Happy Birthday!

Hoping you and the cat get better quickly Ric.

I was feeling frugal.

You mean besides the creepy image of a random skull ?

Chris that bike is gorgeous! I'm imagining you're not going to leave it unlocked, while you slip into the 7-11.

Everyone have a great and happy Thanksgiving!

And Dentists across America rejoice!

^ Funny, I don't remember making you one?

Big Jake's School of Medicine and Nail Salon. It's in the mall. Congrat CJ! Can't wait to hear...Dr. Crappy to the O.R. stat! Or...My Dr. is Crappy.

I proclaim that Dinny needs these... http://www.ebay.com/itm/EgglestonWorks-Andra-loudspeaker-14-900-00-Retail-on-Sale-One-on-life-time-/121021883353?pt=Speakers_Subwoofers&hash=item1c2d7763d9

Really, I mean how can you know anything without the ubiquitous 6000 hours of burn in?

Well exactly what did you do with a ho ho if you have no ding dong? They don't get paid for conversation!

At the risk of someone here slapping me, I have to say I'm quite impressed with this album.

Happy Birthday!

I love how heavy that transport is!

You mean it's not Dolly? Next thing you'll tell me that Sarah Lee doesn't own Sarah Lee, or Little Debbie doesn't...You get the idea.

Beautiful! How old is your starter? Mine is now 51 yrs. old. My Mom started it shortly after my birth.

That handle on top is a standard kitchen cabinet drawer pull. The rack is about 11.5" wide, about 13" tall and just over 10" deep.

To be honest a Bose Wave system is probably just fine for most older folks. It doesn't clutter a tabletop, and most elderly peeps will think it sounds great. Myself, I'd probably pick one of the other "all in one" options, maybe Tivoli, or even Cambridge Soundworks, as the Bose is way over priced.IMO.

It's approaching 50 lbs. I got to use my newish pocket screw jig for all the joinery. I really like pocket screw technology, as you don't have to wait for glue to dry. Ric, I didn't like the pre at all for about 10 minutes, until I figured out that I had the fixed-record outputs hooked up to the amps. Once I hooked the variable outputs up, it actually attenuated the volume. I didn't really need it (until I decided to buy a used Ztuner), but got a great deal on it used. In fact the only piece I purchased new was the Zdac. And the handle just seemed useful, as I can carry it to friends houses pretty easy.

That is cute.

This! Well this, but trade the F for a G.

I still need to finish sand, round edges and put a Lacquer finish on the rack, but you can get an idea of what I was attempting. I have some feet coming for the rack as well. They look like they'll match the feet of the Parasound gear pretty well. I was planning on Walnut, until I discovered I had more than enough Cherry. Looks can be deceiving, as this tower of smaller sized gear is damned heavy. These amps are no slouch, and yes I'm running my K1000s from two Zamps in bridged mode. No such thing as overkill. This desktop system powers both of my main speaker sets very well. I know a few are curious about the sound of the new Zdac. Well I'm just starting my listening, but first impressions are very good. Definitely has that Parasound house sound. This is better than I expected a sub $500.00 DAC to sound. Later I'll compare it to my Buffalo 32, but for now I'm just going to enjoy the beautiful, beautiful music.

I understand the job losses, but as far as the Twinkie goes, are we really that sad to see it go? I can certainly live just fine without them. But I do want Nabisco to bring back my fucking Bacon Thins and Twigs. You bastards!
