realize it was your money to start with.
Reintarnation: Coming back to
life as a hillbilly.
Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid
people, that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The Bozone layer,
unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near
future.
Cashtration (n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the
subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of
time.
Giraffiti: Vandalism spray-painted very, very
high.
Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the
person who doesn't get it.
Inoculatte: To take coffee intravenously
when you are running late.
Hipatitis: Terminal
coolness.
Osteopornosis: A degenerate disease. (This one got extra
credit.)
Karmageddon: It's like, when everybody is sending off all
these really bad vibes, right? And then like, the Earth explodes and it's like,
a serious bummer.
Decafalon (n.): The grueling event of getting
through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
Glibido:
All talk and no action
Dopeler Effect: The tendency of stupid ideas to
seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
Arachnoleptic Fit (n.):
The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a
spider web.
Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito, that gets
into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast
out.
Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a worm in
the fruit you're eating.
Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and an
A-hole. -

The government today
announced that it is changing its symbol from an Eagle to a CONDOM, because it
more accurately reflects the government's political stance.... A condom allows
for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch
of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you're actually being
screwed!
Wow, it just doesn't get more accurate than that! -
just caught this one the other day, older movie, very original...excellent.

I just really like the way that looks , how does it sound standing by the amps ?
It's a different prospective behind the speakers, or a different way to hear the room if everything you hear is a reflection ?
**********************************************************
never thought of that, it's a unusual perspective.
some of the time, i listen with my back to the speakers, on the computer, etc. it's very similiar to that experience, it is hard to place where the mids originate when standing in front of the amps..bass is good though.

great looking dog, congrats[Y]!

you seemed to have done the requsite reading and research which is the first step.
the hard point is the transition from the preparation to decision and to pull the trigger, seems like you're ready.
take the plunge, if you like it, great, if not, sell the piece and try again. this really is the rewarding part of the hobby.

thanks sterling, there are many great looking systems here!

yes. i've tried and disposed of two different subs located between the left k and the rack. a little more grunt down low would be nice but not required as the illusion is almost perfect as it is....
How did you integrate them into the system?
Incorrectly, i'm sure. The lastest try was with a sub 12, set the crossover to about 50 hz if i remember correctly.
The bass is wasn't the issue, i just don't like running the signal through the extra crossover before it gets to the khorns, negatively affects mid bass, midrange and highs. It takes something off the mains that i can't deal with..

pretty good recovery, i'd say....
