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.

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.
