    Very, very nice! Man, if I could have started out with the gear you have at your age when I was young, I could be in debtor's prison by now. :D

    Rock on, Trey!

    Thanks everybody for the comments. I am glad you all like it...

    The TV stand, for whatever reason really helped the soundstaging in my room in the center - although it made it slightly brighter, kind of odd...

    Yeah, it is nice to have Polks been in the line up - while their stance there may be short lived, I am really looking forwards to the Tylers...

    As far as the Pickle Barrel ;) - I hope to get a Oak Box in here eventually ;)

    Thanks again... and thanks for the TV stand comments - Im really digging it...

    Looks good. I'm glad the audio bug hadn't bitten me at your age. I'd probably be much worse than I am now.:)

    Trey got bitten a little earlier than I had. I think I got bitten around 20... he got bitten around 16-ish.

    Im 17 now...

    I got bit at 12

    Thanks everyone.

    Honestly, I dont know how to explain it...

    I guess since I was 12 - Ive kind of gone through this merry-go-round with speakers, all that were of similar caliber and all had different but equal traits...

    The RT35i, RT5, RTi70 (yuck), BP10B, BP6B, DM 303, RT55, Behringers - all of these speakers have been on a fairly equal playing field, all things considered...

    And Ive always wanted more, so while this current setup I have sounds good - I dont really enjoy listening to it all that much...

    I really want my Tylers, the Candela, the PB 12 Ultra, the Jolida CDP, the 55" TV, the all out cable setup - because Im tired of ****-footing around with this audio BS...

    So while this is possibly one of the best setups Ive ever had as of right now in some aspects, its the most dissapointing to me at the same time...

    So many expecations of whats coming and this setup just isnt delivering what I want to hear ya know? Kind of odd...
