No, I still have a Reference Center (I think) and three Due speakers from back in the day when I had the Gallo 3s. My plan is to use the Center and two Dues or just three Dues if I somehow managed to sell the Center after I got the Stradas in SF.
Thanks Jim, that settles it. I signed up for notification the other day and I will get one as soon as it is available. This resolves my Mayberry family room dilemma without getting a new pre/pro or using an outdated one. I already have the 5-channel McCormack amp, so I will plug the Comcast output into the Oppo and use it to select source and control volume to the amp. Should be sweet and the headphone output will be nice for games or late night TV. Good timing given that I am about to mount the TV and Gallo speakers finally.
So, you want to hear more of the artificial "soundstage" of electronic music soundtracks? I suggest Astral Hangers from http://www.coconut-a....com/index.html
Thanks team, but I went ahead and ordered from Amazon with the least amount of shipping cost I could but still more than I wished. Oh well, the kid needs spoiling every once in awhile.
Sorry to hear that Ken. I'm sure your kitteh has had a great life with you, and it is always hard to let go.
I guess I have to agree that the momentum seems to be lost on this event, and I am sad to lose Shelly as well. Not sure if Marc is focused on the thread, but I will PM him and maybe give him a call.
How do we know it has preamp capabilities, i.e., volume control? I will buy the 105 if I can plug the cable box into it and have the multichannel audio output go directly to a multichannel amp without a pre/pro in the middle.
The boy wants to be Dr. Horrible for Halloween and of course waited until now to figure out the costume. The "Howie" lab coat below is the preferred style, although buttons would be even better than snaps apparently, but to get it in time will be over $100 of shipping. Any of you scientific type 'Casers have access to such a coat that you could FedEx to me? Willing to pay but thinking that $100+ for shipping is a bit much. Let me know if you can help. Thanks.
Apple screws customers every few months but it is unclear why they would release the iPad3 when they knew it would be obsoleted in 5-6 months.
And Mike, the iPad Mini has the A5 chip, but the new iPad4 has the A6X.
As promised, I went to the last of three elimination games and watched the Gigantes destroy the St. Lousi DeadBirds. Sorry Hubby Tim, but this year it ain't happening. World Series at home starts Wednesday. GO GIANTS!
