(Harprise = surprise, that's how my 3y old Emma says it).

And man, do I love my wife.

She was SO excited to finally reveal the cake... I was so happy.

Enjoy BW fans.

great story, thanks for sharing

It was mostly because of the great deal I got on the P5, otherwise the P10 or the AQ Niagara 7000 would have been ideal.

That said, the Boulder is plugged to the wall, it would destroy the P5.

Atleast my upstreams are all consolidated into the P5, and they're protected from surges other than a direct lightning strike.

You are a very fortunate individual Joey to have a family that enjoys your passion with audio. Life is a gift, enjoy every sandwich.

That's a good point. There only way to protect from lightning is to physically disconnect from the mains. Simply switching off, even at the mains switch, doesn't offer protection from lightning.

eljr,

Your PhotoBucket images show up as error messages to me. I think it has something to do with how PhotoBucket is charging.
