After whining about Illinois and Chicago politics for the last year, who does the Limbaugh Zombie Party put up to give their anti-Obama speech and become their new icon?

Yup, a guy from Louisianna!

Who used to be a conressman with ties to New Orleans!

About the only state and city more corrupt than Illinois and Chicago!

The guy changed his name from Piyush to "Bobby."

Raised a pagan Hindu until "converting" to Christianity in high school.

If he were a Democrat, JIMV and the other canaries would being crying themselves to sleep over this guy!

?

This is a direct quote from a forum member who has listed the numerous members he has placed on "ignore".

It would appear to raise the question, what is the purpose of a discussion forum?

Good morning,

This is my first post as a new member to his forum. My hobby is collecting and restoring old tube radios and I recently had the good fortune to acquire a Quad II stereo system consisting of 2 amps, the tuner as well as the controller.

Could some one tell me what are the differences in sonic charecteristics of a box type speaker (eg. the Harbeths and Spendor Classics) vs more commonly found tower type floor standing speakers and why? Is one of them more ideal? Usually the bookshelf speakers are like boxes and if we were to make floor standers I would expect the same aspect ratio for the cabinet or vice versa (but I have never seen thin looking hifi bookshelf speakers)...any comments.

Hi

Anyone got any experience with these pre/powers ?

Any thoughts or comments welcome

Alan

Hi all, this is my first post

I am a college student, and I have always loved my music, so I have decided to save up and build myself a hi-fi stereo system this summer (I am currently using a Bose Companion 2 Speaker System......not quite hi-fi lol).

I'm looking for several people near me (Western Connecticut, Northern NJ, NYC) to loan a single full-range loudspeaker for an interesting research project. If willing, please email me from my personal site www.ethanwiner.com including your real name, address, and phone number.
