    Cyrus CD8
    Prima Luna Prologue Two Intigrated Tube Amp
    Wharfedale Pacific PI-20 Speakers
    Analysis Plus Oval 2 Power cord plugged into wall
    Wireworld series 5 Power Cord powering Cd player

    Wireworld Power Bar
    Straightwire Rhapsody S Bi-wired speaker Cable

          Nice system, seems like a little bit of waste having those two series 5 cables running into a power bar. Time to run a new feed line to the panel, 10/3 cable with a 30 amp breaker. Small array of gold-plated receptacles and maybe a line conditioner.

                Thanks all! A&B Sound I remember those days. That power bar is all good. I know what you mean though. When we redoo that room and make it into a theater room we will be running direct power to the theater system and of course to the HiFi. It will be a pricey room but best one in the house.

                    Nice system CanadianBoy!!

                    As for other hobbies, I very recently got into R/C. Currently have a Traxxas Rustler XL-5. It's a 1/10 scale electric R/C off-road truck. I've had it out 3 times and broke something on 2 of those runs! Thankfully the after market is huge for this car and parts are cheap.

                    Here is a link to a thread I started: http://www.dazmode.com/_forum/showth...-Christmas-Toy!

                      R/C was fun. I tried it for a few years. I had a Traxxas T-Max 2.0 Nitro. Similar to what the Classic one looks like. I broke alot of stuff to. I had lots of aftermarket parts. I upgraded my chassis to a Titanium one, titanium rods that went through the upper and lower a-arms, had a tuned exhaust, many different bodies, upgraded shocks, tires and better foam in the tires, redid all the bearings with better sealed ones. The list goes on and on. Go out and buy yourself the biggest tackle box you can find to carry all your extra parts and tools with you and a tote to transport your truck. I found it was easier to transport it around. But my buddy couldnt afford to get into it so i sold it after 3 years. still wish I wouldnt have sold it. but now it seems like it has gotten more expensive to get onto it. maybe one day ill get back to it. It was a blast
