I haven't caught up in the thread but I saw I was tagged. I'm still training (myself) and all of the clients (along with my wife and 4 other trainers and 3 interns) for the gym that we own. Newbie gains are the most fun period in a lifters/exercisers career. You can gain a significant amount...

There's plenty of benefits to having a permanent policy especially for someone who has kids or plans to have kids. Term has great benefits to address other issues that aren't lifelong (college tuition, mortgage, home equity loan, etc). B's prices are good not great since they have the age...

tC is high on insurance for kids. Had the highest pullover/citation rate of any car. The WRX was closed. Because, dumb kids. The Cx5 and Cx3 are garbage. I went with an Explorer and couldn't ve happier. Could have gotten an XLT with good options for a similar price with similar gas mikage. I...

Hopefully about $60k for 2015. I just had my best year ever personally so I was using the gym to help run off some of that income because it flows down to the personal level (S Corp).

Basically wound up with this. 2 1000watt, 2 channel, 12 inch powered EV speakers and a 800watt amp. After cables, $1480. It jams. I was just at a bigger gym last night and saw that they had cheaper Peaveys that did fine. The Bluetooth feature would have been really nice for us but the...

I think we are going to either wind up Craigslisting or just spending a lot more than originally anticipated. Looks like possibly 2 1000-1500watt, self powered, 2 way speakers and a sub. Probably JBL, QSC, EV, or Behringer - although the Guitar Center didn't have any of them to listen to. We...

Yeah the bookshelf stuff has just been tough for blowing out. Those places are all for having lower music but we are dipshits and crank the music during the workout. So most of the time the music is at an okay mid level but its face melting during intense workouts and I think that has been our...

Gah. So many questions! Those get great reviews and look like a great speaker, but they're rated at 200watt versus the 400watt VM speakers that were in a wood box, also got good reviews, and were $100 for the pair rather than $150 each. Although those look much smaller and more easily mounted...

You are absolutely right. I mean we dropped $200 on speakers and were given a hand-me-down receiver that we thought was decent. We got fed up of that one, even when not that loud (but definitely when it was up loud, too) spiking and saying "protect". Our friend gave us a newer Sony one and it...

How would what you posted compare to something like this? I got a couple of responses on another forum to do a PA system. "On the cheap, even something like 4 of these on the corners: Amazon.com: 2) New VM Audio VAS38P 8" 400 Watt 3 Way DJ Passive Loud PA Speaker System Pair: Electronics and...

I just meant I would be concerned it wouldn't get loud enough or the receiver would be stressed to much like ours is now. I'm sure sound quality will blow away the junk we had.

This was basically our setup but older. We were through a Sony receiver, a pioneer, and I forget the other brand. Speakers were about that size. I know we probably had it too loud but it wasn't all that crazy. I was told the speakers probably didn't match the ohmsw of the speaker and may have...

Currently a blend. One was mounted on the top of an aluminum framed wall that houses the bathrooms and our drop ceiling for office. The other is mounted on the wall using the mount system that came with JVC. A center speaker was on top of the recover, there were 1 or 2 speakers on the floor...

What we blew were I believe JVC bookshelf speakers that were about $100/pair. probably 12in tall. Believe they were 8ohm and the receiver may have been 16ohm. Each receiver has gone into protect mode when there's a spike in high treble from a song, even when the receiver was at maybe 80% max...

Speaker count doesn't matter. Whatever is adequate. We just had 4 + a center. As for budget, I am not sure what would be an adequate budget. At this point, paying $500 for something new or used would probably be fine. $1000 would probably be hard to justify for our needs. I spent $200 on...

The other thread gave me this idea. We have been through three different receivers and blown out speakers. One of the receivers looks to have fried during a lightning storm. Today, while the volume was up, it tripped the breaker and seems to have fried the receiver. We need to push out sound...

Got the business up and running, got married, bought a house, underwent multiple expansions and projects at the business, had my best year ever financially. 2015 will be better. Still lots to learn and lots of growing to do.

I didn't say women were absolved of their actions or decisions. I said that men should know better and have common decency and respect. If she's drunk off her ass and you just met, you better be clear that she really wants you without having the benefit of knowing her personality and how she...

As mentioned, this is not the first. It made it to a Time magazine article a decade ago. Some of this stuff was uncovered when Darren Sharpe got busted this past year for doing the same sort of thing to 30+ women. Using sleep aids or roofies to drug women...

Yeah. NJ. 3100Sq ft. Built in 1974 nd upgraded in 2000's. $550k and that was about $50-75k under the appraisal and true market value as it was a relo. I would say you did well. Very well.
