My friend Dave Clark of Postive Feedback Online is also a teacher, and trying to raise money to buy cameras for his students to use (complete details in link). Long story short, they are still about $1000 short of what they need to make it happen - so my friend Christopher Sommovigo is offering his prototype Morpheus speaker jumpers for FREE with a minimum $35 donation to the cause. (you can send more than $35 if you are able)

And yes, your cancelled check IS your tax receipt. Help some kids, get some sweet jumpers, then write it all off - does it get any better?

Again, everything you need to know is in the link below. Thanks for your help!

Cheers,
Russ

    It's a no brainer really, assuming you have at least $35 to spare. Even if you don't have an immediate use, every good audiophile should have a pair of quality jumpers handy.

    Eh, I have nothing that can use the jumpers, except for the TSi 100's, which really wouldn't care if they had good quality jumpers or not.

    Edit: I just realized I don't even have checks anymore.

    I know this sounds stupid, but these are used to connect posts on bi-ampable speakers, correct?

    Yes, instead of the brass jumpers. It does mean that you can't use banana connectors though, only bare wire or spades.

    Mark, Chris is the guy that was right across the hall from us at CAF, he had the small black towers with ribbon tweeters and the digital media server.

    A really nice thing for him to do... really nice.

    As the father of a fairly serious photographer (masquerading as a mild-mannered math grad student) I am all for the cause, too... do I need any jumpers is the only remaining question!

    Oh... You need them!!! Even if you don't, it is a great cause to send $35 to. Get the jumpers and Karma them to someone else...

    No pressure, don't want to spam you guys, but this isn't an offer that's going to be around forever. Again, great cause, great product, for the price of taking your lunch to work for a couple days. Consider it.

    Thanks!
