I need one of these

TL880D ElectroVoice Cinema Subwoofer:

Big kinda stuff

Si alguna vez hubo un parlante sexy, éste es. 136 dB de presión de sonido (tan fuerte como una turbina de avión a 2 metros). Sólo 1 vatio para producir 99 dB. Exclusivamente para sonidos graves. Se usan en cines.

Necesito uno de estos.

Helicóptero, ¡hahahaa!

Yo sé que es malvado, pero me maté de risa cuando leí esto (lo gracioso en negritas):

Flying students go through similarly endless rounds of “engine out,” “engine on fire,” and other sorts of emergency procedures, ensuring that, later in life, should a true emergency arise, they will know exactly what to do.

This training becomes almost fanatical in the case of helicopter pilots, who have approximately three seconds to carry out a single, critical action in case of any hint of engine failure (lowering the “collective” control to cause the blades to autogyro). Failing to accomplish this task results in the helicopter taking on the aerodynamics of a set of car keys.

¡Hahahahahaa!
