Sore Throat: Virus or Strep?
Medical Author: Melissa Stöppler, M.D.
Are you wondering if your sore throat requires antibiotics? Strep throat, named for the Streptococcus bacterium that causes the condition, is a particularly severe form of sore throat that is best treated with antibiotics. Strep throat can strike both children and adults, but only about 5%-10% of sore throats are caused by a bacterial infection. Most sore throats are caused by viral illnesses and are not responsive to treatment with antibiotics.
A true streptococcal infection of the throat often leads to excruciating throat pain accompanied by difficulty swallowing and even speaking. Fever may be present, and the tonsils are often covered with a whitish layer of pus. Cough and runny nose are not commonly related to strep throat, but it is possible to have a streptococcal infection along with a viral upper respiratory infection and symptoms of a cold. The bacterial infection may result in enlarged, tender lymph nodes in the neck. Children may have an accompanying rash; a streptococcus infection along with a rash is commonly termed scarlet fever.

Leland Nikolaus: I'm doing fine.
JM: Good! Well, today we're going to talk about your memories of your lifetime and your perspective of Show Low, Arizona, and how you perceived it to be. So whatever you want to talk about we'll do that. I'm going to get a little closer to you. So, Leland, you're not a first generation of Show Low are you.
LN: I'd be a third generation.
JM: Third generation?
LN: Yes
JM: So that means your great grandparents came here?
LN: Yes, great grandfather. He came from Germany.
JM: Okay, and what was his name?
LN: Franz Ludwig Nikolaus
JM: Okay, and do you know when he came?
LN: No.
JM: You don't know when he came.
LN: He was born in 1858, was when he was born. He came over here on a boat on a stowaway.
JM: As a stowaway, how interesting! So he came here by himself?
LN: Yes, well no, no.
JM: From Germany?
LN: Yes, Badenburg Germany. He was born in '58 and in what year he came, I don't know. I have no idea. But he landed in Virginia and worked his way across. The first record we've got of him is, I don't know what year it was or anything, but he come down there to Holbrook and was up on the Butte there by, uh what's that little town this side of uh?
JM: This side of Holbrook? Woodruff?
LN: Yeah, Woodruff, Woodruff. And he sat up there on that knoll for a while watching the Owens. Clark Owens, that helped buy this country? And he went down there finally and they hired them. He worked for the Owens for a year, and then he got a job taking the mail from Holbrook to Fort Apache. And that's what he done.
JM: A mail carrier
LN: Yes, a mail carrier. And that's about all I know of him.
JM: Was he single then, or had he?
LN: Yes, he was single.
JM: He was single, and so he met somebody here?
LN: He met a Laxton, Mary Laxton, and married her. How old he was, he had three children, four children. They had four children, my dad and one girl, Louie, and Frank and Henry – he had the four boys.
JM: And what was your dad's name?
LN: Joseph William
JM: Joseph William.
LN: We called him Bill.
JM: So did he live in Woodruff when he met and married her? Or
LN: No, I don't know whether he was in Taylor or Show Low. I don't know which. I don't know which one it was.
JM: Okay, so was her family from this area too? Do you know if they obvious migrated down here, but.
LN: Yeah
JM: But are they still here? What was her last name?
LN: Laxton, she was a Laxton.
JM: A Laxton?
LN: Yeah
JM: Okay, do you know his name, the father's name?
LN: Frank
JM: Frank? Okay, so they got married, and then, when did they move to Show Low?
LN: I don't know. They lived in Show Low, right here. Just south of us here. Right here where the skating rink is? That's where their home was, right there where the skating rink is for the City? That's where their home was.
JM: I didn't know we had a skating rink.
LN: Yeah, it's right back here.
JM: Oh, behind here?
LN: Yeah
JM: Okay, so is this the same property?
LN: This is the same property.
JM: Okay, so you had what, 160 acres?
LN: One hundred sixty acres, fronts from here to Center Street.
JM: Wow!
LN: Through there, all of this.
JM: All of McNeil?
LN: All McNeil, yeah
JM: Did it go as far as Owens, to the street up here, Owens?
LN: Yes, it went clear back to Center Street.
JM: From Center to . . .
LN: Down back.
JM: How far south did it go?
LN: Well, about maybe a half mile from here.
JM: Wow
LN: You know where the road is that goes by the big shopping center there.
JM: Yeah
LN: That's Center Street and we went back there, and when that little shop is there? With vegetables and all, the garden shop?
JM: The Greenhouse?
LN: The Greenhouse. It went back in there where there was a sawmill there in the wash. Reidhead Sawmill.
JM: So that was before the Reidheads had that property?
LN: Yeah, that was way before.
JM: How far south did it go? Did it go to Whipple? To what's Whipple now, Whipple Road?
LN: No, to Owens Road.
JM: Oh, to Owens Road, okay, and then down.
LN: Yeah, down there and then back to Whipple.
JM: Okay
LN: Or it went down there, and that piece of land going south in there is what we used to call the Flat, so it went up there and back, and then on out as far as the Greenhouse and past that.
JM: Quite a bit of land
LN: One hundred and sixty acres. And we kept it all for years. Dad sold that property to the Reidheads for a sawmill. Then when he got older he divided it up to the kids.
JM: Did you farm on it?
LN: Yeah
JM: Farmland, what did you grow on it?
LN: We grew barley, beans, corn, oats. Yep
JM: It's hard to imagine.
LN: Dry land
JM: Dry land, that's right!
LN: No irrigation.
JM: There's no irrigation ditch there.
LN: Yeah, but not on back. For this lot there's irrigation, for this lot here. There's above the ditch. The ditch comes right down through my lot here and across from here down on the bench, clear down to the other end down there. Down from here, it goes from here to Whipples there, almost to Show Low Creek, the pipeline.
JM: So, um
LN: We used to clean the ditch to work out our assessments for digging ditch with a shovel? We, when we were just kids 15 up to 18 years old, we cleaned this ditch with a shovel.
JM: You kept it clean that way, because that was your water. I mean that was drinking water as well as . . .
LN: No, we had wells.
JM: Oh, you had wells. Okay.
LN: We had a well right back of the house here, down here in the wash, 10-½ foot deep.
JM: Ten and a half? That's not real deep is it?
LN: And they packed the water from here up to the old four-room schoolhouse.
JM: Oh, packed it!
LN: You packed it in buckets.
JM: So that would be up by, that land that we're talking about includes the Junior High School.
LN: Yep
JM: Did that include the old school that was across the street?
LN: No, no just where the Junior High is now? That was the borderline. This street here (McNeil) was the borderline of our property.
JM: Okay. But still that, right down here on the corner of 9th and Huning, was the main street, wasn't it? That was the main street, Huning?
LN: Yeah, the one that comes up around, you know.
JM: That makes a jog there by the Owens house?
LN: Yeah there at the Owens, and down to the Library, then turned left and went down to the Ellsworths and then turned right. That was the Ellsworths property, the old Ab Ellsworth property.
JM: That made that jog there.
LN: Uh hum
JM: I see. I wondered why it was there. I saw it on an old map and thought, well that's kind of . . .
LN: And then it went up to the corner where the first light there at the Sonic?
JM: Yes
LN: It turned there and then that road would go around there through the valley and out to the Country Club?
JM: And that was the old freight road.
LN: Yeah, the old. . . that was the one we went to school on, when we went to high school in Snowflake at the academy there.
JM: Yes, when, where, so your father, what was it, Joseph, you said?
LN: Joseph William, they called him Bill.
JM: Bill? Okay, so Bill was born here in Show Low?
LN: Yes, He was born up there in the house where Reidhead's old second-hand store is? He was born right there. And the house here where the skating rink is, that was their home. That's where they were raised right there.
JM: Oh, I see. And so you said he had how many brothers and he had one sister?
