Beautiful !
That there will put you in the Christmas Spirit.
I miss putting one up.
Some never take them down.
I remember a picture of a forum members tree being 10' tall and as beautiful as yours a few years back.
Again, I miss putting one up !Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

Here you go John and others.
This is about all we do. Maybe a 4' fake tree inside but not this year yet.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
6 cats = no tree...ever

And if you did put up a tree, no expensive ornaments at all, right ?Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -
This is the new Nissan Cone. It runs on pine tar.

You.....good sir.....are near worthy of resident troll. I like your style.
Keep up the good work. -
Ours is up. Our 4 year old daughter had a blast decorating it. Needless to say most decorations are on the lower half of the tree and clumped together. We will be adjusting this shortly. On the other hand I have over 500 outdoor lights up.
I have added since. A reindeer and two snow men that light up.

We put out the white trees in our yard today. And a 4' lighted ( computer programed to twinkle all the lights randomly )wreath above the man-cave's porch. Maybe the inside will see some cheer soon too.
Then I just watched a little of Rudolph the stop action classic in-between Tucker Carlson's show.
So that cheered me up some more.
Oh yea, I had this station that plays all kinds of Christmas music for 25 days playing through my man-caves outdoor porch speakers. That was very nice ! They played some fine music and songs. Karen Carpenters' " Have yourself a merry little Christmas" was just one. What a pure voice !Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them. -

They'd all have to be "soft" ornaments, either fabric or unbreakable plastics, and NO lights. -

You did it more directly than I did, Tony, but our intent was the same. I hooked up some Amazon Echo DOTs to a few of these Bluetooth amps (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N8Q57FS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), with 705s near the tree and 703s in the kitchen. Then, with the annual unlimited Amazon music subscription, I have Christmas music (or any genre or song I want, voice-activated) playing within sight of the tree. Total cost about $175 per setup, since I already had the available speakers.

@Kurt300 , how do you like your SMSL? I haven't hooked mine up yet because I haven't finished the passive mod to the AE 5s for Caety's studio yet. But I've been itching to so the 4.6s might go in their place for a bit just to get things bumping for now.

The fence is to keep Jasper out of the tree.
I did some outdoor decorating this year too...

That fence wouldn't do jack against my kids (cats), you're lucky to have such a well behaved feline.SCompRacer wrote: »The fence is to keep Jasper out of the tree.

I was surprised how clean and full it sounds, at low to moderate volumes, even driving the 705s. It does run hot, so in an abundance of caution I placed both of them on some insulating material. -

Here are the night time picks of the outdoor trees and wreath.

Jasper is not well behaved. He will jump into the tree over the fence sometimes. Depends on his mood. He's a hybrid, nothing normal about him...lolSalk SoundScape 8's * Audio Research Reference 3 * Bottlehead Eros Phono * Park's Audio Budgie SUT * Krell KSA-250 * Harmonic Technology Pro 9+ * Signature Series Sonore Music Server w/Deux PS * Roon * Gustard R26 DAC / Singxer SU-6 DDC * Heavy Plinth Lenco L75 Idler Drive * AA MG-1 Linear Air Bearing Arm * AT33PTG/II & Denon 103R * Richard Gray 600S * NHT B-12d subs * GIK Acoustic Treatments * Sennheiser HD650 * -
Our goal is to have at least 2 Maine Coons, or Norwegians and a Serval/F1 Savanna or Occicat.
