    Synergy: Fallacy or a real factor?

    @fdlsys & @Air - there is a lesson to be learnt in this thread: It is an irrefutable law of forums: There will always be one (or more) person who thinks they’re always right. They’re first to give their opinion and first to provide their recommendation. For whatever reason, they have an...

    What you paid for AV Items vs What you told your Wife/GF/So you paid for it ?

    Agreed. The same joke does the rounds about motorcycles, golf, cycling etc. etc. The other end of the joke is always along the lines of "I hope when I die my wife doesn't sell my gear/motorcycle/clubs etc. for what I told her I paid for them"! As a good friend who was in advertising (and won...
