Furutech unveils $1,800 Powerflux power cable -- yes, seriously

I once asked a hifi dealer if I also needed to replace the wires in the wall or if his cable would do everything... priceless ;)

CRTC bashes hopes for two High Fidelity HDTV stations in Canada

I think that censorship might be even more likely with the religious "far right"..

Nikon's D90: the DSLR for HD junkies?

I think that it only films 5min-max 24fps clips so it won't replace anything, it will just be a "nice to have" feature. Nobody should be buying the D90 for this feature alone. It is only recording the live-view feed.

Haha, only in communist Canada! I live in Canada and I would love the gvt to pull the plug on the CRTC. They also attack freedom of speech - for example they pulled the plug on the most popular radio guy in QC city.

Fraunhofer says HD-ACC will make CDs "obsolete"

16 bits is enough for high level audio, but not for music with much dynamic range like classical music (if the stereo is high enough quality too). In theory, I think that 18-20 bits would be enough.

Then extra sampling frequency is not required because we can hear over 20kHz (we can't), it's because it avoids using brick-wall anti-aliasing filters that modify the phase of the signals we do hear (under 20kHz).

Fraunhofer says HD-ACC will make CDs "obsolete"

In Quebec we have a company that markets "HD lenses" for your glasses. To make it even more dumb, they show how glasses make your view of a TV look more clear...

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
