    Avatar 2

    Just dreadful. We left after 2 hours ready to slit our wrists. What a mental masturbation pos. Yes, we need to be nice to each other and the planet. Doesn't take 3 hours to make the point. And don't try to manipulate me, there's enough bad shite in the real world to cry about. That said...

    Best Christmas tracks/albums for audiophiles

    PCM versus bitrate

    using ARC Hdmi from my tv to a receiver. Is there a definite advantage to using PCM over bitrate out to stream from tv for music?. The disadvantage of PCM is that, at least in my x3500, it doesn't deliver dolby surround soundtracks for movies.

    To Atmos or not

    We're all looking for the best sound. Perhaps some here not in movies, but I am. Got 2 extra very adequate atmos speakers after upgrading fronts. Receiver can accomodate atmos and I play music in stereo so nothing to lose there. Huge room but it already sounds very good to me for movies...

    Favorite tracks to appreciate your speakers

    Assuming a quality source, what are some of your favorite tracks to confirm the quality of your equipment or someone else's? I favor songs I know well and/or have seen live in a good venue. Here are 3 from me to start: Rob Ickes and Trey Hensley "Pride and Joy", Haley Westenra "Dark Waltz"...
