  1. As for the remote speakers...How about using a couple of these as zone amps? They should have plenty of power for his needs, and if he sources the amps into/near the remote areas, the addition of a volume control could be quite handy. http://shop.emotiva.com/collections/amplifiers/products/a100 As for the 5.1 speaker system...If I were building one today, I would go pre/pro to active speakers. And I'd strongly consider the Emotiva Stealth 8 for Front LRC, and maybe Stealth 6 for rear or sides. Add an active sub and call it a day. http://shop.emotiva.com/collections/pro-series/products/stealth-8 http://shop.emotiva.com/collections/pro-series/products/stealth-6 http://www.outlawaudio.com/products/lfmEX.html http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=300-766 There is a plethora of pre/pro options to choose from, and I'm not that well versed on them, but I'd have to consider these two options closely... http://shop.emotiva.com/collections/processors/products/umc200 http://www.outlawaudio.com/products/975.html For the universal disc player w/DAC inputs, I'd have to consider the budget friendly Oppo 105-BDP... http://www.oppodigital.com/blu-ray-bdp-105/. I happen to really like the JVC QL-Y55F, and was actively looking for one a few years back. I also remember really liking the Dahlquist DQ-8's back in the day. Considering the JVC, I'd recommend the Parasound Zphono... http://www.parasound.com/ParasoundZ/zphono.php I really like the Harmony remotes... http://www.logitech.com/en-us/harmony-remotes
  2. After the "Catcoon" Adrian would laugh in the face of a mere Racoon.
  3. Any fans? I just watched season 1 on Netflicks, and am loving this show.
  4. Happy Birthday!
  5. Happy Belated Birthday!
  6. Dear God, you're right! What the hell am I saying?
  7. I'd recommend buying the Parasound ZDAC before spending more on a used 2000. I like the ZDAC at least as much as my old 1600, and it's new (likely to last longer), as well as the addition of a USB input. Smaller is not always less.
  8. Happy Birthday! 37 is the new 20.
  9. I could build you a step stool!
  10. The happiest of Happy Birthdays Tyll! Do something really fun today!
  11. RIP Denver. Sorry for the loss of a good friend and family member Mike!
  12. Ah, it's about time. That edging stuff can only be taken so far before one needs to eDACulate.
  13. Looks as though I'll be there Saturday. Will bring along a couple of friends. Will definitely stop by to see you Steve!
  14. Science is good!

    Gumby looks to be settling in nicely! BTW, I miss sitting on those deck chairs!
  16. Congrat on the new family members guys! Gumby is just what you and Debbie need Mike!
  17. How did I miss this? Happy belated Todd!!!
  18. I may attend Saturday. If so I'll drag my roommate Shaun along.
  19. Congrat!!!
  20. Happy Belated Birthday Antonio!
  21. Feel better Lloyd.
  22. Put together an aquarium stand. Shaun wanted to have an aquarium, but knows nothing of care and maintenance. I used to raise African Cichlids with pretty good results. So Shaun offered to fund the tank, if I would pick all the associated gear and fish, and maintain it. It's a relaxing hobby when you choose the right filter system/paraphernalia, so it should be fun to get back into.
  23. Probably so, as Chicken & Apple sausage seems to be a popular thing here. It was absolutely delicious though.
  24. Roasted vegetables with spicy Chicken & Parmesan sausage. I love that I now live in a place where I can find something like spicy Chicken & Parmesan sausage!