LN: One sister and two brothers.
JM: Two brothers, and are any of their family still here?
LN: No, they're gone.
JM: They're gone.
LN: I'm the only one left.
JM: The only one left! Wow!
LN: Of that generation
JM: Well you're the only, from what was in the paper, you're the oldest
LN: Man left in Show Low that was born here.
JM: That's amazing!
LN: I'm 90 years old.
JM: Ninety years old, wow.
LN: I was born November 26, 1916. That's before the cars come. That was before cars. I was about 8, 9, 10 years old before I saw a car.
JM: Wow, well how would they get here, for one thing!
LN: On horses and buggies. I hauled, when I secured a ride, I'd ride with my dad hauling mail from here to Clay Springs. We'd have, you know, a span of mules and a buckboard. To haul the mail from here to Clay Springs we'd leave 7:00 in the morning and get back about 5:00 or 6:00 at night.
JM: All day
LN: All day long
JM: You did that what six days a week?
LN: No, it was only about three or four days.
JM: Three or four days. So your father met your mother here?
LN: Yes
JM: And what was her maiden name?
LN: Mills
JM: Mills! Oh, she was a Mills!
LN: Mills, She was a Mills.
JM: What was her first name?
LN: Maggie
JM: Maggie Mills
LN: Maggie Mills, she lived right over here.
JM: Okay, I was thinking that family was close here.
LN: This property that's across the street belonged to Uncle Leif Mills. I don't know where he got it from, but that's it there.
JM: So, do you know when they got married, what year?
LN: It'd be in about 1915, I imagine, or 14, about '14 I guess.
JM: About during, when World War I was about to start?
LN: Yeah, he was World War I.
JM: Was he in the war?
LN: No, he got to Holbrook and the war was ended.
JM: Oh! Good! What a relief!
LN: Uh hum
JM: So, but he was already married by that time. You said that you were born in 1916. So, are you the oldest?
LN: Yes
JM: And how many children did they have?
LN: They had five.
JM: So, what were their names?
LN: There was Fay. I was the oldest. And then there was my brother Lamar, then Fay, then my brother Garth, then my sister Wanda. She was the youngest. Garth and Wanda got all the music talent.
JM: Oh! Yes, I think I heard that, that Garth was a very good musician.
LN: Yeah, and our sister Wanda was just as bad, just as good, or better. Just as good, not any better. The rest of us, my dad was a violinist. Man he could play that violin.
JM: Wow. Did he play for the dances that were here?
LN: Yeah
JM: Did you play anything?
LN: No. I tried but didn't, didn't make it. (Laughs) I tried to play the clarinet, but I didn't make it.
JM: I know that you had, the school had, they say, four rooms and one of them was a music room where people would . . . it seemed like there was a big emphasis on playing music in those days.
LN: That's when I started during that.
JM: But you didn't carry it on though.
LN: No. When I got through high school I was through.
JM: That was it.
LN: The teacher said there were musicians and then there were people that could play. I was the one that could play, but I was no musician. (Laughs)
JM: Garth got it all! And your brother Lamar, his claim to fame was he was the first mayor in town.
LN: Mayor in town, yeah, and then he was in the grocery business.
JM: Yes, Nick's Market
LN: Nick's Market. Yeah we had that. I learned how to butcher. I got almost as good as he was, butchering. I worked with him. And then we started a Variety store, department store, and I ran it and he ran the grocery part. So that's uh, we done that for years.
JM: Before we get into that, because I want to spend some time when you're talking about that. I want to ask you a little more things about your family. So you were born in 1916 and then so you met and married too, right?
LN: Yeah
JM: So you married a local girl too?
LN: Yeah, she was originally from Missouri. Then she come through into Colorado and then into New Mexico and into Arizona. Her brothers were loggers. Her dad was killed when she was two years old. I mean he drowned.
JM: Oh! What was his name?
LN: Oh, I can't remember his name.
JM: His last name?
LN: Ramsey
JM: Ramsey, okay. So was the drowning an accident?
LN: Stone, Stone Ramsey was his name
JM: Stone Ramsey, was that part of the, because he was working as a logger that he was in the water?
LN: No he was getting a mowing machine, a horse-drawn mowing machine. He was coming across the river.
JM: The Little Colorado?
LN: No, it was one back in Missouri.
JM: Oh back, oh, he didn't make it here. Oh, I see
LN: No, No. She left. She came out here when she was nine years old, my wife.
JM: And what was her name again?
LN: Ramsey
JM: Her first name
LN: Betty
JM: Betty, Betty Ramsey
LN: Betty Ramsey
JM: And so when did you meet her? How old were you?
LN: I was 27, 26, 27. I met her when I came home from World War II.
JM: Okay, that was my next question. Were you in World War II?
LN: Yeah, I was on the European side.
JM: Oh, really? Did you go back to Germany where your grandfather came from?
LN: No, I never got there. I was farther on the east end, the east side of Germany, down by Holland, across France. Africa, Italy, France and Germany. So then I met her when she was working in the grocery store, down at Snowflake, at Smith's Grocery Store. That was when I first met her, then met her at the dances and got to dancing with her.
JM: Oh yeah, those dances were quite the thing.
LN: That was the thing for that day, you know.
JM: That's really how you met people if you didn't go to school with them. It seems like everybody met at the Snowflake High School.
LN: The high school! Yeah! (laughs)
JM: But not you!
LN: No, not me! I courted her for a year and then married her October 7th in '47.
JM: And so then you lived here your whole life?
LN: Yes, no, my first home was that one up here at the Day School?
JM: Okay
LN: Yeah, that was my sister's home, the Day School, and mine was the next one. That was my first home. October the 7th, in '47 we got married.
JM: And how many kids did you have?
LN: Five
JM: Five. Did I ask you that before?
LN: Yeah, I got five. I've got three girls and two boys.
JM: Okay (Laughing) and do any of them live here?
LN: No, I've got my oldest daughter lives in Snowflake. She's a nurse at the clinic. And I've got a son, the next one that lives in Taylor. He's a mechanic, heavy equipment and things. And then my other girl, she lives in Vernon and then one boy in Aura, St. George, Utah. Two boys, and the other girl lives in Gilbert, Arizona.
JM: Well, they're close then, except for the one in Utah. That's not bad! That's really good! You get to see them a lot.
LN: I get to see them once in awhile.
JM: Yes, Father's Day coming up.
LN: Yeah (laughs)
JM: Okay, we've got the family down. So you were here. You remember the Great Depression here.
LN: Yes, Mam, I sure do.
JM: What was it like? What was it like here?
LN: Well, we had the farms and we bottled our stuff, you know, so as far as something to eat, we had it, but we had no money. And it was a tough time.
JM: Let's see, the only store here was the A.C.M.I., right? At that time?
LN: Yeah, Woolford's. Well, and then Ellsworths'. Up there where the carpet shop is on the corner right up Huning on the corner on the left? That was a store, and then down where . . .
JM: So across the street. That was like a hotel, wasn't there a hotel there?
LN: Yeah, a hotel on the other side.
JM: I see, okay
LN: The Penrods.
JM: Yes
LN: The Penrods. But that big one, down, you know where the UPS is? That was the . . .
JM: That was the A.C.M.I.
LN: Yeah, the A.C.M.I. That was one of the first stores that I know of.
JM: Was Woolford running that then?
LN: Yeah, Woolfords, Yes, George Woolford.
JM: So, tough times, no money.
LN: No money. There was just no money to buy shoes or nothing with, you know. You'd go barefooted all summer and have a pair of shoes to go to church and school.
JM: You were like a teenage then?
LN: Yeah, yeah I was a teenager.
JM: Some families had their fathers had to leave to work.
LN: Yeah, my dad had to leave most of the time. He was a logger, a log cutter.
JM: So where did he go?
LN: He went to McNary and Mahoan Rye Fish.
JM: Where?
LN: Mahoan Rye Fish in Lakeside.
JM: Oh, okay
LN: And I helped him cut logs when I was a young guy in the teens. And then I cut logs for Whiteriver when I was 20, 21. I cut a million feet.
