I have a silly number of Mannheim SteamRoller gift sets. (They contain a Sampler DVD and a blue ceramic mug suitable for soup or a really thirsty coffee drinker) Pictures will follow when I find out what my 5 year old did with the memory card for my camera... :rolleyes:

The DVD Sampler contains the following tracks:
"Joy to the World" from the christmas angel.
"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen (both Renaissance and Rock version) from Christmas live.
"The Big Bang" from Fresh Aire 8
"Teardrops, Raindrops" from Ambience - Summer Song
"Moonlight at Cove Castle" from The Home Theater Demo
"Fum, Fum, Fum" from Christmas Extrordinaire

It is a fun collection in 5.1 and it seems to make alot of use of the rear channels. It may not be everyones cup of tea, but it is fun and a little different (and free).

To enter the Karma, just reply with IN and describe your Home theater in one sentance or less.

Good luck - Drawings will be held this weekend - karma closes Friday Eve.

    Awesome karma. Manheim Steamroller rocks. It's about the only Christmas music I ever really enjoy.

    Not in, though.

    Great karma.

    In, please.

    My HT can best be described as a work-in-progress.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    In please.

    My HT system. . . exists in my dreams right now and will until we find that perfect home.

    PS: I love Ron-P's garage idea. My and my wife have seen some homes with really nice, big, clean garages and both have thought of making it an HT room.

    Great Karma
