Anthony - Do you live in DC? I want to say you work there, but I do not know if you live inside 495. I ask because I am thinking about relocating sometime next year to DC or NoVA. Glad to see you are doing well! We should meet up sometime when you aren't busy!

Interesting, Dave. The shear size of the problem and the magnitude of the numbers are just amazing (if not depressing).

Hi Anthony - Long time, no talk. How are you doing in DC? Quick question - how do you know that taxes, alone, were the driving force behind the economic success in the early to mid 90s? I ask because almost every time I try to get into anything economic, it's just very complicated and taxes...

Interesting take, Kevin. Hit 'em where it counts--the wallet (?). But I also wonder since our congress can't get anything done and if the Bush cuts simply expire I guess Obama ends up getting a larger tax increase than he plans for and this also impacts almost everybody. I think my taxes go...

Perhaps some context is also needed, Dave. I don't think that making $125k (for a single filer) in the Washington DC area is all that much money (in my opinion). However if I was living in rural West Virginia, I'd imagine I could buy some palatial estate...

I never lost power either. Just some downed tree branches and leaves everywhere. NY/NJ and some other parts of the NE certainly got hammered. When you live in the DC area it's quite common to meet others who are from NJ/NY area (or have families up there). I think in some way, we are all...

Steve - I always like it when our members sit back, relax, and just ramble on about they see, hear, and experienced. It's all good. Find some cool stuff and take some pictures for us!

We love your commentary, Tim. The more, the better. I need to put this on the calender for next year. I loved this event!

I've been playing since I was 10. Then I stopped for a while and during a summer while I was in college helped run junior clinics in Florida. I play in a league once a week. I like the friendly competition, the course, the exercise (I use a cart), and the fellow players. It's my escape for...

It's a matter of context. If you have big speakers, a big room, and want to listen to music at a moderately loud level - you'll need an amp that can throw out some current, especially if the source material demands a swing to a lower ohm regime. If you have a small home office and like to have...

Yeah the gains between the amps may be different. Spike has sent me some info on how to match the gains. Otherwise it's possible that panels could be louder than the woofer, or vice versa.

Jon - Yes I have the Aerius i, so a passive bi-amp scheme is an option. I'd imagine it will be s ice step up and if I am feeling like taking on another challenge, I can always try the more advanced crossover bypass option too. Erik

Jon - I would like, at some point, to passively bi-amp at first since that does involve opening my speakers up and disabling the external circuitry. I have no knowledge on how this is done, nor do I know how to connect an external (electronic) crossover and configure it properly. I do not...

I think people have been running cables in, or through, plastic materials for many years. I think as you run the cables away from any electrical lines you won't have any electrical interference issues. I also wouldn't worry about the static charge of the PVC pipe too much. I think you'd have...

A ways back my roommate gave me his old Ipod Mini (first generation). I think the battery was going bad and opted not to fix it and bought another one. I ordered a replacement battery and would like to use the Ipod for my garage gym (and maybe also as a tabletop unit as well). Does anyone...

Ah a bit of nostalgia as this article came out about when I was just getting into this hobby (well at least just becoming aware of MLs!). I remember the Logan dealer stating that Fabio had a huge ML system at his house and he was no doubt referring to this article. Erik

I haven't visited a high end shop (local) for quite some time. There happens to be a nice little store not too far from where I live and the manager, Steve, couldn't have been a nicer guy. The store isn't the biggest place but they had a decent mix of some Krell gear, Integra, Totem, Klipsch...

I don't think Manning and Harbaugh would have come to an agreement on how to run the offense in SF. Considering that they narrowly missed going to the superbowl last season, there's not a whole lot to fix. That division is still rather weak (though Seattle looks to be improving) and there's...

You might get a wide range of responses since many of our forum members have a mixed bag of dedicated rooms that are fully treated with a suite of amps for each channel. Having said that I think you can do just fine with your existing amp and one of the newer models since they have internal...

A couple of years back I was in Denver at the RMAF and did visit Roger. Naturally I couldn't do an A/B comparison with his amps vs other similar amps, but I did like the sound. I was very impressed with Roger's equipment/setup. I only visited a handful of rooms a second time, and Roger was...
