Yes I dug this one up. I'd only been around for a month so I couldn't comment.

Well in the 5 months I've been hanging around, I've had almost everyone put a finger or two in one of my threads. I've read thread after thread on every subject. And I must say, I've learned a little bit from everyone. The knowledge that some of you guys have on audio and video is simply amazing. I did not know that HT ran so deep until I stumbled upon this site. Hell, I didn't know much of anything HT wise until I found this site. Although I was on my fourth system, I quickly realized there's more to this hobby than just throwing more and more money into it. The response from the more experienced posters is valuable information. For example, you get your newbie that pops up and says"I don't like my system, it doesn't sound right, I'm gonna go out and buy something nice and shiny to make it sound better". And then the reply is not to go out and spend more money but to break down and analyze the situation. Room acoustics, proper calibration, SPL meters, repositioning speakers, it's all thrown in and next thing you know, the newbie not only walks away with a ton of information, but with some extra cash in his pocket as well. I think the key point is always getting some knowledge across to a person, not just yelling out the answer. Yeah, I still gotta long ways to go,but as long as I keep hanging around, some of this stuff is bound to stick. I can easily see why some guys have been hanging around here for years. My vote goes to AR as a whole.

Now I think funniest member should go to GM
