It has been a few since I had the Rig up and running on a steady basis, and I gotta say.....I dig my 9`s all over again !

The tubes have been Hot all week, and the AQ Bedrock speaker cables are breaking in nicely...

She really sounds smooth and tight....

I have to be careful not to cruise AudioGon though...
I have an empty wallet, and those of you who know me, know that I have an audio addiction....I need to clear out a few more things before I even consider purchasing anything !!

Time to just kick it and enjoy what I have for awhile...

Even though I would like to try out a tri vista CDP, or something along those lines !!:rolleyes:

I think I will try some tweaks out first...any thoughts ?

    Glad you're still enjoying those 9's and the Bedrocks (esp. since I sold them to ya, IIRC).

    I may catch hell for saying this, but if you're getting the upgrade bug again, try another set of speakers.

    I thought about that...I just don`t know where to go from here , as I have never owned anything other than Polk ...

    And Thanks again for the killer deal on the speaks....the way it went down, it was meant to be , I think !!

    Matter of fact you also sold me my first seperate amp...remember the Rotel ?


    Thanks again bro !!!

    I wouldn't want to take your fun away, and I surely wouldn't want to commit someone else’s time to it, but what is Jesse up to lately? He has the formula....:D
