    A suppressor is a good idea even with rounds as weak as a 380. I tend to not keep my guns on my desk though; but my weakest gun is a Browning HiPower (9mm) and it's still pretty loud with muffs, and if you'd have to fire it indoors, whoa it'd be painful.

    Does the [H] Still Review Sound Products?

    I always used a dedicated audio system and hooked my computer up to it. I have never had "computer speakers". Even at my work I run a receiver with bookshelves; and some sennheiser buds when people are around (be polite!). I absolutely hate headphones; and it's not for quality but rather I...

    Favorite Display Setups for Programming

    I'm running the same setup I've run since early 2009. A 40" Samsung LCD 1080p 60Hz HDTV with two portraited Dell 2209WAs at 1680x1050, well I guess here they're 1050x1680! The sides don't match pixel density wise but it's been acceptable. I'm hoping in the next year to replace it with a 40" 4k...

    Just ordered the Dell UltraSharp 2209WA

    I've decided to give them to a coworker for her to use at work. She works on a tiny little 19" 4:3 1280x1024 LCD to enter work orders and run reports; so she'd benefit a lot from the upgrade.

    Just ordered the Dell UltraSharp 2209WA

    Just out of curiousity, what would be the market for two used 2209WAs? They are A00 from a while back. I've used them daily for about 2 years and they are dead silent, have no discoloration or shifting and cosmetically are perfect. I have all packaging, plastic, paperwork and every cable for...

    So is eyefinity really worth it?

    Yay for forward thinking. Someday you'll make some unlucky woman horribly self-conscious and self-loathing. As far as eyefinity goes, try it. I run a setup with a 40" 1080P TV and 2 22" portraited side panels because I didn't care about eyefinity, but I could've gone with 2 more big TVs and...

    No comparison. The C-100s work for low volume near-field listening, but they are just a nice cheap desktop speaker ($100 they are great for new speakers). The C-8s can pump out the volume, have house-pounding bass, and sound leagues better at higher volumes. If someone were to find a nice...

    I'm in the dark most of the time, there are no windows in this room and all the light comes in the form of 2 75W incandescent bulbs. Cable management and carpet soon, can't part with my cube desk though... Today, me starting my weekend:

    I'm looking for a TV - LG 42LH4000?

    It depends on what surround sound, video upconversion and wattage among things. If you want a receiver that will do stuff like DTS-HD Master Audio and have a decent real power output, maybe $250-300 could get you one. I'm going on prices about 6-9 months old. Add in the prices for a starter...

    Record what you hear? (PC)

    You are looking for audio capture software. I use Total Recorder for little stuff I want audio from(you aren't getting top shelf quality), I use it because a friend had a license he didn't use anymore.

    Amp or Receiver + Speakers + Sub is a much better deal that $700 for that.

    Opinions on Energy Take 5

    Same here. I love my C-8s, and loved them years ago when I bought them.

    Opinions on Energy Take 5

    I haven't known anyone whose bought those for PC, but most that bought them on avsforum for even small bedroom speakers wished they'd gone bigger. You can get a set of Energy C-200s for $150(audioadvisor) that will blow those out of the water. You're better off starting with a better setup...
