My latest addition, which will be the last for a little while: KEF R200C center speaker.

I had bought the R500 about a month ago and had to wait until last week to order the matching R200C from my dealer. It took a week & a day to come in and I picked it up yesterday, installed today and will calibrate tomorrow.

With just "plug & play" it's a HUGE improvement over the Bic Venturi DV62CLR-S that my son had put there on "permanent loan." The difference in clarity of speech and the difference in playing Eric Clapton's Crossroads DVD, it's just unreal. I am very happy today!
 
Nice speakers KenM10759. I want to get some new speakers one day but will have to wait as more important things are needed first. But, I buy a PS4, an early Christmas gift to myself.
 
I bought myself a new 500GB SSD that arrived this week, and maybe I'll get it installed today. My Mac Mini keeps running out of space, so it was time to add a bit more.

I also bought a new pair of jeans. This past week was a wild ride...

Better hop off the outlaw train before you get us all arrested. You are out of control.

Wouldn't it be strange if human babies were born with adult-sized hands and feet! :eek::D

It's so true, Millhouse was the biggest of the litter, playful, but knows not to bite hard and is a little machine in 30 minute spurts and 2-3 hour naps. His paws are almost as big as the palms of my hands at 9 weeks old.

Rare color for an English Bulldog, but I love the black, white with the brown eyebrows :) Just clipped those dagger nails, so he is a happy little dude.

I purchased a package of tacks with white heads to use for marking speaker position.

Sadly, there seems to be no change in sound quality. Perhaps the tacks need to burn-in.

How does KEF sound compared to Bostons ?? Has any1 tried both with same source and reciever?
Too bad i bought the entry level bostons , because of my budget constraint.

Once i start earning i will definately get the higher end model of the popular brands such as Kef , Bostons or Qacoustics.
 
I just remembered i replaced my old Sammy Blu ray which was too slow to load with the new Sony Blu ray "SONY BDP-S5500" . This little baby plays all the formats u throw at it, including DTS HD , Dolbys , Flacs , aac etc.

Just got this today. It's a gently used Marantz NR1504. only thing I'm missing is a hard copy manual and the setup mic (which I wasn't going to use anyway).

I'm thinking about getting another 500GB 850 Evo from Newegg. I got mine at $153, and now they are $135. Not bad at all.


SSD prices have taken a significant drop, that's impressive.
