No, but rumor has it that Jay may upgrade to a stack. If so, I'll be putting some caveats on the sale as to what 'assistants' need to be present while I'm aligning the sets. After all., there's nothing like having live models to 'adjust the fleshtones' to........Wink

You want me to be an assistant. I am touched. Twisted Evil

If Aaliyah is helping, then I would pay to watch that set up. Very Happy

I actually emailed him that, then apologized in person for being a complete dick for saying it. No question he's heard that more times than I've heard ;'well, if you want to give me a free G90'....

Jay's a super guy though, loved his place and he makes a KILLER tri-tip. Gotta try that when I get home...

Oops, yeah, I did. Sorry, all the nekkid babes... I had priorities...Very Happy

In Vegas now. A nice girl named Bambi befriended me on the strip, and said she'd show me around. Just gave her my credit card so she could go get a taxi. She said she'd be right back......Bahahahahahahahahahaha!

It's sad that Hooters Casino not only generally has fatties working the room (a couple of cute ones in there), but their main floor sound system is the worst I've ever heard in Vegas. All Bose speakers that should sound OK, but someone has killed all bass, and the high end is screeching.

YEah, I know, I should be gambling, but I spent my $2.00 on slots. Smile

Only Curt would go to Hooters (or a strip club) and comment on the sound system.... Mr. Green

It was great having Curt over Smile Tri-Tip, Cigars, and Scotch!

Curt tweaked my NEC 10PG that I got from Tinman.

We got together last minute so I didn't have any of my models here Wink Curt got to see a lot of images though. My house is covered with my artwork. Aaliyah was here Friday though Spanky;) We shot her for babes.com! (NSFW)

Nah, the Bose speakers are a great little sounding speaker, despite what the audiophiles say. Ive installed literally 100s of them over the years into hotels, there was something SERIOUSLY wrong with the way these ones were eqèd.

On a side note, I visited the Neon boneyard and the Exotic Car racing place in Vegas this morning. Have 100s of pix of the neon. Both are at the north end of Vegas, way off the strip. Both well worth going to, the neon tour is only $18. The countach around the track... quite a bit more. ( I didn`t race, I only took pix)

curt i had a old analog eg in my audio setup at the time so it made the speakers out to sound bad(didn't know till i got my infinty rs-5 speakers that it was in fact my eq) but i may try them again(once i refoam them(foam has dry rot)) and see if the overall has changed(id say it will be different)

by no means am i bashing bose speakers(i may get flamed for this) but some are good some are not(the factory ones in my caddy suck and no its not the radio so i swapped them out for infinity speakers)
