Lets just agree to disagree

There is no disagreement here Ajax.
I understand what you are saying and i agree. Your usage of the word is certainly correct and one cannot stop using a word, especially one like... {earmuffs, earmuffs}....OF.
All i pointed out (even so long ago when chatting with Spiff) was the context in which the "u" word was being abused (in general by many posters, in volumes more recently) and misunderstood by those who had no frame of reference for it, then offered some alternatives. I believe not so long ago there was a discussion about actual grammar and spelling as a pet peeve on the forums. Oddly enough, i wasn't involved in that debate at all. Things only get real ugly when someone gets called a jackass. We were far from such a state.

You can use the "u", "b", "m" and "f" words as often as you like.
My grandmother does it every other sentence and she doesn't even have Tourette's or Axioms.

Don't you mean downgrade to decaf?

Since i don't drink coffee, i have no frame of reference, so really for me, i would have to start drinking coffee first. Would this be an upgrade or a downgrade?
Hmm, a poll is in the coming future.

I think i hear Bren calling for another round of Kumbaya.



OH YA, BUY FACTORY OUTLET!!

danman,

Let's get back on topic for you. The M60s provide excellent bass. They will not, however, provide the level of LFE that a good sub will provide. I'm pretty sure I would be hard pressed to take my sub out of the mix ( I have the M60s and an SVS 20-39PCi) now that I have everything calibrated and working together.

If you want to go with the bass on the M60s (rather than the sub) for music, you have some options and would still be able to have the sub available for movies. you could :
1) Turn the sub off for music. You would need to set the front speakers to large.

2) You could control the sub dB level with your remote or receiver and effectively turn it to the minus side such that it doesn't have any volume.

3) Reach behind the sub and adjust the gain up or down to add or remove LFE.

Probably other ideas, but you get the idea.

As far as the quality of the Outlet stock goes, my (pretty extensive) research here on the message board indicates that, without exception, the speakers show up 1) in excellent playing shape and 2) the imperfections are imperceptible or non-existent to the naked eye.

Please consider these speakers because they are excellent. The manner in which this thread was twisted out of shape is uncommon and may have you a bit tweaked. All in good fun and that's one of the reasons I like to wander in here and play in the sandbox. Order with confidence.

Thanks for all the strange comments but I am not sure if anyone really answered the question or not!!
I listened to JMLab 716s this week end and was very impressed. Does anyone know how they compare to the M60's?

I would like to get rid of my subwoofer for music as I do not like having too much bass that is not realistic in music. I have never heard anything from Axiom but I am very impressed by all the comments here and everywhere. I guess I need reassurance that this will be a good speaker for me.

politically correct language is stressed...and then we sink to the depths of animated gun play??

Precisely why I have all but abandoned this board......

BBIBH,

We're fresh out of soapboxes here...

BBIBH,
I've read your comments with interest and your most recent comment indicates that your intent would be to move on to other pursuits rather than continuing to add your insights here. I took the time to review some of your historical postings and I would be personally disappointed to see you terminate your relationship with this forum.

I appreciate your comments regarding my experiences.

However, if you read the thread, apparently there is room to correct inconsistencies with wording - as dictated by board members, but something that I feel is not "politcally correct" is not allowed.

This echoes the post I made recently......

I'd just like to go on record to say that I've been here well before the board became as popular as it is today (back then five posts a day was considered hectic) and BBIBH was one of the reasons why I stayed on.

His input is interesting and informative.

I'll respect what ever you do but IMO I'd rather you stay and contribute.



How did I get so tall????

...oh ......it's the box I'm standing on.

I'd like to echo Ford and Ray's comments.

More smart people are better than fewer smart people.

BBIBH, I want to encourage you to "stay" and participate to what ever degree and on what ever topics feel right to you. I really think this is a fun board and that there is room for all of us.

Chalk up another for for you staying...I too have enjoyed reading your contributions to these boards.

This thread got beyond ridiculous. I hope you can agree that that is not the "norm" around here.
