    So I bought a Rubik's Cube today...

    Pull the stickers off and make sure 2 of the center's match. Then let the gambling begin ;).

    Recommend a Bluetooth Headset

    I tested a limited batch of these and I like the Motorola 700 (small, good battery life, no scratchy sound) and the Plantronics 510 had good sound, but it did not fit behind my ear well. A bunch of others (lots of motorolas) stunk.

    Amp Overload! Help!

    With both zones on, the stereo receiver is most likely set for 8 ohm impedance. Your Polks most likely dip low based on Polk's history? Did you nail in the speaker runs you installed yourself? Nails can cause shorts. I am not the biggest fan of the Denon Stereo Receivers.

    Circuit City is about to try to shaft me on my Laptop Warranty

    Update (sorry, I forgot about this thread and then the forum locked up): A) I did call them the day it came back and was not working correctly. I faxed them off a history of all their "Case" numbers including the one where I spoke to a tech guy the day it came back and he diagnosed the...

    New SVS Plus Driver!

    It's not for me, it's a suggestion for SVS owners to give a helping hand to those who only have the entry level drivers. It makes sense, b/c it's a win/win.

    Help design the new Behringer Sub Equalizer BSE2496C to replace the BFD...

    Sonnie, If this product comes to fruition, I will prepurchase one from Behringer, beta-test it against it's main competitor, and sign up as a dealer. At that pricing and functionality, this product will move w/ most every sub and by itself. We all know our local guitar center's are not going ot...

    New SVS Plus Driver!

    Why can't people just like and appreciate their subs w/o kicking dirt at others? BTW, AVS sells SVS subs, so their relationship cannot be that bad. Surprised? Ron, Is there a performance increase in the new driver and where? Low end, distortion, etc. (Answered above) Do you guys ever...

    Circuit City is about to try to shaft me on my Laptop Warranty

    Warning- Long rant coming which is more for my catharsis than your reading pleasure. This is a really frustrating experience, b/c I try to purchase extended warranties carefully and so far have used ~1/2 of them. I purchased a laptop for my sister for college. It's been going strong for 2...

    Culture clash - middle eastern coworker

    Kid looks normal to "me." I would not really go overly out of my way to understand the opinion of another. You have worked w/ her for some time, I am sure your judgement on her is pretty much in place. She sounds rude to me. Just call her kids fat next time you see them. Indians and...

    Culture clash - middle eastern coworker

    Pakistan is not in the Middle East, yet it is being defended here as "close enough" (thumbs down.) Your coworker is ignorant or stupidly tactless. If you must link it to her cultural background (to make yourself feel better, maybe)... I could easily hypothesize that w/ infant mortality...

    Underworld 2

    I thought the sequel would clearly have to do w/ the werewolf they were doing the testing on in the lab, otherwise why did they have to destroy it. Markus could still be alive, b/c no one knows what Hybrids can do... oooohh. Speaking of.. how come Markus hid from the daylight and Michael...

    Underworld 2

    It's a stepdown from the original, but that one caught me offguard and I tend to enjoy DVD's more than the cinema. If the first was 2.5 stars, this was 2 stars.

    ***Wanted***Bose Jewels cube adaptors

    Chace, I have a pair of white ones if you want them. If you have a Bose Store around you can get them locally for $4-5 each. I believe they call them "crickets."

    HDMI input problems with my Panasonic DVD-S77S

    I have had that exact setup and the PX50U series hooked up. It may be a handshake issue, but it's odd that it developed over time. I'd call Panasonic 1 800 211 PANA You might need a firmware upgrade by SD card. Make sure your HDMI cable is puched in completely especially on the display...

    Please Help! Confused: Which AV Receiver?

    No matter which product you get factor in getting a good universal like Harmony or Home Theater Master down the road. Almost all receiver remotes are mediocre in comparison.

    Dell keeps sending me monitors?

    It would be nice if "Allen's Friend ;)" would come give us an update on this social experiment. In addition, some of you who have opinions that I agree w/ need to take a class in logic and quit w/ the ASSumptions. Just state your opinion, but do not belittle our shared opinion w/ the...

    Dell keeps sending me monitors?

    Send Dell a Thank You note. Make sure it's Hallmark, perceived quality counts here. Maybe you should write "Paid in Full" on the back in small print and "No Returnsees" in Pig Latin. That will get them.

    SVS Questions

    I will assume that is a difference in driver size. Those SVS subs sure do demolish the standardized tests when it comes to distortion.

    Dell keeps sending me monitors?

    Thanks guys. I just can't get this grin off my face. This is humorous. It's a Seinfeld episode and you are George Castanza or his dad. Just wait it out. I am curious to see what Dell does. I see checkmate in four moves.

    SVS Questions

    John, I am sure you were being humorous, but here's a post by TV. Since, TV is one of the main guys at SVS I will go by his opinion. http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...hreadid=212275 He was always about the numbers. Mainly high volume compression was the benefit of the Ultra.

    Has anyone ever used a personal trainer?

    A trainer is as good as the trainer. He is an excellent and recommended guide at least for the beginning. Most of it is still mental and diet. A trainer will help you not get hurt and stay motivated $$$. Proper form and encouragement are part of the package. Pick your trainer carefully...

    SVS Questions

    That's odd. The SVS guys must have changed their tune, b/c I distinctly remember TV getting very upset when people talked about the musicality of his subs. TV doesn't really comment anymore here (search his name) so maybe they have made changes or gotten new measurements. Your Velodyne is an...

    help - subwoofer

    That Sony sub is very solid for the price. I would rec'd a weight (~20+ lbs.) be placed on top of it, b/c it "walks" around a bit ;).
