After the stellar A Small Light (2023), we decided to go straight into another story about the Holocaust during WW2.
Similar to A Small Light, it shows the bonds of family, even when hundreds of miles apart, the resilience, the courage, and, of course, the horrors.
We have finished the 4th...
I've seen the first 4 episodes so far. Pretty cool (figuratively and literally) murder mystery with plenty of internet era context (AI, social media, amateur sleuths, etc.). Has some Mare of Easttown mixed with Glass Onion vibes.

I posted a few photos from a mini meet in San Francisco with Andy Melomet: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/t/325066/northern-california-meet-being-planned-for-january-2013 Not the greatest lighting as the sun was harsh but some interesting sights. Hope you enjoy! Joe
Hi all, looks like my email is being bombarded with "delivery failure" emails. Anyone know what I can do to stop these? Not too familiar with this continuous spam. Seems like one is being sent every few secs. Thanks! Joe
Hi, for all those who have a PS3... when I power up my PS3, the startup screen now has a purple background rather than black. I have upgraded to v1.90 but had been playing a lot of SD-DVDs lately and hadn't noticed the purple hue. Is this a function of the new firmware or do I have...
Hi, Can anyone tell me what the approx weight of a single (boxed) CS Plus 20-39 sub is? Also, a boxed Samson S1000 amp? I can't seem to find the specs on the SVSound web page. Thanks in advance!! Joe

Hello, Haven't been to the Music area for a while...I notice Keith H hasn't posted since about April this year. Any news? Is he on hiatus? He was a good source of knowledge. Thanks! Joe
Hi all, I’m considering using a BFD to equalize my subs’ response. Looking at Snapbug’s excellent site, he provides test tones in MP3 format, or, thru a converter program, in WAV format. Sorry if the following are basic questions… My DVD player can play MP3, but I’ve never done so. If I...
Hi all, Due to a projector upgrade, I am looking to sell my Plus Piano HE3100 DLP projector (www.plushometheater.com). This is a perfect match for DVDs, as it has a 4:3, 800x600 mode, plus a 16:9, 848x480 mode for all those anamorphic discs. Links to reviews It is 2 years old, but...
Hi all, I have a dual SVS 20-39CS+ setup, with one in each corner at the front of my HT (see http://forum.av123.com/photopost/sho...er=374&thumb=1 for some pix). This afternoon I put on the re-issued DTS Jurassic Park (with the massive LFE) just to have some fun. During the T-Rex attack...
Maltin is perceived to have an affiinity for older movies rather than more modern ones. The number of films he has awarded in the last 10 years (in his movie guide) or so seem to bear testament to this...the ones I know of are Schindler's List, Little Women, and Cider House Rules. Any others he...
