Steve W. Bailey Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Hey, I found ya down here...just kidding. I do check this topic from time-to-time yet, don't contribute as much as I should. It is a great place to discover new music and movie reveiws from people who have a passion for and apreciate music/movies. If you think this thread would "see more action" moved up top, I'll mention it to the Admin's and see what they think. I totally agree, music is why Klipsch and this forum exist and now, home theater breaths more life into our existence. P.S. I enjoy everyone's participation on the forum...Klipsch Forum members are some of the greatest people I've met and talked with...kudo's to all.

thebes Posted June 25, 2004 Author Share Posted June 25, 2004 Oh, Oh it's the fuzz just when I was going to start talking about religion. I mean what's your views on Animists, good or bad? Time to amscray (psst.. guys meet me up in Klipsch en Espanlol. We can talk about Franco and Peron and nobody will find us there. I'm off to Spain) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryC Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Thebes -- This thread has created almost unprecedented excitement in the "DVD's, Music and Movies" forum! It has the third highest number of posts after "Childhood Music You Hated That You Now Love" and "T3" (a thyroid test?). Congratulations!

thebes Posted June 25, 2004 Author Share Posted June 25, 2004 Hey Larry, I'm not talking about moving the thread, just dodging the coppers. They may think they are in control but we've got plenty of hiding places they probably don't even know about. Just kidding Steve, thanks for your nice comments, and yes alert the corporate suits. I also like Paris Hilton's I'm a cute bad girl act, nice pegs too! Ok. If we're going to be here for a while how do these topics sounds: What's your favorite Song while singing in the Shower? What tunes do you hum at funerals? Is the Drum Solo in Indagodda da Vida too long? (always thought that was an Italian group) Come on guys, let's get cracking. We could end up as the bad boys, hanging out, wearing pegged pants, ducktail haircuts, rolling our own butts. Pretty soon the bad girls will start coming by. We'll whisper the words to the Duke of Earl in their ears. Anybody got a Heavy Chevy we can cruise in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtDark Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I suggested this a while back and here is the answer I received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 While the webmaster calls this an "off-topic" forum in the above link, this thread presents some pretty good arguments that music is central to our interest in the equipment, and music threads in 2-Channel are frequently extensive and have many views and responses. In contrast, few forum members seem to even find exposure to music threads in this forum. The fact is, music threads have to be posted in 2-channel to get much attention and response.

thebes Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 Thanks for the link Matt. The Admistrator sounded pretty firm, but I'm hoping they will rethink their stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 You know, my focus in this thread has been on classical music, but now I'm wondering now if pop music and movie fans would just as soon keep this forum here? Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garymd Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Historically, this section has been dominated by movies. Maybe we can change that. If we start posting some new topics maybe others from 2-channel will catch on. I'd like to begin one regarding the Vivaldi, 6 Double Concertos lp I'm listening to right now. Spectacular. When I have some time a little later I'll do just that. Right now my wife wants to take a walk and it's a beautiful evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 If you still don't get a deserved response, maybe we should recommend splitting movies and music. Myself, I've had mixed reactions in the past to Vivaldi concertos for other than strings. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Amy Posted June 28, 2004 Moderators Share Posted June 28, 2004 Hi all! Yes, I do get down here usually once a day, but there is rarely any need to post, unless it's something fun I want to participate in! I agree, it would be nice to see this section get more traffic. I'd hate to lump it into Home Audio, however, as it does pertain to ProMedia and Aragon also. I'll think about it some more and get some input from our other moderators, but for now, just scroll a little farther! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwinr Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Maybe move it up near the 2 channel area. Anyone compared DVD-A discs with SACD discs yet? I've just received an Eric Bibb disc on SACD that is brilliant - called 'Good Stuff'; nice acoustic folk/blues. Another good one....sorry about this...is Celine Dion's 'A New Day Has Come' also on SACD. Both are multi channel/2 channel. I've got a couple of DVD-A's - the best is BB King's 'Riding With the King'. As yet I haven't made up my mind about the 2 different formats. They both sound good but not enough material is out yet. It's funny but after listening to there high resolution formats, I can still put an LP on my turntable and not think I am missing anything music wise!

I should of said " No one used to complain about it being down here, and it's still fun and it was more fun when no one cared it was down here. No one likes people being bummed. Well maybe some people, but it's all good I will check it out where ever it's at. I didn't mean you guys don't rock. It's just funner when people don't complain. That's all.

HornPenguin Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 One of my favorite topics to discuss is music. I would post more often if there was a section devoted to music, without having to look through the movie posts. I'm sure the movie guys would prefer thier own section as well?

However, it looks like movie and DVD fans really like it where it is, and it should be left alone. Even suggestions that it be left as a forum but moved up to just below Home Audio, haven't attracted any interest. Then, by contrast, music posts in 2-Channel usually get a HUGE response. It appears that some of the most musically knowledgeable members regularly view that forum. Realistically, 2-Channel is the de facto home for music posts. I would be concerned if a separate music forum took threads that many members including 2-Channel regulars won't see. That in fact was the case when a recent fine thread on pizzicato was posted in this forum -- and only three members responded! Music threads in 2-Channel draw many more than that. In sum, I now kind of think the situation overall is not broke enough to fix. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
