Airboss,
I feel your pain regarding some of the responses given here. Just because some of us newbees ask redundant or simple questions does not need a response of "That was discussed before, or look at some of the previous threads". Most of the time a simple direct answer can set us straight.

If you look at the number of regular members that post here you will see there are just a few. Why are there not more newbees?. Could it be that they don't want to be told to go and search some buried thread that may or may not answer their questions.

I know most of you that post here are WAY over my head regarding audio knowledge. We all have to learn somewhere and sometime. I am over 60 and sometimes learning doesn't come as easily as it used to.

Thanks to all of those that take the time to help us newbees understand. We do appreciate your effort. I learn more every time I read someones posting. But PLEASE don't beat me up too bad for asking a stupid question. I get that enough from my wife...
