The reviews though

Say "Monolith, eat tape" and that mix tape you made for your significant other will immediately become entangled in the gears and mechanisms of your player. Revenge is always sweet.

"shoulder cushion" ....lol.

Are you opposed to 3D printing?

Not really, though I am likely opposed to how much a custom keycap would cost.

$13 for white and $17 for any other color

Or you could get stainless steel for $72!

I don't know how affordable these guys are, but they've collaborated with ECP Audio before

What are you looking for anyway? If you need someone to CNC some panels for a speaker, you can try these guys.

Thanks! I am actually trying to get some help building a goliath/transformer table: https://transformertable.com/ I have the skills and tools to build a rough version, but no way to plane and finish to a furniture grade finish.

Don’t even get me started on hover boards...

On the bright side, it's not a techno- or a dystopian-wasteland yet. Cherry 2000 might be a movie for the latter, as far as sexbots go.

I have a couple on hand to try if I get bored, but probably the OPA2134.

Which ones? I have the AD823, RC4580, TL072, LM833. For now I've settled on the 4580. I gave each roughly 20 hrs of listening time before deciding. Great DIY-Fi amp, enjoy!!!

I also have the RC4580 since it was a recommended pairing with the mosfets (I basically built the kit, but sourced everything on my own). Also have an OPA227 I can pull from an old CMOY.

Well, that servo is meant to be peachy for music.

That amp/energiser is so tiny. Actually portable, if you are the kind of person that uses open backs around..

I hope it's not like Kingsound

@spwath I remember someone else losing their crap about the energiser, not to mention the possibility that there might be electrets in there and the box is just a transformer... it was hilarious.

@Cspirou How bad were the Kingsounds? I keep seeing people ripping into those whenever talk of the Monoprice comes up.

As goofy as Chuck is I loved the show. The way the show goes gives me an interesting look on how shows get produced. Don't want to spoil it though.

Thanks guys. The Omnisats are a little bit bigger and go a bit lower (70hz ish). I have front and center speakers already (with a decent sub coming in the future) and was just trying to find something that might give me a little more ambiance than the normal small speakers used for surrounds.

I can get a 5 pack for a reasonable price so was thinking of using them in the bedroom as well for background music.

70 Hz is very sweet. I would go for it. Congratz!

@fraggler Yeah they seem to have rebranded their models. I was refering to the class of efficiency, by which they used to solely differentiate them. Gold may be sufficient too, have a look on silentpcreview.com (?).

Dunno if it’s still the case but Seasonic used to build the Corsair PSUs, the one I tried was good but the fan had an unpleasant noise characteristic. That was a long time ago, though.

Thanks, all. I used to have a Saeasonic way back in the day when I spent too much time on SPCR. My current Silverstone has been fantastic these last 10 years (!) With the exception of the fan failing twice. I kind of want to go back to Seasonic again.

How much overhead do you need? Using an online calculator, my current rig could max out around 450 and my potential upgrade system would hit 550. Would a Gold or Platinum rated 650 work?

The Jack-Jack/raccoon showdown was kind of amazing.

I'm tempted to go back on $5 Tuesday just to see that scene again. Up there with seeing Yoda fight for the first time as my all time cackling-like-a-madman favorite fight scenes.

It definitely ranks among the better Pixar films. Great comedic moments, good-to-decent action scenes, plus that soundtrack is amazing!

For blurays, I think bluray.com and the usual A/V sites' reviews are fine. Dunno why but like somebody said here, even though most A/V sites are pretty deaf, they're not bad at reviewing the V.

I didn't know how much comparisons were made. There are so many releases (multiple Bluray releases, Anniversary releases, 4K transfers, remasters, etc.) that it is sometimes hard to track what has changed. I have some Blurays from the early days that are starting to degrade (can actually see it on the disc), and am trying to sort through my options.

Criterion releases are always top notch, if your movie is in their library. Bluray.com is pretty good for sussing out the various releases too. AVSforum might be worth a look too.

All new. All characters from past games plus a couple new ones!

Nintendo can have my money when Smash Bros comes to the Switch. Then I can feel like a kid again playing Mortal Kombat for the first time, just more kawaii...

It's all the old games..."Feed me quarters!!!!!!"

I always thought it was funny that they made 100 varients of Street Fight II before finally making a Street Fighter III
