    Next weekend, Russ and I are headed down to Kansas City for a home theater crawl. We will be back on Sunday afternoon and I have Monday off.

    He is flying in though so I don't think he will be able to claim them as carry-on. Hehe

    Its only two carry on items. Reminds me of one of my favorite bad jokes. Why couldn't the Vulture board his flight with three dead squirrels? Because there was a two carrion limit.

    The only whole I'd end up in is all of 6 feet deep lol....

    @lightman1 was trying to squarely push me into it with my wife most of the day lol....

    The only consolation I have is that given his transientness (yes its a word... I said it so I made it one), I get to "babysit" these babys for a few weeks.....

    So I will be rearranging my rack to accomidate them tomorrow and ensuring the kids cant get back there to screw with them at all.....

    This thread got me to fire up some tubes this weekend. It's nice to get them in the loop again.

    Dayuum! That is pretty!
    Yeppers.....Even at low (wife respectable) volumes, the Usher bookies were pretty dang accurate with these. Nothing harsh or overbearing. Nice layers of sound were presented, no muddiness in the bass. Mids were nice and layered and highs eased into the mix without a hint of harshness......


    And Sky was a one person mosh pit :D
