    Ever is a very long time. Maybe by the time Intel is on 14++++++++++.

    With the exception of about 40 retail store employees in the New York area Verizon Wireless is completely non-union. This strike is being driven by union employees at Verizon landline. The biggest sticking point in the negotiations has been regarding medical contributions. The rest of the...

    Have We Exceeded Our Computer Storage Needs?

    I have 3TB now in addition to my SSD. I probably won't upgrade that until the drive dies. I'll just keep adding space to my NAS.

    PSB Image B4 Speakers $179.99/pair Crutchfield

    I ended up doing the same. I have them hooked up as computer speakers to an SMSL 50x2 t-amp and they sound great. Paired with a PSB subwoofer they would be fantastic.

    PSB Image B4 Speakers $179.99/pair Crutchfield

    Just an update. The NAD and the PSBs sound epic together. I'm thrilled already and knowing they will only continue to get better over the next week or two is exciting. This was the best hot deal I've seen on the [H].

    PSB Image B4 Speakers $179.99/pair Crutchfield

    My Image B5's showed up yesterday and my initial response is wow! They sound fantastic with my NAD 325BEE powering them. They are quite punchy for only 5" drivers. I can't wait to see how they sound over the next couple of weeks as they fully break in. I'm quite pleased to say the least.

    PSB Image B4 Speakers $179.99/pair Crutchfield

    I have a set of those wires and I actually prefer their deadbolt banana plugs. I bought 50 feet of KnuKonceptz Karma Kable twisted 12 gauge wire and have been making my own cables. I've been very pleased with the results. The Sewell deadbolts are the best plugs I've used. Once they are...

    PSB Image B4 Speakers $179.99/pair Crutchfield

    Thanks for posting this. I've been lusting over some PSBs ever since I heard them locally at a high end audio dealer. I decided to ante up for the Image B5s. For the $249 price I don't think anything else can touch them. The only downside is the Dark Cherry was sold out so I ended up going...

    iPhone Scam That Targets The Poor

    The Denver Police have been investigating this for quite some time. I filed a police report about 3 years ago after we determined that a five line new account was fraud and we had to eat it. The scam artist certainly didn't look like a homeless guy. My suspicions started when they didn't want...

    Good cans 100-150 range?

    I have the ATH-M50's and I really like them. I can't say I've compared them back to back with lots of high end cans, but they sound good to my ears. I guess that is what really matters. They certainly sound far superior to any of that Beats crap you'll find at the big box stores. It is tough...

    Budget PC speakers - whats the popular route?

    Glad to hear you are enjoying the Miccas. The more I listen to them the more I like them. They are the best audio purchase I've made for the dollar in quite some time.

    wifi audio receiver

    You said no Bluetooth, but have you really considered one of the new 4.0 receivers and ruled it out? The newer ones using the apt-x technology are getting favorable reviews for sound quality. It isn't an audiophile solution, but it probably would be the easiest for what you are trying to...

    Corsair H100i $69.99

    That is a great deal on an excellent cooler. I don't need another at the moment, but it's almost worth picking up a spare for my next build. Hmmmm...

    Klipsch Promedia 5.1 Ultra's Dieing. What next?

    You might want to read through the Budget PC Speakers thread in this forum. There are a few of us with the Micca MB42x speakers who love them. For the price they are amazing. I'm currently using mine without a sub, but I am considering adding one. There are lots of choices in T-amps. Topping and...
