    Its always hard to explain to people. It's something you need to experience. Most of the cheap subs (and I'd class the $350 as cheap too) end up sounding like a sub in a box. Boomy / boxy, however you want to describe it. I am on the far end of the spectrum with a Paradigm Signature Sub25. Every...

    Careful once you go down that rabbit hole. It starts meager, then you end up deep 5 figures in gear! =D Never heard of those speakers in your links though. You'd be best taking your own media to a proper hi-fi / home theater shop and doing some blind tests.

    That's an absolute waste of pixels if you paid for that monster size / resolution and only running 1080. Go into your DPI scaling settings. You can keep native monitor resolution and windows will scale icons / text larger. You can also scale in your browser for webpages, if needed.

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Trash HP changes were well received last night. We did a full Time clear. Trash went down at a much more reasonable rate, while maintaining some lethality. (we had a few deaths here and there in P2-P3) I think we were around 15-18 chars for the raid and it took around 3+ hours. Thanks for the work!

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    You forgot the part where he had industry professionals working on the project at the start. Brad tried to hide the donation fund scandal from them as well until they called him out and walked. Then came the era where his dev team consisted of a fundie Christian family and we got fuzzy troll...

    The thing is, we already went through this cycle. When he first appeared here pitching Pantheon, there was a good number of people who ripped him for his past shenanigans. (drug abuse, vanguard parking lot firings, etc) But very quickly, people moved on and were VERY supportive of Pantheon and...

    There are two main factors with wire gauge. #1 is distance, as you mentioned. #2 is current levels. The higher current (power /wattage) you are driving, a thicker gauge would be required. If you are running high current over long distance, even more thicker gauge is needed. With those dinky...

    EQemu - Nagafen's Lair (Reborn)

    Evasive (in its broken OP form) is kinda necessary though. Otherwise, it would make all of the rest of the raid content need to be re-tuned as it would take a significant increase in healing power for PoP content. There still needs to be some tuning in PoTime, imo. The server works very well...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    My bank offers 1.79% on 36 month new vehicle loans. That's dirt cheap. I would much rather have my capital available for investing vs throwing it into the car. You have to try especially hard not to earn a return greater than that.

    The kicker is (pun intended), this forum immediately warned Brad that the KS page needed to be worked on. Hell, I think Draegan even offered to clean it up. This forum gave Brad a ton of great suggestions while he was active in the thread. What was Brad's response? "We are not Kickstarter...

    Just FYI, the EVGA issues were limited to FTW edition cards only. Keep away from those and you are ok. Even if you had one, EVGA will straight up swap you for a corrected card.

    Ah yes, I should clarify. Defensive never worked on SK. Same as you, it seemed like it didn't mitigate a thing. Evasive did work!

    When I left, Maze half ass fixed SK Defensive. He had it working server side, but you had to use an older spell file to get it working properly. Unfortunately, I deleted it a while back. I am sure someone else has it. (Nisea or Nima)

    Computer Chairs

    Another note for durability. HM Aeron are praised in this thread repeatedly for a reason. I can attest, as we have HM Aeron chairs here at my office (gov IT work). We are a 24/7/365 shop and this building and the chairs at our desks are just over 8 years old. A couple of the dudes here weigh a...

    Fair enough.. but I mentioned the premium service because you can get 320kb/s "high quality" streaming with that. It's pretty damn hard to distinguish from lossless at that rate. If you really have a hard-on for truly lossless audio, you can sub to Tidal. (uncompressed FLAC streaming)

    The Grand Tour (from the guys in Top Gear)

    That's another good point. They can't really push cars to their max because the slightest mistake = totaled car and possibly a dead driver. It also favors cars that are quicker in turns, as they mentioned the "not so straight" is not straight, so renders raw HP and speed much less of a factor...

These new Samsungs have "Adaptive Fast Charging", which allow them to be charged super quick. But to do so...

    I haven't downloaded or had a "library" of music in ages. Who doesn't stream these days? $10 a month for Spotify premium is pretty damn hard to beat. Not to mention I have discovered tons of songs and bands I never would have without it.

    The Grand Tour (from the guys in Top Gear)

    You've clearly not paid attention to Top Gear then. These 3 cars are the pinnacle of engineering and technology and people have been dying to see a 3 way comparison since their release. Ferrari have been pussies about it and refused their car to be timed as well as other issues from Porsche and...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The big Porsche SUV is Cayenne, not Cheyenne! You can't really compare the Macan to the X5. The X5's competitor is the bigger Cayenne. Unless things have changed, the X5M still holds the performance SUV crown. The Cayenne is nice, but Porsche will nickel and dime you for every single item you...

    EQ drama was serious business! Ahh.. crazy how we got so wrapped up in that shit. 55k is pretty damn trivial though. Hell, Fungi Tunics sold for more than that back in that era. Just goes to show how worked up people got over pixel drama.

    At the end of every episode, there is a mini doc on filming that particular episode. They focused on volcano / penguin island this time. Not sure if you missed it or it wasn't included in whatever media you watched it from.

    You buy a brand new TV with sound system... what movie do you watch on it first

    Visal / Audio would be two different tests for me. Visually, it would have to be a documentary flick like the latest "Planet Earth 2" series. Audio, "Master and Commander" naval ship battle scene has always been my go-to test. Amazing sonic range from ultra deep bass from cannon fire to...

    Fantastic first episode! Some of those panning shots of the Volcano island with the millions of penguins was nuts. It looked too damn good to be real. I would have sworn CGI too! haha!
