That is just a cheap knock off amp. Pyramid had nothing to do with PG, or any other company. They were just a garbage company that made amps look similar to great companies, but also badged "10,000 watts!" all over them.

Actually, the ELT's are the only ones I havent heard from them. But I would trust them after hearing every other line. Hell, I have an X-LS right now and it sounds great even though it is supposedly a lower line than the ELT. If I didnt have to buy a wedding ring, I'd be all over that 5.0 deal.

I would also check out AV123.com. They have the ELT monitors for $169, and they are a decent set. Build quality and finish is excellent for that price.

Yup, sound like it. I am seriously still baffled by it. Another thing that Im wondering is if the processing might have had anything to do with it. They wre using a Classe surround processor (SSP-800) in a 2 channel room. I wish they would have used a tube preamp up front. Dont let me give you the w...

B&W can suck it

I just have to rant a little. I went and listened to a few 2 channel setups today, and I do not understand why people love B&W? I heard the 800d's today and was initially impressed. They can play classical very well, they were very smooth and realistic. Staging wasnt there, but Im sure they didn...

I was gonna give them some loud tunes, but they are so white trash that it probably wouldnt bother them. All they do is smoke pot all day, and I have yet to see them go to work.

Yup, Def has the constraints/anti aliasing properties of Solidworks. There are no obvious signs of Rhino/3D studio. Im a bit surprised by ProE though. That could be mocked up (design wise) completely in Solidworks. Im thinking the ProE came in later for the tooling side of things. Any idea what PG u...

Good luck finding the right parts. I dont think autozone will have them. Not to mention, I didnt think the authorized repair shops were allowed to sell the parts to the public.

Just have to bitch a little. I moved into a place in july that would have worked perfect. Long story short, the person right next to me has a shitty stereo (gotta be one of those $100 sets with the 8" woofer tuned to 50 hz) and HAS to play it between the hours of 12 am-645 am. I work an 8-5, so...

I really dont know what to think about these. Im enjoying the tweeters, as a new component set intrigues me. The (what I assume to be) high excursion SPL subwoofer really turns me off though. How many more SPL woofers do we need in the market? Im wondering how well the ti elite did? I know that this...

I didnt realize the sony was running a snapdragon as well. That is a decent unit, however it would be better if they didnt pack it full of sony software shit. Im sure you will have to sync it with some stupid ass software that is ridiculous to use.

Do you know how happy I am to be on this forum where people actually like the sport! Its amazing that people in Michigan can love the lions, but could care less about the Wings. Hell, they didnt even know who Steve Yzerman was! Thank god for you guys.

So what are the predictions?
