  1. Oh man. That looks like violence. Whew. Everybody DOWN!!! LOL
  2. No worries dude. I was barely awake when I read it. Now I have coffee and can think clearly. See you in the forums my good man!
  3. Kids are still doing the same things or worse, but now they're forced into more private venues. I don't really see that as a win. There is nothing for kids 10-17 to do anymore. Malls are dying due to online sales. They wonder why kids get in trouble. If they or their families can't afford to spend on Dave & Busters or some fun place, kids find something. Hey, I was a dumb teen once. We broke EVERYTHING and we were stupid. But we had options. Now kids don't. Scary world we live in.Not quite sure why it is the requirement of the public, or merchants, or the government to provide or give kids "something to do"?? How about parents or family stepping up and figuring it out. How about participating in organized sports, or volunteering in their neighborhoods, or other outdoor activities. NO options? Really? Yep, every 17 year old wants to hang out at the food bank on Saturday nights. I think I accidentally upset Ceptorman. Sorry. Just an opinion. But, opinion only, communities do have some responsibility to provide safe, clean environments. Part of that safety would be controlled venues for young people. I remember arcades. They may have smelled a bit funny, but I never saw violence and had something my low middle class family could afford to pay for. We didn't have money for organized sports e.g. football pads and gear needed to be purchased from the school or a certified supplier and we couldn't afford it. I don't blame my parents. Malls - though expensive, offered a public gathering place indoors for those kids who are allergic to sunlight and activity. And on the sugar soda note - why is our country so against natural ingredients? Or, when we do get 'natural' or organic, it costs more? Cane sugar = win No….it wasn't me, you must have me mistaken for someone else. Plus….it takes a lot to make me mad You rock Ceptorman!!!!

  5. Me too! I had not heard of it. At all. Then a buddy told me about it so I went to Redbox for a blu-ray. Damn good. Luckily I didn't buy it since the ATMOS version is coming. But Keanu did well. Even though it was a movie, when they killed his dog I was nearly yelling at my TV. But then he killed everyone...so, justice
  6. And newer voice in the community who started the thread: https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/159323-newbie-here/?hl=alirashdan#entry1924684 is getting his new Reference Premiere System on order shortly. I have just provided a bit of direction for cables and a couple small things, but join me in welcoming another new Klipsch owner. If he needs help, he will ask. Really nice fella.
  7. And NISMO, if you don't like it, then our internet friendship is OVER!!! LOL, j/k
  8. Dude, you need to see the movie. All joking aside, even Keanu acts well in this. Yes, it is a love story told from multiple perspectives, but the dialogue and flow of the story and the building of tension from Dracula's manipulation is superb. I imagine the ATMOS track will add atmosphere (fancy that huh) to the dread the movie's tone sets. Crap man, I will buy it for you and ship it. You need to see this. The Fifth Element & Leon The Professional are day-one purchases. Looking forward to remastered Atmos version of both. I guess I'll make it a Gary Oldman trifecta.... & pick up Dracula with Atmos. I've never seen it (or even part of it) in the theater, DVD, or cable. One could argue I'll be seeing the best version with my 1st viewing. Thanks for the recommendation ! You won't be upset. I look forward to your thoughts. Part of it is narrated by Anthony Hopkins, who also plays an aged Van Helsing. Some script from the novel is narrated as well as if from a journal. But it all adds. I am getting the ATMOS release so I can hear what both the train in the beginning sounds like and the castle. I bet money the castle sounds awesome. And most likely creepy as all hell.
  9. Haaa... good stuff. So far, I have 11 of the 16 available Atmos titles. I'm excited to see that Terminator Genisys & Mission Impossible get be getting an Atmos release. Terminator will sound crazy good. I saw it in an ATMOS equipped theater here in MN. Holy ballz man!

  11. NISMO!!!! Stop making me spend more money! RAWR! Thx for the list dude. I will most likely own them all.
  12. I own an RC-62II, and it has never let me down. My XO is at 80 for it and calibrated for different levels. Have you calibrated using any program or microphone?
  13. Thermal limit for most amps in around 150-160 F. The problem with that is, depending on surrounding electronics, or materials you could damage plywood, plastics and such. Most amps auto shut-off before the limit, but never rely on that. See manufacturer manual, they usually list thermals.

  15. Hey all! If you want a laugh about the 90's, please watch this. Doesn't curse too much and really hits home on those of us who grew up then. I am 33, so the 90's were my JAM!
  16. I support this statement. Got your back jimjimbo.
  17. It's not behind the screen so something that is internal would be nice. Seems like those KI-396's would be nice. Just not a very pretty finish. C'mon.....you don't hear with your eyes. This is why we get in trouble with our better halves, we let our eyes dominate our thoughts for the first 6 months and then our ears are ringing for the next 30 years By the way, I did not say that and will deny, deny, deny. In today's political climate, surely I can get away with that? Problem is you wrote it on the internet, and we know everything that is written on the Internet happened. If it is on the interwebs it MUST be true!
  18. I want more speakers. I don't know why . I blame Scrappy and NISMO. LOL
  19. Hope somebody wins! I say the same though. I got me some gooooood stuff, no need to enter.
  20. I have the 160M's in my setup and enjoy them immensely. My room is a bit larger than yours and in every application with my other speakers (see signature), they are crisp and clear, and have no problems keeping up with my ATMOS setup including my RP 280F's. Using them in Zone 2 configuration, the sound clear with music and are full sounding, especially when coupled with my R-115SW
  21. Can I be in the club? entirely different set: Holy F-ing $#!* WHOA!!! I officially want to do a B&E and steal all of that. "think happy thoughts...think happy thoughts......"
  22. Welcome to the forum!!! Awesome gear and setup. I just got a bunch of Klipsch gear myself. Let me tell you, unboxing and setting up is toooooo fun. I seem to be unpacking a lot lately. A costly adventure and one of the bestest ever!! Congrats again and happy listening!
