad has the klipsch forte II speakers; i would use those for sides, but the center gets a bit drowned out since it's only an RC-35. There are two RC-35 center speakers though, so would it be ok to wire two of the speaker cables together and hook up both centers as one center channel? Can that damage the speakers or receiver, (the receiver is denon avr-2106). Then, I was just going to use my sides (RF-25 speakers) as rears...then similarly, if wiring two speakers together as one isn't harmful, I would use my sides as possibly one rear center then. So in total there are a set of forte II speakers, rf-25 speakers, two rc-35 centers, and rs-25 rear speakers. Of all of these, what would be the best setup? Thanks, and if you guys want I will take some pictures once it's setup.
  2. yeah, I want to get a mac pro and dual boot windows just to play games, (FPS titles) someday. What kind of games do you normally play? I'm a fan of FPS, but only on keyboard/mouse, sorry no Halo 3 for me on xbox.
  3. Ryno fan indeed, went to his hall of fame induction in Cooperstown. I am actually named after him too. Jay, I had the slvr before the iPhone too, and although $400 is still a bit of money to be dropping on a phone, once you have it, it really does make you like your phone. Perhaps I should stay away from the kool-aid for awhile, haha. Good points though about design/repair. I cant judge too much since I have never been too much into the harware aspect, except being able to see the difference between a Dell tower and the Mac Pro tower; the Mac does look clean on the inside. One thing I like to ask too is if anyone has any good DVD recommendations for surround sound? One of my personal favorites is House of Flying Daggers. Let me know of any and I'll Netflix them up!
  4. First, go Cubs indeed! Jay, I guess I do not have any data to back up my claim as far as breaking down goes, I was thinking more along the lines of just problems in general; which probably 95% of the time I would imagine are related to viruses/spyware on Windows machines. I guess not having to deal with it yet as a mac user is a benefit I am willing to accept for a niche/lower market share. But yes, a computer is a computer, and can break just as easily as another. How is your phone holding up? Mine is still rockin', but I wish I could set my own sounds for SMS/email alerts etc. not just ringtones now; and I can't wait to try the wi-fi store.
  5. Hello all, I too have an iPhone, and also got the incase, to help with grip. After two-three weeks of use though, I now do not have any screen coverings or cases in use. I only have it in my pocket with no keys/change, so there isn't any type of scratching on the screen at all. In regards to the case itself though, it does become a bit stretchy, and not quite as snug after some use, but it does still provide that extra grip I was looking for right away for fear of dropping it! I am new to the forums, and thought I would say hello. I think to compliment the iPhone I will be saving for the Custom-1 series Klipsch headphones, and then similarly get the Shure iPhone adapter so I can take calls with the Klipsch headphones, and likewise my car stereo. A bit about myself as it's my first post: I recently graduated from a small private college in Iowa, (Wartburg College), and seeing as how I was excited for the iPhone and a lifelong Apple user, [ all 23 yrs. of age :-) ] I applied to work for Apple in Austin, TX. I was excited one day to get a call from an Apple rep. inquring about working for Apple. Long story short, I took a job with Apple as an iPhone Support Representative at their call center in Austin. I don't work for Apple anymore; as much as I enjoyed helping others, I enjoy the creative end of being a mac user, and using Final Cut Studio, etc.; likewise I think I would enjoy being more of a consultant to find the right solution for customers and showing them what Apple products can DO, not how to fix them on those rare circumstances they aren't working up to par, (over the phone all day nonetheless; I enjoy hands on 1on1 with people.) Now I am back in Iowa doing IT work and video editing/media work. (Closer to family/friends for the time being), I miss Austin, and everything it offered, and can't wait to get back. Sidenote: I enjoyed reading about the trip to the Klipsch Facility some lucky few got to attend here on the forums, how does one go about attending such an event?
