    yeah Trey, tickle those digits...
    I think Soul Asylum spoke for Klaus when they sang:

    Yeah, I'm waiting by the phone
    waiting for you to call me up
    and tell me I'm not alone

    btw Carl... I bought a Blackberry for the Kraken this Christmas and he hasn't even taken it out of the package yet, if that doesn't tell you something.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    The Kraken doesn't need a Blackberry, everyone listens when he has something to say and they pay attention when he's coming:D

    It would appear that he needs the Krakenberry 2000 with the QWERTYQWERTYQWERTYQWERTY keyboard.

    My wife calls mine the "Crackberry" as I am addicted to it.

    According to Klaus's messageboards, that preamp will be selling for around $1K. He had originally stated that it would run $850 but discovered he would lose money. His then quoted $1K. As of Oct 1, 2006 he upped the price to $1200. Here is his exact quote:

    Now you have your ballpark number and do not even have to call.

    :D

    I've heard enough threads on other forums about his handling of CS to really not give a shite about the product, no thanks. YMMV.
    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.

    And where am I supposed to get that kind of coin Blue?:D

    Carl -- Sure everyone listens to the Kraken, but do they hear what he's sayin'?
