I had really hoped they would stop with those flashbacks. They bore the hell out of me... I mean we know the background of the cast from the first season and now they should focus more on the island...

If they hadn't done the flash back we wouldn't have known the connection between Jack & Desmond.

Exactly. Also, they give us important insights into who these people really were before the crash. These people have changed very quickly and some very drastically since they've been on the island. Their survival instincts are kicking in, their hidden traits are coming forward, they are taking risks. All of this becomes even more engaging and meaningful when you see a flashback of Jack having basically no compassion for a woman that may be paralized from the waist down, and even as he transforms in the flashback just, he is shocked to find out the final outcome of the surgery, directly after AGAIN telling the woman there was no hope and he had failed (I'm trying not to spoil). Plus Desmond trying to explain to him that exactly what happened may be possible ;)

You know Jack eventually marries the woman he operated on, right? That was the topic of a flashback in the 1st season.

Hmm, I guess I had forgotten that part of the story :( No Matter, I assumed they got married later even though I must have missed that episode ;)

Man what a way to start off.? LOVE IT!

Can anyone figure out what Walt was saying?? It didnt make any sense at all to me.

The Walt thing is VERY freaky. The reason you can't understand him is because he is actually talking in reverse!

If you get what he says and reverse it, you can hear him say "Press the button. No button's bad"

This is very strange if you ask me... and the only button I can think of is the "Execute" button that Jack was about to press. If I can find the link to the wav file of Walt talking reversed, I'll post it here.

[EDIT: Here is the link with what Walt said but played in reverse. http://www.foxmod.com/lost/Walt.mp3 [/EDIT]

Does anybody have the "secret scene" that wasn't shown in the premiere? It was supposed to be shown during Good Morning America the next day.

Haven't watched it, but I think this is.

Yeah, that's it. It's kinda hard to hear though. It's Jack & Charlie talking about Kate going back to the hatch. Charlie says "maybe she wanted you to tell her not to go".

Correct me if I am wrong but I thought Jack was still married  :unsure: I thought that was why he really had not gone after Kate as much.....

That makes me think... aren't the relatives of the lost ones looking for them?

    • Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Edifier S3000MKII hi-fi audiophile grade bookshelf speaker is at its lowest price now by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered a bunch of Dolby Atmos soundbar deals with several ones from Sony, as well as from JBL, Samsung, Polk Audio, and more. You can check them out in this dedicated piece. Those are not audiophile category speakers though as they are built with home theater use in mind. If you are searching for the former then Edifier has its S3000MKII at its lowest price at the moment (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is a two-way bookshelf monitor speaker designed to produce accurate sound. While it may not produce the best high-fidelity audio possible out there, it should still be significantly better than what you will get on soundbars of this price range. As such it will do justice to high-res audio played back through it. The only thing that may feel lacking is sub-bass as Edifier claims the unit can go down to 38 Hz, which should be enough for studio monitor purposes, but not for deep room-shaking rumbling bass. Where this does excel though is in its treble reproduction. With its super-tweeter, it claims to go as high as 40 kHz in the frequency spectrum, which should offer a sense of "air"yness. This is an active speaker which means it packs its own amplfication. It has a top-notch Class D amp that may be able to rival many Class AB designs too in terms of sound reproduction quality. The technical specs of the Edifier S3000MKII are given in the table below: Specification Value RMS Output Power 256W RMS (Treble: 8W × 2, Mid-Low: 120W × 2) Tweeter Driver 107mm × 107mm Planar Magnetic Tweeter Mid-Low Driver 6.5-inch (179mm) Long-Throw Aluminum Diaphragm Driver Frequency Response 38Hz – 40kHz Signal-to-Noise Ratio ≥ 85dB (A) Bluetooth Version Bluetooth 5.0 Bluetooth Codec Qualcomm® aptX™ HD Wireless Speaker Link Proprietary 5.8GHz wireless connection between speakers Supported Hi-Res Audio Hi-Res Audio Certified, up to 24-bit/192kHz Digital Processing XMOS XU216 Digital Signal Processor Audio Inputs Balanced XLR, Optical, Coaxial, USB Type-B, Line In, Bluetooth Input Sensitivity (USB) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Optical) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Coaxial) 400 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Bluetooth) 450 ± 50mFFs Input Sensitivity (Balanced XLR) 1000 ± 50mV Input Sensitivity (Line In) 600 ± 50mV ADC Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DSP Capability Up to 24-bit/192kHz DIX Capability Up to 24-bit/216kHz DAC Capability Up to 32-bit/384kHz XMOS Processing Power Up to 2,000 MIPS Edifier S3000MKII Audiophile Active (Powered) Wireless Speakers: $799.99 (Sold by Edifier US, Shipped by Amazon US) If you do not have the kind of budget to spend on the S3000MKII, you can also check out the Edifier R1280Ts which is right now on sale at just $114 (its lowest price in a very long time).
