    What would you buy with $3000?

    Mikey and Robert dudes, Bose blows. You dudes are experiencing the BOSE DECEPTION EFFECT (BDE). It's a little studied phenomenon whereby the speakers are actually transmitting a soothing inaudible sound that the stimulates the brain producing a reaction similiar to the taste of hot fudge on a...

    Are transducers the next HT frontier?

    Dudes, I'm looking to purchase a buttkicker GAMER (coming in August I understand) to attach to my chair when I'm gaming. Now I am also going to experiment with music and movies both on my computer and projected on my big screen in the living room. As this device is low output since it's...

    Architect Frank Gehry's Latest Creation

    Dudes, The Falling Water cantilever story that I heard had it that the engineer wanted to place twice as many metal rebar in the concrete but that Wright over ruled that and said the original quantity was sufficient. I don't care who said what; it's just an indication that egos, costs, lack...

    My house has a reall eerie feel to it sometimes.

    Stephen dude, Bro, take a chill pill and think about what a house really is. Before I became a remodeller/builder I used to look at houses from a "mystical" sense but now I just think of them as a collection of wood, plaster, some metal, a little asphalt, concrete, and paint. Put a glass...

    Architect Frank Gehry's Latest Creation

    Dudes, My understanding is that a lot of his designs have SEVERE performance flaws with regards to snow and ice during the winter and spring thaw. As an actual builder of structures, I find that to be unforgivable. As for the aesthetics, I find it cartoonish, but even an unnattractive...

    Plus Piano HE 3200 and ASUS Digimatrix problem

    Chris dude, I have the He 3200 and occasionally hook it up to my Shuttle pc with no problems. Have you tried hooking up the projector to any other p.c. through the DVI to find out whether the problem is coming from the projector or the Digimatrix? I'm wondering if there is some kind of copy...

    Dvd Player Needed!

    John Dude, I wouldn't bother if the dvd player already is packaged with an s-video cable. If that's not the case then a mid-level set of cables from your local audio/video store/chain will be a bit of overkill now, and acceptable when you upgrade in the future. Don't feel any pressure to buy...

    please help, I'm getting desparate...

    Anthony dude, Did you buy this thing new? If so, then take it back and have them show you how to do it. If it's used/return then you now know why it was available. Good luck dude, Chester

    Dvd Player Needed!

    John dude, We need more information. What is the type of display you have and image dimensions. Do you need progressive scan? Do you also want to play audio cds and dvds? Finally, do you think the Green Party is making a mistake shunning Ralph Nader in the upcoming presidential election...

    Looking for advice on a weird room.

    Dude, At a minimum you'll need to place some kind of dampening material around the middle of the two side walls. I moved from a rectangular listening room with great acoustics to a square living room that sounds lifeless.....sigh As for the sloped ceiling I would place the front speakers...

    DLP Rainbow Progress Thread

    Anthony dude, Don't worry about the rainbow effect so much. On my Plus Piano HE-3200 which has a 4-times color wheel (i think) I notice a flash of rainbow ONCE in a while. It doesn't bother me, doesn't give me headaches, and I could care less. Now when I upgrade my projector within a year or...

    Story about a girl(personal experience)

    Antonio dude, Forget the 214 other messages of advice and listen to mine. She gave you her e-mail = she's interested in you She told you she has a boyfriend = she's unavailable (for now) She gave you her e-mail = when she's available she'll be interested in you (asking her out)...

    Netflix Copycat comes to Canada - Does anybody care?

    Dudes, Netflix here in Kalifornia (uber alles) is great and worth the price once you factor in the cost of gas and time in getting to a video store. I can't imagine going to a video store again unless I NEED something same day. As long as Zip carries a diverse enough selection as does Netflix...

    Dudes, The guy who created DVD Shrink should work on a full version that incorporates ALL dvd authoring needs. At that point I would lay prone before his feet rythmically chanting his name. Dudes, Chester

    DVD Player R.I.P. and its Replacement

    Freddy Prinz dude, I hear Porky's (the original) downs a lot of dvd players so you're not alone. The latest generation of Sonys are getting pretty close to the "famous" de-interlacers so I wouldn't worry about that so much especially if your viewing screen is under 35 inches. Porkys rules...

    HSU or SVS which should I choose?

    Dave dude, Damn...the Ice Dogs....I haven't lived in the LBC for over 14 years so I have no idea what that is. Maybe ice hockey with a shorty barrel shotgun but I dunno. Harbor City blows. Have you picked a subwoofer yet? Dude, Chester
