What kind of audio setup do you have for your retro games? Amps and speakers?

I've got a Sansui 5000a connexted to a pair of Polk Monitor 70s. It's a great setup for retro sound/music, but the Polks are very sensitive so I can hear the buzz from old audio chips and questionable capacitors.

Play Famicom games on NES?
I heard Pat the NES Punk talk about these Honeybee things and I was wondering whether or not I should pick one up. I want to start collecting Famicom games but dont want to import some yellow'd famicom. I know you can find converters in some Gyromites but I know those can be rare and expensive, what do you guys think?

So any developments on this? Heard it was debunked.

How do I play TES: Arena on a 64 bit computer without lag?

I've tried using DOSbox, but it runs extremely slow.

>can't stand RPGs
>always get bored of them after an hour or two and go years without touching them before repeating the cycle
Am I just dumb? I thought I'd matured enough to appreciate a slower-paced game, but I guess not. The only strict RPGs (by which I mean top-down games with no actual action) I've ever enjoyed were the original Pokemon and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for GBC. I feel like I'm missing out on a lot of good games, I've been trying to play Final Fantasy IV for a year now and I'm only 3 hours in because I get bored out of my skull after a bit of playing.

I've been looking for a good emulating device and I ran across pic related (jxd s7800b). From what I've read, it does a great job emulating things up to PS1, but then the N64 and Dreamcast things are a little iffy.

Last time I made a thread about emulation, I asked about the Retron 5 and got called out for apparently working for the company. Some of the few serious posters recommended a PSP for emulation. I looked at emulation on the PSP and the screen just seems so small. The Jdx's screen is bigger than the Wii U's, so it should work out fine.

I have a chance to get one for like 100 bucks, so I'm wondering if it's a good deal. Also, I know jack shit about emulation programs, so where do I go to get the games for the emulator and are there any recommended updates?

Just visited romdepot.com everyone who called this guy a shill was correct. This is his current privacy policy.
