Default Hey, Bob Crantz!

You may not have the nicest stereo anymore, but you've made up for it
with
the boat.


Yeah....watched King Kong last night. Amazingly, the onkyo system did
okay, but I can tell it's a bit harsh on some types of music. The suib
is probably half as powerful as my old one, but this is a matched
system and it's actually more seamless than my assembled setup. Sounds
better than any Bose system, but then Bose is all boom and tweeter to
impress the buyers at Circuit City. The Onkyo has some reasonable
midrange, but it's an up front image much of the time. Still, if you
want good layered midrange, you have to pay big bucks.
King Kong would be a much better film if it was 30 minutes shorter. The
story, which the audience already knows well, moves forward like
Scotty's boat, slow and ponderous. ** 1/2
