    If you cut back on the beer you'll spend more time listening to music and looking around online, and poof, you're buying some rare, pricey beer that has to be stored in ideal conditions so you'll need to get some precision refrigeration equipment, then there goes a few more grand.

    The S5s shipped today, so they should be here by next Friday, or shortly after, since they are coming from Florida. Soon work will be done, and I can have some beer, but no more purchases! At least not tonight. :smile:

    Today should be install day. They arrived Monday. Unfortunately, tonight is Poker Night, so I will not be able to dedicate the night to listening. Hopefully, tomorrow night will be okay.

    Congrats!

    More pics please!

    H9: If you don't trust what you are hearing, then maybe you need to be less invested in a hobby which all the pleasure comes from listening to music.

    Pics coming. Right now I am in listening mode, and this is amazing. There is no effort making music with the Pass/Magico combination. Now I am playing random rock with the SPL in the low 90s, and the sound is there in place, but from nowhere specific.
