Just wait until the audio component manufacturers start going to subscriptions for firmware updates and support...

The furry inspector appears to be disappointed about purchases from CK2G :D

Damn -- that's a real shame. RIP.

Japanese Knife Import's YouTube page has a lot of really good videos.

dang, why didn't I check this thread yesterday? I've needed to replace my malfunctioning Dell soundbar for 6 months.

I feel like those 'chips' have a bit too much color and too little deep frying...

Nothing helps you feel more connected to the road than rusted out floorboards. And as an added benefit, it can be like driving in a convertible even though it has a hard top :D This is a timely post, as I had dinner with a long-time friend the other night and he was reliving stories of our 5+...

The planter boxes can double as the 'dirt-filled grounding boxes' in you hi-fi :cool:

Please don't mock the Moldy IV.3a SEs. You really need to listen to them. Measurements do not tell the full story.

Yes -- apply for a job reviewing audiophile-grade stereo equipment. It sounds like you are close to being qualified. In another couple of years it should be a slam dunk. :cool:

It was a seagull post. He flew over and dropped some $hit to stir things up, and will fly off.
