What is the net of using an 8ohm l-pad in front of a 4ohm driver?
AI says I'm insane for even thinking about it. But I've got two nice l-pads (8ohm) and two tweets that need tuned a bit (4ohm). Does it net into a mystery resistance between 8 and 4, or do I get something truly off the charts as AI wants me to believe?

Any movies set in downtown Mexico City?
I feel like there were some '90's or early 00's movies that were big independents set in big building parts of Mexico City, but I never caught them. What are the best films set in a very urban, downtown part of Mexico City? Saw an insta from Ochoa (the Mexico GK) set in Manhattan but I would have believed Mexico City, is what caught my eye and made me ask.

All the money spent on F1 promotion and broadcasting is just a ploy from big-metric to get American kids to think in kph and kilograms instead of mph and pounds.

Excessively long songs that still work?
I feel like this is going to get a lot of Queen and Elton and other glam era replies. For me the kings of it are GnR with Estranged and of course November Rain. Both worth every second.
Inspired by this post. Looking for songs of at least 6 minutes or longer that still hit and don't get boring.

At one time I had a nice Pioneer 5.1 setup with the Andrew Jones SP series, sniffed at/slept on but seriously good sound IMO. And I've always liked Pioneer amps. That came out just before ARC, or at least before heavy ARC adoption, so getting everything sync'd was fiddly. Due to WAF and also fairly buried dialog with that setup it eventually became my office setup and the living room has a Bose 700 soundbar now (again sniffed at, but if you just want a decent sounding TV it's very good at that job).
Today, with ARC actually being decent at keeping things linked, and good 2.1 amps being offered by everyone (Denon, Marantz, Onkyo, Yamaha) I've got an itch to get some large mains and a sub and get back into "serious" gear.
So I'm looking for experiences of anyone who has gone from a 5.1 system or a good soundbar to a 2.1. I am particularly interested in opinions on downmixing performance for dialog and movies. Do you miss the impact of the extra channels? Does the downmixing have any noticable/weird side effects? And, most importantly, how is the dialog when you take out that center or soundbar? Should we just give up on watching Nolan movies if we go this way?