JM: Was that when you worked with Ray Butler?
LN: Yeah
JM: At Fort Apache Timber Company?
LN: Yeah
JM: You were in your teens then?
LN: Yeah, No, I was about 20, 21. I cut a million feet there
JM: A million feet! That's a lot of timber!
LN: That's in logs
JM: That is a lot. It must have been, the forest must have been thicker then.
LN: Oh yeah, it's all been cut out. All the old stumps up on the old Ellsworth Hill. There, that's what I help cut when I was 17, 18, about 18 I guess. That was about 800,000 or 900,000 feet of logs there and on the Reservation.
JM: So you did that most of your early years then.
LN: Yeah, I helped dry-land farm for them you know, and
JM: You helped your father?
LN: Yeah, and then I helped Dad cut logs.
JM: So you were with him a lot.
LN: Yeah, with him a lot, yep, I had a good rapport with him.
JM: that's good
LN: Yeah, we had, we did all that where the school is now, you know. And where all that 160 acres is out there where the church is, that's where my brother and I used to raise black-eyed peas to sell to McNary.
JM: Oh down here at this? Oh that Baptist church? Black-eyed peas, huh?
LN: Yep, yeah. We used to raise black-eyed peas there and sell to people in. My brother worked up there and we'd load him up every morning. Brother Lamar, that's where he started as a butcher up there at McNary.
JM: Oh, okay. I wonder how you, you know, how you start things. What makes you begin one day to start to do something. That was how he got a job working at the McNary?
LN: Yeah
JM: You were probably hunters before that, right? Did you hunt a lot before then?
LN: No, I didn't.
JM: No?
LN: No, I never did hunt. I've never killed a deer or a turkey or an elk, but I've cut up hundreds of them.
JM: You know how to do it.
LN: I've cut up 100 of them.
JM: Did you grow chickens and things here?
LN: Yeah, oh yeah, chickens and rabbits/
JM: Did you have cattle?
LN: No. We did have, but my dad sold them when I was about 15, 16 years old. He sold out to the Stocks.
JM: Probably when the Depression was happening.
LN: He had a permit. I think he had a permit for 50 or something like that. I can remember the day Orson Hansen came and took them and drove them up off the hill here. It was kind of a sad day.
JM: Yeah, an end of an era.
LN: Yeah, it was the end of an era.
JM: Did you have horses too?
LN: Yeah, we had horses.
JM: You would have to for him to, how long did he continue being the mail carrier?
LN: He must have had it for about three or four years. He finally bought a Ford Model T, '26, and then he sold his mules a couple years after that. I used to ride with him on the old buckboard, and then with him in the old Model T.
JM: Signs of the times. Oh, Goodness. When was it that you sold that land to Reidhead for the sawmill?
LN: It must have been in uh, around the. He sold it before I come home from the Army.
JM: Okay, during World War II then?
LN: Yeah, just about a year before I got here.
JM: So about '45 then?
LN: Yeah, about '45 something like that, '45 or '46.
JM: Do you know if Highway 60 was it through here yet? About that time?
LN: No, there was no. If you went to Phoenix you had to go through Whiteriver around that, and come out down at Globe. I was 17 years old before I got to go to Phoenix. I went down with a guy with a load of lumber.
JM: So, that was part of that logging time, huh?
LN: Yeah
JM: How long did it take you to get there?
LN: Oh man, it took us about, let's see we left at daylight and it was afternoon before we got there.
JM: To Phoenix, wow! That's pretty good!
LN: Around 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon.
JM: Amazing, a full day!
LN: Some of the corners, they'd have to back up, go around and back up to get around them corners with a truckload of lumber. That's how narrow the roads were.
JM: In the logging trucks?
LN: Yeah, lumber trucks
JM: And those are long anyway, so it must have been quite hairy.
LN: Old Ford trucks, flatbeds.
JM: Okay, so you went into the War, and when you came out, was that when you, or did you continue logging or did you?
LN: No, when I first come home I worked cement. I finished cement, you know, in houses for floors.
JM: Were there a lot of houses being built at that time?
LN: No, no, just when the first airport deal there, I helped pour the floor for that, for the airport.
JM: Did you work for somebody?
LN: Yeah, I worked for Jim McNeil.
JM: Okay
LN: Jim McNeil, I worked for him. And then my brother and I was on our own. There were a lot of cabins and stuff up at Lakeside? We poured the floors for them. And he started in the grocery business.
JM: Oh, that was Lamar you were with?
LN: Uh hum, and then in '47 I started with him.
JM: When you got married?
LN: Yeah
JM: So you went into the grocery store business.
LN: You know where Pat's Place is?
JM: Yeah
LN: We started in, rented from Maxwells across the street where the bank is?
JM: Okay, where the. . . okay
LN: Frontier Bank is? (now National Bank of Arizona) Then over there where Pat's is, we built that ourselves, Lamar and I. That's where we started.
JM: And where did you get your food from?
LN: We first got our, when we opened up we got $900 worth from Babbits in Holbrook, and $800 worth of groceries from Schusters, and we borrowed $50 from our uncle for the change. (Laughs) so that's how we started out.
JM: And you got to be the butcher, huh?
LN: And learned how to be a butcher from him.
JM: Yeah, he taught you that.
LN: And then we were in there, built a store across the street where the back is there? We built a big building there. We started a department store there, a variety store. And then it burned down on me.
JM: Uh oh! How long did you have it?
LN: Oh, about 6 years.
JM: Oh, what did you name it?
LN: Nick's Variety Store, Nick's Department and Variety Store.
JM: Okay, so there was a Nick's on either side of the street. That street wasn't that wide then.
LN: No, no, and then we went and built the one down on the corner where all the automobiles are now? We built a big grocery store there.
JM: Oh, okay. Down here on the corner of 260 and okay, by the bank down there? Okay.
LN: Yeah, across from the bank.
JM: And what was the name of that place.
LN: Nick's Market
JM: Another Nick's Market
LN: Yeah, we kept the same name. It was a big, nice big store and we done well until a chain came in. From Friday night to Monday morning we were through. It was that quick.
JM: Wow
LN: Yep, we hung on for a little bit to try to get rid of our stuff, you know.
JM: What year was that?
LN: I forget what year it is.
JM: I remember coming here and going to Nick's Market in the '50s and so it must have been later. I don't remember when Safeway came here. I'm from Globe.
LN: I think it was round about the '50s, in the '50s, about '52 or '53, in there.
JM: That's about when that Highway came in.
LN: Yeah, when the highway came in.
JM: That was your demise, because it brought other stores up here.
LN: Well, we had Maxwell's and Caldwell. Caldwells was in Lakeside, but there were two stores here, Maxwell's and us, and we were just across the street from each other.
JM: Maxwell's had a grocery store too?
LN: Yeah, Maury, one of the boys, Artie's boy. But he finally went out of business. And I went out of business in '81.
JM: Oh, in '81
LN: It got where there was the department store business and I don't know, it just got where. And all the, I had a nice fabric store, a real good one, better than you can find now. Then they started buying from Japan and China and everything, and clothes got cheaper than cloth. And so I went out of business. That's the only reason. I thought as long as there were women that they wouldn't quit selling.
JM: Cheaper to buy clothes than it is to make them. And you can't get good fabric anymore either.
LN: No a lot of the fabric I see in the stores is the same kind of fabric I sold. It's just that old. Yeah, the fabric business, the warehouses and like that, would have a place for fabric four times as big as this house. It got down to where this room would be big enough. And old Ledbetter's, the biggest one I bought from, served four hundred and some odd customers, within 4 months, was down to 3 or 4. It just went down just that fast. Zippers, buttons, all that kind stuff just quit. You couldn't even give it away, so a lot of it just went to the dump.

