    Why have an ultimate HT when you can have an Ultament HT?

    What was the reserve price?

    Are they serious? Why is the equipment list restricted to those components if they're building-to-order?

    How much is shipping to have, essentially, a single-car garage trucked to your house?? Wonder if it'd balance on top of the car?

    I'd like to hear a couple of the "honey, guess what I bought" conversations.

    Hehe, hmmm...nothing I want more than to buy a $2,000+++ Ultament-Super-Duper-Audio-Video-Equipment-Toaster-Oven™.

    That things gotta be hell on heating/cooling. Not to mention the possible acoustic "surpises" from such a structure.

    Yeah...they coulda saved some construction costs on it by not 'insulting' it. It got plenty of that for free right here, not to mention at hometheaterforum and audiogon. :p

    What cracks me up is that they actually got bids on it. Goes to show , you can sell durn near anything on ebay if'n you got the right marketing strategy. These folks obviously got some schoolin' in them thar matters!
