Thanks everybody.

All is well. Though I guess I was a bit spoiled by buying demos as I never had to break them in. Now these tweeters have to settle down a bit. Might take a while.

On a positive note, my Esoteric UX-1 just got back from TEAC America in CA. It was magically transformed into a UX-1pi. And a charge for $1,800 bucks magically appeared on my CC.....

So that system is now whole, done, complete, finito....yeah right, who am I kidding?

Hmm, what movie to test out the new video section.....

This sounds like another major selling point of PowerGuard. I've had close calls, too, but those little orange lights saved my ass more than once.

How about 'Red', a favorite from director Krzysztof Kieślowski. Great cinematography, sound, and emotion. If you don't mind a running translation beneath the film...

We actually have that series though I haven't broken it out of the shrink wrap yet. We have a friend who raves about it. He's never lead me astray when it comes to music and films. Has a nice pair of Sashas in his living room actually.

Anyway, Red it will be some evening soon. Sounds like one the wife might like.

But I wanted to watch something with my 7 year old on that system tonight. So it was Star Wars Episode 1. Total crap acting. But I'm sure it helped get those tweeters settled. We had a nice discussion about volume and amplification and speakers. I really love my kid. Stereos be darned.

Peace.
