A sign for Raymond Cables just fell off my T.V. and sent broken glass all over the place.

The shampoo in both my showers is allways finding it's way to the floor.

What has fallen in your house or broke while you were rockin out?

Just curious if I am alone?

    My system causes earthquakes.:D

    But don't trip, I only cause massive ones every ten years or so.

    I blew out a halogen light bulb once. Admittedly, the bulb was old, and one of the other three that were installed at the same time had gone already in peaceful times, but this one went on a heavy bass beat with my Mon 10s. I was so proud :D

    I have my RM7500 sats on quarter round shelves mounted in the front corners. One of them is right above my computer. I guess it's not perfectly level. One time at about 80% volume, that thing jumped off, broke the speaker leads and smashed into my cordless keyboard. Keys were flying!:D

    Yeah, I reassembled the keyboard but it still has battle scars. I got a new tweeter from work because it broke the magnet off.

    Haha.... i love this thread.

    I have an old infinity center speaker that i use for my bedroom system but 2/4 of the prongs on the grill are broken so it sits on there very loose. So every time i even get a little decent volume say around 90db the thing likes to jump off and do flips all the way down to the ground.

    I have thought about ticky tackying it on (very technical term i do not know if everyone could comprhend that one:) ) But then i would not have the fun of watchin my grill go base jumping a few times a week.

    Well I did it again.
    There I was minding my own business just listening to AC/DC at reference level when my all of the sudden I hear (barely) a crashing sound.
    One of my nice crystal lamps crashed to the ground and smashed into a million pieces.
    Now I have to go clean up glass.:mad:
    My soon to be new wife really liked the pair of those also.
    Now there is just one.:(

    Well off I go.

    BTW is the reference level supposed to be that loud?
    I can not stay in the room when it is there.
    Just curious.

    was having a great day listening to some hard core techno when my neighbor showed up in my living room (scared the crap out of me since i couldnt hear him come in) but he nicely asked if i could turn it down cause his snow boarding boots fell off the shelf he kept them on and almost took him out.. the impressive part of that is his room and the sub were about 70 ft apart..
