    DVD's and CD's are the only things their prices are competitive on, try not to waste your money on anything else from there that you could get somewhere else cheaper

    I'd get a DVD recorder, and if anything is left over, a pair of Celestion speakers (online only).

    Cheers,

    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Someone gave you a $550 certificate? Pretty nice....

    I'm into computers, too, so I could easily spend $550 between computers, games, CDs, car audio... etc....
    Ludicrous gibs!

    I would buy some Barry White, then proposition one of the prettier girls for a parking lot BJ, and film it with my camera glasses.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Mark:

    You define the word CLASS!

    However, I gotta agree with ya. Since I already have some Barry White in the collection, I'll push those extra dollars toward swaying the girl for a BJ.

    You all gave me some really great ideas and I took all suggestions seriously. Thanks fer playing!

    I am going with doro's suggestion.
    Next to music and all people and electronics that allow me to enjoy life...nothings better than a bj with Barry's blessing in the background.

    Doro...you are the winner of the "wtf should I get" post.

    Shoot me a message with your choice of CD and it will be in the mail! (after all, I have 550 free bucks to spend!) THAT, and the wife agreed not to charge me a thing!;)

    Brad

    Oh, one more thing. I will let you all know what I got when I get it. WITH a full review!! (Maytag doesn't have a forum)

    Ninerbj - Just PM'd this crazy man a couple times, and he's not kidding.

    I want to thank the public school system, my 7th grade teacher for introducing me to the words "Nice Rack" and my wife who I completely forgot about when I typed that whole statement....I will now be subjected to ball crushing and a full body wax. Peace!

    Ninerbj, thanks man, obviously you don't have to do this at all, but I look forward to your personal pick for audio, pick me a winner, and make sure it's not Jim Nabor's Greatest Hits....already have it :D

    Thought about it...but the mix is horrible!
    eg: 3rd track "the general lee drive in" you hear Daisey's moans coming from the center channel...that's all find and dandy, but the lyrics are clear to point out she is in the backseat!
    wrong I tell ya...just wrong!
