Not all of the mortgages have been walked away from. Not all are worthless. The idea was to have a reverse auction where the government would take the the low bid. Plus, once the government owns the paper they can adjust, reset, and otherwise modify them in order to get them performing. There has been a lot of rhetoric, and a lot of posturing, but not a lot of understanding of just what a "credit freeze" really does mean to main street. It is not about any certain institutions failing or not. It is about jumpstarting a system that is not functioning right now. There may be more than one way to do it, but it needs to be done.

Yes it's about time!

Paul was a true class act.

The moving from room to room idea sounds interesting, in lieu of a/b switching. I like it, sort of a progressive listening. Obviously the rooms will be as much of the evaluation as the speakers. This should be a lot of fun. I was thinking of bringing my barely if that trackable on the first track lp of Remain in Light by the Talking Heads, maybe my japanese pressing of Zappa's Apostrophe. The lp of TMonk and Coltrane live at Carnegie Hall? Any other suggestions?

It is looking like a real possibilty. Do you know lonelobo's plans? Maybe a pm or email is in order. Hoping to be there, it's always nice to learn something.

But you already know the answer.

hope you had a great one dtel.

Have a great day Amy!

The Salsawood looks familiar as a tropical. Weak wooded tree as I recall. Not that it would matter as a veneer.

Alright then. I won't tell ya.

I am also interested in silver barbed wire. It's the perfect thing for Texas. Did you know that regular barbed wire actually looks rusty after about fifty years? We are talking sterling and not just plate right?

Amen artto!

While I agree with most of what you say Colin, naked shorts (selling a stock you haven't borrowed) is just wrong.

What you need, young man, is to get yourself back into church. You know the one, the Church of the Sacred Tubed Monoblocks with Audiophile Finished Wood Stands.

You are clearly a heretic. []

You were, and you are. It's the only way to be!

I have always been curious about those too.

It's your choice. You can put in new and better parts with the same values and get like new original sound.

I'm also happy with my promedia 2.0's. You'll have to compare the two and see (hear) for yourself which is better.

So what do you mean by when and we? And who are you calling cantankerous? For me when would be now, aye me hearties? Now avast ye swabs!

but they were so snazzy JB!

The tube religion has spoken.

I think he sold the Porsche.

You sure everything's going to be ok down there by then?

Make sure the connections internally are good and that there is no obvious driver damage first before jumping to conclusions about crossovers. They will do no good if there is something more fundamentally wrong.
