    Built me a center speaker stand this past weekend

    While this site was down, I decided to get the Klipsch RC-52ii center off the Bose woofer as a temporary stand, and mount it above the plasma TV.

    Just signed up and have been lurking about and reviewing systems online as well. Back around 1999, me and my wife bought a Bose Lifestyle 30. By it's 12th year, we lost the LCD display but it still functioned. We also noticed voices in a movie were not projecting like they used to. I messed with...
