Do you think a VP150 bookshelf would sound better than a VP150 in-wall/on-wall? There are no ports, so only size of box. Does the size of the box without ports make a big difference? I'm thinking yes, the bookshelf would sound better, even without ports.

Yeah, the size of the box works as a high-pass filter. The larger the box the lower frequency it can reproduce. Cutting a hole (port) in a box is another way of making it larger.

Yeah! I won the vp150 v2 in-on wall in warm cherry from the auction site for $215.50. I can replace my black in-on wall VP100 with it now.

I can't wait to get back to working on my Home Theater downstairs. But with shoulder pain, MRI reveals either a torn ligament or tendon. Don't remember which one. I see a dr on it the last Friday of this month. Then a dental visit today revealed I'm going to have to caught up about $800 for more dental work. It's hard coming up with the money for HT work. Sheesh.

BTW, my dentist today said that we're only about 5-6 years away from dentists implanting a tooth bud in our gums to grow a new tooth. She said they've been doing it successfully with animals for a while. The technology comes from stem cell research. I didn't think to ask her where the tooth buds came from at the time. I started thinking about it later and my guess would be they take them out of aborted babies, but hopefully not.

I don't think so. I did something similar to my left shoulder about 6 y ears ago, but I didn't do anything about it. It's still not 100%, but much better than it was.

I started thinking about it later and my guess would be they take them out of aborted babies, but hopefully not. Cat, it's just like growing an ear on the back of a mouse. They didn't need a fetal ear to get it started. Stem cells aren't tooth cells, or liver cells, or anything, They haven't yet been directed to become a specific cell type. All cells begin this way. In this case, they are genetically directed to become a tooth. Like the ear, they likely begin with a shaped, organic blank (template) and then genetic material builds upon that. It's like a Chia Pet. What sprouts depends on what seeds you started with. They only used aborted fetuses to make shampoo.
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
