well here we go, post number one....
you realize how intimidating this place is with its huge pool of knowledge

Anyway, hello from a very wet NZ, we've had 3 weeks of storms, high winds and rain to keep us indoors of late, ok me, I'm 43 married 2 teenagers

self employed and have had an audio interest since I was a kid. I'll blame the old man for introducing me to James Last and others.

So the system has changed from 2 channel to prologic then DTS/AC3, BlueRay must be next, speakers have changed, amps changed and added, I'm nearly happy with it, EQ could also be on the list
