  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

As a teenager I purchased my first component sound system along with a couple of Pioneer loud speakers. I enjoyed the system for years, until I could afford to upgrade, and upgrading continues to this day. Currently have a descent 5.1 setup in the living room. I am using a Cerwin-vega center channel and the rest are Polk (including a PSW10). Actually prefer the Cerwin-vega center over my Klipsch and Yamaha center channel speakers. Even at my computer good sound is important to me. I have a couple of Logitech (Z-5500 and the previous 5.1 model) THX certified sets and use Creative Labs sound cards. Unfortunately the sub got fried by lightening in one of them (the older model). Anyway I suppose I could be labeled a sound enthusiast because quality sound is important to me. I have spent loads of time reading reviews, and always give them weight when deciding. I am curious how many sound enthusiasts frequent CF. Tell me about your systems and how you decide on components and what you look for and expect.
