I would also suggest having a good read around the "Dedicated Theater Design & Construction" area over at AVS Forum -- where there are many, many chronicles of garage-to-HT conversion projects that should help you ID and avoid some of the more common pitfalls of the design phase.

He's a very interesting-looking felloALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOCAT!

Could you pickle me in it, like Nelson? I rather fancy that.

Try using it in a sentence. Like, say: You're an epic tool.

Built a fairly epic snowman.

As a kept man, my negotiating leverage is somewhat limited. I settled for a nooner.

I built two separate and rather spiffy home theater systems this year and hardly ever watch or play anything on either of them.

Happy Birthday!

Free your minds from the shackles of audiotheism. No (gear) fate but what we make!

6HP, 24" Ariens snowblower.

Some spiffy new UPOCC speaker cables.

No apologies necessary. It's like Mel Brooks said: "Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die."

If someone had been sitting on that can, the coroner would have taken lots!

According to APC, they are unopened returns and carry the standard 5-year warranty, so I can't see too much cause for concern.

This is clearly the season in New England for things to become over-encumbered, fall down and break other -- quite important -- things. My wife had apparently gradually accumulated so much cosmetic and pharmacological shit in our (large) medicine cabinet that it finally tore off the wall today and exploded on the floor. I use that word advisedly -- I was in the basement at the time and I thought a plane had hit the fucking house. It also managed to take out the toilet, straight across the s-bend. Clean-up was a real treat and as I was gloomily inventorying all the new things we need (storage, tiles, throne etc.) the unrepentant perp further improved my mood by saying: "I hate this bathroom. Call the builders after Christmas and let's get it completely redone!"

Maybe clothes next? It'll be getting pretty cold soon.

Damn that's a good deal! I am severely tempted to buy another one at that price. Such a good, no-BS unit. Was it direct from APC, Pete?

I'm finally on the mend. That was like a truly epic hangover -- lasting five days. Now my wife is taking the ride.

Yeah, got it bad right now. This one is nasty, haven't felt this shitty in years.

You will be cleansed in the holy fire.

Got really sick really suddenly. Fever, dizziness, muscle pains, migraine. I feel like a pig shat in my head. Hoping against hope I haven't already given whatever it is to the kids, 'cause that will be a horror show. Also, thank you God for TV and its emergency childminding abilities. Poor poor pitiful me etc.
