I'm in the market for a 2.1 system to upgrade the sound from the TV. Bose is too expensive and it's Bose :). My wife wants small bose-like speakers though. I currently have some polk RTi A3's that are too big :(.
Any recommendations for a 2.1 system. I already have a receiver but will...
my gas fireplace puts off like no heat. I was thinking the tv was too big for the area. the fireplace is sorta in our kitchen so it would almost be a kitchen tv
Hi all,
I in the market for a 32" ish tv with wifi. I have no cable and am really only interesting in it streaming content from my PC. Built in HD/or being able to hook up a usb hd with content would be a huge plus (most of my stuff is avi/xvid etc)
Any recommendations that fit that...
my tag is stamped with SET STD = 50 PSI. Range 25-75.
I may try venting the system one more time because last time I did it the air was rushing out of the back bib for like 5 minutes...so hard that it was whistling. If that doesn't work, I'll lower the pressure with a few turns.
just got my rain bird water pressure gauge. I hooked it up to my backyard water bib, and it said my water pressure is 90psi! Should I lower it via the PRV?
ok, I didn't mention this before because I honestly didn't think it was related but now I'm wondering.
The pipe(s) banging is nearest to a toilet where I recently had to replace all the internals. The stuff in the tank doesn't have a float ball and is one of those newer kind of fill thingys...
Thanks for all the good info. Today I was right by the main water line pipe when my wife flushed the toilet and I got a good listen. The sound certainly shakes the pipes a bit and I think it may be coming from the water pressure regulator thing, which is just after the main shutoff valve...
interesting but this is happening no matter where I turn the water on from. I can have the water on from anywhere (1 or more places, as long as the flow rate is high) and the banging will happen. The banging sound is always in the same place however.
Are you saying a valve near the sound...
Hey,
I've run out of places to search and things to try so I'm trying here :)
My house built in 2001 is having some pipe banging issues. As far as I can tell it's not water hammer (which happens with a sudden stop of water flow). The pipe bangs only when the flow rate is high. For...
my apple tv with xmbc seems to stuggle with streaming...plus my wife hates having to mess with my computer just to watch something.
WAP is very important in our house :)
the problem is, some of the newer devices I want to buy only have HDMI for video. So the only way to get video is to go through the receiver and have it output component
I'm looking for a new receiver but I still don't have an HDMI capable TV and would like to not have to buy one. Problem is, several of my devices (and ones I'm looking at) have HDMI only outputs.
It there a receiver out there (low end, i.e. not expensive) that will take HDMI inputs and...
Last year I could not itemize but had a significant amount of charitable givings. This year I can itemize. Can I carry that amount this year? Turbotax is indicating I can. I'm not where near the 50% AGI limit.
The only thing that has me thinking twice is that I did not itemize last...
Currently have an apple tv. I hate encoding all the time so I put XBMC on it.
XBMC takes too much work to configure and the interface is not wife friendly (too many options)
The WD TV Live Hub looks to be perfect for me.
1. Component hookups are required. NO HDMI tv or receiver for me...
So I just moved into a new townhome that came prewired with ethernet and coax, including a central distribution thingy made by onQ. The panel in my downstairs closet includes powered coax and ethernet.
When I first saw the powered coax i was excited because the house was obviously pre-wired...
Okay, I'm traveling and having a few problems using my macbook to access some of those free public wifi spots.
I can access some of the free ones but the one at my hotel and one at starbucks I cannot.
I'm in Europe so Starbucks here uses btopenzone. Access is free and doesn't require a...
lol, oh man...I need to stop posting...must be the over tired first time parent thing....sorry about that.
at first glance I didn't see the "lower is better." ....and I should of known better.
Can these charts be right?

Is doesn't seem like I would be loosing much by going with a new pinetrail ATOM keeping everything else the same.
background: thinking about downsizing to a nettop.
Yes I'd love an IMAC, but the price and OS are turning me away.
I'm basically trying to build an IMAC replacement. Although, the separate monitor and PC has it advantages.
yep, I am happy with the performance of my current system...it's actually probably way overpowered for what I do:
web surfing
video encoding from my HD camcorder (don't really care that much about time)
light video editing (basically just cutting)
photoshop
I was only thinking i3 for cooling...
just found this case: I could get a micro-atx case with this!!

How big of an issue is having no cases fan for a i3, 7200rpm 2.5 HD, ram, mobo, etc.?
what about this? http://www.mini-itx.com/store/?c=54
with an H55 mobo + intel i3 chip? 4GB DDR3 and a 2.5HD? Would a pico 150w PSU be okay for that config?
I currently have a tower computer with an E8500, 8GB DDR, 500GB HD, 9400GT, and a 20" Dell LCD.
I would like to downsize into a VESA mountable computer. My idea is to get a new 22" plus HDMI monitor and mount the PC on the back, and use a wireless keyboard mouse. Sorta a customized...
I resent that..first of all I'm not a kid and second I'm not rich. If all I do is web browse, email, and edit pictures what's wrong with this box (and wanting some faster HD speed to boot)?
