  1. Tried this one out the other day......wasn't for me

    Got about 1 hour in ...after that I really didn't care what happened.

    Effects/sound were good...once the android gave himself a hair cut....I was done.

    Should have picked something else....but that's just me

  2. No hurry either..... Got everything I need....Amp .....Anthem Avm 60...( never bought speakers)....Just can't bring myself to cut holes in my ceiling....had a chance to hear Atmos on 2 occasions ....... to me it wasn't a game changer...... To me the hole movie thing is kind of messed up......Atmos....DTS-X  ....4K (but is it really 4K)...one never knows.

    Don't get me wrong I still love watching  and collecting movies....running 7.1 for know...5.1 in the other room....Did buy a 4k TV a while back ....I've seen exactly 1 4k movie.

  3. Pound for pound ....dollar for dollar.....It is hard to beat the Forte II's...They bottom out at 32Hz....The Chorus II's bottom out at 39Hz

    I currently have both...If offered enough money you could probably get me to sell my Forte II's....But I will never sell my Chorus II's.

    And I currently have 2 pair of Chorus II's.....Seriously ....buy both.....

  4. Man....you still didn't sell it yet......If I were closer I'd be all over that....

    Love my Panasonic plasma.

     

    I also have a 4K Sony XBR....got to say...The plasma.....Is still King....

    That's true, and at my age I almost missed the small writing, no need to be sorry, I am use to the truth, I should say fact instead.  

     

    Almost 60, some say that's not old, well I think they say that to make themselves not feel old ! :)

    Hey I am almost 60....I would say old is 61....then next year 62

     

    George.

  6. The Quartets are one on my favorites. I am still waiting to hear a pair of Forte III's.

    I thought for sure I would have bought a set by now.... to through into the rotation....but I just haven't pulled the trigger.

    In my opinion Forte II are better than the Quartets....I think of the Quartets as a Forte 1 with a smaller cabinet.

     

     

    George,

  7. If you think it's a movie streaming service.....forget it.....I tried them all Netflix/Hulu....... As far as I am concerned Netfilx is best for convenience but from what I remember...................... the sound formats just aren't there. To me streaming movies is out.

    And yes we do buy enough to justify the cost...... and besides my wife loves it.....That alone makes it worth it to me.

    I really like the fact that when either one of us buys something we both get the confirmation email.

    I love it when she comes up to me and says "George....do you got something you want to tell me"...and I do the same to her.

     

    Do I mind paying $3.00 more for something to have it in 2 days.....sometimes ...but not often

  8. I signed up for prime a few years ago.....same reason......Shipping on the item I was buying was $100.00. If I joined prime for $79.00 shipping was free.

    One reason for keeping it was Chrismas/Birthday/general gift shopping.  My wife and I rarely shop anywhere else than Amazon. You go to admit .....go to Amazon buy it and in 2 days it's at your door. The prime music thing is just a plus. Streaming 32/192k sounds pretty good through the Chorus II's....
