    Best of MTV Unplugged (or similar)

    VH1 had a series called Storytellers. My favorite is the Dave Matthew and Tim Reynolds acoustic episode. It's good to watch. It's from when Dave was a drunk, and he was very drunk during the episode, good stories too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQv6erbDKKc

    Thanks for the replies, I might upgrade to the AD8397 one of these days. And I agree, the bass boost is a little much depending on the music.

    Phonak Audeo - Grey or Black Filters?

    I mostly use the black filters. Kind of depends on my mood, what I'm listening to, and how lazy I am about changing them. I love the option though.

    How noticeable would you say the treble boost is? I know it's only a 2.5 dB boost, but I just can't hear any difference. The 6 dB bass boost I can hear. Is my xm5 borked?

    Computer Builders: PSU problems?

    I don't think SLI or corssfire is going to draw much more than 450 watts under full load if that. Any company can make a fancy 1000 watt PSU. In the PSU department it's quality, not quantity. A 500 watt quality PSU would probably have worked just as well. PC Power and Cooling all the way.

    Is Nintendo Wii Really Worth It?

    Coming from another gamer, the Wii is very gimmicky. Wii fit is no substitute for a gym membership. Ok so a new controller is kind of cool, but pretty much a wireless mouse. Once you learn the physics of a particular game, say like tiger woods golf, you figure out that its easier to just...
