Nothing bad here, but I am working on something BIG, which has been mentioned privately to a few people, and won't know the outcome for another day or so. If I get everything, a major karma will be part of this, so wish me luck!!! B) the wishes will count as entry into the potential Karma

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Good luck sent your way !!! I did a good thing for somebody just a few weeks ago by trading him my loudest playing party speakers..DCM212's for polk rt70's I believe they are. The polks have powered subs inside and one tweeter and one 6 1/2 midrange. They are heavy and solid and have what looks like black real wood veneer. A week after I did the trade JUST to help him get what he had asked me about for years.... I was blessed to be able to purchase a BIG churches' older sound system. JBL PRO... speakers. 8 of them. 2-18" subs, 3-15" and a horn upper mains, and then 3 -12" and a horn midsize speakers. Only 2 of the midsize speakers have output issues which might be easy fixs. Anyway... I was Blessed back 20 times more than I had, by the Karma God, GOD for sure. Now to see how long my hearing lasts..:-(
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Ok in light of recent events, this is now in poor taste though it was not intended as such. Feel free to remove if any offense was taken.
