Furor Arises Over Counterfeit Oyaide AC Plugs
By Jason Victor Serinus

Please note that this is a news article. I have no further information to share, and am thus unable to answer inquiries.

OK, I guarantee this has elements to piss off both liberals and conservatives so it must be good...............right ?

The US govt. shoud offer 6-10 year interest free loans to all QUALIFIED buyers who buy a US made car that is NOT a gas guzzler, no SUVs allowed.

Don't you think that would rescue the big 3 , foster energy independance through promoting fuel efficiency and lower the driving death toll because new cars are safer ?

This will please liberals.

Hola,

Question:

You play a recording and it sounds TERRIBLE!

After you pull it off the turntable, out of the CD tray, away from the 8-track player, or yank it out of your cassette deck, how do you re-set?

Back story:

Yesterday, went to melody Records and found a clencleanclean copy of Aja, and since my records are 600 miles away, I shot 2 bucks into Donald Fagen's pocket and took her home and cleaned her up and had my way with her.

But, I digress.

Where the hell are they? They better kick their asses back here right now.

Hello all! I

Hey All,
This site gave the JBL L880 speakers a pretty favorable review, but I was just interested to know if anyone here has heard them, or owns them.

Any takers?

Thanks!
Alex

I have been out of the loop for quite a while so I need to lean on you guys for some advice. I need some recommendations on interconnects from a new plasma HDTV to a Audio Research SP-16 preamp. Since neither my TV nor my DVD player are my main source of audio enjoyment, I want to keep the price reasonable. MonoPrice, Blue Jeans, etc.??

Thanks for your help.

As I have posted, I recently bought a Benchmark DAC1 that I like a lot. I first tried a cheap Philips DVD player as a source and that sounded awful. I broke out a old and quirky Optimus portable CD player with digital out and got very good sound, but the player was in the habit of stopping without notice or reason and all the options like track selection no longer worked so it was not a long term solution. It gave me a good soundstage and very clear highs, something I really liked. I bought a used Rotel 1070 to use as a transport and that has a completey different sound.

WTF!? How stupid and annoying is it that they hype this big 50 years of music book/package prominently featuring a RECORD being played, and they give you music collection on a USB driver?!!!!

And obviously it's lossy MP3s seeing as how it's 21 hours of music and they don't make 20GB USB thumb drives for under a couple hundred dollars. They have a lesser CD version it looks like too.
