    People think I worship at the feet of VIZIO, truth is they are what they are, a marketing company, however that doesnt mean that their product isnt any good.
    Vizio is an opportunity for those who either dont have or dont want to waste money
    to get into HT, a noble endevour.
    the reason Vizio is lamblasted on this board is the same reason that CD's ARE LAMBLASTED BY VINYL WORSHIPERS.
    They provide high q at a reasonable price.
    The set I WANT is quite different than the one I can afford, which is often the case.
    But if I wait until I can afford one of those I will be waiting a long time.
    The way vizio operates they can sell plasma cheap, and good for them
    Doesnt change things tho.
    MAINLY
    plasma is dead





    dont be so hard on yourself, your wife said you werent any good, not "cold":1:

    I think that my impersonation of Pix was better than yours. Go back and try again. And this time put some feeling in it.

    Wooch, Smoke,

    You are both right. I'll try to do better next time.

    If you write your post in Microsoft Works and try to copy/paste it into your browser, the post will have multiple hard carriage returns. One have to go back and edit the post in the browser itself to make it look normal. I wish Pixel would do that before posting as it make his posts easier to read.

    And GM, that was simply priceless and funny as hell. You only forgot one thing...his famous signature :1:

    I can't believe we missed that! I didn't pick up on ONE thing that G missed in the original:( luckily, 'y'all' were here to do so

    Well, he didn't admit that he was drunk while posting. Thats generally buried in the small print (IE NOT CAPITALIZED).

    Also, I think he's a bit off kilter. How can Vizio, the harbringer of all things HD suddenly go backwards 50 years and start making a PLASMA????? Next thing you know, they will be supplying buggy whips, and hand crank ice cream makers.

    I'm quite suprised really that they dont require their sets to run on DC.

    THE only thing you're "trying to impersonate" is a homo sapiens and you're not doing too well.
    Maybe if you change your adult diapers you'll be in a better mood

    And I would rather have charles manson "hang" out with my relatives :1:

    A LITTLE better, but still not as good as I know you can do. What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? Maybe you feel sorry for me and don't want to hurt my feelings? Come on Pix. Pretend I'm Sir T and let it rip. You know you want to.

    I find extra CRs get added when I edit my existing posts in Audio Review's own editor. It also happens when I use my TextPad edititor.

    Okay, so I'm not geeking out with some 60" projector watching Williams Shatner in spandex, but I find my Vizio 32 LCD to be quite good.

    So, besides Vizio and their dying breads, I'm really starting to get annoyed by AR's 3+ Stooges dissing on Pix and his ignorance, by starting dedicated threads... This is just retarded. Red chicklets to all.

    I'm not on anyone's side. I just think all the threads and posts about certain members' lack of audio experience is unneccesary. We all started with a pair of $10 audiophile speakers and on to something better.

    He does show his ugly/bi-polar side, once he's proven wrong(which happens 99% of the time), but if he has 20 members attacking him at the same time, what is he suppposed to do? Obviously he has as much free time as you guys, so he has no option but to retaliate/dig himself deeper.
    Everyone on this site has obvious weakness in their audio system and knowledge. Most of us do not get Pix treatment here, because AR is not filled with ultra hi-end audiophiles. We shouldnt act like we are kings of all audio, just because we have slightly better gears than Pix with more knowledge @ AR.

    Just my observation....

    Joking, I see your point and we should all be a little more patient/mature and if we can't then at least ignore his threads/posts. I'll try to act my age from now on but it's not gunna be as much fun.

    Your observation is wrong. My headphones were $14.99 and I still have them. And they were NOT made by Vizio.

    As to the original post, it was made somewhat tongue-n-cheek. Based on Pix's original PLASMA IS DEAD post. The ironic thing about this post, is that Vizio (Pix's HD source) is now coming out with a Plasma.

    But seeing as I needed to explain it to you, somewhat blunts the joke. Thanks for killing it.

    I am not one to argue with any respected member of this board, but Pix has brought this on himself. If he did not wallow in his ignorance, there would be no need to diss him. He INSISTS he is correct, and we are all just mortal monkeys without a bit of A/V knowledge. Since this is not true, it becomes necessary to explain it to him. If he would just acknowledge that he does not know his butthole from a cave or tunnel, he would just be another person here trying to learn something. That is not the position he is taking, so he get's the pie's thrown at him. He is the one that choses his destiny here, not us. He has chosen combative, and we are giving him exactly what he deserves for that choice.

    Its the 6 stooges by the way. We doubled up LOL.

    Undoubtedly Pix’s insistence on being stubborn has led to this situation, but attacking Pix seems about as fair as beating up the retarded kid in the playground.

    Also, keep in mind that Pix usually has some sort of a point, even if he usually draws the wrong conclusions. Take for example the debate about whether tweeters or woofers use more power:

    I’ll be the first to admit that I have only basic knowledge of physics and electronics, but following that thread it seemed clear to me that Pix was referring to continuous power and everyone else was talking about peak power. So Pix was essentially arguing that during say, a 5 minute song, the tweeter would be constantly employed and drawing on average 30 watts of power for the entire 5 minutes. The woofer might be employed for only 30 seconds total during that song and draw on average 90 watts of power. So in reality the tweeter used more power during that 5 minute song. So up to that point Pix was correct, but from there he drew the conclusion that you should use a more powerful amp to drive a tweeter than a woofer. That conclusion is wrong and contradicts generally accepted audio knowledge. Why? Using the same example: any 50 watt amp should be able to deliver a continuous 30 watts (as long as it has proper ventilation), however that amp will likely clip if it tries to deliver 90 watts (even if for only 30 seconds).

    So yeah, Pix brings this on himself, but that doesn’t mean we have to encourage him.

    The above is a quote from our resident villein. Pretty sure he can defend himself without you getting all bougie-assed, saccharine goody-goody on everyone else. I don't have any problem with Pix and even agree form time to time with his observations, but I know what he's about. His threads usually go south by the third or fourth post 'cause he'll get all snarky with somebody.

    He's like the Todd Fedoruk of audio, he's an instigator. Every team needs one.

    Get over yourself. If you don't like reading our banter with Pix then don't read our posts. He knows that most of us are just playing with him and he plays right back.