For Arizonans exhausted by the extremist Tea Party machinations of freshman Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), who many view more dedicated to the Tea Party's beltway defiance of the Obama administration than the creation of jobs or protecting health care and investments in education, the hands-on rural American experience and Main Street platform ideas of public interest attorney Benally Baldenegro have galvanized a bipartisan campaign across the district's diverse constituency.
"We're extremely disappointed in Rep. Gosar," said Vera Skorupski, a long-time registered Republican from Sedona, Arizona and a campaign supporter of Benally Baldenegro. Citing Gosar's lack of support for Medicare and health care reform, Skorupski praised Benally Baldenegro for not ignoring the "compassionate conservative" tradition abandoned by "radical" Tea Party activists like Gosar and bringing together Democrats, Republicans and Independents.
Raised in the mining town of Kayenta on the Navajo Nation, the Harvard-educated attorney Benally Baldenegro will also be the first female American Indian member of Congress, if elected.
Hailed as one of the state's rising political stars, the Flagstaff-based Benally Baldenegro has been on a fast track to success in Arizona. As the first Native American to graduate from Arizona State University's prestigious Barrett Honor's College, she attended Harvard's Law School and then earned a Masters in Public Policy from the John F. Kennedy School of Government. Over the past decade, she has worked in Washington, DC, Portland and Tucson, Arizona, serving as a project specialist at the Inter Tribal Council of Arizona (ITCA), developing tribal self-reliance initiatives and dealing with federal health care legislation and regulations, and as a public interest attorney and expert on business, lending and rural development issues.

