Wasn’t that Matthew’s?

Maybe if I was 6. :)

Obviously, Mike can call it what he wants. I still say it's stupid. :)

As long as it doesn't get saddled with another stupid cutesy shortened name like "Jormmy."

I met my second ex-wife at the Tower Records in Campbell, CA where she was the buyer.

Them's fightin' words. :)

If you're in Chicago you shoulda had a real pizza:

Question for the gathered masses: has anyone here ever heard Q Acoustics loudspeakers?

But actually, it's close enough that, if it really matters to you, just "split the difference" and both will be good. :)

My Anthem pre-pro handles the digital heavy lifting. :)

You can almost get X3 Tyrs on a typical 15-amp US household circuit as long as you never crank it up, but if there's anything else that circuit be prepared for popping breakers. Dedicated 20-amp lines per 3 amps would be better.

My Anthem pre-pro allows me to set multiple listening profiles that activate or deactivate the proper speakers for the listening session. For example, if I want 2-channel music I have two profiles setup: Music 1 which is just the front L+R mains, and Music 2 which is L+R+ Front Subs. I don't...

My old THX brain loves you. :metal:

I have no idea what gasoline costs here...

Thanks for the tips on ATMOS content. In a properly mixed Dolby surround soundtrack, the center channel actually carries more important information than the mains. I always recommend matching speakers and amps for the "front three" when you can, or at least make sure the center is able to...

Yea... I've never really thought much about adding ATMOS channels to my HT setup, but using a Kraken might be the ticket to experiment with it.

Always get a cheeseburger to go.

They came up on my random playlist this morning. I forgot how great they were.

Kraken = great new product. Perfect for a small HT system. Congrats!

Just like me watching every submarine movie ever made.

Tubes? I suggest “What Do You Want From Life?” “White Punks On Dope” and “Sushi Girl.”

Speaking of cheap wine, I always tell my daughter she owes her existence to Annie Green Springs and her mother’s fondness for it.

I didn't read your other thread comments, so I still have no idea what issue you are seeking help with, but if Schiit says there is nothing wrong with your Lyr then the issue lies elsewhere. If you fully describe what you ar experiencing perhaps we can better help you here?
