  1. Usually when I hit the Surround decode button it will go to Dolby Truehd or DTS MASTER or whatever. Just went downstairs and tried hitting the straight button and then surround decode didn't make a difference unfortunately. I'm honestly perplexed, I went to the manual numerous times I know this receiver pretty well the PS3 I'm not as familiar with but I checked the settings against the settings suggested for home theater on the AVS forum and it looks right,

  2. What would be your suggestions on how to go about fixing the problem? I'm not sure how long it's been going on, the last movie I watched was in Atmos and it decoded as Straight as well. I thought it decoded it like that because I do not have an Atmos enabled receiver. So tonight I put on a movie that I know decodes as Dolby true HD. As far as I can tell my settings are still the same

  3. I have a friend who says he burned out both of his RF 82ii tweeters, fused the copper wires. He may be under powering them I'm not sure what he is using to drive them I have not seen his system yet. Any suggestions on where to get replacement parts other than Klipsch? He said it happened while listening to Lil John, "turn down for what"

    With "current" model Klipsch parts, he needs to find beat up pairs that are being parted out, which I doubt he will find very often, or just go directly to Klipsch. Cost should not be much more than $100.00/pair if I had to guess.

    Okay, sounds good thanks. Not sure why he wasn't just calling Klipsch

    Besides, if he bought from an authorized Klipsch dealer and within 5 years, it "should" be covered.

    He bought them from ultimate electronics when they were going out of business

  6. Well, the church burned down and no one knew

    what Pentecost Baptist was gonna do

    the Sunday brimstone got so dadgum hot

    it burned up a church bus in the parkin' lot

    In a panic the reverend Dr. White

    called up an ex-member that hadn't lived right

    he owned Joe's beer joint right across the fence

    it's the same Joe's he'd preached against...

    He said, "I don't really want to be a hypocrite,

    but I got a Sunday school class about to have fits.

    We're all excited about revival week,

    and moved by the spirit, so to speak.

    With all the souls we saved and money we spent,

    we thought God told us to sell that tent...

    I got a famous evangelist supposed to come

    and done run out of chairs, will you loan us some?"

    Joe says, "Well you can just use the whole dang place...

    A-9 on the jukebox is "Amazing Grace"

    I ain't supposed to open because of them 'blue laws'

    but I'll open tonight if it's alright with y'all."

    Preacher said, "Well, I reckon it'd be OK,

    the good Lord works in mysterious ways.

    I was gonna talk about Joshua, Judges and Ruth

    and I reckon I could do it from the DJ booth."

    At the First Baptist Bar and Grill

    it's the only church in the bible belt

    that smells like a whiskey still...

    when the sinners finish one more round,

    we'll have dinner on the ground,

    then go inside and pray we don't get killed.

    The evangelist came with a well-dressed choir,

    they showed up around happy hour,

    looked around the joint and didn't take it real well...

    said, "The White ministry has gone to hell"

    Ms. Mills that taught youth Sunday school

    and two deacons in the back room shootin' pool

    were sharin' the Lord with a Jim Beam rep

    who was teachin' Ms. Mills some line dance steps...

    Reverend White was readin' from the book of Luke

    to a tall, drunk trucker about to puke

    he had John 3:16 memorized

    tryin' to dry him out to get him baptized...

    The evangelist yelled about the lights and the beer

    said, "White, you can't save any souls in here...

    this place ain't nothin' but a den of sin...

    ain't the kind of place Baptists ought to be in!"

    Preacher said, "Well we don't really need y'all here

    You didn't do a very good job last year,

    you only saved one sinner, that's Todd McGuire,

    the little SOB that set my church on fire!"

    "Joe's beer joint has done been revived,

    only been here an hour, and I done saved five.

    Sure, it's got mirrors and a big dance floor,

    but I finally found the flock God called me for."

    They're at the First Baptist Bar and Grill

    it's the only church in the bible belt that smells like a whisky still not a stained glass window anywhere in site,

    just a blood-stained floor and neon lights,

    and the communion wine in here is always chilled.

    We're here every Sunday; we're livin' large;

    We're the only church with a cover charge.

    And if you don't like our doctrine and think we ain't devout,

    we'll have our bouncer throw your butt out ...

    of the First Baptist Bar and Grill

    I think I will just stick to posting in this thread since I'm so easily distracted.

    Me too Brie...

    Weren't they posting song lyrics?????

     

    You take a mortal man

    And put him in control

    Watch him become a god

    Watch people's heads a'roll

    A'roll, a' roll

    Just like the Pied Piper

    Led rats through the streets

    We dance like marionette

     

    oh! a squirrel.......

    I can hear that guitar riff now, these RF-7ii rock that song!

  8. They can also get you in trouble, I knew of a certain couple at my work who are both married but have developed a relationship at work. I didn't even realize it but whenever I would see them I would start wistling various songs about cheating. I would catch myself, realize what I was whistling and stop . I know they must've thought I was doing it on purpose but it was truly subconsciously. Funny little thing that glob of gray matter in our heads.

  9. Also in fourth or fifth grade when we would convert fractions and you would write the equal sign And the blank =- I would always do it to the tune of "we will rock you" boom boom-boom

    okay enough of my OCD ramblings you guys have real music in your brain

  10. When I turn on my computer at work it sounds like the first few notes of the "threes company theme, unfortunately it gets stuck in my brain all day sometimes. Apparently I am weak minded :(

    These are not the droids you're looking for

  11. When you coming my way?

    Im more and more curious to how those four 18s must sound. Especially since I have no reference point, I've never even heard 15's much less 18's. Four hours is really nothing to come over there and drool over your set up Scrappy. Just have not had a lot of time, too many things going on. Then when you do have some extra time I actually want to be able to go down there and enjoy what I have.

  13. I think I'll wait until the room is enclosed, and I get the second row in I will be building the platform same time I finish my walls and ceiling. After that if I feel I need to add atmos speakers and flying subwoofers ill worry about it at that time :-)

    Actually atmos is very low on my list at least until a few generations of bugs are worked out. Flying subwoofer would be nice though it could follow me around and accentuate my footsteps, brings a whole new level to uh oh here comes dad!

  14. You have two 12+2's? Without looking at the specs, I can't imagine replacing them would come close to the output you have now. Those dual driver SVS's are beasts.

    I agree, they are great subs! I had a third but I recently sold it because I would like four that matched and the one I sold is textured finish. I keep thinking that I should wait until the room is enclosed before I decide if I need two more, I keep thinking that I should wait until the room is in closed before I decide if I need two more. But when I place a chair where the second row would be I do not get the same feeling I get in the front row . Then when I see Big Behemoths like these come up for a reasonable price it makes me wonder . What are your opinions Carl?
  15. No worries Derrick, this thread has made me realize how little I really know and I'm happy I have a wealth of knowledge at my fingertips. I appreciate any and all comments. Unfortunately I just do not have time to answer all of them or the knowledge to respond to some of them as far as that goes .
