Well smell or not that chair looks so comfy. When you say it stinks.. Is it that smell kinda like a cheap dollar store? Kinda a gaggin smell?

Thanks for all the details. I'm ready to build my own drivers but need to research a bit more.

Believe it or not, it smells like diesel fuel. lol like actual diesel fuel not after it's been burned.

hahaha, that is hilarious. i keep hoping my really cheap office depot fake leather chair will break or something so i can get the one you have, but that diesel fuel smell just cracks me up.

btw, rev, you satisifed with your klipsch synergy towers? were you going to sell them after you get your B&W's ?

I was actually gonna ask the same thing about selling those towers but didnt want to try to ship them.

I love them and yeah they will be sold, but you gotta understand there is no comparing $960 towers to $2600 bookshelfs, the image and dynamics are on a whole different level, but for $960 even for under $1500 I think they are amazing. I bought the speakers before I did all the component upgrading, so now the bottleneck is the speakers. I ran them on a old Pioneer 100w amp when I first got them, and they sounded pretty dang good even then.

The hard part is gonna be trying to sell them.

Finally!!!! i've used a imac g3 since my g4 tower broke for 11 months waiting for my mb. The wait was worth it.

At VAGRANT PISTOL:
What do you use to hold the Samsung monitor like that? I am currnetly thinking of investing in a setup (Almost exactly) much like what you have.

I use the Neo- Flex by Ergotron. It works really well. They have other really kool arms and podiums for laptops. They even have podium and lcd arm combos.

 

[Vagrant Pistol]

where did you get that cool looking tape dispenser?

LMAO! I needed tape so I took it from my mom dukes.

 

[Vagrant Pistol]

It's a zune!

It's a Sharp Aquos 32". I bought it at Ultimate Electronics for $902 after tax. I love it, but I came from a $125 Tube so it's a pretty big step up. It has a VGA input so it works really nice for my MB's monitor.

It's a writing pad, so I don't scratch the desk when writing. The desk was from IKEA. Too a few hours to assemble...lol.

What do you use the 2 G4s for?

 

[RevToTheRedline]

What do you use the 2 G4s for?

Those look like G3 PowerMacs to me. Backed up by his signature saying they are.

I only use one but have the other has a backup and am possibly trading one for an iMac G3 slot drive. And yes they are G3s as the person said before me It looks cool though. haha
