So, what at CES made you wet your panties and start evaluating what you might be able to sell in order to make it your own?;)

    Nothing really made me want to sell anything, as I'm pretty happy with everything at the moment. Naturally there was alot of stellar gear but I couldn't nail one thing down....too much stuff.

    Well, I digress....the Ray Kimber/Soundlab room was probably the SICKEST rig I've ever seen. I used Russman as scale, but imagine four of these, one in each corner of a 18x18 room.
    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.

    You'd have to live next door to a nuclear power plant with a dedicated line off of the number 1 reactor to keep those babies lit up. ;)

    Damn, Russ' head will barely fit through a normal door, for those you'd need a two car garage door to get em in.
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    I refuse to own a speaker that is bigger than me, better looking than me, sounds better than me, and is probably smarter than me.

    Be thankful you're not Danny DeVito, 'cause that would seriously limit your selection.
