Here I am on a Friday night, kids and wife asleep, and my sinuses and ears have finally cleared after being stuffed up for the last week. Guess what, no 2-ch system to listen too :cry:

Damn, why did I sell my preamp? I know why, really I do. However, its been two or three times now that I've had issues closing a deal on the integrated amp that I want (different sellers). I hate being in limbo with gear. Makes you make irrational decisions sometimes. That's what I get for setting my sights on a limited edition item with only 500 or so worldwide.

    I've got at least 5 other ways to listen to music in this house including 2 AVRs, and a respectable computer rig. Just not the same as the SS-M9.

    Guess I'll go watch a movie or something...

    While politically incorrect, I sometimes joke that poor people don't know what real problems are. Sorry, my apologies.

    I wasn't seriously suggesting this was any where near a real problem. It was a joking post.

    Yeah...some things just suck. The heat exchanger portion of my gas furnace bit the dust Wednesday night. Just got the replacement finished last night. Definitely blew the holiday budget. It was old...I knew it was due...but it still sucked... and I get to work this weekend... I think that sucks... and I am in such a better place this December than last December so that doesn't suck...