Started practicing today with the Stan Black Pearl DS and found this video by bowman123ish on youtube.com along with Sonny's many comments regarding this and I think I am getting off to a good start. I made a sting out of d-loop material to practice with, set the Morex to a medium kind of setting and also installed the training pin to practice with. This video although many will criticize it for not suggesting correct form, helps the beginner to see how a bt works and how to begin to set it up and practice with it.
Addendum: 4:30 AM on a Saturday morning practicing back tension release, LOL, I think I have drank the Kool-Aid!

Hotly Anticipated Wine Documentary "SOMM" will World Premiere at
Napa Valley Film Festival, November 7-11, 2012
Napa Valley Film Festival, November 7-11, 2012
SOMM Documentary premiere teaser trailer, opening documentary at the 2012 Napa Valley Film Festival from Forgotten Man Films on Vimeo.
The Napa Valley Film Festival will kick off with the world premiere of the documentary feature film SOMM on Wednesday, November 7, 2012. SOMM (slang for "sommelier") follows four talented young sommeliers as they cram for the grueling, notoriously difficult Master Sommelier exam. The exam - a test with one of the lowest pass rates in the world - covers everything to do with the pairing of wine and food on a global level.
"We are honored to host the world premiere of SOMM," said Marc Lhormer, Executive & Artistic Director of the Napa Valley Film Festival (NVFF). "Not only is the content a perfect fit for the food and wine-obsessed culture of Napa Valley and the San Francisco Bay Area, but the film itself is a tremendously well-executed, hilarious and compelling thrill ride of a documentary that will appeal to a broad movie-going audience."
In addition to its four engaging subjects, SOMM also includes appearances and enlightening commentary from a who's who of top food and wine personalities, including sommelier Rajat Parr, chef Michael Mina, winemaker Bo Barrett, wine legend Fred Dame, and many others.

