I  don't mean to be anal (ok, I do), but say you are correct. So how
would you properly say the following: "I can't live for a day without
this 'forum'", and then " I can't live for a day without visiting this
'forum'" ?

And more importantly, do you say it that way in everyday speach, or how
many poeple you hear doing it?

The sound stage will open up, bass will tighten and the imaging will
improve. DVD performance will also increase substantially.
