It may not be the receiver actually, I hooked up the speaker wires wrong, and one of them improved quite a bit, no popping. The other one still pops though. I am gonna open it up and see what the deal is (not that I know even what to look for ) I figure I will open it up, hit the cones a couple...

If you have a flea market local I would check that out. I saw a ton today...3 for $10. What I was really looking for is the Super Scope, the lady said she sold one last week for $20 NIB

Anyone have any inexpensive recommendations? Anything under $200 (less is better ) would be great, either vintage or new.

Soundwise they are very nice...the only problem I have is that my receiver can't drive them. Its obvious upon listening that its simply not doing anything for the treble. Also I am hearing static, but once again, I think this is the reciever. The connects need cleaning. Cosmetically though...

Wharfedale w70s = $50 I am beyond thrilled right now. I tried to talk the guy down to $40 but no dice. The ones at this site look exactly like mine, I will try to get some pics up of the ones I bought tonight. http://www.oaktreeent.com/web_photos...e_Ltd._web.jpg I also bought some...

If you have the wood, and an old PC laying around you can put together a MAME machine pretty inexpensively. Someday when I finish all the other projects I have been working on since the beginning of time I want to build a MAME machine.

As a general rule of thumb I hate stickers, but the ones I get that I like alot I stick to the sides of my CRT. For some reason that seems like an acceptable place to put stickers. Just dont cover any vents

I should chime in to second the recommendation for ICO, as far as I am concerned its the only TRULY masterpeice title sony has ever published *shudders at the thought of Siren* If you have a PS2 you really need to get this game. I don't think it was a lauch title, but it came pretty early in the...

The problem with the saved games could be with the carts battery (a very easy replace) or with the SNES itself. My SNES erases games, I find that if I hold down the cart during the load up its much less likely to do that. It needs the pin thingie replaced but I am too lazy to do it. Either way...

Mine is in super crappy condition but its 1001 Answers to Questions about Aquarium Fishes published in the 1920s. Its neat to see how far we have progressed, but also a very funny read in regards to some things people used to think about fish in general, and care of fish, ect. Others would be...

Such a good game. I do not normally watch football much at all, but I kept my eyes on this one. Go HORNS!

Go Texas! I excitedly watched the parade, my old HS marching band was in it. Allen Eagles...twice as many members as their where when I was in it....675

I guess I am the weird one....I open my cases like this all the time and leave that seal on all of my cds. Have for...5 years at least.

360 and Revolution for me. Sonys online leaves LOTS to be desired and 3 ps2s of mine broke this generation.

Its got an odd taste to it. Kinda tastes like a not so bad tasting cough syrup/soda water mix. Slightly thicker then the others too. Its not unpleasent tasting, and you only drink 6 oz at a time max anyway.

Yea that guy is funny. I think...if I am thinking of the right guy, he was the one who did the experiment about making a certain body part of his larger. Funny stuff.

Depends on what it is, if its a concert I would much rather have a tape off the soundboard then a fan tape, even if it the soundboard show is average and the taped show is outstanding. If I can't hear whats outstanding about the show then whats the point in having it?

I am definately a night person. In fact, I have to get up for work at 7 am tommorow and am none to pleased about it. I just plain dont fuction well in the AM. BTW, Redline blows all the other energy drinks out of the water Redline Its like legal crack in a can, and has the worlds longest...

Without a doubt its grapes. I could likely eat 100+ grapes in a sitting. Red grapes only though.

I often get to 50% on my iPod unamped. Much less then that when I am using an amp, but of course, its just as loud. I guess I will worry about it when I get there.

Yea..its got alot of weird buttons on it. One is a subsonic filter (I have no clue what the hell that is, doesnt seem to change the sound at all). It took me like 10 minutes worth of fiddling to figure out how to turn off the fm. Finally I pressed AM+FM and off it went. Lack of instruction...

I use spun as a source for cheap cds. I am not picky though, used or new as long as its cheap. All their used disks have always come to me in perfect condition, and even re-shrinkwrapped. http://www.spun.com/