Benign Tumors
Common Types of Benign Tumors continued...
Two other types of benign fat tumors are lipoblastomas, which occur in young children, and hibernomas.
Meningiomas are tumors that develop from the membrane surrounding the brain and spinal cord. About nine in 10 are benign. Many grow slowly. Others grow more quickly. Treatment varies depending on the location of the meningioma and the symptoms it causes. Symptoms may include headache and weakness on one side, seizures, personality changes, and visual problems.
Sometimes the doctor will choose to watch the tumor for a time. If surgery is needed, its success depends on your age, the location of the tumor, and whether it is attached to anything. Radiation treatment may be used for tumors that can't be removed.
Myomas are tumors that grow from muscle. Leiomyomas grow from smooth muscle, which is found in internal organs such as the stomach and uterus. They can start in the walls of blood vessels. In the wall of the uterus, leiomyomas are often called fibroids. A rare benign tumor of skeletal muscle is rhabdomyoma. These tumors may be simply watched. To address symptoms, they may be shrunk with medication or removed with surgery.
Nevi (moles) are growths on the skin. They can range in color from pink and tan to brown or black. You may develop new moles until about age 40. Moles that look different than ordinary moles (dysplastic nevi) may be more likely to develop into a type of skin cancer (melanoma). For this reason, it is important to have your skin checked regularly by a health care professional. This is especially true if your moles look unusual, grow or change in shape, have irregular borders, or change in color or in any other way. Sometimes it is necessary to remove a mole like this to check it for signs of cancer.
Neuromas grow from nerves. Two other types of nerve tumors are neurofibromas and schwannomas. These benign nerve tumors can occur almost anywhere in nerves that run throughout the body. Neurofibromas are more common in people with an inherited condition called neurofibromatosis. Surgery is the most common type of treatment for benign nerve tumors.
Osteochondromas are the most common type of benign bone tumor. These tumors usually appear as a painless bump or bumps near the joint such as the knee or shoulder. Often, the doctor will simply watch this benign tumor with X-rays. Surgery may be needed if the tumor causes symptoms such as pain or pressure on nerves or blood vessels.
Papillomas are tumors that grow from epithelial tissue and project in finger-like fronds. They can be benign or malignant. They can grow in the skin, cervix, breast duct, or mucous membrane covering the inside of the eyelid (conjunctiva), for example. These tumors can result from direct contact with an infection such as human papillomavirus (HPV). Some types of papillomas go away on their own. In some cases, surgery is needed to rule out cancer.

In 1979, Benny Parsons scored a career first in this No. 27 Chevrolet Monte Carlo owned by M.C. Anderson. The race was the Los Angeles Times 500 at Ontario Motor Speedway and Parsons led 56 laps before powering to the win in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series™ season finale. The victory was his first ever at the California track. Now, for the first time, this 1:24 scale die-cast of Parsons' 1979 car is being made available to collectors as part of the NASCAR Classics series from Lionel NASCAR Collectibles. Just like Parsons' 1979 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, the die-cast features Benny Parsons' name above the windows, Goodyear tires, and is produced with a detailed engine block. To top it off, this die-cast has a gunmetal finish that shines like polished steel and is sure to take center stage in any collection.

My husband and I stayed here for an overnight away. Had a great time! Great rooms, pleasant staff, and a nice restaurant. It was within walking distance to 'Hilarities', where we saw a show, and near many other places downtown. We parked in the parking lot next door, and was $20, so just be aware of that. Would like to stay here again during Christmas. Bet it will be beautiful all decorated!
Mediocre 4.0
I expected a nicer room. The key cards to both the elevator and room failed three times in one night, and we didn't get them near anything to de-magnetize them. The room amenities were disappointing. I'd rather stay in a Hampton Inn or Holiday Inn Express for less than half the price and nicer.

I've stayed here a couple of times before. It was the night of Hurricane Sandy this time, so I was happy to have power except the TV was out. There was water leaking in the room from the outside roof, which was probably because of the hurricane. However the small bug in the shower freaked me out a bit, but I'm sensitive to any type of bug. Overall I felt safe and the room was very clean otherwise and the beds were very comfortable.

When I saw a sportsman's duffel made with real bits of Metrodome, there was only one possible outcome: a swift purchase. After the purchase, Duluth Pack said, "And we'll see you tomorrow night!" and shipped this exquisitely handcrafted, no-nonsense piece of American goodness to me the next day. And just like my nostalgia for Game 7 of the 1991 World Series, I am sure the 'Domer' will last a lifetime. In fact, this would most certainly earn Ron Swanson's seal of approval (should it exist); for now, mine will have to do. Cheers.

Written By Bob, Chesapeake, VA on Thursday, June 20, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I agree with other reviews that the highs are very clear and the speakers are very loud, but they are by no means "mid-bass" speakers. They are mid-range loudspeakers that lack any low end. They are advertised as having a frequency response of 135Hz-6.5kHz but there is not much response at all below 2kHz. Never again will I buy a product that doesn't publish the frequency response plot along with it. Lesson learned. Pros: Very loud, clear highs. Cons: Absolutely no low-end (below about 2kHz).

First Quilts On the First
Thank you, AnneMarie, for your First on the First series. It's been a lot of fun and I'm happy to be included!
9 comments:
My first quilt was made with Funkey Monkey also!ReplyDelete
I love the monkey!ReplyDelete
with my first quilt, I spent days agonizing over the fabric choice, and it was only a double nine-patch with four fabrics!ReplyDelete
awww, that's a perfect first quilt. I love the Funky Monkey - especially the girl one.ReplyDelete
I loved your piece over at Gen X, you absolutely had me laughing with the bit about your best early sewing skill was the shopping :)ReplyDelete
I love the monkey quilt!!ReplyDelete
Your first quilt is a treasure--so cute! No child would ever notice any wonkiness.ReplyDelete
Just been over to GenX to read about your quilt. Great laugh. Clearly there's hope for us newbies!!ReplyDelete
Hi Lee,ReplyDelete
I'm your newest follower, also from Wisconsin! I loved your story about your first quilt. I think you did an amazing job considering you were a new sewer/quilter. I am pretty much self-taught everything, with a little instruction as a child from my grandma on sewing on an old old Singer and casting on and doing the knit stitch. But I was hooked, and have loved making things all my life. I just didn't know how to do anything. Then I figured it out on my own, unfortunately learning from mistake after mistake. The good news is once you make a time consuming mistake it is a lesson well learned, right?
Please come visit me at my new blog, Ric Rac and Polka Dots. I am brand new, but have lots of fun planned to share with everyone. Bring your friends!!! I hope to see you there.

