    Doro, that was a great fun karma. Congrats to you doc.what goes around comes around.

    Looking forward to the answers too. I didn't know 3/4 or more of them so I didn't even try to answer them all.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    It's already Saturday so I better get this started. I spoke with Mark and I can't express my gratitude in words; I'm speechless.

    I will say, that this hobby tends to get one focused in the other direction sometimes, mired in the gear if you will; at least I have been due to some attempted mods and system changes as of late.

    Last night I came home before the rest of the family and realized the stereo hadn't been on in 3 days (my wife is very pregnant and we have 3 year old so busy...busy)....anyway, I put something on and it just sounded so good. Tired as I was, I started puttering around the house, motivated, and started making dinner, and cracked a cold one. A great start to a Friday night. Then I got a PM from Mark.

    I'm on KARMA-OVERLOAD so I need to vent:

    Sunday 12AM is the deadline for this extended KARMA-THON. My 3 year old will draw from a hat, and the chosen will receive a pair of Telefunken 12AX7 ribbed plates that test NOS. I know not all of you can use tubes (but you should ; ) so this name brand will allow to trade or give away to a friend etc.

    HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Let's all take a moment to recognize Mark AND Polk for their generous contribution.

    P.S. Apparently none of you saw the fine print, but Mark has informed me that Polk will be stopping by in Jan. to brand our new daughter with a Polk bar-code!
