What I do is tape the shows onto a non-video tape, put on my headphones and
crank it up to ten. Sure, my headphones suck, my tapes are in mono (due to
the fact my tv is mono and I can only record in mono), but through all the
headphone distortion, it's the coolest thing since I first started my
extremist craze on SWAT Kats!
>For starters, the soundtrack totally rocks.
Tell us something we don't know? favourite music would be putting the whole
series down!
> Just listen to the flight sequence
Just listen to any part! It's cool wherever!

Low volume cuts it down. Make sure you're the only one home if you turn it
up. (and I mean WAY up!)

>*those*explosions*. With high volume stereo, it's like you're there, right in

If only movie theater style speakers could be turned up all the way on this
show........ (hee, he!)