The 10 years between "Men in Black II" and "Men in Black III," which opens Friday, may seem like a long time, but it hardly registers on the list of movies with longest gaps between sequels.

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Q&A Articles & Videos Our take on the NAD VISO 1 AP by Ralph Graves Listen to music on your smartphone or tablet? Stream it wirelessly to the NAD VISO 1 AP and enjoy detailed, lifelike sound. This modern-looking system features both Apple AirPlay and Bluetooth wireless audio streaming technologies, which means it's compatible with most smart devices out there. Whether you own an iPhone®, iPad®, or Android™ smartphone or tablet, you can experience accurate, room-filling sound from your favorite audio files, music apps, and even video or game soundtracks. The smooth lines of the VISO 1 AP make it an attractive addition to most any décor. Sophisticated design The system is a composition of curved, flowing lines and surfaces, giving the VISO 1 a beautifully organic look while enhancing the acoustic performance of the speakers. Attention-grabbing sound The VISO 1 AP contains an array of sophisticated electronic circuitry. The system bypasses the audio circuitry in your portable device, handling the incoming digital music signal with its own precise, audiophile-quality DAC (digital-to-analog converter). Each of the two high-performance full-range drivers has its own amplifier, ensuring accurate, robust sound quality. And the two drivers are housed in separate internal enclosures to prevent acoustic cross-interference, keeping the sound clean and clear. The system was co-designed with NAD's sister company PSB, known for their high-performance speakers. Their expertise went into the VISO 1 AP's carefully constructed woofer. It handles the low frequencies, delivering full, musical bass. A special circuit compensates for clipping, so even at maximum volume there's no harsh distortion with your music. You'll enjoy a spacious soundfield that has real presence. High-fidelity Bluetooth Another key to the VISO 1 AP's exceptional wireless sound quality is aptX® audio coding, an advanced type of Bluetooth wireless streaming that retains virtually all the detail of the audio signal it carries. And if your Bluetooth device doesn't have aptX, don't worry — the VISO 1 AP is also backwards-compatible with earlier forms of Bluetooth. So you can wirelessly stream your music from almost any portable device and still enjoy great sound. The convenience of Apple AirPlay Are you an Apple fan? AirPlay technology lets you wirelessly connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch® or computer running iTunes® to the VISO 1 AP via your Wi-Fi® network. Stream audio from your Apple portable directly to the system. Or stream music from the iTunes library on your laptop or desktop computer and use your Apple portable as a remote to make selections, as well as adjust volume. (Requires Apple's free Remote app.) Even more playback options The VISO 1 AP has an optical digital input, so you can make a direct connection from your compatible media server or disc player and enjoy exceptional sound. A USB port on the back lets you make a direct connection with your Apple portable device for playback and recharging.

We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Audio Section Variety of Sources Convenience Features Audio Section NAD Amplifier + PSB Speakers: The VISO 1 AP wireless AirPlay music system combines the engineering expertise of two iconic Hi-Fi companies - NAD Electronics & PSB Speakers. The NAD VISO 1 AP provides smooth, accurate, & clear sound with an airy, 3-dimensional soundstage. NAD Direct Digital Amplifier: At the heart of the VISO 1 AP is NAD's proprietary Direct Digital amplifier technology. NAD's Direct Digital amplifier technology eliminates all analog circuitry & offers very high efficiency & low power consumption. Bi-Amplification: Each loudspeaker in the NAD VISO 1 AP is directly coupled to its own amplifier channel (50W sub, 15W right speaker, 15W left speaker), eliminating power-robbing passive crossover components. Since the exact load condition for each amplifier channel is known, power output can be optimized to make the most efficient use of the overall power available. Note: The system's total amplifier power output is 80 Watts (50 watts to sub & 15 watts to each speaker). PSB Speakers: NAD teamed up with its award-winning sister company, PSB Speakers, to make the NAD VISO 1 AP the ultimate compact music system for your AirPlay device; with a pair of advanced full-range drivers & a single high power-handling woofer. Two Full-Range Drivers: The full-range drivers utilize a focused neodymium magnet system & a 1" voice coil with fiberglass former to give it both high sensitivity & high power handling. There is a unique black anodized aluminum dome/cone assembly attached to the motor, which is terminated with a soft rubber surround. The total diameter is 2.75" with a one-inch dome in the center. This provides enough cone area to extend response down to 180Hz, yet the dome allows excellent high frequency dispersion & extension to 28kHz. These drivers have their own separate enclosures that are optimized for a low frequency cut-off of 500Hz. This allows for ideal integration with the woofer response while lowering distortion at high playback levels. Single Woofer: The woofer uses a very powerful magnet & specially designed pole piece to improve sensitivity & lower distortion. A 1.25" voice coil moves the 5.75" cone on a high temperature fiberglass voice coil former. By carefully integrating the driver, enclosure, & amplifier, a highly effective sixth order alignment is utilized to extend bass response to below 50Hz (with the -6dB point at 33Hz). Note: The system's total frequency response is 50Hz to 20,000 Hz or 33Hz to 28,000 Hz (-6dB). Bass Reflex Cabinet: The VISO 1 AP wireless AirPlay music system features a bass reflex enclosure with a side-firing port for increased efficiency and better bass extension. Digital Soft Clipping Circuit: The NAD VISO 1 AP also employ a Digital Soft Clipping circuit to prevent harsh distortion & possible speaker damage when playing at loud volume levels. Near Field: The NAD VISO 1 AP includes a special feature that subtly reduce the amount of high frequency power to optimize performance for "near filed" listening. You may prefer this setting if you listen at a very close distance or have a very small room. Variety of Sources AirPlay Technology: Apple's AirPlay technology allows music, downloaded to iTunes, to be streamed (wired or wirelessly) from your Mac or PC to the NAD VISO 1 AP. You can even bypass the computer entirely, and stream high-quality audio directly from your Apple iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad (all without the need to dock the device). iTunes Streaming: The NAD VISO 1 AP is able to play audio from your computer's iTunes account either wirelessly (WiFi) or via a wired (Ethernet) connection using AirPlay streaming technology. When connected to the same network as a computer running iTunes, the VISO 1 AP can appear as an output option in the pop-up menu at the bottom of the iTunes window. You can then browse your iTunes collection on your computer and stream music to the VISO 1 AP. By downloading Apple's free Remote app onto your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad you don't even need to be in the same room as the NAD VISO 1 AP or your computer to play, pause, skip, and stop the songs in your iTunes music library. To use the AirPlay feature you need a Mac or Windows-based PC running iTunes (10.2.2 or later) connected to the same network as the VISO 1 AP. Apple Device Streaming: AirPlay also lets you wirelessly stream your stored music and music apps on your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad directly to the VISO 1 AP; so there's no need to dock your Apple device. The NAD VISO 1 AP's AirPlay feature works with iPod touch, iPhone , iPad, and iPad mini with iOS 4.2.1 or later; connected to the same wireless network. USB (type-A) Port: The NAD VISO 1 AP's rear-panel USB (type-A) allows connection of your USB mass storage class device or Apple iPod/iPhone/iPad device. USB Mass Storage Class Compliant: The rear-panel USB (type-A) port allows you to connect a USB Mass Storage Class (MSC) compliant device; such as your Android smartphone, portable digital audio player, or USB thumbdrive. The USB port enables audio playback & control of music files stored on a portable USB mass-storage class device. USB devices that can be charged via USB will be charged when plugged into the USB port and the VISO 1 AP is turned on. USB Direct: The NAD VISO 1 AP also supports digital music playback from an iPod, iPhone, or iPad using its rear-panel USB (type-A) port. Simply plug your compatible Apple device into the speaker's rear-panel USB port, using the cable that came with your iPod/iPhone/iPad. Stored music and music apps from your connected Apple device can be played through the VISO 1 AP, bypassing the iPod/iPhone D/A converter for better sound quality. The iPod/iPhone/iPad can be controlled by the included remote, or you can continue to use the Apple device's clickwheel or touchscreen. The remote offers limited control (Play/Pause, Fast Forward/Reverse, & Previous/Next Track). Advanced music navigation and viewing song/artist information must still be done through your Apple device. Your Apple iPod/iPhone's battery will be charged while connected to the receiver (max. 1A). This unit will not charge the iPad. Bluetooth aptX: The NAD VISO 1 AP uses a new version of Bluetooth called aptX, which is a "Hi-Fi" version offering the same performance as a wired connection. The built-in Bluetooth aptX wireless high-fidelity reception allows many Bluetooth enabled device to seamlessly integrate with the NAD VISO 1 AP. This allows wireless integration of your iPod touch, iPhone, & iPad; as well as Android & Windows-based smartphones or tablets. The VISO1 AP supports audio streaming from stored music and music apps on your Bluetooth-enabled device. Music navigation and song/artist information will still be handled by the Bluetooth mobile device (not the VISO 1 AP). Note: Due to the differences in Bluetooth technology, some Bluetooth enabled devices may be incompatible, function improperly, or may not support all features when used with the VISO 1 AP.Apple Device Compatibility Chart: The NAD VISO 1 AP is "Made for iPod/iPhone/iPad" and supports the following Apple device functionality (as of 6/5/2013).

