Played them last night mostly Jazz and they are impressive. I really want the center, hopefully they will lower back the price. Reactions: KEW, Pogre and Danzilla31

I'm not a big fan of mounting on wall. I know it's safe, but don't trust TV to fall. I like my TV a certain way on a stand and it fits my needs. The AV on floor is more because no room for ventilation. No animals or kids, so no worries about it being on floor. I really love the way it looks now. Thank you for the compliments.

Would be great to share my setup, afterlife2, but currently I have all my devices in boxes. I have been doing over my room for quite a long time, and just can't get enough time to complete it.

I was actually looking for a cheap Turntable, but the one they had I didn't like, then I saw this beauty and asked the price and my mouth was wide open. I don't go to that one often, but its next to the grocery I shop at, so I said hmmm let's see. The table I got at another thrift furniture store.

That's a great find too. How do you find out about estate sales? Always see people go to them on here and other forums. That must be eye candy to us electronic nerds.

On this one, I was helping a friend transport some stuff cuz I had the truck, and happened to pick this up since I was there. You often see estate sales published in the classifieds of local newspapers, or even just signs on the side of the road. Reactions: afterlife2

afterlife2 Audioholic Warlord Oct 7, 2011 9,980 0 113 Dec 14, 2019 #178 Well I got lucky again today. I recently was looking for a Oppo SACD/DVD-A Player online for a couple of weeks, but even though they were reasonably priced I held back. Something told me to go to the thrift store today. I carried only $28 bucks. Well if I didn't see a Minty Denon sacd/dvd-a for 12.99!!! Holy moly I almost cried tears of joy. Of course after that I looked at the cds and found some good stuff as well: Last edited: Dec 14, 2019 Reactions: Alex2507, KEW and Pogre
