    First answer nailed it. Has anyone heard a set like this? I have heard the Centaurus or whatever you call them but I had no idea that they had so many models, much less one that looked like the George Jetson version of the Carver Platinums. Beautiful speaker though!

    loudspeakers like this out there to be had.

    Nice home here folks. Good spellers. Well garage kind of sounds like that. Furnace is wrong too.

    Do you think the probable CO leaking in had anything to do with the spelling errors?

    aprazer402, you do construction work on older houses too? I've seen some that are a whole lot worse than that, although that one's a doozie!

    Appraisals, some brokerage. Will be 37 years this May. These photos are from a REO (foreclosure) last week. Just two more images of same house. Extensive cockroach infestation, all cabinets had same traps and glue boards. Basement has raw sewage on floor.
