best news of the day. thanks for the review.

I am pumped for the release of LOZ:TP. I am a huge Zelda fan. Because of Zelda and Mario alone, I will continue to support and buy Nintendo products. As sad as it makes me, I believe that Nintendo will be out of the home console market in 8 years. They will switch over to software and the...

I didn't realize that it was a joke. I just thought that some progammer liked the band or liked the connection to the Sega Genesis. I think I am just a little slow today. anyway, back on topic... Contra (NES) - How cool was that game. That game is a blast to play (I still play it) by...

I never knew that, interesting. But Brett really is right, all I cared about was that I had a Sega and I got to see blood and those with a SNES didn't. I wonder what the teachers thought of us kids on the playground swapping methods of various types of head removal for that game?

I'm sure you are right. Although the BABACABB always worked for me, so I guess the extra B at the start didn't hurt anything. Just goes to show you how bad elementary kids are at communicating video game codes. Ahh...the days before the internet was what it is now.

Oregon Trail - Rafting down the Columbia River. I was probably about 5 at the time when I played it and I thought that the rafting section was really really hard. Stayed up till like 2am playing that with my grandpa. Karate (NES) - This was the first NES game that I remember playing. I was so...

Thanks for bringing this thread up. I was just about to get some more info from you guys. Philip, thats awesome that you got your mmf 5. what components are you using other than your mmf 5? what do you mean by record cleaning system in place? Are you planning on a big expensive machine, or do...

sounds like this may be the setup I am going with. I was just browsing ebay and came across this place selling 1A power supplies for the NAD pp-2 saying that the factory 100mA is too small and that their larger power supply will give better response. is their any truth in this? philip, I will...

I want to finally get a turntable and I have to do so on a budget. My reciever is a HK 210 with no phono stage and using NHT speakers. i am looking into the music hall 2.1 turntable and the NAD pp-2 preamp. I have read that these are both respected components for the price. Does anyone know...

if you are going to go with a creative muvo2, go with a hacked muvo2 4GB model. That is what I have. You can get a 512MB muvo2 for about $70, brand new, but the warranty will be voided if you do that hack and remove the 4GB microdrive and sell it on ebay. My dad took the microdrive to use in...

I was able to track down one of the new curvey analog spl meters about 3 weeks ago. I had to go to 3 different Radio Shacks before I found one that had it in stock.

I was lucky enough to see this at my college about a week ago with a Q&A with Kaufman and Gondry. Initial impression was just completely blown away. I had no knowledge of the film going in and was just sort of stunned coming out. I think Gondry's experience with music videos really helps this...

Yeah, I don't know what is up with the terminology. The concert on Disc 1 has both DD 5.1 and a stero 2 channel PCM track. I prefer the PCM over the 5.1 I'm pretty sure that everything else on the discs is the 2 channel PCM. Long live the D!

Hi, My friend is in the process of building his first respectable (he's had enough of his aiwa shelf system) and is looking for suggestions for a sub. He already has the receiver and speakers HK AVR 130 Ascend CBM 170s He likes the look of the JBL S120Pii but has heard conflicting...

Thanks for the replies guys. I appreciate them. Mike, What exactly is DAD? does that mean that the Blue Train advertised in Amazon's dvd-a section isn't dvd-a? You said that most people thought the sacd isn't much better than the DAD version, so should I just get the sacd because I have no...

Hey all, I was just interested in which version of Blue Train you thought gave the best sound. Either the dvd-audio, sacd, or cd? I am starting to get into jazz and thought I should start with the classics. Anything else you could recommend would be great too. I NEED Bitches Brew to come...

This is my first post here at the htf, but I have been reading for a few months now. This is a really cool place and I learn tons, thanks. anyways...as PCU is one of my favorite movies I naturally bought it the day it came out after years of waiting. My girlfriend and I were comparing it to...
