    And the under-achieving center channel of the year award goes to...........

    Just based on this thread at the very *least* people are considering the B2 as good as a C1 for centre use. You have already spent the money and own the B2's, I say just move 'em to centre and back simply based on the general comments from this thread. disclaimer: I own 6 B2's and may be...

    Athena Audition

    Best Buy used to have the F2's and B2's online, and has everything else. I am not sure why they are dropping the top Athena's via online, FutureShop up here (BB owns them)also no longer offers the top ones online. I recall their pricing so it gives you a good priceguide on the max you should...

    Has "Dodgeball" been edited?

    I am sure the version I saw in theatres said 'cock flavored lollipop'. I wonder what version us Canadians got on DVD. I will have to track someone down who owns it, since I have on plans on it.

    ***Official SHAUN OF THE DEAD Discussion Thread

    Went and saw it last night in a preview and loved it. It truely was a romantic comedy horror and one of the better movies I've seen this year. I highly recommend it as well worth your theatre bucks unless the only movies you like are "huge blockbuster mega-buck hits", as David mentioned it...

    CSI: NY ongoing thread

    I didn't much like it at all, it didn't feel like CSI. No wit, no unique personalities, just in your face intensity and dark grittiness filled with vanilla characters. If it didn't have "CSI" in the title, no one would have been able to convince me it wasn't just "crime drama #4". I was also...

    Canadian gets ARRESTED bringing THRILLER DVD across the border!

    One time I really baffled them when I brought back 12 jars of Reese Peanut Butter (can't buy it up here) from a trip south. They popped open the trunk and I watch 1 customs person turn into 2, then 3 through my rear-view. Then the customs guy comes up and goes "that must be some tasty peanut...

    How is Eraserhead?

    I hated the movie (the wife is the Lynch fan) but was totally blown away by the picture quality of the restoration he did, it may as well have been filmed yesterday and hand delivered to your house. And having the box stare at you from the DVD rack always draws comments.

    Corner Gas Season 1 Coming To DVD!!!

    I completely agree with Jim, I've enjoyed the show alot. I will be sitting at home having a mini-fest on release day :) There is the occasional joke or reference that only a Canadian would get, but really you could transplant the town to any flat prarie state and imagine your crazy uncle is...

    Howard the Duck?

    I'd buy it the day it's released. And I wouldn't change a thing about that movie, it's perfectly bad exactly the way it was and thats what makes it perfect.

    Cheesiest movies you'd love to see on DVD?

    WOOHOO for The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai across the 8th Dimension coming out! Where else can you see a brain- surgeon/physicist/daredevil/rock star/samuari "stud" in red plastic glasses drive his rocket equipped pickup truck 500mph through a mountain and then have him spend the rest of...

    Quintuplets

    I just caught it for the first time tonight and totally agree, its garbage. I don't get the concept, these kids are quintuplets? They don't even look related, let alone within 6 years of each other. Lame run through the treadmill stories and jokes. GIVE ME BACK ARCTU!! sad. sad. sad. Oh...

    Tour of Duty question

    Thanks for letting us know Todd. That's disappointing and I will not be buying it now specifically due to that. It saddens me because they will view the poor sales as a reason to not release more sets, not as a customer reaction to a poor decision in the initial release. You are right...

    Cashier's inadvertently recommending F/S over W/S

    I hadn't been in a video store in a while and was pleasantly surprised when I recently walked into a local Roger's Video (big chain in Canada) and saw little cards all around the store that showed a FullScreen and WideScreen image side by side and explained the difference.

    Samurai Trilogy boxset question

    http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASI...684308-7876328 Amazon has more information about the movies, and has chapter breakdown. The reviewer guy hasn't seen the Crit versions so its hard to compare. But he does mention that it has burnt in subtitles, a bit hued to the red, and he was happy...

    Any word on Andy Richter?

    Fox seems great at killing their own shows with timeslot shuffles. I guess they make all their money with crap reality tv and Springer reruns and relegate their other departments to the basement. Hope it eventually bites them in the ass. I'd snap up an Andy boxset in a second, the show was...

    how to- adire tempest connection?

    Last minute confusion. When connecting a Tempest (dual voice coil) using just the single voice coil, they say the other voice coil is "shorted". They mean just connecting the pos/neg of that second voice coil to each other, right? or just leaving them alone?

    Will bass boost be a problem?

    I've done the exact same thing, a sub205r and tempests, figuring later I can alter the boost if it's an issue. Bob verified its the same kind of change as the PE amps (resistors) but they don't have the wiring sheets for it yet (since they don't have the amp yet). Can't imagine it will be a...

    SVS packaging

    That picture needs to get sent some VP at UPS. That's just nasty treatment, lol, in all my Ebay purchases I've never seen anything close to that kinda package abuse. I'm suprised they even delivered it.

    Hsu Research subs

    Christopher is correct. Canadian ordering is suspended from HSU until their Canadian distributor sets up. I think its going to be a "order from HSU, sent from the Canadian company" type thing to reduce shipping. http://www.hsuresearch.com/forum/showthread.php?t=687

    You Won't Bleive It (SVS 25-31)

    If you dont want to snag a meter and avia/DE right away you could try just making a quite tone test and play it. Say make a 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 etc, hertz tone that does each for 10 seconds and make sure your getting output at each hz level. I know I read a thread either here or avs a few...

    phase....what and why.

    More information is never hijacking! :D I've learned lots just from this bit. I don't know if its helped me determine why someone would buy a pro-amp/sub combo instead of a same-wattage plate-amp/sub but at least I understand better why proamps don't think to include it. Is phase...

    phase....what and why.

    I tried doing some searching to answer this question...I'm sure its covered somewhere...alas.... I "think" I more or less understand what phase adjustability is, but it sure would be nice if someone had a link to "Phase for Dummies". Why do most plate sub amps have adjustable phase tuning...

    DVD Review HTF Review: Schindler's List (Highly Recommended!)

    Is there another link that mentions that? I couldn't find it on the korea site. If its true does it means they fit the movie, english DTS and Japanese DD and DTS onto one disk? (If I'm reading he dubbing and audio section right that is the audio the dvd has).

    Criterion Eraserhead?

    It's minimum $30US to ship it anywhere outside the States. I almost fell over in my seat when I saw 30bucks shipping to Canada. I had to send them an email asking if their site was accidently giving the shipping charge for China instead. For that much shipping Lynch himself had better be...

    well from looking at redflagdeals you already know about TigerDirect :P avdeals carries Benq but doesnt list the 6100. projectorscanada and projectorsplus have it but for more than Tiger. That ends my knowledge of Canadian online dealers that carry Benq. You might even want to print out...

    American Tail DVD series @ $6.99 each

    http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...=american+tail That thread discusses the aspect ratio for American Tail. Animated at 1.33:1, theatrically shown cropped (as intended) at 1.85:1. So, depending on how you feel, either.

    What programs need C-Dilla?

    Mechwarrior 4:Mercenaries. A bone of contention for all online players as we accuse it of causing framerate lag. I know a tax program uses it too, but the specific one and year eludes me.
