    120 + names in the hat? Better you than me on that drunken drawing night. A GRAND plus (retail) worth of gear? Hardcore, as the title states.

    Wow, period. All the forum members better recognize who's rollin' here....

    Cheers,

    OK, check this out! In a neverending quest to make this Karma awesome....and with the help of Hedy Klopfer (Inside Sales Account - Manager) and Jeff Nemec (VP - Product Development)....your NEW Karma subwoofer is a PSW125. The TOTL PSW subwoofer, minus the new wireless PSWi225.

    This is like $1200/MSRP worth of Karma folks. The new subwoofer eats PSW10's for breakfast.

    You only have a couple more days!!! This is freaking AWESOME!!!
    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.
