    I have to state that there is a reason that I am no longer married.

    I wonder why :confused:;)

    The jury is still out on this one. Don't get me wrong....it is comfortable, but I guess my expectations were too high. Anyway, just got it in. Need to spend some "relax" time later this evening.

    The color is beautiful though ;)

    Wow Ric, that baby looks so comfortable that I would be afraid I would always fall asleep in it when listening to music!:eek:

    Very nice my good man!

    Right now what you can see in the edges of the picture are the RTA-15TL's. Breaking in the xovers.

    I spent some time last night listening in the new recliner. I fell asleep. I was tired, but I can say it is VERY comfortable. The thing is, I'm coming from a cozy recliner (posted earlier in this thread) and when I first sat on the new one it felt firmer, and maybe I initially associated that with less comfortable.

    Highly recommended! Just wait until it's on sale.

    Is that chair broken in yet Ricardo? You know that's where I'll be the entire time I am visiting next week.

    That turntable is long gone. I tried it, but vinyl is not for me.
