After:
I will have to see if I have pics still, I wish I had the whole progression in albums, I guess it has been a strange trip in last 5 yrs, It just hit me how I really went serious when I became disabled, guess I needed to fill a void of some sort.
I am off the upgrade train for a year now, too many minute changes and diminished returns to keep fussing over it, my system isnt all that much but it sounds great, and a dedicated room for it all sent it to a whole new level. I took more pics of system and speakers without grills as requested and will post soon.......cheers
