Turntable.fm
Are any of you guys using this? I just got an invite tonight via Facebook and it's really fun to play with and an excellent way to find new music. I have no clue of what quality is streaming, but it's pretty decent and this for fun anyway! Here's a review of the website since it can...- Lazerboy2000

Front ported speakers $200-300?
Hey guys, I'm looking to get new speakers (upgrade from my HK Soundsticks II) for xmas but due to fairly limited space it'd be best if they're front ported. Originally I was looking at getting A5's or Bx5a's, but those are obviously ported in the back. I'd also like them to be active since...- Lazerboy2000

Pa2v2 static
I've had my pa2v2 for a while now and it's been working great. Yesterday I noticed it's having static unless I put the volume to about 12 o'clock which is past comfortable listening level. I put new batteries in it (Duracell AA alkaline) which helped a little bit but the static is still...- Lazerboy2000

Snell J3 speakers?
I've found some local Snell J3's for sale locally. I tried doing some research but there isn't much information out there on these. Apparently the J series was hand-made in the late 1980's before the maker died? They're listed in used, but "looks like new" condition for $100. I'm already...- Lazerboy2000

Now that I've moved into my Apt, i'm looking at hopefully upgrading my speakers from Harman/Kardon Soundsticks II.
