  1. whatever lets me play back from the PC without adding another box...
  2. the networking feature interests me. would there be any reason to pick up a networking receiver if the oppo already has it?
  3. all the real mexicans come in and order beef tongue (lengua) so i gotta stay authentic
  4. guarache with beef tongue

    slow forum

    YouTube - Kid falls during ASU vs UCLA LOL at the replays
  7. i've used about 4000 5mm red LEDs and never had 1 dud
  8. my omen setup is pretty poor at the moment, but i think they will be lacking in the treble for my tastes do it as a 3rd option to try? Zu Omen vs Quad 22L vs http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?spkrfull&1295645333&/Thiel-CS-2-2-
  9. whatever i end up with will also be on the TV rig. so, i have a feeling you'll be right.
  10. too bad i won't be able to evaluate the Omens and postjack's Quads in new place by the time this sale is over. Mike, pull some strings
  11. Home - Zu Audio now Omen bookshelves and a big Omen too. i'm surprised to see they actually put the Omens at the price they said they would be, $1500. i have a feeling there will be many sales opportunities in the future @ $1k.
  12. got a card about this in the mail...dont know if there's anything good http://paypal-shopasia.com/
  13. i think this is where I will end up and im looking at the Samsung UN55C7000, or UN46C8000 if 46" is the right size. too bad LCD jumps 46" to 55". i think 50" is perfect but thats plasma only.
  14. Best Buy's "sale" prices on the TVs I've looked at are so close to Amazon pricing it wouldn't be worth the hassle. Your state's sales tax may change your opinion.
  15. Bingo?

  18. do the foam mattresses feel warm? i like cold
  19. what color are they? my CFLs are 2700K and it was close enough to incandescent for me. they only save money in the summer. but they paid for themselves in 2 months. dropped my electric bill about $15/mo for 6 bulbs.
  20. are there switching supplies in every bulb? my experience w/ CFLs has been the switching power supply starts to die long before the specified lifespan of the bulb
  21. i'm not 100% sure if i will keep the omen's, i'll wait until i move and then see how they are. i can't turn them up above conversation level in this apartment. the room they'll be going into is 20x22'. i will probably be using a solid state AV receiver with them of at least 50W per channel. there are a few other sub-$1k floorstanders i may get to compare.
  22. They're based here and as far as I know there are only 2 stores. When you return something, it often ends up in the outlet section as an open box, which can be a way to get something at Amazon pricing with no shipping hassles.
  23. i noticed this in 2 places...Best Buy, and the Crutchfield store. They were current models, however it should be noted that these days most plasma buyers are those who want a big screen at cheaper than LCD prices, so most stores don't carry the high-end plasmas. Both stores did have overhead fluorescent lights. Best Buy's sets were hooked up to whatever distribution setup they have, Crutchfield's setup was a bit better. it was very annoying. For me, glare is also going to be a significant issue.
  24. what's with the flickering on plasma? my eyes were burning after 5 minutes of looking at them in the stores
  25. jerk, my pulled oblique really hurts
