    I stopped caring about model numbers long ago, now I just pay attention when shopping.
    I am not even current on B&W, and I like them! that new 700 series sounds nice.
    Nobody but the most ardent fanatic, or salesperson, is going to be able to remember a model number years after they have listened to something.
    You get to a point where your brain starts throwing stuff out (Note to self, reread the fountainhead)
    Ok, so 3 years ago...well, how about looking online at their website and see if any of them ring a bell. Instead of playing the whole 'forgetfulness' act. You see where I come from (you know Earth) people tend to back up what they are saying in order to be taken seriously. It's not a hard thing to do. There are only a few models to choose from: Alpha, Image, Stratus, or the Platinums. My guess is you probably heard the Alpha line and are basing their entry level speaker on what their entire line up has to offer. No wait, let me taken that back. I am guessing that you probably never really spent any decent time with PSB at all, but are just trying to troll.

    This is where the line was crossed and I declared war. I think I have every right.
    You could just ignore the whole thing.

    Trolling works because people respond.

    MDF is easy to work with, less expensive than most woods, and has very good acoustic characteristics.

    Sorry Kex, didn't mean to answer for you. It just slipped out.

    Chips are on the counter behind you. Beer's in the fridge. No popcorn made yet. Check the cabinet above the oven. There may be a few bags left.

    I guess this makes up for the steel cage match that Dean set up for Flo and RGA. They never did show up for that match. I got drunk as a skunk waiting.

    Now that member and sucked have been used in the same sentence, can we put this in the Steel Cage and let 'em really go at it?

    There are a few in the fridge up here. Check the big fridge in the basement for a larger selection. There's more popcorn. Don't fight.

    Here are our cheerleaders for the fight. They will need a place to sit.

    Nothing wrong with a little variety. We can mix and match.

    One with a sweater, two without. One with a sweater, two without.

    I can deal with this. No problem.

    seeing the amount of cheerleaders without a sweater it would more likely be something like:

    one with a sweater, 20 without. one with, 20 without...

    but that's ok, I can live with that

    is the popcorn ready?

    All of this is rather enlightening.
    My pronto is doing fine but four years old, and will need replacing soon.
    I was thinking about a Harmony but now...
    One of the requirements of an universal remote is that any idiot can master one.
    So I guess the harmony is out of the running
    This was taken from the thread I started seeking adise and answers to my questions about my remote. The topic went off course; I tried to steer it back, but then I get this? You people can't justify that crap no matter how you try to spin it.

    My turn... NEW TOY!

    I don't think that anyone was trying to justify Pixie's actions. That would be a lost cause.

    Yeah, the similarities are eerily creepy...right down to the crappy movie reviews...remember how Lex would take a thread off on a tangent by mentioning he had done a review, then link it for us? Man, that guy was weird....

    Actually, half of those threads went into flaming meltdowns because he would mention his "professional" reviews and then go ballistic whenever anyone asked for a link! (Remember his claimed status as a freelancer for Home Theater magazine? He never produced a single link despite many requests to do so ... and some of these requests were actually sincere!). The link requests from JSE inevitably devolved into riotous stalker threads that rank among the most entertaining flame wars ever on this board. The best one though was the Revenge of the Sith thread where he single-handedly took on virtually the entire board membership (and their mothers) -- I think more than 200 posts accumulated in less than 24 hours before things got so out of hand that the admins deleted the thread.

    Ahh, those were the days. You gotta admit, there was nothing as entertaining as watching Lexietyladiny_aruti throw a temper tantrum and reduce into a paranoid fit. He KNOWS who YOU really ARE. IIRC there's a real Scott Aruti that Lexie pretended to be.
    Not just plagiarism, but identity theft too.

    But nothing on Ar.com ever, EVER approached the catastrophic depths of self-destruction like the woman hating thread on that car forum....yikes.
