I don't really know anything about TVs, and I'm not very picky about them. I just want something that will be enjoyable.
My choice is in your hands.

I don't know what kind of TV I want, and yea I need the DVD player too.

I've got 3000 dollars for an HT budget.
I'll need everything, speakers, amps, sub, and a display.
Now I'm reasonably well-read on speakers, so I can figure those out. But how much do you all suppose I should allot to a good display?
Thanks.

Such as that one?
Would I be better off with an SVS PCi 25-31? PB1-ISD? Another kind I missed (in the same price range)?
Its going to be used to add some low-end reinforcement to my B&W 602 S3s, and will have movie duty as well. I'd say about 75% music, 25% movie.
Thanks.

i have a feeling that the SVS would blow away the RW
-
i went with the 602 S3s... just.. found them more pleasing to the ear. massive soundstage, perfect imaging... great speakers... smooth sounding. Plenty loud, not too hard to drive, nice impact..
either way you have a hella speaker.

caps lock is uncool man.

I cannot put into words the sheer.... *runs out of words*
amazing. yea... thats a good word.
if you ever get a chance.. see.. elvin jones' jazz machine.

justin... dont know how you'd feel about this but what a lot of the experienced riders do with thier commuter bikes is to take some non-glossy dark green/brown spraypaint and make thier bikes look like hell. then they try and park them next to flashy bikes, and it makes your bike way less tempting
-
hey justin.. cool bike. i have a Rockhopper Pro, little higher end but i prolly do heavier riding
-
oh well i'm recieving what one could consider overwhelming support from ya'll... thank you very much guys.

these are not the forums to troll and bicker.
and they're rated at 90dB@1w/1m FWIW

Yea, i was going to say that in the store they were being driven with a 60WPC amp to very solid levels.
and da-yum do those kevlar woofers look cool
-
no, but i will give a brief review of my B&W 602 S3 bookshelves once i get them
-
do they have a Bstock/refurb program for all consumers?

if you dont mind me asking, what did you pay for that projector?

nice job.

OT: Help me outfit my new home office
in General Klipsch Info
Posted
I've decided that trying to do work on my overly fast, glowing, distracting, vacuum-cleaner loud state of the art computer is silly. Then I relized my Epson 740 printer from five years ago is showing its age.
Hmmmm....
...New toys time!
Except... I have no idea what sort of things I'd need to be as effective as possible at getting things done.
I figured I would outfit the office with a low budget, _very_ quiet computer. The Mac mini comes to mind, however I suppose an iBook might do as well. Any inputs on which would be more useful? I don't do tons of traveling, but do move about a decent bit. I've never owned a laptop so if you have, share your feelings.
Printer... I have no idea what to get. It just needs to be able to quickly churn out pages of black+white text, while being _very_ reliable and using inexpensive ink. Nowadays all I see are these fancy color photoprinters and whatnot... back in my day I used a dot-matrix printer with one color: slightly-black.
Palm Pilot: I currently have a Palm Pilot T3, but am looking at one of the Windows things with WiFi wireless.. does anyone have experience with these?
Also any ideas for other misc. office equipment such as book shelves, good ways of lighting the room, etc. etc. would also be appreciated. I figured on raiding an Ikea store for the desk/chair/etc.
Total budget: ~2-5k, however spending less is a good thing. :-)
Thanks guys.
Oh, I almost forgot...
...which compact bookshelf speakers would offer the best bang-for-buck in a small room? Paradigm Atoms? Quintets w/a small sub? Thats the most important part of course.
