"So I got drunk, and I went into the parlor and said "Give me a picture of that cow on the cheese 'cuz I love that cheese. Give me that cow on that cheese". See this? That's right it's the bannana lady from the bannanas. I get drunk one night, and now my body looks like a grocery store. Dont get a tattoo. Play soccer."

Coach Mcguirk is so wise.

Well the only reason is because I have a teacher that said if I take the speakers apart that you have cause she has a pair for her class to take apart, but she said if I take them apart and show her everything then she will give them to me for free.

The speakers are coming out of a Sony CMT-CP100, which I have hooked up to my audigy. Nothing too fancy, but my headphone amp comes next week!

1. i go to cornell university, and im showing off my school pride. i guess. haha! the cup is the only cornell merchandise i have other than a pair of windpants.
2. those are sony speakers, not polk, but they still sound great.
3. they are grado sr60's, soon to be driven by a cmoy amp. i'll post pics when it comes next week.
 
Not in college yet, but any comments in general about the use of subwoofers and loud music in general? I want to build at 10" Dayton Titanic MKIII 350watt kit sub, or maybe I could settle for the cheaper 10" dayton 100watt finished sub.

Oh, and I remember I saw a pic of Rocket ELS in one of the nice wood finishes, anybody care to link or repost that pic? Thanks

which sony models? id love to get a couple of those :D

and how are they powered/hooked up?
Click to expand...

they actually look fancier than they actually are. i have a 1/8 inch - RCA adapter going from my audigy to a Sony CMT-CP100. The speakers came with the stereo but I took off the speaker grills to get a more transparent sound. the stereo is not in the picture but instead sits on my bookshelf. i bought some monster cable CL3 rated speaker cables to hook the speakers up. they are 30x2 watts = 60 watts total, more than enough for my tiny apartment bedroom.

I have the 2.1 set of those speakers. They're decent sounding. The only things I don't like is that the mid-bass is somewhat overbearing and there is no bass level control. Plus the low bass is non-existant since it's like a 4" sub. I think the drivers up top sound better than my Z-640s though.
 
In residence how do some of you guys run multiple computers? Wireless Router? ICS?

I'm going to Laurier this coming fall (woowoo :cool: ) and I wanted to know how you did it. I plan on takign my Shuttle and a Powerbook that I'll be buying in the spring.
 
just bring a hub/switch. plug it into the wall and let the schools dhcp server do the rest.

A lot of colleges won't allow individual wireless networks in the dorms, so you may just have to run a hub/switch. But if your college allows it, get the airport express with your mac. It's quite nice. If we were allowed wireless networks, it's what I would use...wink, wink...
 
at my school if you try to add anything with a built in dhcp server ( like a router, wired or wireless) they instantly shut off your rooms lan connection for 24 hours. it is however possiable to do a wireless network using as long as you disable dhcp on your router/routing pc.

what happens if you plug in a computer with 2 NICs and use it as a small server? They shouldnt be able to tell...or if you clone the mac address of an existing computer on the lan.
 
thats what i did for a while to hook up my xbox so i could play live
