    Default Getting ready for a big purchase

    For me at least. By the end of the weekend I intend to have my order put in on some BIG upgrades to the system. Been eying them for three weeks now and made up my mind. I just hope the Ikea 'rack' is up for the job of supporting them.

    I will share once the order is in and confirmed. I'm just thrilled beyond belief that I'm about ready to turn the corner. I've been searching for about 9 months for a solid upgrade while building funds and its all finally coming to a head.

    Wow, it took 9 months to find the Bose model you always wanted?






















    LOL sorry!
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Yes. Chinese. From a Canadian dealer. I'm OK with it actually. My budget was not where I would've liked it to have been for the products, but I think I ended up with a good product nonetheless, albeit Chinese.

    I'm guessing no since they cover shipping. You know, every little bit 'counts'.
