    New speakers!

    I'm getting a pair of 40,000 Sonus faber Stradivari. I'll move my Extremas to the rears.



    Planning to drive them with Mark Levinson full bore 33's. Used, can't get new now.

    It's been a while since I upgraded much. It's time... I'm going to go ahead and build a 100K new listening room too.

      Sounds like a plan Doug...but I think your budget for the listening room seems a little low for speakers of this magnitude

        Shane doubts my intentions? Others have doubted me in the past. Where are they now?

        Maybe Andrew. But I don't want to take my house to far out of the price of others in the neighborhood. Oh, what the hell, I may find me a new neighborhood.

            Either this is an April Fool's joke, or Doug stumbled into a great deal or a big bag of $100 bills.

                Not again, will this thread be valid tomorrow?

                They certainly are beautiful, though.

                  I guess it goes to show how lucrative the cable business is. :roll:

                  Or is it all just because it is April 1st ??? :wink:

                      ok, it's April 1. I had to have a little fun. 170K on my system. Yeah, lololol. I wish!

                      Doug, with the help of good customers like you (cuda65), it may be that good some day on volume.