I purchased this product after detailed investigation and comparison between this unit vs Polk Woodbourne, Samsung DA E-750, and Marshall Stanmore. First what I noticed that speaker is made of the cheap quality plastic with few sharp edges of the module and remote control as well. But that was something that I could live with. What I couldn't live with is the fact that unit was defective. Speaker didn't want to get into a standby mode, actually it only partially went into standby mode. Some buttons were still lit when some were off. The heat radiating from the unit while it was in "standby" was enough to keep the small bedroom warm. I tried multiple times to reset the unit following the instructions but it wouldn't go into reboot mode. Next morning I called Crutchfield tech support and was told that they don't have that unit available to determine if that is just my unit's problem or not but was offered to keep an eye on it and report back if anything changes. I sent email to NAD support and was given a direct phone number of Viso tech support manger. He was very nice guy but couldn't offer any solution. He wasn't even aware at first what to do and needed to talk to his tech support who basically just told me what I already read in the manual. Tech support was clueless on what troubleshooting needed to be done. After few frustrating days of dealing with the heat from that unit, I returned that unit. I can't believe that NAD released half baked product. Pros: None Cons: Excessive heat. Non existing tech support. 3 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great product with few weaknesses Written By Somz, Houston, TX on Wednesday, November 06, 2013 I was in the market for a high end speaker dock chose the NAD for it's all digital amplifier, PSB developed drivers and multiple input options (airplay/bluetooth aptx, usb, optical). I've had the unit for about 2 months now and have put over 100 hours of music/TV through it via both wired and wireless inputs. I can confidently say that the sound is great. As others have stated, it sounds much larger than you would expect for a system its size. You don't really get a stereo effect, but that's due to the inherent limitation of this type of system. The bass and midrange are crystal clear and give the sound a very substantial feel. The bass is huge but I do feel that it can be slightly overpowering at times. Vocals sound and acoustic instruments are particularly clean and detailed. I was concerned about the lack of tweeters and how it would affect the treble, especially since other systems in the price range all have tweeters while the NAD only has 1 woofer and 2 full range drivers. The treble is there, but it takes a back seat to the bass and midrange. This may be due to the lack of dedicated tweeters, but it may also be how the designers wanted the system to sound since the full range drivers supposedly have a response up to 28khz. The amplifier is an interesting component of the system since it's derived from NAD's high end M2 digital amplifier. Even with the volume turned up really high, I can't detect any background hiss and I've never heard any pops or clicks. Pros: Huge bass and detailed midrange, very clean amplifier, looks great Cons: Treble is average, bass can sometimes be overpowering, Airplay connection can drop out 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Plays midranges with unbelievable clarity. Written By KenK, Chicago on Wednesday, October 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) First, it took me over a month of tested several other wireless speakers from Bose, Klipsch and others to make this purchase. The ones I tested at local stores did not meet my expectations for the comparable price. I decided to take the leap without hearing this model since Crutchfield has a great return policy. Boy am I glad I did. I've heard sounds in music that I never heard before. (In a very good way). I always do a test with Pipe Organ music since the lows and highs are extreme. I can now actually hear the words to songs with clarity. The music plays as is intended. While I do have this hooked up via the digital optical cable to the TV, I found it not earth shaking. Klipsch did seem to have a deeper bass but for all music, this model was the way to go. I tested the Bluetooth with my android Galaxy 3 and it played flawless. My wife uses the Airplay for the ipad and iPhone. So far going into week two with no real complaints other then I had to reconnect the wireless. Not sure if its my router that dropped it but so far so good. Pros: Sounds incredible. Crystal clear midranges. Music sounds perfect Cons: Not really a con but price is high. But 100% worth every penny. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Review and Comparison Written By BarryW, Albuquerque, NM on Monday, September 30, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Well what a pleasant surprise. I received the unit in excellent condition and had it pumping out music within minutes. The first thing you notice is its size. It's larger than most higher-end Airplay units I own. I put it through its paces with everything from classical to some rap tracks. It is simply awesome sounding even at high volumes. It packs enough ump to fill even a large room with vaulted ceilings. I bought it to replace my B&W Zeppelin Air after the second one died. I will not be buying another Zeppelin because of the quality issues I've had. I also have a B&W A5 that I simply find wanting. If you are going to buy an Airplay speaker and you are like me, a bit of an audiophile, you will be very happy with the NAD unit. If you're like me and work in the electronics field, avoid the Zeppelin's quality issues. One issue I do have with the VISO1 is the remote control. The battery will not fit without modifying the remote. I have no plans to use it so its more of a nuisance. Pros: Awesome sound, simple installation, looks Cons: remote 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Exchanged the Marantz consolette for this NAD (in black) and have zero Written By RayZn23, Wyckoff, NJ on Saturday, September 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Let me start by saying that I first purchased a Marantz Consolette which given the current discounted price is quite a bargain. In many ways it lives up to its fine reputation but It still has its flaws. I tried to load a firmware update but no matter what I tried to do, the update would always fail. Its iOS app also never worked properly. These were some of the reasons why I returned the unit and purchased an NAD VISO 1 AP as its replacement. I am very happy that I made the switch. To me the NAD sounds better than the Marantz since it has much fuller bass and I love the fact that I can do Bluetooth or Apple airplay. It does not play quite as loud as the Marantz but I'm still very happy with the overall volume which has no distortion even at maximum setting. Sure the Marantz looks lovely in the back and has an excellent remote compared to the cheesy one that comes with the NAD, but when I look at the front of each unit I like the NAD better which is unique and extremely stylish in its own right. I also like the fact that the NAD is an all digital design which includes an optical input. I paid full price for the NAD ($599) which was the same price as the discounted Marantz so it was an even trade. The Consolette is a fine piece of equip & when given an HQ music source it does sound fantastic. On the flip-side, lower bit rate files can sound pretty awful. The NAD sounds pretty great with ALL kinds music. I actually find myself using the BT mode more than Airplay, it's that good Pros: All digital amp. Superb dynamic range. Has both Bluetooth and AirPlay with excellent pairing. Very cool touch panel. Bluetooth sounds so good I find myself leaving it in this mode most of the time (for ease of use). Clean crisp sound with awesome bass. Very stylish. Provides an optical input. Connects to my home network easily via wired or wireless connection. Cons: Cheesy remote. Maximum available volume does not compare to some of the competition. When left in power standby mode for an extended period, it will often lose its network settings so I have to unplug it fully so it can reset itself after I restore power (which may be the fault of my Apple router and not the NAD; to its credit the NAD does retrieve its network DNS settings quickly after power back up). 4 out of 5 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Outstanding sound and portability Written By Layne, Columbus, OH on Wednesday, August 28, 2013 The NAD VISO1 ap is a beautiful piece of equipment. I find myself looking at it frequently marveling at its visual and sonic beauty. It is bigger and more substantial than I initially thought it might be from the pictures but it can easily be carried with one hand. The sound feels as if it comes from a very large speaker system. I'd heard that about Bose systems but never thought perosnally that they sounded "big". This one in fact really does. The sound is so clean and pure, no buzzing form the case nor any unpleasant harmonics. The treble, bass and midrange are in good proportion. That is fortunate because I don't see any way to change the relative amounts of each. The VISO has more power than you would need for any likely home application including outside. As is typical with NAD products the amplifier is more than up to the task. I had high expectations from NAD and they have exceeded them. An absolutley wonderful piece of sound equipment. Pros: Fantastic sound, easy of set up, easy portability and beautiful to look at. Cons: Little in the way of adjustments. That could also be a "Pro" too. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked How does this unit compare to Samsung DA-E750 and Polk Woodbourne? They are all at the same price level but have very different specs. I am not a basshead but like to enjoy reasonable bass when one is present. Which unit would you recommend and why? Thank you for your input. [ Leonid Jan 01, 2014 ] 6 answers No need to return the entire unit just because the remote is broken by your husband. The remote is very plasticy and easy to break for the battery cover, which is quite a downside. But I barely use it. Plus, you can easily purchase another remote from NAD. [ Jimmy Jan 29, 2014 ] No need to return the entire unit just because the remote is bad. You can easily purchase a remote from NAD. Just send an inquiry form on their site. [ Jimmy Jan 29, 2014 ] Thank you Mary for your input. I had a chance to hear Samsung DA E-750 with Bass boost, it really increases bass but at the same time it completely distorts mids and highs to the point that makes bass boost a useless feature. That's why I am looking for unit with original natural boost. [ Leonid Jan 02, 2014 ] Hi Leonid, Well, when I was choosing which speaker was right for me, the Polk Woodbourne wasn't available. However the Samsung DA-E750 was, and I was very interested in what it had to offer. I especially liked the idea of it being powered by vacuum tubes. I am a musician and guitarist, and my amplifiers I play through have vacuum tubes in them so I know what good tubes can do for your sound. But to be balanced, they are an extra expense when you have to replace them, and at times they can be microphonic. But I wouldn't suspect that would be a problem with the unit,it's just an observation. Also, I was a little under impressed with the Samsung's style, if that's what you would call it. To me, it is an uninspiring cherry wood box. It really doesn't have an aesthetic appeal to me. But I know that is not the major factor when buying a speaker of this price so I didn't really put much stock into that factor. I would bet the down firing subwoofer sounds great for bass, but I've never heard it in person so I can't really say. Also, the little dock that comes out of the back, how long do you think it would be before that gets broken in some way? I don't know. But the Viso 1 AP is awesome!!!! I can tell you that I am very satisfied with my purchase. One of the deciding factors in purchasing the Viso was the amount of user feedback I saw on the Crutchfield site. The older version had 18 reviews and I think the Airplay version has 5 reviews. If you go back and read them, I can tell you that they are all right on the money. Plus there was a fair amount of reviews available on the internet from audiophile type reviews that were all positive so I felt very comfortable making this purchase without ever hearing it in person. I use mainly Airplay for all my music, and I get wonderful deep bass, excellent clarity, and professional sound. Nothing is muddy, it sounds clear even at full volume. My character allowance is topping out so I can't type more... [ BRIAN Jan 01, 2014 ] Don't know about other products but the NAD VISO did not allow any bass adjustment. Sound was great but you are not able to adjust for more bass. [ MARY ALICE Jan 01, 2014 ] No idea. I settled on the B&W Zeppelin Air instead. I own three Zeppelins, and passed on the NAD Viso. I liked the aesthetics and sound of the Zeppelin better.
