  1. Hey guys!

    I was on youtube tonight listening and watching The Replacements. Great band. Right? Anyway, I was watching the "Bastards Of Young" video and it gave me an idea that I wondered if anyone else has tried with their La Scalas. This was common place back in the day with bookshelf speakers but I'd never ever thought of trying it with a La Scala...or anyother Klipsch for that matter.

    BTW....long time no see.

    Here's that video. It was a slap in your face at the whole MTV music video industry.

  2. I played this game quite a bit.

    It's a nice game but it got a couple things wrong. The idea of giant

    maps making for better sniping is great... the fact that you can't go

    prone is RIDICULOUS. The vehicles are sometimes fun but provide far too

    little armor. It's like someone strapped a target to your back when your

    in them. I will get Battlefield 3 as it looks to have fixed the prone

    issue. We'll see about the rest.

    I actually don't miss "prone" now, though I did when I first started

    playing it after playing COD so much. The reason there is no prone in the game is because it made

    snipers invisible, especially is the lush underbrush. With vehicles you

    are better off having a partner or two in with you. The more eyes the

    better ya know.

    The tanks are also a huge tactical disadvantage. You can't hear enemy footsteps!

    I really wish I could get a good team that uses effeceint tactics. Rambo action is failure in full.

    This game really craves a good sound system. I need a sensitive DRC. Yes, it's blasphemy for sound quality, but footsteps compressed to 0 db would be tactically awesome. Those stupid Turtle Beach headsets have ruined FPS games, the inverse of TV speaker usage.

    I play with a Razor headset and a Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Professional Series. For guns and explosions it's the best sounding fps I've heard yet. And the BF3 is suppose to sound better. They've worked on making it easier to hear footsteps and what direction they are coming from, things like that.

    They have also added Jets as another vehicle. Should be interesting. I'm not a big vehicle guy though. I play squad rush 99% of the time.

  3. I don't post here much anymore but when I saw this thread title it brought back good memories.

    Congratulations William. Your posts over the years have been very
    enlightening to me and others here. You've always been kind in your responces
    on this forum. An "internet gentleman" is an understandment. [:)]

    Thank you sir.

  4. I realize this is an old post but I've got a friend who just got an iGroove and I noticed the rattle at high volumes too. It does seen to be coming from the iPod itself as you point out. I'm thinking of just putting a paper towel behind the iPod. That may solve the problem.

    Did you come up with a solution?

  5. So did you close off the back opening of the doghouse or is that still open?

    Uh... do you mean the 3x13 inch slot? That is what feeds the horn.

    Yes, the slot. I was thinking if you open the bottom of the doghouse for the mod, you would have to close the slot.

    Guess I was wrong. And glad I'm wrong too.
