Argh...you said the “B” Word. Not good advise...really. For the person who may be actually trying to get something useful out of this, stay away from Bose or any “Home Theater in a Box”. These systems are as close to a PC Speaker System as you can get. Spend the time to research systems from Company’s like Klipsch who have…

thanks for the response mr.audio.

I’m sorry, I got you confused with the other guy, dm.  Of course you’re not new at this.  Amen to your last post.  It’s sad but true that audiophiles are becoming a dying breed.  Apparently, most people don’t care about what music sounds like, but care only that they can hear it.  One of my friends has a HTIB (a…

It isn’t true that you bought the lifetime subscription on the box, not the tivo service.  Way back when I bought my lifetime, it was on any and every box you would purchase after that.  So I bought a Tivo and the lifetime.  A year later I bought Tivo, and it was covered by my lifetime subscription.  I didn’t have…

New...no. I have been into sound systems since my first stereo that I bought from Lafayette Radio Electronics and my Speakers from Electrovoice. I moved to a quad system with a TEAC 4 track player ... for those of us who go that far back, that was the first surround sound system for Consumers.  I have mixed sound for live…

Well soundsorcerer, it seems you know alittle more than the average newbee.  That is if you are new at all this.

I was one of the fortunate attendees at the 2001 CES show that experienced the 10.2 demo provided by Thomlinson Holman. It was indeed stunning...but it wasn’t limited to mixes that provided the “best seat in the house” perspective. The Herbie Hancock track placed the listener amongst the instruments. As a record label that releases exclusively newly recorded surround music…

Mr. Audio certainly is getting to the meat of the subject. As one can tell from his explanation, there is really a lot that needs to be considered in a complete home theater system. Speakers are just part of the chain. Taking into consideration matching your speakers to the receiver or amplifier, properly sizing the speakers to the environment, proper…

I’m disappointed.  No Gig ethernet :-( Apple’s Airport Extreme --although a different product really-- for about the same cost gives you a wireless router (802.11n plus a,b and g), a print server as well as USB ports to allow USB drives to be attached making it a NAS too. “No, I’m not a Mac devotee.  I hate Mac and Windows…
