Hi all,
is there a faq for this newgroup? I can only find one for car audio.

Not as far as I know.

I'm just learning about audio (speaker, surround sound, etc) and have a
bunch of questions.

Just ask 'em - I'm sure there are enough true 'audio enthusiasts' left in
here to give you an answer.....

Not specifically for this newsgroup, but there is an audio faq which relates
more to the US based rec.audio groups:
