    I just got off the phone with Corey I will be getting my A31 by Friday I'm freaking pumped. I was wondering if any of you guys will open your doors to a polkie and his Parasound Halo once the wife boots me out.

    Just tell her it's mine. Just like last time. That should give you a couple of weeks before she figures it out.
    Then you and the Halo can come stay at my place.

    Not going to work Russ she's still asking when your picking up your Vincent and Clearaudio. I will have to face the heat, I'm taking her to Frakies Pub tonight get a couple of beers in her and tell her. I think she will now the difference between the Parasound and all my silver Technics stuff.

    Good call Steve. As much as I liked that 5503, the Parasound is a big leap forward.

    And remember, you're always welcome to rent the basement if the Fraulein comes uncorked. ;)

    The wife says I do err, I mean she let out a sigh and rolled her eyes and said whatever and hasn't talked to me since so I guess I'm good. The bad news is Light man is banned from the homestead sorry dude :o I just tracked the package it's already departed Chicago and is in route I will probably see it tomorrow.

    Go get it...I love my silver Halo A51and I never regretted getting it (despite it costing me a arm and a leg). I believe it is the only piece of gear in my rig that if it was to break I would be devastated! Black, silver, who cares the color.
    You know you want it, don't regret not getting it!!

    When I saw Skip's new thread, I thought it was titled "New Home IN the Horizon" and I thought it was a gofundme for Steve's new home after he shared the Parasound news with the misses. Of course, I clicked to throw a few bucks into the pot.
