Hey, I had the space in the rack, it comes with rack ears, it matches Emo gear and my old one was inadequate at best. What was I supposed to do?

It looks like everybody is putting lit blue circles on everything these days. Look what Wall-e started.

I hooked up the new B&W's on Saturday. I had to use a flexbit to drill a pilot hole within the sheetrock wall through the floor. I then drilled the larger holes from the crawlspace. This was so that I could run the new cables from Nezff. Everything is hooked up. I was going to doing some experimentation with bi-wire versus bi-amp but pulling out the two xpa-2's is a chore and they have all sorts of gear on them so I decided to go with the bi-wire as recommended by B&W and put the XPA-2 into bridged mode so one XPA-2 per speaker. You can see how I stacked the bananas easily with the new cable from Nezff
Front View - Umm, my wife thinks the mid-range naked looks like monsters eyes so I have the grill on. ;D Small concession. The 802's are bigger than I thought so I am having a new corner shelf custom made in antique cherry that the vase will go on and the right speaker will slide back a bit.
A closer shot of Papa Bear. I need to learn how to press the camera button without moving the camera. Jeesh.

Thanks everyone. I have been gardening like a banshee and had 140 bags of mulch delivered (not so exicting to post picks of the task at hand). I will post picks once i am done. I love it here and having a pier in the backyard for my sailboat is the cherry on top, as I waddle down the steps throw the lines, crank the diesel, putter to open water, rip the sails, crack a beer, and show all my teeth. It is not for everyone but it is for me. ;D

I don't know anything about sailing, but you make it sound wonderful lol. Sounds like you've got quite the life, Reg. Well done my friend.

If only we all could be so lucky as to be happy with what we have and where we're at. You are rich in the most important sence of the word. Not many people get to live their dream so enjoy it as much as you can.

Bring the sailboat by and pick me up Reg........the creek gets a little shallow by the time it gets to my backyard, so be careful ;-)

rich im just throwing it out there man, i seriously wouldnt put cut springs on a brand new car.. get c/o's I'm only trimmimg 1/4 coil from the fronts to get a slight rake. The Eibachs only lower the car 1" and it either sits flat or slightly lower (3/16") in the rear. The car has Mag Ride so I have to be careful with the minimum drop and I can't use coilovers or I would. Trust me, it has been highly researched unlike like some of my younger friends chopping their factory springs and pogoing down the street. ;-)

I bet I can tear some stuff up with this little toy Curiously I just got (2 weeks ago) a (they are now lime green over here, not blue) Ryobi cordless driver, but the damn battery turned out to be out of stock, so it is sitting here USELESS for another week or so.

Not a bad phone so far: Hi Rich, You pretty much research all your product investments as do I and I am waiting till the September release of the iphone 5 which has 32GB standard, dual carrier(AT&T or Verizon), dual processor, and other nice things with maybe a qwerty keyboard ( some design features still hush hush). Were you aware? Anyway great phone and I am with you on the daughter/smartphone strategy. I got one for my daughter too. I really think these devices are going to be the standard where we will just plug into larger displays depending where we are. I really want her to get experienced on the apps. I had her research the academic apps and download at least 6 for her school. She choose some good ones for French, Chemistry and Math. Good stuff though.
