There was a thread a few months ago where someone had just scored some RT2000Ps i think? Anyways, he had some pictures that he posted of his rack, it had three columns and a ton of nice gear in it. Wood rack, blue accent lights, had a bunch of Carver gear on it, couple of processors and such, etc etc etc...

I just spent an hour looking for it, and i can't find it. :(

Anybody else know what i'm talking about?

    the rack was three sections wide and 3 or 4 bays tall. Had Pine paneling, if that helps.
    I thought they were RT3000's though

    this one?

    Oh yeah that's right. You gotta thing for meters.:p I use to use mine with my old speakers. But since getting the Monitor 10's, I just run it in bypass so I can still see the pretty pretty lights. lol

    Although the more i read about this Samson... i might actually use it. My room is absolutely terrible, so this might actually be a good thing. Who knows... it's cheap enough that it won't hurt much to try.

    Guess i'll put it on the list after a DAC and jitter reduction unit. :D

    Just a hint: Try using the * wildcard. It helps in many cases, especially with shorter terms.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...

    as far as I can remember that parasound was pretty good as far as eq's go. it had multi colored lights and was just fun to watch. eq300 I think it was - paired up with a nad receiver that had gobs of power. hell that was over 20 yrs ago, wish I still had that rig

    That's awesome, my first thought when I saw the pics was "wow, nice setup" second was "ooh what's the thing with the pretty lights?"
    Thanks for the answer! now the quest begins to find a really cheap one... although 220-250 retail for new ones isn't really that bad at all.
