    Count me in. Any of the LS speakers are heavy so I might only bring the 70's or the 90's.

    That looks like about 100 other cabinets with X brand drivers in them that you can become a distributor for at CES, from 50 different vendors. I'm suprised it took ED this long to figure all that out. Don't they have a pretty bad reputation in regards to customer support already? Just asking, based on what I've read historically from place to place. No slight on you Zingo but that's a brand I hope you get into cheap and don't expect a return on.
    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.

    Don't worry. I have no money into the situation; simply being sent a pair to review. :) This way, I can get many opinions on them. As far as their customer service goes, I hope you're not right.

    ... $5 a head will provide sodas/coffee/water, fruit/veggie trays, cheese/cracker trays, and shrimp. I thought that sounded like a good afternoon snack for a fair price.

    I just want to remind everyone that food will be costing $5 each, and I will need a head count by Feb. 12 to ensure the correct amount of food is ordered. That price will not include alcohol, but feel free to bring some to share if you are so inclined. :D

    Let's not say and just end up with 8 amps and nothing else. :D

    Here's what I'm thinking of bringing so far:
    Carver CT-28v pre and MV-5 cdp
    Monitor 7, 5, and/or 5jr+ (w/passive)
    maybe a Cambridge dvd89

    Anybody bringing any gear to sell or trade?
